App updates to 3.12
We've been working a lot behind the scenes to better help with our payment tracking, and for when people upgrade / downgrade from their app stores instead of via the in-app purchase options. With that all working properly we needed to update our app to send a bit more information, which is now all tied into 3.12.
But, although that all sounds a bit boring to most, we also did some amazing and needed UI adjustments, as well as added a few more features. Along with some bug fixes throughout, the 3.12 change-log also includes:
- Modals now are more prominent at go in-front of the footer bar
- Premium upgrade modal is now completely reworked and standardised over all the surface points.
- Still on the modals, we changed the header bar gradient to better reflect our branding, instead of the off brand colours we did have (although they did look nice)
- We've changed the empty states for the Tried and Want to Try lists, so that they don't take up as much room and give more contextual text for users.
- We added a By Ingredient section into the Home View, giving you all access to quick links to finding cocktails by individual ingredients. We also reworked the discover section for ingredients with the new design here (so much nicer).
- We changed the Power search and Ask Cocktail Colin / Chris text boxes to be larger, as they are contextually meant for larger inputs. Easier to see your questions and text now.
- We tweaked some iconography for adding to lists, standardising over the two areas they are surfaced, but also changing them to an 'add to list' icon instead of a bookmark or star.
It really feels like the app is in such a good (and beautiful) state now but we're always striving to improve and tweak where we can! Long live 3.12 (until 3.13).
