Devlog #17 ->
Part 3, wrapping this one up

Last piece was making the retrying actually visible instead of just quietly happening in the background. Before, if a scan was retrying you’d just stare at a spinner with no idea what was going on. Now the loading screen updates to say something like “High demand. Retrying (2/3)…” so people know the app hasn’t frozen, it’s just waiting its turn. Between the queueing, the backoff retries on both ends, and this messaging, this should turn a lot of what used to be “scan failed, try again” moments into just a few extra seconds of waiting instead. Doesn’t make the free tier limit go away entirely, but it’s a big improvement over what I had.

Current problems / what’s next:

• Low MongoDB storage for free account
• Professionalizing (before putting on Chief Delphi)
