Pro now starts with a 7-day free trial on the Annual plan, so you can keep scanning invoices today and decide later.

Support email: if no mail app is set up on your phone, the address now shows with a Copy button.

Clearer upgrade screen: each Pro prompt now says exactly what it unlocks.

Fixes a crash when no camera is available: you can now choose an invoice photo instead. The Terms of Use link opens again. Plus small improvements.

You now see your free scans before you take a photo, so you never shoot an invoice only to hit the limit. Plus small fixes.

We added crash reporting, so if something goes wrong we hear about it and can fix it faster.

Price spike alerts now pop up as a notification right after you save an invoice, even while VendorWatch is open. Bug fixes and small improvements.

Price alerts are more accurate: items now match exactly by name, item code, and unit, so you only get alerted when the same product goes up. The upgrade screen now lists exactly what Pro includes. VendorWatch will now let you know when a new version is available.

Behind-the-scenes improvements, including anonymous usage statistics that help us see which features matter most. No personal data, no location, no ads.

Compatibility updates for the latest version of iOS, an updated payments library, and a fix for links opened from other apps.

Sharing pricing to ChefScale or MenuCraft now opens a menu of the apps that can receive it. Subscription status is checked at launch, so an active subscription shows up without tapping Restore.

A cleaner, calmer VendorWatch. Redesigned dashboard, trends, and invoice views built around a clipboard-and-paper look that's easier to read on the line. Fixed invoice dates showing incorrectly on the Trends screen, and made invoice scanning more reliable on slow connections.

Send your VendorWatch pricing to ChefScale or MenuCraft in one tap — your latest invoice prices flow straight into recipe scaling and menu engineering. Pro feature. Plus: ALSTIG Bundle codes can be redeemed in Settings

If you bought the ALSTIG Bundle on the web, redeem your code in Settings to unlock VendorWatch Pro.

Reliability and polish improvements. Plus a new way to discover the rest of the ALSTIG suite right from Settings.

Minor improvements and reliability updates.

A ground-up redesign. VendorWatch just got a major visual overhaul — same fast, operator-focused workflow, now wrapped in a premium dark interface built for back-office rigor and Friday-night glances. WHAT'S NEW • New warm amber + charcoal design language — cleaner hierarchy, richer depth, easier on the eyes at 11pm • Redesigned scan experience with a live viewfinder, floating invoice elements, and an AI READY indicator • New "Reading invoice" screen — watch the AI work in real time with a segmented OCR + Parse progress flow • Larger, bolder Review screen — your scanned invoice preview, extracted total, and vendor confidence front and center • Upgraded Dashboard — total spend and time-since-last-scan at a glance, animated stat cards that light up when there's something to see • Smarter empty states, skeleton loading, and haptic feedback throughout UNDER THE HOOD • Full code audit — error boundary, cleaner DB init, faster screen transitions • Responsive charts that adapt to any device size • Tightened a handful of edge cases around saving duplicates and rapid taps No data migration needed. Same app, same invoices, completely new feel. Scan, track, save.
