A Thin Shell Of What It Used To Be

This app used to have photographs and detailed descriptions of just about every oyster variety out there. Now it’s just a small glossary of vocabulary that is used for describing each oyster. It’s also an advertisement for their restaurants. It’s a real shame. I used to enjoy looking at the different pictures and reading the different descriptions.

What happened to this app?

I used this a long time ago but back then it was a really amazing resource. What happened to all the info? What’s the point of this app? There’s nothing here.

Please update the app

I’ve been waiting for a app like this—a pocket—sized oyster guide. I love oysters. The app is on my phone, but there are no guides. No oyster descriptions, no photos, nothing. Nothing under east coast or west coast except empty lines. Please update your app. I really want to start learning more about oysters. Thanks!

What happened?

This used to be a great app.. I enjoyed the listings of both East and West coast oysters. I am somewhat of an oyster lover or freak. Anyway the app lists “ East Coast” and West Coast “ with no listing of any oysters whatsoever. Totally useless.
