## What is WineBudd?

WineBudd is a private wine journal. You taste, you write it down, you remember it. No social feed, no strangers' ratings, no ads.

TWO WAYS TO LOG A WINE
• Quick log: a name and a rating, from Faulty to Outstanding. Add a photo of the label and a note if you want to. Save it and get back to your glass.
• Full tasting note: tap "Add tasting details" for a step-by-step structured note, so your notes stay comparable from one wine to the next.

INSIDE THE FULL TASTING NOTE
• Appearance: clarity, intensity, colour
• Nose: condition, intensity, development
• Aroma: primary, secondary and tertiary characteristics
• Palate: sweetness, acidity, tannin, alcohol, body, finish
• Flavour: primary, secondary and tertiary flavours
• Conclusions: quality level, readiness for drinking, your own note
Most of it is tap to choose, not type.

FIND IT AGAIN
Search your journal by wine name, or filter by country, region, wine type, vintage, quality level or flavour.

PERFECT FOR
• Wine lovers who want to remember great bottles (and not repeat the disappointing ones)
• Wine students and course-goers who want to practise writing a structured tasting note
• Anyone who's photographed a wine label and then forgot everything about it
• People who want a wine diary without a social network attached

YOURS
Your journal is private. We don't sell your data and we don't use it for advertising.

### 1/5 — Can’t set up log in

*2024-05-25*

I thought I would try out this app. So I downloaded it, opened it, and got to the screen which prompts setting up an account. It asks for first name, last name, email address, and password. So I started to enter the information and the screen scrolled all the way up so that none of the fields or the Submit button were visible. So I went out & back in several times. It did no good. All the fields scroll right out of view. There is no way to set up an account. Very annoying. So ….I will be deleting it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for telling us, and sorry for the trouble. On some phones the sign-up fields scrolled out of view. We fixed that in version 1.0.4. If you still cannot sign up, write to us at https://winebudd.com/support/ and we will help.
