A fixes release, plus one small thing to chase. Fixed: editing a review could delete your opening line. If the first line of your review started with a short word and a dash or colon, like "Wow - best beef ever", saving an edit quietly removed it. The edit screen now only clears lines that are actually metrics. Fixed: changing your password from the Security tab was being refused. It goes through now. Metrics typed the way people actually type them, with a bullet in front or a dash instead of a colon, now show as metrics on the review page instead of staying in the text. WAGL and S&S are read properly too. New: the all-time App MVB leader gets a gem next to their name everywhere it shows up.

The whole app got a new coat of paint, and then a second pass over everything the first one missed. Type NSB's own typeface now runs through the app instead of whatever font your phone defaults to. Scores, stats and standings are set in the mono face they were always supposed to use - until now that font was never actually included in the app, so every number outside Champions Hub quietly fell back to your system font. The app finally matches the cards you share out of it. Color themes Ten of them. Every one ships a light version and a dark version, and both are real designs rather than one palette with the lights turned off. Your choice sticks whichever mode you are in, and the cards you share follow it - what you post matches what you see. The feed Cards look like the card you share from them. The shop's name is the headline instead of an 11px pill in the corner, the photo gets the same grade as the exported version, and the score is struck onto the picture rather than placed on top of it. Double-tap a photo to like it. Single tap still opens the review. Shop pages Directions and Call are buttons, sized and labelled, at the top of the page. They used to be a 14px unlabelled icon and a phone number styled like body text, both below the fold. A shop that has earned NSB Approved now wears the badge on the page itself, on the photo at the top, rather than in a strip you had to go looking for. Reviews Two new metrics: WAGL and S&S. Both optional, both free text, both show up on the card you share. Fixed Labels on colored buttons were close to unreadable - in some places the text and the fill were the same shade of blue. Every button now picks its label color against the fill it sits on. If your theme was set to System and your phone was in dark mode, the app flashed white every time you opened it. A long display name ran off the edge of the feed card and over the share and report buttons. The contact form no longer needs scrolling to reach the send button. On Top Reviews the top three were smaller than everything ranked below them. Number one gets the hero it earned. Faint secondary text was sitting just under the contrast level it should meet. It is stronger now.

You may notice some screens got a facelift again. Champions Hub now opens on the App MVB race. Sharing got rebuilt: cards are the size Instagram actually wants, you drag the photo to frame it, and the shop's town prints correctly instead of a zip code. Plus fixes to profile cards, feed filters and missing profile pictures. Beef Madness moved Beef Madness is no longer the first thing you see when you open Champions Hub. It is still in the app, one tab over, and nothing about it was deleted. Every bracket, every past champion, the live vote counting and the whole seeding system are exactly where they were. It moved because it is not being run. The bracket needs somebody to start a season, and it does not look like we're going to run one here. App MVB is the thing that actually happens every month, so that is what the hub opens on now. Putting a tournament that nobody is running in front of a competition that runs every month was the wrong way round. If that changes, it is one switch and Beef Madness is back on the front page where it was.

This update covers the last two releases. Open now Shop cards, shop pages and the map now show whether a place is open right now, with the time it closes, or when it opens next if it's closed. The map's "open only" filter uses the same answer, so the map and the cards can't disagree anymore. Times are read properly, not your phone's time, so a shop doesn't look closed just because you're traveling. Late night spots that run past midnight are handled properly. If a shop's hours aren't something we can read with confidence, we show nothing at all instead of guessing. No badge beats a wrong badge. Temporarily closed shops say so, with the reason and how long, and that clears itself when the closure window ends. Shops that only serve on certain days keep showing their own days text. Review drafts save themselves Start writing a review, get interrupted, and it's still there when you come back. One draft at a time, kept for a week, everything except your photos and video. You get the option to pick up where you left off or start fresh. Find people to follow If your Following feed is empty, we now suggest active reviewers worth following, ranked by how much they actually post. Follow right from the list without losing your place. Boost details on shop pages Shops that aren't boosted now show a plain list of what boosting includes, so an owner can see what they'd get without having to ask. Fixes Fixed the avatar flicker. Profile pictures were being thrown away and rebuilt every time part of the screen updated, which is why it got worse while you were typing. They now stay put. Fixed a bug where adding photos to a shop could fail and report that no files were uploaded, even though your photos were attached. Removed a placeholder advertisement that could appear in the feed by mistake. Cleaned up a wide class of stale-data bugs behind the scenes. Unsaving a post now removes it from your Saved list right away, posting a review updates the shop page and the top rated lists immediately, and follow and unfollow update everywhere at once.

Your favorite beeferies deserve to be approved. Well now its easy. Any shop that keeps a 8+ average across 20+ reviews earns the NSB Approved badge automatically, no waiting around, and we get notified to mail out (or drop off) a sticker. Keep reviewing!

Critical map fix; some dummy, we won't say who, forgot to replace one of our secret map keys.

Cleaned up review form, added post exporting, cleaned shared post image generation.

Share posts in a neat little 1:1 exported image.

Went through the code like a wrecking ball. Dead code's buried, bugs are exterminated, and what's left actually works. You're welcome.

Polish. Added WheelHungry, my other project, into this, because why not?

Map fix. Few visual tweaks.

APP MVB! And added like.. 13 squirrels on treadmills under the hood. Should be FastAFBoi.

Fixed minor bugs I overlooked being so excited about the new build.

Complete overhaul. Enjoy V2!

Smoothing more stuff out.

With shirts dropping in the merch store, figured it was a good time to clean up some stuff. Better loading, smoother everything else. Enjoy!

Near Me filter hotfix. Some times I mistype crap. Enjoy.

Fixed bottom of feed, utilizing more modern scrolling techniques. Matching Android codebase, lots and lots of bug fixes.
