Read full description

BevNote allows you to create and group wines by flights or lists, create tastings and assign notes, and then share all that data with colleagues and clients in groups and chats. You can also edit flights on the fly right from your phone, and generate shareable PDF's on-demand, or upload data from external sources. Our ethos is human-centric - not company centric, so your data is not locked to a license and everything comes with you should you ever change companies or roles. You just update your app accordingly. We hope that this platform will provide you a way to more efficiently organize and share your data, and facilitate direct and easy communication with your clients, ultimately saving you time and making you more money.

Keep whiskey, beer and wine tasting notes, and find the details you want to remember. Shloop keeps your note data in an encrypted archive on this device and builds My Taste here too, keeping the preferences you choose separate from what your notes show. Write your tasting notes โ€ข Fields for each drink โ€” Record age and style for whiskey, brewery and style for beer, and grape varieties, vintage and color for wine. โ€ข Aroma, taste and character โ€” Choose sensory tags to describe each drink. Fine-tune its detailed values and add your own memos. โ€ข Photos and context โ€” Add several photos, choose a cover, and keep ratings, weather, places and paired food with your notes. โ€ข Drafts โ€” Save even before the details are ready. Come back later to finish your note. Find your records and explore your taste โ€ข Search and browse โ€” Find, sort and filter your saved tasting notes. Writing, searching and reading your archive work without an account or internet connection. โ€ข My Taste โ€” Set optional preferences as a starting point. Notes rated 7/10 or higher, or marked as favorites, refine your aroma, taste and character charts. Drafts stay out of the profile, and you can edit your preferences whenever you like. โ€ข Wishlist and places โ€” Keep items you want to remember in a wishlist, along with your own list of places. Read the news you choose โ€ข RSS and bookmarks โ€” With an internet connection, subscribe to feeds and keywords, then bookmark posts you want to return to. Full articles open on the publisher's page. Keep your own copies โ€ข Backup โ€” Create a password-protected .shloop file to move your archive data yourself. Keep photo files separately. โ€ข Readable export โ€” Save your notes as web pages in a ZIP that you can open in a browser and print outside Shloop. Start with the details that matter to you, and return to your notes when you need them. Have an idea for Shloop?

Restoring a backup replaces this device's archive data with the backup's contents. App settings stay unchanged. * The readable ZIP is not encrypted and cannot restore the archive. Shloop creates it on this device without uploading it to the web. * Some screens may show ads. When a rewarded ad is available, completing it and receiving its reward removes Shloop's banner ads, including note-detail banners, on this device for 8 hours from the reward time. * Shloop is for personal record-keeping, not professional appraisal or certification. * Developer email: predefy.dev@gmail.com
