You're standing at a bar looking at a menu, and you want to know which drink is the best deal. Not the cheapest one. The one that gives you the most for your money. Take a photo of the menu. ABV reads it and ranks the drinks by what you actually get per dollar. It measures in standard drinks, which is a fixed amount of pure alcohol, roughly what's in a 12 oz beer. That's what lets you compare a 5 oz pour of wine against a pint of something weaker and get an answer that means something. WHAT IT DOES - Reads a drink menu from a photo, right on your phone - Ranks every drink by price per standard drink, best deal first - Shows the menu price next to what it works out to - Marks anything it had to estimate, and lets you tap to fix it - Add a drink it missed, remove one it misread - Compare two drinks by hand if you'd rather skip the photo - Work out which size or pack is the better buy at a store That's the whole idea. Here's the best value, and here's exactly what we assumed to get there. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE The menu reading happens on your device using Apple's built-in text recognition. Your photos are never uploaded. There's no account, no sign-in, and nothing tracked about what you scan. FREE, AND IT STAYS FREE Nothing is locked. No subscription, no trial, no paywall in front of the part that does the work. If it saves you money and you want to say thanks, there's a tip jar with three amounts named after the things the app measures: a well shot, a pint, or a round. They all do the same thing, so pick whichever feels right. One time, and it can be restored if you change phones. For adults 21 and over. This is a price comparison tool, the same way you'd compare prices on anything else. It isn't an encouragement to drink more. Drink responsibly.
