Whiskey-A-Gigi's DramKeeper is the easiest way to remember every bottle worth remembering. Point your camera at a label and DramKeeper identifies the bottle and fills in the details—distillery, region, proof, age, mashbill, tasting notes, even cocktail and food pairings—so your collection builds itself. SNAP & IDENTIFY Take a photo of any bottle and let the app read the label and recognize the expression. No bottle in hand? Type a name—even a partial or misspelled one—and it resolves to the real thing. CATALOG & RATE Keep a tidy, searchable cellar of everything you own and everything you've tried. Rate each dram, add your own tasting notes, and watch your taste profile take shape. ORGANIZE YOUR SHELVES Sort and group your bottles your way, and spot duplicates before you buy one twice.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wine.com at none against Whiskey's 4. Wine.com also leads on ratings volume (83K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Whiskey's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whiskey sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Wine.com asks for nothing beyond the download.
Whiskey holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wine.com has 83K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Wine.com ships an update every 2 months, Whiskey daily. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
