+## `wash` enhancements
+
+Alongside wasmCloud 1.2, `wash` 0.31.0 brings some notable quality-of-life improvements:
+
+* `wash --version` got a much-needed glow-up to display the versions of wadm, nats-server, and wasmCloud that will launch by default with `wash up`
+
+```sh
+wash --version
+```
+```text
+wash          v0.30.0
+├ nats-server v2.10.18
+├ wadm        v0.14.0
+└ wasmcloud   v1.2.0-rc.1
+```
+
+* `wash app list` now has a `--watch` flag for continually watching the output for applications, thank you [Aditya1404Sal](https://github.com/Aditya1404Sal)!
+* `wash app status` has been completely reworked to display the status of each individual scaler, rather than being essentially a shortened `wash app list`
+
+```sh
+wash app status rust-hello-world
+```
+```text
+rust-hello-world@ - Failed
+
+  Name                                         Kind           Status
