A very nicely thought-out app, BUT could use one or two improvements
Nicely done. This app makes it very easy to maintain a handy go-to list of favorite cocktails (including your own modifications!) for any occasion. Previously I was using the builtin Notes application, which fell short in many ways, not the least of which is that it didnt bootstrap me with 500 rated recipes to choose from.
There are a few tiny interface tweaks I could complain about (it would be nice if the star indicator wasnt quite so subtle, and its not totally clear how to reset a search), but these are pretty minor. I think the apps biggest shortcoming is that while you can edit existing cocktails, you cant add your own. Do you like a Negroni? A Sazerac? A 1794 or a Liberal? Well, you wont find them in this app, nor can you add them to your favorites list. Which means, unfortunately, that some cocktails will still have to reside in Notes.
All in all though, theres no doubt in my mind that this app is worth the price I paid. To the developers, I beg of you, please dont make me use Notes anymore! :) You have a great app, and with that one change I think youll be able to trounce any and all cocktail competition in the app store.
UPDATE: Please update this for the iPad!!!
