Ok addition to Desktop, but not great

This is a worthy app, and helps me run my brew day. It syncs my recipe from my Beersmith cloud account so I can make late changes and track the session. It falls short because it doesn’t sync my inventory, which with the recent release of Beersmith 4 on desktop, is completely in the cloud with all of it’s customizations. So sadly I still cannot design or modify recipes from my inventory on my mobile device, which what I really want to do. I’ve been campaigning for this functionality for a decade. Hopefully Beersmith 4 Mobile is around the corner.

Printing

I think it’s missing the printing option

on the fence

Compared to the PC app and the web version unfortunately the smart phone app is lacking. I don’t really like it to feel of it. Kind of sucks not to mention with the smart phone versus the Web app. It’s hard to import your ingredients that you have via your PC version I even tried using this just to hash out a recipe but again without only in all my ingredients that I have on hand, it is hard to really design something if it has the option to import from your PC your ingredients equipment it would be much better by the cloud option is available again is limited to see the lease and it isn’t as good as working strictly within your PC version. i’m fine. It’s just easier to write out a potential recipe on paper and go from there.
also, there’s no way of tracking your brew that you currently have going via a tilt or other floating hydrometer via a Wi-Fi connection if that option was available in this app, it would definitely be a plus

Crashes constantly.

The reason I wanted this app was to use it to calculate many of the various things that are needed for during the brewing process. Anyways, lately it seems this crashes every time one of the tools is opened… ie when opening the back-sweetening too, and trying to select a new sugar from the list. Honestly this basically makes the app useless which is a bummer because it is a paid app etc.

It should be removed from the App Store

Complete absurd more than two years without update with a bug that closes the app when it tries for example to change the way hops are added and in various other forms of editing in a recipe. You have to remove it, you can't use it. I want my money back.
