this app used to be great. now they no longer show if a wine is a great, good, or poor match for me and what I like UNLESS!!! you pay for premium. LAME. this was my go to when I didnt know what wine to buy at the store but now everything is a 😀 match for me (which means good?) Creators of this app, you have messed with a good thing.
Be careful if you select an alternative vintage. It will default to the main one. I have reported it but their customer service is extremely poor. Everything is great until you have an issue then their customer service is a disgrace.
I canceled the premium version of this app months ago but kept the free version. The cancelation was confirmed. August comes and I was charged again. This is an unexpected and unauthorized charge. I hope that Vivino has the integrity to reverse the charge.
Great source of knowledge. Sometimes you cannot find what you scan, and sinetimes the wine is miscategorised as it can happen with any large data base, but whether you are a novice, enthusiast or fine connaisseur (proper spelling, not connoi-sseur, which infuriates me to see) this App has something for you and saves you tonnes of legwork. I recommend ViVino
The "new and better" version hides wine list scanner under a paywall. UI is bloated with ads, barely usable. the label scanning is getting worse, the new feature of "cropping the label" crops way too much, usually the year is cut out.
started out great, but for the last year it does not recognise any wine that is scanned in. on WiFi or cellular. Very frustrating because otherwise it is a great way of logging the wines you'd like to buy again.
I love this app! it allows me to take pictures of the wine side drink and save them in my personal memory bank, as well as rate them for others to read. I also love that I can look up wines I hear about and bookmark them for future reference. only four stars because I don't like the frequency of trying to sell something to me
A lesson in how a great app (once rated 4+) can be undermined by greed. About 18 months ago they made great fanfare about new features. Instead they blocked key functionality unless you paid an (exorbitant) subscription. Thankfully, a phase of ad bombardment seems to have subsided - but the subscription to unlock key features remains over the top. This app exists only through the rich content provided by users. The (new?) owners need to recognise this and work out a fairer business model.
unfortunately the accuracy of the app has really gone downhill. it gets prices way wrong and often returns wines that aren't even close to the label photo. perhaps its better for the paid version, but don't waste your time with this app for the free version.
This app is so bad. The makeover made it even worse. It could be so functional but cellar tracking is bad, syncing is off (also vs website) lots of wines have no drinking window, selecting different years and then adding to cellar gives wrong year in cellar, and it goes on. Wine menu scanning is only reason for premium but even that doesn't work properly. Also missing professional scores and reviews, which would be very value add, and other apps have this.
