Find Best Price at Amazon"Since I've been using this app (since summer '10) I've been learning about wines and have built a great list of wines that I like, and wines to avoid. Because I need to add my wines to the app."
"I didn't think it would be worth upgrading from the free version of Swirl, but that was clearly a wrong assumption."
"I had trouble getting the app to download again and work so I emailed the developer."
"Nice Android app for the average wine drinker."
"without a doubt this is the best app for researching wines and finding new wines."
"A good library, solid but limited reviews."
"Cannot find reviews of wines I expect to find or ones I want to buy."
"add my wines to all wines lists."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I have been using Cellar Tracker for over a year on my laptop and iPad and was excited to find out there was android app."
"Overall have been very pleased for $2.99."
"great link to my cellar to check what is in stock and drink windows while on the go or in the cellar."
"You will be able to keep track of your wine purchases, plus other vintages."
"(And in case there is any doubt about actual internet access, I'm posting this review from the same phone using the same network, so clearly it's an app issue not PEBKAC.). Without internet access to my Cellartracker info, this app is utterly worthless."
"Restarted app about a dozen times, gave up and deleted the app from my phone."
"Tested this app on my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone to see if it would work."
"I loaded this app on a Samsung infuse (Android)."

Find Best Price at Amazon"need a heads up on what to add to a cellar?....hitting a wine store and seeing a 2009 rioja at 12.99 and a 2010 for $10....then checking the years via the ap...bought 2 bottles of the 2010 and had no doubts....plan on organizing my cellar using this ap...drinking the bad ratings now...keep the good ones in the cellar...oh...don't think i'm some rich dude...my "cellar"...just a spare room in the basement with no windows with a nice temp for aging wines...about mid 50s year round....that's all a person needs...this ap will make those one bottle a month purchases to fill that cellar less of a guessing game...see me in 10 years and be amazed at what i've stashed away."
"A quick glance suggests that its ratings line up with Wine Spectator."
"It doesn't say how these ratings are generated, such as what sources (Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, etc."
"This app is an over simplification of wine regions and their vintages."

"This really helps me organize and save recipes easily."

"Everything's organized and excessible."
"I use the ipad to take pictures of my recipes and is so easy to load onto recipe page."
