- Blur a licence plate on a spot you've already saved — the blur button is right on the photo. - Fixed a crash that could happen when leaving a screen. - The app takes up less space on your phone: temporary scan files and caches are now cleaned up automatically. - AR view opens reliably again after switching to 3D and back. - A few smaller fixes.
Carva is the car spotting app built for enthusiasts who notice every detail on the road — the supercars, the classics, the rare daily-driven gems most people walk straight past. Point your camera, and the built-in car scanner identifies the car and scores it by rarity. Every spot lands in your personal garage and earns XP, leveling you from Rookie to Unicorn across 20 tiers. HOW IT WORKS Snap a photo — or film a 15-second clip — of any interesting car. Carva recognizes it in seconds, from common hatchbacks to once-in-a-lifetime exotics, and scores it by rarity. Car spotting without the guesswork: no manual lookup, no arguing about the trim. VIDEO SPOTS Clips play in your feed and open fullscreen with sound. Share them straight to TikTok, Instagram and Facebook. COLLECT & COMPETE Every spot is pinned on your car spotting map. Unlock badges for brands, streaks, rare finds and hidden challenges. Climb the global leaderboard, fight for the No.1 spot in your own country, and get a weekly recap of your finds. DUELS Challenge another spotter: first to the target XP within 7 days wins. JOIN THE CAR SPOTTING COMMUNITY Follow other spotters and see their finds the moment they post them. Drop a "flame" on the cars you love, leave comments and reply to threads. Keep a spot private when you'd rather not share the location. GHOST HUNT Find ghost cars hidden on the map near you. Walk to their location, catch them in AR, and add legendary machines to your garage. DAILY STREAKS & PUZZLES Spot a car every day to build your streak and earn bonus XP at milestones — 3, 10, 20, 50 and 100 days. Guess the car in the daily puzzle for extra rewards. INVITE FRIENDS Share your unique invite code. When a friend redeems it, BOTH of you get +3 bonus scans.

# Design Brief: Vibrant Pop (with Minimal Monochrome)
Full-bleed high-saturation brand backdrops, oversized bold display type, and high-contrast buttons, common across creator tools and consumer apps.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #f1f4fc;
--surface: #ffffff;
--foreground: #10131a;
--muted-foreground: #687181;
--accent: #3067f5;
--radius: 4px;
--font-heading: "Archivo Black", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "JetBrains Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #F1F4FC (~73%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~8%) · Text #10131A (~10%) · Muted Text #687181 (~4%) · Accent #3067F5 (~5%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Theme & density: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Small Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Photography / Live Video

- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and user count, rating, or key metrics.

## Avoid
