Feature Requests, Bugs, and More

Show CT score and pro scores in search overview. In the current app I often search for I wine and then pick a vintage based on the CT and pro scores I see per vintage in the search overview. The beta does not show scores in the search overview. See attached screenshots for the current difference

This is not a functionality idea, but something that is very important to me as a user.

From Chris: Enhanced Drinking Window Info: Would be amazing to show graphically for each wine the bell curve of the optimal drinking winding assuming proper storage. It could update dynamically based on both critic and user ratings.

There are lots of wines that do not have a vintage year but do have a finite drinking window. (Most Champagnes and sakes, for example!) Currently, these wines have complete nonsense in the "drinkability score" and "drink by" window. For example I often see bottles whose "drink by" window ended before this bottle was actually bottled. It is incorrect to say that, e.g., ALL bottles of Veuve Clicquot NV have the same drink by window. A bottle that was bottled last year will improve a little and then last longer than an NV bottled 10years ago. Instead of showing wrong information (and, e.g., adding lots of noise/mess to my "drinkability report), CellarTracker should do one of the following: A) remove "drinkability score" and ready-to-drink windows from NV wines B) Add a concept of "NV but bottled on date X" (perhaps the purchase date if the true bottling date is unknown) and for NV wines calculate drinkability and drink-bys based on number of years since bottling date [preferred] Thanks!

Ex. it was helpful to see that I had 3 remaining of 7 purchased. Now I am only seeing the total remaining on my collection page.

it was really disappointing to see the drinking window get removed from the my cellar list view. What made this app amazing was the ability to filter by a type your looking to drink and then sort the list by what should be drank 1st so that you clear out the wine that is close to going bad.. It’s frustrating to now have to click into every bottle to see the drinking window.

I'd like to see less emphasis on the 'Grow your network' section on the home screen, please. I'd rather see more information about my collection or other wines, I'm not interested in networking - there are other apps for that. While some people may like that feature, it should have an ability to be removed from the home screen or moved down to the bottom of the screen. Thanks.

From Jonathan: by Grouping (using Microsoft's terminology here) I mean something akin to the "Summarize" feature you have on the website. When browsing a list I can summarize / group them by region, varietal, etc. Sure. I hope you can also add groupings, or at least note category / group totals somewhere - those are very helpful. And I still really wish I could sort / group pending wines by Store. That's huge for me for inventory control and when receiving pending bottles.

Feature suggestion: How about adding an Offline mode in the mobile app? Currently, you simply cannot load the app if there is no data connection where you are. I understand there is no way of supporting full functionality of the app for all the stuff that requires direct/real-time access to the database but I would find it very useful if you could use the label search function say to capture label images / add some tasting or other notes while in a location without cell service (the obvious example being in an underground cellar at home or at a producer but also on a plane or wherever there might not be cell coverage (which still happens quite a bit at wineries in Europe at least!) The data could then be uploaded at a later time when a data connection is available again, for matching of the captured labels to the database for instance.

From Ricardo: I use the Bottle Note field to enter info about Coravin'd bottles. However I could not find a way to search for Coravin'd bottles on the mobile app. Can you please help? From CellarTracker: At this point you can only search this using our desktop website. You can in fact call that up on a phone: https://www.cellartracker.com/list.asp?Table=Inventory&FuzzyNoteMatch=1&BottleNote=coravin&FF=1 We hope to eventually support this in our new mobile app.

From Hamilton Any reason why drink dates are not displayed in the professional reviews? They used to be. https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=2384306

From colinscellar Hi CT beta team, One thing I like to do when considering buying a wine is getting a rough sense of what the community thinks of a particular vintage by searching for a wine without specifying a vintage. In the old CT, I get this view, and e.g. I can quickly see that the 2015 seems to be considered a weak year compared to the 2014 and 2016 either side of it: In the new bet app, doing the same search I get this view which shows me the label but no score information until I specify a vintage: I would like it if I could see the scores across vintages on a single screen rather than having to click into each vintage.

From Andrew In the My Reviews tab the old app showed the number of views each comment I wrote had had. I liked this feature as it gave me an understanding of how interested the community were in particular wines I hold. Many members do not go to the effort of clicking the helpful icon or leave comments. Please consider bringing this dataset back.
