Ratings and reviews

I am using for almost a year and very simple and easy to use thus to track how much i ve been drinking. Perfect app. Helped me to realize i am in trouble and should pay attention to my alcohol consumption... Only issue for a few weeks i am getting error messages and yet not found any way to export the data l collected about my habits over a year. Would be great if developer could solve!!

Sign up is poorly thought out. Recording ok but no where to OK. Have had to record the same three times. Why????????? Back arrows is FAR FAR FAR FAR too small. There is also TINY 'x' but no OK or next or accept or anything. No way to go back to menu. No simple overview of alcohol types. Eg gin is very different to whiskey. Spirit is wide so should have options. Needs LOTS more work to be used friendly.

This app is amazingly thorough, and gives detailed, personalized feedback on my drinking, including risk, costs and calories. Quite an eye-opener! I like the drink tracker, and there's loads of useful information. It would be good to be able to navigate through some of it more easily. But I was really impressed. The privacy aspect is very reassuring. Ironically (or perhaps evilly?), when I installed the app, the first suggestion for other apps for me to download was for a liquor store...🙄🙄🙄.
