PINtPOINT Beer Radar

Radar - New "undiscovered venues" layer — toggle under the radar reveals hollow amber rings for pubs Discover has found but PINtPOINT hasn't catalogued. Discover - Untappd matcher restored. Every FSQ venue and every fresh area can now earn an Untappd match again. - Trust chip merged — single teal Untappd via Google chip replaces two competing badges. - FSQ venues can earn the trust chip for the first time (previously structurally unreachable). World / map - Auto-derived city clusters, - WORLD STATS from server-side per-country queries.

Recommendations • "Why this pint?" chips on Best Pint Next — see exactly why a beer is matched to you (Hoppy match · Pale Ale profile · Fresh tap data · Close by). • Fresh sightings outrank stale ones at the same venue. • Draft and cask preferred over bottle/can. Venues • Freshness pills next to venue names: Fresh · Yesterday · 3d ago · Needs refresh. • Chain hotels (Premier Inn, Travelodge etc.) no longer pollute pub discovery. Sip or Skip • Beer-specific descriptors ("Pine, dry finish, citrus" instead of generic "aromatic hops"). • Family-aware swipe axes — Stouts show roastiness, IPAs show hop- forward character, etc. • Refinement runs include real catalogue beers from your nearby venues.

• New splash screen/app icon. • Discover: only Untappd-matched venues by default — every card is one-tap addable. Two-step widen to all bars, then hotels & restaurants. • Smarter Add: niche pubs Google doesn't index now get found via Untappd name + locality + proximity verification. • Share any venue: tappable link with rich preview card. Opens the app at that venue for users who have it installed. • Beer label scanner picks up beer style more reliably.

PINtPRESS now reads inside the app — full essays, postcards and notes accessible without leaving the radar. Find it via Settings → About → PINtPRESS. Tap Swap on any PINtDEXTER recommendation to cycle through alternatives. Recommendations no longer pull in beers last seen more than 10 days ago — no more "great-on-paper but already gone" picks. Troubled Pub Mode: per-venue severity labels softened — Stable, Under pressure, Struggling, At risk, Critical. The source attribution to Ben Guerin's website stays untouched. Recommendation card now stays visible (in a muted state) when no fresh match is available, instead of disappearing — clearer signal that the feature tried.

NEW • Beer Scan / Read the Label — vision-powered identification of cans, bottles and pump clips. Auto-links matches to Untappd. Save & Scan Next flow for logging a session quickly. • Hall of Fame — curated archive crawls including the London Monopoly Board, Bermondsey Beer Mile and Orange Line Crawl. • Create-a-Crawl: Nearest Neighbours mode — user-led route building, pick from three options at each step. • Tap Trumps: 9:16 Story-format share cards (Instagram / TikTok ready). • Ghost Hunter: Demolished Mode filter + Ghost Tap Trumps surfacing the venue's last-ever Untappd check-in. IMPROVED • PINtDEXTER now surfaces Best Pint Next above the unknown-venue list. Smarter ABV scoring around session-pint psychology. H2H signal feeds the recommendation engine more carefully. • Beer detail page deep-links to the Untappd page when an ID is known.
