I took one star because it takes a long time to include new pods and there are some old pods in my collection that are not in the app. Also it would be good to have an option to personalize and add other brands. ### 3/5 — Great concept, not updated *2023-04-05* I was so excited to use this app to track my inventory and favorites but once I got into it almost half my current inventory is not available to log. Pods that were released over a year ago aren’t included. For an app you have to purchase I was expecting it to be updated within a month or two of new releases. I hope they can look into it and add the newer pods that are missing and keep supporting, it’s a great concept and I’d love to use it to see what I’m using most so I can order more accurately. ### 4/5 — new pod update? *2023-04-05* i really like this app! but its missing some of the newer releases like the holiday 2022 pierre hermé pods (which i have quite a few of to log) and the bianco replacements, newest barista creations, new altos, etc. i saw an in-app request feature mentioned in a response to another review, but i couldn’t find it so i thought i’d leave a review here and hope the developer sees it and adds them soon! :) ### 3/5 — Not updated *2023-02-27, version 1.6.2* Just downloaded this app and the format is good but seems to be missing a lot of the recent nespresso pods. The reviews specify this is a common thing. The app serves no purpose if it’s not regularly updated! As someone always trying the new pods this would not work for me. ### 3/5 — Still missing capsules *2023-02-24, version 1.6.2* I like the app to keep track of my pods but there still a lot of the flavors missing to add. I sent an email for capsule request to be added but haven’t heard. Please check and update. ### 3/5 — Good app… *2022-11-28, version 1.6.2* I really like this app but it isn’t updated often enough. There have been new pods out for weeks (bianco doppio, bianco piccolo and holiday pods) that haven’t been added. Other reviews mention you can request pods through the app but I’ve looked everywhere and don’t see this feature. ### 4/5 — Update request *2022-11-20, version 1.6.2* I just want to start to say that I love this app. If you could update the app to reflect new flavors; changed flavors & etc. that would be amazing. ### 3/5 — Needs to be updated *2022-07-04, version 1.6.2* Great concept but the app needs to be updated regularly to be effective. Several newer capsules are still missing. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Please contact me via the app with the names of any capsules that you cannot find. ### 3/5 — CAPSULES NOT COMPLETE *2022-05-31, version 1.6.2* I recently purchased and downloaded the app. I Ike the app very much. The reason I took 2 stars off is because there are capsules that are not in the collection. Papua New Guinea and Starbucks Cafe Verona. Please update the app ### 4/5 — Used to be great *2022-05-23, version 1.6.2* Used to be a great app but sadly the creator has not kept it up to date. New releases not added so no ability to log them and requests to add are not completed. Bar code scanner function is not working so when you scan capsule sleeves it says product not found for ALL of them…had potential there for a while but guess the creator moved on ### 4/5 — Great app! Please add the new Papua New Guinea pod *2022-04-29, version 1.6.1* <3 ### 4/5 — Good app, needs more frequent updates *2022-03-07, version 1.6.1* This is a great app for keeping track of what capsules you have and how many. I like that you can add favorites, add notes (I use this for my preferences in how to brew and to keep track of orders), and browse capsule strength, acidity, etc as it provides more info with fewer clicks than the Nespresso website or app. I have a few things I would like to see added or updated: 1. Add the new Miami Espresso World Explorations original line capsules (and update app more often). 2. Allow favorites and capsules in my inventory to be sorted in alphabetical order so they are easier to find. 3. Allow other compatible coffee pods like Peets to be added. Starbucks is there but it would be great if others were too. Alternatively, add the ability to add custom capsules so that we can add our own. This would also allow us to inventory new capsules from Nespresso in between your app updates as well as other capsule types we have that you do not have in the app. It is a good little app but I would love to see the above changes. Other reviewers have asked for similar changes too. ### 3/5 — I agree with previous reviewer *2021-12-31, version 1.6.1* I got this app due to hearing someone talk about it in my group, and it has great potential but as I went into the app to log my new pods, I realized it didn’t have some of them. They really need to update this to show for all the pods that Nespresso has ever made so it’s affective… kind of pointless to have when they don’t have ALL the pods :/ please please please… PLEASE update this app! I love it and it has great potential, but I need to be able to log all my pods to keep track of :/ Vertuo capsules I’ve noticed so far that aren’t there: Mexico, pumpkin spice cake, Inizio, stormio, peppermint pinwheel, vanilla custard pie, cafecito de Puerto Rico, melozio, Orafio, odacio, double espresso scuro **Developer response:** I’m afraid you are mistaken, all of the capsules that you have mentioned are available in the app and have been available for months. Please check again and amend your review. Many thanks. ### 4/5 — Very handy *2021-12-13, version 1.6.1* A very handy app that gets daily use from our house. I find it a bit difficult to sort through pods in the collection tab because they are listed in the order you add them. It would Be extremely helpful to have an option to sort alphabetically etc. Same goes for the page where you log your usage. Also it would be nice to filter your collection by type. For example, I want to see only what mug-size options I have, etc. A few thoughts - but generally an excellent app! ### 4/5 — Good app *2021-12-10, version 1.6.1* Great app for the pods I could find but only had half of my collection available. specifically wanted to put “pour-over style mild” pods as my new favorite. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Please get in touch with a list of capsules that you couldn’t find and we will happily add them. The app currently displays all Vertuo capsules that have been available for purchase since its launch. ### 3/5 — Great, until *2021-11-09, version 1.6.1* I’d have to agree with a lot of the other reviews. Initially this was a fantastic way to view your inventory in an organized way. It also help me use up some pods that I had forgot I had in my collection. So, I loved it until new capsules were released, but they were not and still are not updated on the app. I also understand there are so many third parties capsules that maybe are more difficult to add, but Starbucks is partnered with Nespresso, and not all of the capsules by Starbucks are listed. I do appreciate you can send an email to request capsules, however you don’t receive a confirmation that the request was received, but I am assuming they have not received it since the ones 8’be requested are still not listed. So not sure how well that function works. **Developer response:** My apologies for the delay, these capsules have now been added. Thank you for your review and for your patience. ### 4/5 — Really great! *2021-09-28, version 1.6* Really awesome and I’m so happy this was developed. Just wish there was an option to share collections for couples who live together and share the coffee. ### 3/5 — More updates plz *2021-08-12, version 1.6* No page for questions. Can you please add non-nespresso brands pods. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No longer worth a buy. *2022-12-19, version 1.6.2* Was a great source of info to begin with. App is no longer updated with new coffees. ### 1/5 — Update *2022-12-07, version 1.6.2* This app is not updated at all, what did we pay for? ### 1/5 — Still not updated frequently *2022-06-27, version 1.6.2* Although the developer keeps responding to reviews saying the app has been updated, it has not. Occasionally a pod is added but many are not. Istanbul Espresso is just one example. And there is still no option to just add your own. In addition, other brands are not included at all such as Illy. So…while this should be a fabulous app, it’s really not useful. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. All of the most recent capsules are now available in the app. The ability to add your own capsules will be included in an upcoming update. ### 1/5 — No Customer Support *2022-04-04, version 1.6.1* I asked for pods to be added, got no response. Pretty useless if all the pods are not available to select. ### 2/5 — Great Experience Mired by Lack of Updates *2023-10-06* The experience within the app is fantastic. Lots of great and useful details, very thoughtfully put together. The most useful for me is the caffeine calculation, which I use to determine the best pod for the level of “pick me up” I need at that time. I use the app to track my large backlog of pods. Some of the unopened are close to my machine, but the vast majority are stored further away, which makes being able to track the full list essential so I don’t surprise myself by running out of favorites unexpectedly. Having said that, as all other reviews have noted, the updates to account for new and seasonal pods are nearly a dealbreaker. There have been numerous new pods released in 2023, none of which have been added to the app. This is despite the developer having a pod submission system. The latest pods added were the holiday 2022, and those were added well over a month after release. If you enjoy taking advantage of the newest and limited edition pods from Nespresso, I would avoid the app. However, if you have mainstays that you mostly keep coming back to and don’t partake in any new pods, then this might be right for you. ### 2/5 — Needs to be updated *2022-12-30, version 1.6.2* This is a good idea for an app to keep count of your pods, but it’s done poorly. There’s a bunch of pods that are missing from the new launch: piccolo, doppio, all of the infimite (Gourmand, fruite, espresso). Also it would better to have it so we can add our own pods and pics and then share it to other people. This would make it easier for the developers, so they’re not keeping up with all the launches and it allows people to have a solution if the developer can’t get to it in a timely manner. ### 2/5 — Good, but needs work *2022-11-06, version 1.6.2* It’s a good app, easy to keep track, love it when I get to the nespresso boutique and can see what I need, BUT it’s been 5 months since an update, and a year for the update before that. The options are super outdated and the developer seems to not have any desire to update the app. I wouldn’t recommend purchasing the app until the developer can update regularly **Developer response:** New capsules were added to the app only two days ago. A redesign has been in the works for three months and will be released soon. Feel free to contact me and I will be happy to share my progress. Which options do you find are outdated? I’m surprised that “Good” justifies a two star rating. ### 2/5 — Good app but never updates *2022-04-13, version 1.6.1* Don't download. It is not updated and hasn't been updated. ### 2/5 — Has potential *2021-07-11, version 1.6* This app is great as I have like 1k pods in my collection. Too bad the developer doesn’t care to expand the catalog. Have emailed multiple pods that aren’t too rare and haven’t even received a response. ### 3/5 — Fantastic Experince, Rare & Slow Updates *2023-09-24* The experience within the app is fantastic. Lots of great and useful details, very thoughtfully put together. The most useful for me is the caffeine calculation, which I use to determine the best pod for the level of “pick me up” I need at that time. I use the app to track my large backlog of pods. Some of the unopened are close to my machine, but the vast majority are stored further away, which makes being able to track the full list essential so I don’t surprise myself by running out of favorites unexpectedly.

I would suggest to have an option to scan QR code. Currently Barcode scan is enabled. Also, create an option to connect all coffee lovers. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-11-03, version 1.6.1* This is a great app. All pods that I have are listed. ### 5/5 — Where has this been all my life?! *2021-07-26, version 1.6* I was tentative about this app since I had to pay the $2 up front to download it, but boy I’m glad I did. This thing is a game-changer — I love how the ease of keeping track of my current Nespresso pod inventory, and the caffeine tracking that integrates with Apple Health too! The descriptions of the pods are super helpful and educational, and the entire app is aesthetically pleasing. If you’re on the fence: just do it! You won’t regret it. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-07-10, version 1.6* Would love to have the note section in the pods more visible and bigger as i write my notes and preferences on it ### 5/5 — Great app…However *2021-05-26, version 1.5.4* Great app. Lots of features and like the dates added to the limited edition. Issue: App Support no longer works. Would like to have the new Coconut Over Ice capsules for Vertuo and Original Line added to app. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. The Tropical Coconut Over Ice capsules were added some time ago. Thank you again for your feedback. ### 5/5 — Needs more third party pods than Starbucks *2021-02-09, version 1.5.2* There are many good third party pods other than Starbucks than would be nice to track. Please add more brands or the ability for users to add. Good app that could be GREAT!! ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2021-02-07, version 1.5.2* I really like this app, the developer is doing a great job, very useful at least for me, thank you ### 5/5 — Easy to use and Great Ui design *2021-02-05, version 1.5* I’m really bad at remember names and this app could help me with that. Also I could keep track of all my pods and even explore new ones. Love the description of each pod. Great UI design, love the interface, buttons and colors!!! ### 5/5 — Wonderful app *2021-01-22, version 1.3.2* Great for tracking and finding new capsule to try. Would like to see the ability to have multiple collections. A way to mark ones that I have tried. And a way to hide or exclude capsules I do not like. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
