Helpful for tea lovers

Great app, tea turns out to be perfect now, much better taste

Response from developer

Hey, thank you very much!

Great looking app

I’ve tried most of the tea apps on the store and this is my favorite. Terrific looking interface and a great way to input your teas, notes, photos, and brewing needs. Could use a few tweaks here and there but a fun little app.

Response from developer

Thank you very much! Would love to hear about tweaks! contacts@trifoiltrailblazer.com is my contact email if you will find time!

Great app

A very good app for tea drinkers. There’s just the weird countdown circle in the Watch app which is probably intentional but looks like a bug.

Response from developer

Hey, thank you! I will have a look! Happy New Year!

Essentials missing

Custom teas are not editable after saving, no custom notes, amount of necessary tea notes not notable. There are better free apps…

Response from developer

Thanks for the honest list, it shaped what I built next. Custom teas are fully editable now, and each brew can carry its own notes. Since then Steep also got caffeine tracking with Apple Health, weekly insights, sorting by Most Used and multi-steep brewing on Apple Watch. Tea amount per tea is on my list next. Would love to hear what you think now. Ivan

Response from developer

Thank you so much! It makes my day to hear Steep has become part of your daily tea, and that brewing from the Apple Watch feels like a delight. If there is ever a tea or a feature you would like to see, write to me at contacts@trifoiltrailblazer.com. Happy brewing! Ivan
