Wine Cellar Database vs Pocket Som

Full iPhone Duo Support Every cellar is kept differently. This one lets you keep yours your way. Wine Cellar Database is an inventory app for a real collection: what you own, how many bottles, where it is stored, what you paid, what you thought of it. You decide which of those it asks about. Add a column, rename one, hide one, put them in the order you want, and every wine in the cellar picks up the change. Version 5 is a rebuild. Everything below is new or rewritten. FIND A WINE WITHOUT TYPING IT OUT A catalog of 210,000 wines from 38,000 producers ships inside the app. Search it, tap a wine, and the producer, region, sub-region, vineyard, designation and color are filled in for you. It makes no network request. It works on a plane, and in a cellar with no signal. YOUR COLUMNS, NOT OURS • Add columns of your own: text, large text, number, yes/no, year or date • Rename and reorder the ones that came with the app, and hide the ones you never use • Choose which columns appear under a wine's name in the list • Your own spreadsheet headings are remembered, so an export comes back the way you sent it ONE CELLAR ON TWO DEVICES (BETA) Turn on iCloud Sync and your iPhone and iPad keep the same cellar: wines, photographs, columns and saved filters. It goes to the private database of your own iCloud account, not to a server of ours, because there isn't one. It stays off until you turn it on, and it will not turn on until you have taken a full backup. A BACKUP YOU CAN HOLD One file holds the whole cellar: every wine, every column, every photograph. Save it to Files or iCloud Drive, put it on a Mac, or mail it to yourself. Open one later and look at the wines inside it before you restore anything. Spreadsheets too. Import a CSV from Cellar Tracker or from a spreadsheet you keep yourself, and export the cellar back out under your own headings. FIND THE BOTTLE • Search as you type • Filters you build and save, on your columns, by text, number or date • Favourites and Wishlist, each its own list • Sort by name or vintage, in either direction AND • As many photographs per wine as you like: the label, the back label, the receipt • Prices in your own currency, converted at current rates • A dark appearance, and type that scales with the rest of your phone • On iPad, your cellar and the wine side by side — and it shares the screen, in Split View or Slide Over WHAT IT COSTS Ten spaces are free. A space is one unique wine, however many bottles of it you have: a 2007 and a 2008 of the same wine are two spaces, and twenty-eight bottles of the 2008 are still one. More spaces are a one-time purchase, and any purchase also removes the ad at the bottom of the list. No account. No subscription. No sign-in. Your cellar lives on your device and goes nowhere you do not send it.

PocketSom is your personal wine sommelier in your pocket. Tell it what you love in plain words ("bold Argentine Malbec, funky natural Loire reds, crisp dry Riesling") or just snap a photo of a bottle, and PocketSom curates a list of real, specific wines worth seeking out each with a one-line reason it fits YOUR taste. The more you use it, the sharper it gets. PocketSom builds a living taste profile a visual map of how you lean across acidity, body, tannin, fruit, oak and funk and a sommelier's read on your palate that evolves as you explore. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Discover a curated feed of bottles matched to your taste, refreshed as your palate grows. Filter by type, sort by match or price. • Ask the sommelier chat naturally. "What should I drink with steak?" "Something like that Bandol but cheaper?" "Add Foillard Morgon to my favorites." It understands follow-ups and remembers your taste. • Snap a wine list photographing a restaurant menu or shop shelf and ask "which of these should I get?" even "pick one red under $40." PocketSom reads the list and ranks the best picks for you on taste match and value. • Keep tasting notes snap the bottle, speak or type what you thought, mark whether you loved it. Each note teaches the app and builds your personal wine journal. • Build your library heart the wines you've tried and loved, bookmark the ones you want to track down, and ask your Cellar "what should I open tonight?" WHY POCKETSOM Most wine apps are databases you have to search. PocketSom is the opposite a companion that learns your taste and does the thinking for you, in a calm, editorial space that feels like a thoughtful wine journal rather than a spreadsheet. Recommendations are generated with AI and meant as a knowledgeable starting point, not a substitute for your own taste. Please enjoy wine responsibly. Must be of legal drinking age.
