Feature Requests, Bugs, and More

I have often wanted to be able to select/copy the text of a wine in the current app, but it's not possible - it's not possible in the new app either, but it would be a really useful feature, as often I want to go and do a google search for that wine and have to type in again

i’m not looking for another social media app. I just want a convenient way to keep track of wine. Please stop forcing me to interact with the social features of your product.

iWould like to be able to conduct an inventory using the app. Be able to put it into a mode that i can check off each bottle. I sometimes forget to remove a bottle from my Cellartracker when enjoying multiple bottles in an evening with friends. I realize I can do this the old fashioned way and print it the list and check each one off with a pen.

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

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.

while I totally benefit from the input of other oneophiles, would prefer if CT focused on things like easier bottle additions- barcode or UPC - Awesome resource for wine lovers, thanks!

Cellar Tracker is built to help me track my cellar. PLEASE give me a way to record my own thoughts on a bottle that I just drank — rating and comments — WITHOUT making this public for every other cellar tracker user to see. It’s PRIVATE if I want to remind myself that my wife thought this wine was a little too sweet or that I drank it at my cousin’s birthday party… but that information will definitely be relevant next month when I’m trying to decide whether to open the next bottle of it or something else. And it’s frankly nobody else’s business that I liked Wine A but not Wine B. It’s fine if some CT users want to exhibit their reviews like social media “influencers”, but it feels really really sketchy to make that mandatory.

I just opened a bottle of wine. Before I could mark it as consumed in the Android app (v. 4.8) I was forced to submit a public rating. I really didn't want to do this and therefore wrote some angry words. Please tell me that this is a bug and not a deliberate policy. If you try to make wine reviews compulsory then they will lose all value, as a large proportion will consist of a random rating and a rant against CellarTracker.

When adding wines, it would be convenient if the most recently used store (or x number of stores) was on the top of the selection list. What typically happens is that I add multiple different wines from the same store one by one. For each wine I have to select the store from the list anew. If the last used store would be the first in the list, this would ease the process of adding my wines.

it would be very helpful if users could later associate a barcode with an already existing wine in the collection. This way, if a wine is first added manually or via label (because it wasn’t found by barcode), and later the app’s database is updated or the correct barcode becomes available, users can easily link that barcode to their existing wine entry. This would make future scans and inventory management much more efficient. Thank you!

it helps in crafting future reviews

ideally the Cellar in CT and Wine Searcher could be synced so adding a bottle in one app would automatically add it in the other. Sometimes shopping for a wine in WS, it's easier to add a bottle there but the Cellar section on WS is useless after that, nothing like CT. Thank you for all you do!

From Scott: There may be alternative categories to like/dont/neutral that work better--I'm not sure. I like the general idea because (1) I don't necessarily want to score someone's life's work as a 70 if I dislike it, (2) I don't always want to spend the mental energy to come up with a score, especially where at a dinner and trying to enjoy company, and (3) I want to be able to quickly and easily sort among wines I like without necessarily caring if the wine got an 89 or a 91. There is also a distinction between wines that are 100-point examples of a style that I dislike. I don't want to score that objectively excellent wine with my subjective 70-point score. I don't have a way to distinguish quality from my personal preference.

Initial fears are this is turning into a mini Vivino. Cellartracker is for the real wine drinking, inventory management utmost, viewing friends cellars and other reviews 2nd. The new app feels too much, too busy, too many pictures, too many suggestions, colour and bling over core inventory management functionality. Please don't lose sight over what made this so good. Vivino should not be viewed as direct competition.
