No. Its total is the sum of the purchase prices you recorded, in US dollars — not an appraisal, a market valuation or a replacement cost, and the report says so. Most insurers ask for more, including receipts, photographs and appraisals, so check it against what yours asks for.

Vault Passport is the progress record that connects Cigar, Liquor, Wine, Beer and Coffee Vault under one account. You earn XP by logging entries, adding to your fridge, publishing reviews, logging a new brand or type for the first time, and taking part in the forum and community. Each Vault keeps its own XP and tier, all of it also counts towards your Passport tier, and badges are earned separately for specific things.

Yes, even though the comment box has no photo button. Paste a picture or GIF into the box, or send one from your keyboard's GIF search, and it attaches to the comment. Each comment holds one. It works when you edit a comment too, and in posts, forum replies and messages.

In the Beers catalog, tap the filter icon and pick one or more Tasting notes. The list then shows only beers with every note you picked. Turn on Not yet rated as well to leave out the ones you have already rated.

Use the search box at the top of the Community feed or the forum. As you type, pick a suggestion to search by beer, brand, lounge or member. Tap Filters to narrow it to posts with photos, a date range or, in the forum, threads with a poll.

Tap the badge. In your badge gallery, on a member's profile or Passport, and on a badge milestone in the feed, it opens a card that says what the badge is for, who earned it and when, and, where progress can be counted, how close you are.

Open the post, tap the ⋯ menu at the top and choose Mute this thread. New comments and replies on it stop notifying you, but you will still hear if someone @mentions you there. Unmute this thread turns them back on.

In Settings, go to Danger zone at the bottom and tap Delete account, then confirm. It is permanent: your journal, your beer fridge, your XP and the rest of your account are erased and cannot be recovered.

New journal entries are public by default. To keep one private, switch off its public toggle before you save; to make private the default, turn off Default public journal notes under Privacy in Settings. The same section controls whether your profile and your beer fridge are public, and whether people need your approval to follow you. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
