### 5/5 — I only use the app’s remote scale feature

*2025-06-27*

I purchased the Acaia Lunar scale when I bought my espresso machine in 2021. As much as I like the scale, this review is about the app. There are some interesting features that I might have a look at eventually but I only use the app when I’m weighing something that covers the scale’s built in display. I use this app for cold brew prep and the occasional pour over. I use the scale for espresso every day, which doesn’t require the app.

### 1/5 — Necessary evil?

*2025-06-16*

Couldn’t get the updater to work with my Pixel 9.  Reddit said “use an iPad, it just works”.  Failed for 20 minutes of trying, then miraculously it worked.  Hope I never have to update again.  “just didn’t work”

### 1/5 — $250 scale $0 app

*2025-02-06*

How is it possible that premium hardware maker abandoned their app. When you buy the scale it literally advertised on the box about the app store. why not just remove this app and just stop lying to people. I wouldn’t buy this scale if i knew about this app. Sad

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2024-06-15*

It’s trash not worth your time, very outdated, the interface of the app looks like it was made for iPhone 3G

### 1/5 — Summer school project?

*2024-06-10*

This app is so clunky it’s incredible that it came from the same company making beautiful scales. It seems the company is not interested in putting out a better app. It would be great to just open source the app and let’s fix it.

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2024-02-27, version 2.6.17*

Barely usable, let alone valuable in its current form.

### 1/5 — Very Outdated

*2023-05-11*

I had no idea the app was this bad prior to the purchase of the scale. No excuse for app this bad when a scale costs $250. Will likely return the scale based off of how crappy this app is.

### 1/5 — Get Brewmaster instead

*2023-02-14, version 2.6.17*

I really can’t understand why Acaia has so many apps.  All of the Acaia product line functionality should exist in the same app.  In its current state, the Acaia software experience is extremely frustrating and disjointed.  I’ve downloaded, used, and deleted all of the Acaia apps.  Save yourself the time and just get the brewmaster app.  It has FAR more functionality than this app and is also made by Acaia…. But you’ll still need to download the separate app to update your scale 🤦🏻.  

Acaia: Add update functionality to the brewmaster app and get all these other half-baked apps off the App Store!!

### 1/5 — So bad.

*2023-01-24*

Can’t believe how terribly thought out this app is.  And glitchy.  Do better Acaia.

### 2/5 — Lots of features, hard to use UI

*2022-12-15*

Refining your brew is much easier with this app: tracking the type of brew (espresso, pour-over, etc), the bean, weights, grind setting, ratio and so on is great. Rating your brew and making notes is also great. 

Having said that it’s a clumsy app with a design that looks about 3 iOS versions behind. Some features are very hard to find and very unintuitive, such as setting a new timing profile for a brewing method. I’ve also yet to discover a way to name the custom methods.

In a word, the app is klunky. I’m hoping these folks take the Apple Human Interface Guidelines to heart and maybe book a UX help session at the Apple Developer Conference. They could turn this so-so app into an indispensable accessory for the scale. 

There’s also the Brewmaster app which is has a much better UI… but is missing key features found only in this app.
