Pros and cons of Wine Journal+ Pocket Edition app for iPhone and iPad

Wine Journal+ Pocket Edition app good for

The app is easy to use and flexible to whatever wine you choose. A great feature is that it uses iCloud, so my wife and I both have the app running, so no matter what, we always have our journal handy!
Its the wine app Im seem to use the most after testing many. currently having an issue with sinking between devices. looking forward to a couple of small future improvements to make it a five star!
This a good journal. It is a simple way for those of us who like wine, but dont speak the wine language, to remember what weve had, the evening and the company we shared it with. The only improvement I could wish for is the ability to zoom in on the photos Ive uploaded, but dont let this stop you from buying it.

Some bad moments

Crashes constantly!!!!!!! Unusable! And there is no way to export all the reviews Ive put in. They promised to fix this months ago. Crashes within seconds when trying to put in new entry EVERY TIME!
Im just starting to use this app and so far its ideal for my purposes. I like the info categories, the sort function, and the multiple photo feature.
This is a nice implementation of the iPad App. Its not as stable as the iPad version and will sometimes spontaneously exit to the main screen. The convenience of having shared data in the cloud and access in my iPhone makes it easier to use when Im shopping or dining. Im deducting 1 star for the stability.
Works pretty good. Like the iCloud sync. I keep on my iPad as well as iPhone. Iphone: A few weird glitches on entry: 1)sometimes cannot select the category I want - it does not take - have to select another category, it takes, and then select the right. 2) notes sometimes keep the last entry when entering a new wine 3) some crashes on start-up All that and i like it. Have about 60 wines in it right now after a week of use.
Works well enough, but there are some needed features: Filter by (show only red wines, only those you have in stock, etc) Show wine image full-screen (I end up taking each pic twice) Recall values - if Im entering a wine from a vineyard, region, country etc that Ive entered before, show me previously entered values Quickly add/remove bottles from my inventory Search more than just name (mainly notes)
Seems to work well for me so far. I havent used it in conjunction with my other network devices
