BeerSmith Mobile Home Brewing

The reason I wanted this app was to use it to calculate many of the various things that are needed for during the brewing process. Anyways, lately it seems this crashes every time one of the tools is opened… ie when opening the back-sweetening too, and trying to select a new sugar from the list. Honestly this basically makes the app useless which is a bummer because it is a paid app etc.

I’ve been using this app now for a couple of months and have made some amazing beer with it. It’s pretty intuitive and easy to work with. Use it in tandem with internet website subscription, only improvement I would suggest is to integrate the water chemistry profile builder capability into the app and prove a “VOLS” tab. Cheers!

I’m getting used to saving everything before i close. Also, can’t find specific fermentable ingredients that you can on Brewer’s Friend.

Always glitchy and doesn’t even work correctly. Tried to add new recipe as soon as I downloaded it and it won’t save or let me edit it. One would think that after this long developing this software you’d get it right. This doesn’t. Pass on it.

There is always something wrong with this app. From the clunky interface to the constant crashing… now I’m getting JavaScript errors and can’t even open my brewday timers. Don’t bother with it. I regret investing my money in a BeerSmith subscription.

Historically this is been a fantastic application. I have no problem with prior versions of BeerSmith , BeerSmith mobile, or Even BeerSmith lite. However, recently there appears to be a problem with the Brewing timer in any of the mobile apps. I have experienced zero problems with BeerSmith desktop or beer Smith web, which seems to work very well. I typically would’ve rated this Four, or even Five stars. However, in its current form, with this error… it is very frustrating and will freeze my product in the mobile version. I hope that BeerSmith can get this fixed soon.

It’s not all that useful for me since you can’t import BeerSmith recipes with this BeerSmith mobile app. Seems strange that the developer decided to exclude support for their own file types out of the box.

I’m in the process of scaling from Homebrewer to Probrewer. While the desktop/web versions offer more utility the mobile version is an excellent option for playing with recipes/ideas while I’m away from my computer. Additionally the ability to share recipes via the cloud is an excellent feature. Overall a fantastic app with loads of handy brewing tools on top of the encyclopedia of recipes.

I especially like the calculation and conversion tools, so handy on brew day!

I’ve emailed about this before quite a while back and it still hasn’t happened, so one star until we get the ability to input negative values across the calculators. I need it for Plato, temps, Brix, etc. I know it’s not as common, but cider gets to negative Brix values and I have beer at temps below zero degrees Celsius. I know I can deal with some by switching to specific gravity and Fahrenheit, but that’s a pain to go back and forth for conversations. Please address this soon.
