Changelog

v4.0.0(81) Public Beta

This version is packed with big and small improvements, plus a handful of brand new features. First and foremost, we’re finally ready to let you say hello (literally!) to your new personal assistant.

The Tings Assistant (hereafter simply referred to as “Tings”) is designed to help you get the most out of your things — both proactively and reactively. Tings will send you timely tips and notifications about your things, such as celebrating an anniversary, reminding you about maintenance, or checking if you still use something.

You can also ask Tings anything, from troubleshooting an issue, crafting a marketplace ad, to checking whether something fits in your car’s trunk.

Suggested Product Matches

Whenever Tings is unsure about a product on a receipt, it will now suggest likely matches for you to choose from. You can also edit manually or dismiss the suggestions altogether.

Add Thing to Receipt

Sometimes, Tings doesn’t catch everything on a receipt. You can now add missing products yourself, either by entering the details manually or by scanning the item with your camera.

Interface Updates

Since the first beta of Tings 4, you’ve given us tons of great feedback. Among other things, you told us you missed the “In use” status, so we’ve brought it back — and given all statuses a more playful and intuitive design to make organizing both fun and easy.

We’ve also updated swipe interactions in lists. A short swipe to the left now reveals two options: “Delete” and “Move to…”, letting you quickly move an item, for example, from “In use” to “Sold.”

A full swipe deletes the item right away, but you can easily restore it from the “Recently Deleted” section.

These are just some of the features and improvements introduced in this version. We’d love to hear what you think — give it a spin and let us know in the comments!

v4.0.0(67) Public Beta 🎉

We’re thrilled to announce that Tings 4 is now available in Public Beta — meaning anyone can join the beta program! Huge thanks to all of you who shared valuable feedback throughout the Private Beta.

In this release, we’ve focused on improving the signup flow for new users, and made it possible to manage connected email accounts in the You tab.

What’s New?

• Manage Email Accounts: Connect and disconnect email accounts for automatic receipt fetching. You can now also see expired connections and easily renew them.

• New Signup Flow: As we enter Public Beta, we’ve built a new, more intuitive signup experience to make onboarding smoother for new users.

Help us test the new signup flow 🙏

We’d love your help reaching new testers! If you know someone who hasn’t tried Tings before, now’s the perfect time to invite them. Just share this link to join the Public Beta: https://tings.com/tings4

v4.0.0(59) Private Beta

Your friends at Tings are working hard to make updates fly your way faster than ever. Thanks to everyone who’s testing and sharing feedback!

In this update, we’re bringing back the ability to handle receipts that couldn’t be processed automatically, like you’re familiar with from Tings 3 — but with several handy improvements.

What’s New?

• Unrecognized retailer: When Tings can’t identify the retailer, you can now choose one from our database or add your own. To ensure the best results, product extraction will wait until a retailer is selected.

• Suspected duplicate: To avoid clutter, Tings will pause extraction if a receipt looks like a duplicate of one already in your inventory. You can now review and choose to keep both or delete the duplicate.

• Unreadable receipt: If Tings couldn’t read the receipt at all, you can now enter the details manually or try again with a better photo.

v4.0.0(52) Private Beta

Thanks to everyone who’s tested the Tings 4 beta and shared feedback – it’s been incredibly helpful. In this release, we’ve focused on improving images and receipt editing. More goodies are on the way!

What’s New?

• Full-screen image viewer: Tap the main image of your thing to view it in full screen and swipe through additional photos.

• New image crop options: Images can now be set to either Fit (best for clean product images) or Fill (ideal for making your own photos cover the frame).

• Editable retailers: If Tings got the retailer wrong on a receipt, you can now fix it – search our retailer database or add your own.

Improvements & Fixes

• Fixed glitches with the navigation header and tab bar.

• Renamed some confusing buttons.

• Several smaller bug fixes and performance improvements.

Next Up

• Handle receipts that have been stopped due to failed analysis, missing retailer, etc.

• See alternative suggestions when Tings is unsure about a product on a receipt.

v4.0.0 Private Beta 🏗️

What’s new?

Short answer: everything. Tings 4 is a complete rebuild—from the interface you tap to the systems running in the background. With the new design, we want Tings to feel familiar, and fit naturally into daily life. By blending the best of productivity and messaging apps, we’ve created an intuitive way to navigate your inventory and interact with the Tings Assistant.

A few highlights

• In the Inventory tab, you can browse and organize all your things.

• Archive things you no longer have—and optionally mark them as sold, given away or returned—with a simple long press or swipe to the left directly in your inventory list.

• Collections have been simplified to Tags and are seamlessly integrated with Search.

• Toggle on or off automatic tagging, and personalize your tags with colors and icons.
