Still Perfect

The app hasn’t been updated in 7 years, but it still looks as perfect as the day it was built. Now that’s design.

Love

I use this app for my own recipes and I love it 💕🫶 it’s very beautifully designed and I love how it auto converts units too 😀 app has been recommended to me once by a coworker and it will stay with me I’m sure 🥰

Can’t share recipe

Absolutely love this app! So handy for training new team members!
I’d love to be able so sort the cocktails into folders - spritz, margs, classics etc

Recipe sharing is also a pain. I can’t import from photos and typing in the codes is a nightmare.

All in all though, best app on the market! I just wish I could make a few small changes

Absolute Smash of an App

One of my favourite apps for sure. Simple and elegant design but powerful enough to get the job done.
I work in fine dining and there’s always lots of inspiration for cocktails to try. This app gives the perfect place to keep all my recipes in one spot and browse them quickly and elegantly. Adding new cocktail builds is really easy and enjoyable, and tweaking them is simple too.
I only wish Neat Studio (developer) would make a duplicate app for cooking recipes. I would definitely pay for that. Great work from the team who made this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Restaurant Bartenders Rejoice

Never not ever have I written a review for an app but Highball has made me break my decade long silence: This is literally MADE for restaurant bartenders. The user interface ROCKS and is such a fun study tool. You could get nit picky about it, but you make classics enough that you just know them, and you can delete and add seasonally. The fact you’re not charging for this and it’s ad free is absolutely WILD like I would pay $15 for this you’ve convinced me to devote myself to you I’ll work for ur company

Still going strong, could use an update though

Would love a backup export/import feature for posterity.

Best Cocktail Keeper

Quite easily the best cocktail keeping app. Has been around for AGES, no ads or pay and just quite aesthetically pleasing and simple to use. Would love to see them benefit from possible paid decks and partnerships (Anders Erickson, Educated Barfly, etc) perhaps, but still just perfect as it is. Thanks all for the effort in making such a simple and beautiful app free for us cocktail lovers!

All show, no go

It looks good, but the functionality is basically nil. You cannot even order your recipes the way you want. Total fail. Makes me doubt the quality and usability of their other products as well.

Great app, could use some things

Love this app. HOWEVER, it would be great if I could share recipes with other users, and if the instructions section allowed numerical steps in list form, with carriage returns.

Does its thing

This app does what it does pretty well. Categories might be nice but you can filter on keywords. The only bug I find is that changing the Qty doesn't stick. It reverts back to one.

So good but could be better

Honestly I love this app but the share feature could be improved, as sending the card to someone via the share button just sends them a link to the App Store page, and not the cocktail card.

I love the image idea but the options are a little bit lacking or scarce.

And maybe an option to input a certain amount of cocktails as opposed to clicking through 1-5 serves.

Other than these little things I absolutely love the app and use it regularly!

Would happily pay for the add on content if it were to be made apart of it.

Love it but needs improving

I like this app, but I use it I guess too much it keeps crashing, and sometimes I’ll need to start a recipe over. Some ids didn’t work from photos it’s like 50/50 chance. I also would like it if I could link websites and/or put any photo and it summarize the recipe. 😁

ESSENTIAL!!!

I’m a new bartender and have been looking for an app to organize my recipes so they’re easy to look up while at work and this app is exactly what I was looking for! A feature I love too is being able to have the visual of the drink, too. It helps so much! The layout is perfect and easy to use. I’ll definitely be recommending to my other bartender friends so we can all throw out our cocktail notebooks😂

Please update the portion multiplier

I love this app. I use it all the time. My only complaint is that I often batch cocktails for big parties and need to be able to multiply the root recipe by a larger multiple than 5X. Can you please update that so there is a 20X limit vs 5X? Thank you!

Great way to save your personal library of drink recipes

Love this app and have been using it for quite a while. Overall the UI is clean and user-friendly and, most importantly, ad-free. It’s easy to record your favorite cocktail recipes and to recall them for use later and even lets you customize a stylized image of the drink on each recipe.

My two wishlist items would be:
1) The ability to reorder ingredient rows after typing them in, since you have to delete rows to move an ingredient up the list at the moment.
2) An option to keep your phone awake when using the app so you don’t have to keep unlocking it or adjust your auto-lock timeout in the Settings app.

Other than those two items I have no complaints. I love the simplicity and lack of distraction in the UI and the app runs great.

Thanks again!

Essential

This is the only app I would recommend somebody passionate about making drinks needs. From Novice to expert a profoundly useful tool. My only request is that they create a way to share cocktails through accounts, and a cloud system that makes me feel sure my recipes won’t be gone forever. I also want to note that when on the job the accessibility of the card system is genius.

Perfectly simple.

This is exactly what I was looking for to keep my cocktail recipes organized and easily accessible. Customizing the image of the drink is a neat touch. Couldn’t be happier!

Love, but can’t send recipes via text

I absolutely love this app and use it all the time. Colorful, easy to use, big fan. My only beef with it is that I have to screenshot recipes to share them with people. If I hit the share button in the app, it only directs people to the Apple Store to download the app, even if they already have the app.

Used to be a great app

Pefecft for batching up cocktails. Sharing no longer works. Simply sends a link to the app and name of cocktail you want to share.
