For a few of you, Consumr got a lot slower as more people submitted reviews to the app (100,000 new ratings will do that to your database). Update to the latest version of Consumr Barcode Scanner to speed up your experience. 

While we were at, we added some pretty cool stuff:

Location Aware Categories: So you’re standing inside Trader Joe’s. Don’t you wish you could instantly see all of the top rated products at TJs? Now you can with location aware categories! We’re adding new stores weekly. Try loading up Consumr the next time you’re shopping at Trader Joe’s!

Books & Appliances: You asked for books and appliances, and now they’re officially part of the new update. More reviews will be added over time by users like you and from third party sources, but play around with them now and let us know what you think.

Friends: We like how everyone is so friendly, so now you can see who follows you and who you follow easily by tapping on your friends count on your profile. Go ahead, make a new reviewer friend!

Smarter Quick Rate: We crunched some numbers and improved Quick Rate. Now you’ll be able to train our recommendations by quick rating products tailored to you.

We also fixed a lot of bugs. Hopefully your bug was in there. If it wasn’t, hit us up at feedback@consumr.com and we’ll get right on it.
