Three ways to check a food, not one. • The first food check was a search box and nothing else. You can now scan the bag, search by name, or see a worked example when the bag isn't in front of you. • Turning the camera down, or scanning something the catalogue doesn't carry yet, no longer ends the screen. Each one offers a way forward. • The species picker fills the space it sits in, so the first screen reads the same on an SE as on a Pro Max.

Warnings say each thing once. • When a label spells one ingredient two ways — "Chicken" and "Chicken Broth" are both chicken — the same allergen warning appeared twice, and counted against the food twice. Now: one ingredient, one warning. • Cards, chips and fields look the same on every screen. The app had drifted into two visual languages, and some surfaces sat on a grey that fought the background behind them. • Setting up is friendlier. Choose your dog or cat by tapping one, and pick a first food from the brand grid without a keyboard covering it. • A Done button above the keyboard, so a text field can't leave you stuck on a setup screen.

Scores are numbers now. • Every result shows its score out of 100 beside the rating, so a 78 and a 92 no longer both just say "Excellent". • Saved scans show the allergens they found. If a food conflicted with your pet's profile, that warning was being dropped once the scan reached History. It isn't any more. Thanks for using PetScans!

Every ingredient now explains itself. • Tap any ingredient to see what it actually is, why it's in the food, and what to watch for — including the hundreds that used to open an empty sheet. • Searching by brand works properly now. Type "purina" and you get Purina foods first, instead of whichever product happened to have the shortest name. • Over 30,000 dog and cat foods are built into the app, up from 20,000. • Sharper ingredient matching, so more foods score correctly on the first scan. • A safety warning now looks the same everywhere it appears, so an ingredient can't seem riskier on one screen than another. Thanks for using PetScans!

See PetScans work before you finish setup. • During onboarding you can now search your own pet's foods and see them scored right away — so the app proves itself before you're done setting up. • Set up what to avoid — grains, chicken, common allergens, and more — once, and PetScans now applies those groups everywhere it scores, not just on a single scan. • Fixed a score card that could slide sideways off the screen when a product had a very long ingredient name. • Sharper ingredient matching, so more foods score correctly on the first scan. Thanks for using PetScans!

Scanning is instant now. • Over 10,000 popular pet foods are built into the app, so most barcodes score the moment you scan them — no waiting on a lookup. • PetScans opens much faster, especially the first time you launch it after installing. • Sharing a scan now produces a proper score card you can actually send to someone, instead of a wall of text. • Fixed a handful of first-run problems, including choosing what to avoid during setup and the camera permission prompt.
