Ratings and reviews

I used it the first 10 minutes with heart-shaped eyes. Superfast and straight to the point, connected to the biggest whisky DB. Then I tried to post a review: unable to send review. I tried to add a photo to the profile: failed. I tried to look at the list of my reviews: it's not there. This looks like an unfinished app where a developer tries to guess the undocumented APIs of a backend.

Hey guys. Nice first version! But you are still missing some basic stuff for everyday use. The textual search is kinda broken. It hangs often. I have to keep going back and forth and retry searching. Management of the wishlist and collection is lacking when compared to the website. For example, removing a bottle from the wishlist or collection, etc etc. For all of this, I keep having to go back using the website instead of the app 😥

Useless app. It seems to just aim for scanning barcodes to add bottles to your collection. But for anything else you're better off using the site. Furthermore I couldn't care less about every stranger's activity. Let me turn it off and let me opt out of showing my own activity. Make collections comprehensable and easy to adjust. Have a dark mode ffs! Have a discussion board on the app. I hope someone comes up with a independent client, because I don't believe you guys will ever get it right
