### 3/5 — Just ok

*2023-03-24, version 2.043*

I wish this let you add oysters that are not listed. First day they didn’t have several oysters we wanted to comment on. And there’s no way for a separate note unfortunately.

### 2/5 — Can’t submit new oysters Don’t waste your money

*2021-10-02, version 2.043*

Here we are on Nantucket and they have locally farmed Pocomo Oysters from the Pocomo Meadow Oyster Farm. Unfortunately the app not only does not provide ANY support but doesn't allow comments or ability to add new oysters. Don’t. Waste your money.

### 4/5 — More oysters please

*2020-07-26, version 2.043*

Excellent app. I wish they could add more oysters.

### 3/5 — Good but could be great

*2019-08-04, version 2.041*

As all the comments suggest there needs to be an easy place on the app to add additional oysters. They are missing some popular ones

### 4/5 — Helpful and fun

*2019-08-02, version 2.041*

I love this app and use it regularly when choosing oysters. My only wish is that users could submit info about oysters that aren’t listed. Tried some new ones recently that I had never heard of and would have loved some info beforehand, even if just personal impressions.

### 2/5 — Lacking

*2018-06-27, version 2.038*

I just went to dinner at Hog Island in San Francisco and *none* of the oysters we ordered are on the app. Would be nice if there was an add your own notes section. I just want to remember what I like! If that's your goal - don't spend the .99

### 3/5 — More oysters please!

*2018-06-01, version 2.038*

This app does not include many all oysters available in restaurants. I wanted an app where I could read about each oyster but also record & take notes on those I ate. Perhaps a new version would allow for notes and custom entry of oysters not listed here.

### 3/5 — Excellent start. Needs some feedback and add options

*2018-03-01, version 2.021*

Great app for looking up your favourite oysters. Disappointed that two of my favourites are missing and there is no way to manually add them or send a note to the developers. 

For note Aunt Dotties from Saquish and Savage Blonde from PEI are both delicious!

### 4/5 — Good app

*2017-08-26, version 2.021*

The descriptions are valuable and well written. Over the top at times but believeable. Please update! More West Coast entries needed!

### 2/5 — Awful!

*2017-04-13, version 2.021*

2 stars for the effort, buggy with an oyster database that is subpar.. AVOID!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic App to learn Oysters!

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

Really great for both learners, travelers and oyster fanatics. Unprecedented photography. Also love the   fact they've got events. A must have if you live the oyster life!

### 5/5 — Yum

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

As someone who doesn't know a lot about the oyster world, this app gave me a doctorate! Not only artfully done but elegant as the oysters themselves with great photos. Love the app! Great job and thanks!

### 5/5 — Lover of all things oyster

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

Beautiful photos and descriptions of the best oysters on the planet!  A must have app for ostreaphiles everywhere!!

### 1/5 — Not Enough Oysters

*2020-07-31, version 2.043*

There is no point in having an app that only has certain oysters and doesn’t allow you to enter ones not in the database.   Deleting, glad it only cost me .99.

### 1/5 — Missing many oysters/ regions.

*2018-03-18, version 2.021*

Was hoping to keep track of my oyster addiction but most every oyster from (Virginia) area isn’t available and there’s no where to add a type that’s not already listed.

### 1/5 — Very limited oysters selection.

*2017-12-25, version 2.021*

Enjoy the pictures, but very few oysters, doesn't look like there's been an update in a while either. Should be free with ads

### 1/5 — Didn't say it cost money

*2017-08-15, version 2.021*

When I was looking around for apps that inform me about oysters, I stumbled upon this one. It looked alright so I decided to download it. However the page did not inform me that it cost money.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-01-03, version 2.01*

Paid for this app, and it worked great. Loved it! But Ever since the last two iOS updates, it doesn't load the types of oysters. All other tabs work, just not the directory of oyster types. That feature was the only reason I paid for this. Please fix or give me my money back.

### 1/5 — Lack of oysters

*2015-06-22, version 1.2*

Weak. As an oyster lover, I am very disappointed with this app. A number of the varieties I like are not even on this app. 👎🏼

### 1/5 — Not worth $.99

*2015-05-01, version 1.1*

This app lacks a lot. Doesn't even have info on Pacifics (most common in Puget sound). You can google any of this info they have. Not sure what sets them apart from the good ole internet. Sorry Oystour but you're going to need more. Not worth the space on my phone.

### 2/5 — So so

*2025-12-13, version 2.043*

Needs updates for the app. 99% of the oysters I look up aren’t in the guide.  The internet works better.

### 2/5 — Great idea, bad execution

*2024-03-20, version 2.043*

I wish this app was more functional because it's a great idea. I can't do anything but "like" a variety, if it's even on the menu, which it usually isn't.

### 2/5 — Cool concept but limited and features no longer active

*2023-12-05, version 2.043*

Very beautiful and descriptive app, but this is so old it’s outdated. No events, doesn’t let you add oysters, doesn’t let you purchase in app.  I’d hold off and find an alternative.

### 5/5 — Missing oysters

*2022-01-12, version 2.043*

I love this app and recommend it to a lot of people but a few are missing. 
Momma Mia
Sex on the bay
Savage harbor blonde 
Wasn’t sure how to communicate this to the developer.  
Thanks for the awesome app.

### 5/5 — Very helpful, fun

*2021-08-13, version 2.043*

Provides good information. It is fun to read about the oysters we buy. I have yet to come across an oyster that is not listed.

### 5/5 — RI Oysters

*2021-06-04, version 2.043*

Give me RI oysters any day!  Best ever.  Oysters coming out of the ponds are to die for!!

### 5/5 — Best oyster app out there!

*2021-03-13, version 2.043*

This oyster app is very classy, comprehensive and easy to use. Another HUGE plus is the constant monitoring and feedback provided by the app owners/managers! They can only list as many oysters as farmers send them. They are very receptive to working with producers when they make contact with them.

### 5/5 — A fun and comprehensive guide to oysters!

*2018-03-21, version 2.038*

Love this app! I never realized how many oyster varieties there were. So many new ones to try! The tasting profiles are robust and the fun facts and additional info along with the gorgeous pictures make this a must for anyone who loves, or is looking to try, oysters.

### 5/5 — 2018 oyster

*2018-03-21, version 2.038*

It is a very good app. Most of the bugs are fixed and it does a great job helping me select oysters.

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

As a newbie to the oyster world I found this app insightful and I absolutely loved all the fun facts. Who new there are so many oysters out there?!?

### 5/5 — Shuckin great!

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

Great app if you lobe these 'treats in a shell'. Very useful when traveling to find good oysters wherever you are.

### 5/5 — Only app like it

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

I'm an oyster fan, bordering on aficionado, and this is the most complete encyclopedia of oysters that I've found.  The improved events section is helpful as well, especially when traveling on business.  Definitely recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-04-20, version 2.02*

The best app for picking out your next ouster at a restaurant or at the market. It gives you a great 
picture and a full description in texture, flavor and where they from. Si far I had found every single one that i have need to look up.
It also allows you to save your picks for a future order.
Did I mention I used it while overseas to enrich my foodie experience and show my acknowledge in the subject while choosing my order. 
Overall great description, great price , great pictures really complete and grate app.
