### 1/5 — Does not work

*2021-04-04, version 1.0.21*

Was hoping this would be like the Vivino app but for sake. Instead, I got no results from the photo I took of the sake bottle, and when I tried to enter the information manually (which is also limited to what they have in their database), it just kept telling me that it couldn’t upload the information.
