It says, “A server with the specified name could not be found.” If this app no longer works, then it should be removed from the App Store. ### 4/5 — So what’s happening with Corkz? *2024-06-01* I noticed that the Corkz app has been broken for a few weeks, unable to connect to the CellarTracker database. Are you guys working on this to fix it? I sure hope so. I love your app and your presentation of the wines. ### 1/5 — App is dead *2024-04-25* Have used it for years and it’s now dead. Fortunately, the database that it used was Cellartracker and you can still use that (they ask for a suggested donation). ### 1/5 — App and website are dead! ☹️ *2024-04-23* I get a blank page and server missing message on both App an website. Is this still in business? ### 1/5 — No longer working *2024-04-19* It has been almost 3 years since the last update. Now when I try to open it, it says "host not found." No one responds to email. I think this company is gone. Do not buy. ### 2/5 — A great app -- until the scanner stopped working *2023-11-02* This used to be a great app for looking up wine at the store or in a restaurant to get community impressions. However, you can no longer scan a bottle's barcode, and have the app pull up the wine, because the app returns the error 11:t "the scandit SDK validation failed. Make sure your app key is valid and check your account for available activations." Multiple people have identified this problem without response from the developers. If you don't mind typing in the wine information, which can be very difficult to get right, then the app is reasonable. ### 1/5 — Zombie app *2022-12-13, version 5.14.30* Seems there is no longer any development of this app. Scan feature no longer works. ### 1/5 — Not helpful *2022-08-20, version 5.14.30* 0 of the 15 bottles I scanned at the store would show up. What is this app even about? ### 1/5 — Bar scanner does not work *2022-08-13, version 5.14.30* Bar scanner on iPhone does not work and support does not respond with help. Used to be a good app but not so anymore! ### 3/5 — Frustrations *2021-12-10, version 5.14.30* While I like the scan function of adding to my cellar there needs to be the ability to add a wine name, year, etc. I am in several wine clubs and receive wines that are not released for retail. There is no way for me to add them to my cellar. ## Frequently asked questions about Corkz ### What does Corkz do?
