### 5/5 — Great app!

*2022-02-07, version 1.3.3*

Love this app. Easy to search for different cocktails based on several different parameters.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — How does one open this app?!

*2024-08-02*

Downloaded this app on my iphone with no issues. When I opened it, however, a pop-up covered the entire screen about ads or tailoring ads shown in the app. I could not find anywhere to tap to make selections or to close the pop-up, I was unable to access the actual app. YMMV

### 1/5 — Not a good first impression

*2024-05-04*

Downloaded the app with great expectations. It opens up with a disclaimer that you can’t close/get passed. Deleted the app…because that was the only way to get out of it.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me in the app.

*2023-04-04*

When I go to open the app, it has a full page about ads and white ads are necessary to keep it free, but can’t get past that to the actual app

### 2/5 — Missing obvious drinks & ingredients

*2026-03-09*

This app has potential, but it's missing critical pieces of content for a cocktail app. One glaring example: nowhere in the entire ingredients list does lime appear anywhere. Can’t filter for drinks containing lime. You cannot call yourself a serious cocktail app and leave out such a fundamental mixer.

### 4/5 — Search Field Font is Too Light

*2025-01-28*

The app works great and runs like a champ! Please change the default font color in the cocktail search field from White to Black. The search field is nearly impossible to read on iPhone 13 Pro. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Feedback

*2024-12-22*

I maybe mistaken but I noticed the ingredients list for the Adios (amf) isn’t matching up to what I’ve found online. I tried the feedback option on the app and it gave me an error.

### 4/5 — In inglese…

*2024-08-30*

È in inglese…solo questo

### 4/5 — Disappointed

*2023-12-30*

I added some cocktails that my family likes to my bar but only the last one shows. And I am not sure what happens when you select the heart because the do not come up anywhere

### 4/5 — Interesting cocktails

*2023-03-15*

There are cocktails that I’ve never heard of but just by the look of them, I want to try them!

### 4/5 — Recensione

*2021-09-24*
