### 4/5 — Very good, especially for LCBO and SAQ shoppers!

*2018-04-19, version 3.1.3*

I’ve been using this app for many years now.  It’s easy to use and catalogues the bottle well.  Using the barcode to input wine info seems hit or miss as to whether or not you will be able to auto populate the info fields. I hope this app will continue to develop, especially in the area of making manual inputting of wine info faster.

Merci Simon Guetin!

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2017-02-08*

I've added 685 bottles of wine into my app. Now, I can't open the wines, add pictures, add vintages! This app has been a huge waste of my time!

### 3/5 — Not very stable

*2013-11-03, version 2.2.7*

It's "OK" but it crashes often when you try to edit.  The pick lists are not user friendly because you can't navigate quickly alphabetically.  You have to scroll down manually and some of the pick lists are very long.

### 1/5 — Not worth the price

*2013-07-01, version 2.2.7*

Do not buy this app! very painful process to add bottle information. Barcode reader does not work. Very pricey and too bad I cant ask for a refund.

### 2/5 — Disappointing.

*2013-06-28, version 2.2.7*

Nice idea, great platform, but barcode scanner is useless. None of my wines were listed. Improve the catalogue and maybe I'll reconsider. Expensive for what you get. Big fail from me.

### 1/5 — President

*2013-03-14*

Quite simply -- too expensive, a waste of money and I would appreciate a refund!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2012-01-24*

Clunky, not intuitive, expensive. Major effort to enter data if you already have a quantity of wine.

### 1/5 — Mr

*2012-01-02*

Why bother? Expensive, clunky and offers nothing over cheaper or free apps.  Stick to wine HD.

### 1/5 — Bugs are frustrating

*2011-12-29*

Having great diificulty using database. Also app gets stuck on bar code screen if not found. 

Not quite up to billing. Trying for one hour to put two bottles in.

### 1/5 — Save your $

*2011-12-27, version 2.2.1*

Very disappointed. Can't save imputed information.
