Wine Journal+ Pocket Edition App Reviews

When I first started using this, it worked well for me. It was great having shared access to my wine ratings from both my iPad and iPhone. After entering less than twenty wines, though, the syncing stopped working. From that point on I was never able to have wines entered here show up on the iPad, or vice versa, and it eventually got to the point where the app wouldnt even open. Their customer support tried to help, but nothing worked. I only recommend this (or the iPad version) if you dont need it to sync with other devices.

This app is perfect for tracking Vino you love. Snap a picture, rate it, add the details, and finish your tasting experience. Super easy and handy. You can add categories like beer, scotch, etc. to have the whole spectrum of beverages in one app, too. Its great! And syncs with iCloud, which I appreciate. One suggestion: allow the user to change the heart/clover/scroll icons to whatever they want... Create a small icon library to choose 3 from.

Ok this does open on my 5s, unlike some reviewers. But its clunky to navigate. Id love to be able to pull up reds by star ratings (or at least SEE the stars in the overall list) as I primarily use this for quick reference at the grocery. Last straw was entering a new wine with very specific tasting notes and come to find now 3 different wines all have duplicate notes - it wiped out whatever is written months ago! Argh. Dont waste your time.
