Sippd is the wine app for people who actually drink wine. Rate it. Remember it. Share it. No sommelier jargon, no spreadsheets, no homework. Just a good place to log the bottles you love and the ones you'd skip next time. WHY SIPPD • RATE EVERY WINE YOU TRY One tap, one score from 1 to 10, one memory saved. Add a photo of the bottle, a note about where you were, the price you paid, or just the score. Your wine, your rules. • REMEMBER EVERY BOTTLE Your personal wine podium, ranked the way you tasted it. Scroll through your highest-rated wines, browse by region, and jump back to any bottle months later to remember exactly how it felt. • HOST TASTINGS WITH FRIENDS Plan a wine night in seconds. Pick a date, drop a place on the map, build the lineup, send invites. Friends RSVP, rate the wines alongside you, and the night lives on in your shared journal. • SHARE WINES WITH YOUR CREW Make a group for your wine club, your partner, or that one friend who always brings something good. Share bottles, compare scores side by side, and finally settle who actually liked the Barolo. • TRACK YOUR WINE JOURNEY Stats that grow with every bottle. See your favourite regions, your average score, the countries you've drunk through, and how your taste shifts month by month. BUILT FOR CASUAL DRINKERS Sippd isn't for sommeliers. It's for the friend who orders the second bottle, the couple who picks up something nice on the way home, the group chat that argues about Riesling. Modern, warm, and free of wine-snob vibes. YOUR JOURNAL, EVERYWHERE Sign in on a new phone and your whole wine history follows you. Your ratings, notes, and tastings stay in sync across your devices. FREE FOREVER The core experience is free for life: unlimited wines, unlimited ratings, unlimited tastings, and three groups with up to eight friends each. No ads. No watermarks on your share cards.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Sippd at 16.0 against Wine Scanner's 18.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
