Inventory AND History!
I was looking for a tea app that could keep track of all my looseleaf teas and the amounts I have of them. This app tracks how much I have, changes my inventory with each brew and allows me to keep notes and photos, too! I love it!
Tea
It was a good app but now there is no Encyclopedia shown on iphone 5s
Crashes
Crashes whenever I try to edit the number of bags I have.
Needs More Development
I added some teas on my IPad as it's easier to type on than the iPhone, expecting that these Teas would show up on the iPhone as well. They did not. I've tried every way I can think of to sync them but it simply won't work.
Very frustrating.
almost there...
if the individual tea notes were searchable from the main page (instead of JUST the tea names), this app would be near perfect! then one could search for key words when in the mood for a 'spicy' or 'fruity' tea!
Looks nice, but shaky behind its nice presentation
Nice interface, but unstable: it'll crash when starting a new brew, and if it doesn't, settings will likely be reset. Timer implementation isn't all that great either: it'll work if you're looking at your phone or if your sound is on, but beyond that, chances are that you'll miss the timer. Tried my best to like it, but nope.
Great update!
I liked this app before, very easy to use with a clean layout, the 2.0 update just made this hands down the best tea app you can get. Great job!
Wonderful :)
Wonderful app. I suggest a custom tea type option. Otherwise, I love the simple design and lovely extra features for getting the perfect brew.
Great App
It's a very well made app but still requires more work.
Would be a very good idea to sort teas by type such as Wulong, Green Chinese, etc.. instead of going into more info to find out.
Settings button when selected takes a few seconds to long to access and sometimes it seems that Tea app is frozen.
Also would be great is to delete unwanted history list which my current version doesn't support. I selected brew by mistake and know I can remove from history list.
There should also have a remove button for removing old teas that you may want to remove. Can't delete "Example Tea" from list.
All said it's a great investment for any tea drinker either beginner or expert.
Good app
I'm enjoying this ap. A few things would make it even better. I'd love to be able to sort by type if tea (ie oolong) or organize them by rating. Other than that, it's a pretty solid ap.
