Notable releases and milestones for Prepperland: a household's emergency supplies, its plan and its checklists, on everybody's own phone and shared when you want them to be.
| Version | Summary |
|---|---|
| 0.5.30–0.5.31 | Safer connections, and clearer joining. On Android, Prepperland now uses an updated security library that no longer trusts certificates from an authority whose keys were stolen in October 2026, so its connections to prepperland.info can't be impersonated that way. When Android restores Prepperland from a backup, after a reinstall or onto a new device, your supplies come back and it asks you to sign in again, rather than seeming signed in and then failing. If you type a joining code while signing in and it can't be used, you're told why once, with how to try again, and you're never told a code failed when you did get into the group. |
| 0.5.28–0.5.29 | Ready for every store. On Android 15, the end of a long page could sit under the phone's navigation buttons, out of reach; every page now stops above them. Page titles fit a small phone at a large text size. Prepperland is now in Samsung's Galaxy Store too, where it's free with nothing to buy and can join a household group that already exists. The app also says "device" rather than "phone" wherever it means whatever it's running on, since it runs on tablets too. |
| 0.5.27 | The first version sent to the App Store. You can now sign in with your password as well as by the emailed link, which helps when the email is slow. And you can delete your account from the app itself, as well as from prepperland.info. |
| 0.5.22–0.5.26 | Your household, from the app. The Sharing page shows who's in your group. Owners can invite people by email, choosing them from contacts without the app needing access to them, and send the invitation again or withdraw it. A short joining code, shown on one phone and typed on another, adds someone without any email at all. Owners can remove someone from the group, and anybody can see the devices they're signed in on and sign out one that's lost. |
| 0.5.18–0.5.21 | Free, or more. Prepperland is free, with adverts and a few limits: one property with two places in it, and two checklists and two recipes of your own. Paying, yearly, monthly or once, raises the limits, turns on use-by reminders and sharing, and removes the adverts. The yearly option starts with a free week where the store offers it. Nothing you've entered is ever locked, and nothing you need in an emergency is ever paid for: the plan, the ready-made checklists and Be ready stay free. Meeting points gained Tell them I'm here, which sends a message saying which meeting point you've reached, the time and how long you'll wait, with no location permission needed. The plan also shows more of each contact and meeting point without having to open it. |
| 0.5.9–0.5.17 | Be ready, at a glance. Each property's food and water are two rings, in the style of a fitness summary, filled against the number of days you aim for. That's 14 unless you choose otherwise, and never fewer than the government's 3. What runs out first is at the top. When everywhere has its days, Prepperland says so and suggests one useful next step. Recipes are now written for the number of people in your household, with the amounts worked out for you. Messages at the top of a page share one clear style. You can choose light or dark, or leave it to the phone. |
| 0.5.4–0.5.8 | Dates you can trust. The first tab is now Be ready, after the government's advice it's built on. Food says whether its date is best before or use by. Past its best, food still counts and goes into recipes first; past its use-by date, it doesn't. Recipes understand that tomato soup is soup, and can make one thing from another. You can put a property's places in the order you use them, and Prepperland suggests moving older stock to the front. Every page can be shared as text: a shopping list, what's in the grab bag, the plan. |
| 0.5.0–0.5.3 | Shared through prepperland.info. Groups now share through prepperland.info, where your supplies can also be seen and changed from a browser, and printed as labels for boxes and shelves. Each ready-made checklist has a page on the site saying why each thing on it matters. A batch of supplies can say exactly where it is, such as "top shelf", and what's written on its box. Camping stoves, gas and matches have a sort of their own. |
| 0.4.0–0.4.2 | Households, recipes and checklists. Set up your household: the adults, children and pets in it, and the properties you keep supplies in, like home, a holiday home, the car or a grab bag. A dashboard shows how many days of food and water each would last. Prepperland's own recipes are written for a camping stove and little water, and suggest what you can make from what you have. Groups can add recipes of their own. Fifteen ready-made checklists follow the UK government's Be ready advice. Every figure the app uses says where it comes from. |
| 0.3.0–0.3.1 | The same thing, in several places. A supply can be kept in several places with several dates: five tins in the garage until December, two in the kitchen until next month. Anything going out of date shows in amber, and anything out of date in red, until it's used up. Prepperland gained its icon and an About page. |
| 0.2.0–0.2.1 | The first Prepperland. Supplies, the plan and checklists, working on one phone with no account, and shared with your household when you sign in. Scan a barcode to fill in a supply. Meeting points are in order, first choice then backups, and open in your maps app. Contacts are kept with them. It has a look of its own: a gentle 1960s print, with its own landscape and colours. |
| 0.1.0–0.1.1 | A start. A one-screen placeholder that proved the route to both stores before anything else was built. |
