### 4/5 — Bar recipe

*2023-04-07*

It’s great and easy to fallow

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review. So glad that you enjoy using the My Bar app. Feel free to get in touch at Hello@getmybar.co.uk if you have any suggestions on ways I can improve the app. I would love to hear them. - Melodie

### 3/5 — Promising, but has UI issues

*2023-03-05*

I have an iPhone SE and cannot create an account with the app to use all of its features because the button is hidden behind the toolbar at the bottom and the page does not allow for scrolling. The rest of the UI is clean and seems to have very nice features, but legacy or smaller-screened devices seem to be unable to partake. I’d happily give this another look if this is addressed

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. We are currently looking into correcting this.

### 4/5 — Great idea!

*2022-11-10*

I just wish I had more of a journal area and a way to see all the drink I can make with what alcohol I have.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. So glad you enjoy the app, i am looking into adding a journal feature very shortly. 

Feel free to get in touch at Hello@getmybar.co.uk if you have any other suggestions on ways I can improve the app. Id love to hear them.

### 3/5 — “Ingrediants”

*2022-08-16*

You spelled ingredients wrong in the app in the “find drink” section

### 5/5 — helpful

*2022-07-06, version 2.10*

easy to use and helpful

### 5/5 — Perfect and user friendly!

*2022-04-28*

A perfect user friendly app with a wide range of classic and unique cocktails. Thanks to this app I’m ready to make lots of wonderful cocktails this summer!

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-02-05, version 2.02*

Súper excelent App

### 2/5 — Limited archive

*2021-11-24*

The app only allows you to choose 3 ingredients. Many cocktails have more than 3 ingredients. 

Suggestions:

Include an option for the user to build/customize, name and save their cocktails for future use. 

If the app is able to identify the user’s custom built drink as a “common” drink then it can/should add it to the search engine for other users to find when searching. For example, a frozen piña colada drink.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the feedback. We will be taking this on for future versions.

### 5/5 — Awesome Bar App

*2021-11-23*

This is a great bar app. I like the large selection of cocktails by type of liqueur.

I especially like the selection of rum cocktails available.

### 1/5 — Not ideal and push review

*2025-06-17*

Friend recommended the app since I  am starting a bar at my house. They have a lot of choices when it comes to adding things to your bar (spices, spirits, bitters, etc). My issue is in the ingredients section and the recipes. It looks as if a random person got on and was trying to tell someone how to make a drink, “Put sugar in glass add water and muddle and spirit and ice” every time you go into a drink it will prompt you to do a review, hence why I am here. Give me time to figure out the app and before pushing a review in my face. Not worth the 3.99 a month.

**Developer response:** Hi , thank you so much for trying the app and for sharing your thoughts. I’m glad you liked the variety of ingredients and bar setup options! I completely understand your frustration about the recipe clarity and the review prompt showing up too early that’s really helpful feedback. I’ll work on improving both the recipe instructions and the timing of the review request so it feels less intrusive.

Thanks again for giving it a try, and best of luck with setting up your home bar!

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2025-04-12*

Terrible app for managing home bar.

**Developer response:** Hi there, I’m sorry to hear the app didn’t meet your expectations. I’d love to learn more about what didn’t work for you so we can make future updates better. Feedback like yours really helps us improve. Please feel free to share more details at hello@getmybar.co.uk

### 1/5 — Financial parasite

*2023-12-05*

App has no way to stop paying if you opt in for the $1.99 a month to store “your bar” in the app and actually build drinks. The app sucked and we didn’t even use it the first night because google gave better drink suggestions with our drinks suggestions with our ingredients. Might be okay for a practicing bartender to make basic drinks but would not recommend

### 1/5 — It asked me 3 times to review it

*2023-02-09*

Ive had the app 16 seconds and it asked me to review it 3 times so here’s 1 star. If i can actually look around the app a little and I like it, I’ll update the review…

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. I'm sorry you experienced this. I will look into fixing this. 

Feel free to get in touch at hello@getmybar.co.uk if you have any suggestions on ways to improve the app. I would love to hear them.

### 1/5 — კაია

*2023-01-16, version 3.0.7*

🤩ქულ

### 2/5 — Cool concept but needs some work

*2024-04-01*

I paid for the subscription to have a way to see what I could make based on what's in my bar. Unfortunately the paid section of the app doesn't actually look at the ingredients you have saved, because most of the drinks I clicked had a bunch of ingredients I didn't select.

### 2/5 — Don’t like the app

*2023-11-07*

The app doesn’t have a lot of drinks, it only has the common drinks but what if you wanna make other drinks. All I’m saying is expand how many drinks the app has.

### 2/5 — Homebar

*2023-10-21*

The home bar was disappointing. It does not let you add your own ingredient and hardly any name brands are on the app..

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2023-04-09*

I spent 10 minutes adding all my ingredients I have in my bar, when I pressed “find” it crashed each time.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I am currently looking into improving this. 

- Melodie

### 2/5 — Poor

*2022-06-07*

A lot of recipes don’t give measurements 
The photos don’t match the ingredients
Half of the ingredients wouldn’t be found in a home bar setup let alone a restaurant 
Waste of money

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. 

My Bar is a free app and you are not charged for using it at all.  

We appreciate the feedback and will look into ensuring the ingredients are more accessible.

### 5/5 — So Delicious!

*2023-02-03*

I had 2 bags of limes, purchased accidentally online grocery shopping, and I didn’t know what to do with so many of them so I decided to make margaritas. I used the recipe from My Bar and it was delicious! And easy!
Try it. You might be surprised and delighted!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review. I’m so glad you were able to find a delicious cocktail.
