Fromage

While it has 750 different kinds of cheese listed it misses so many key artisan cheese that it feels like you have half a book. On the up side it is fast and easy to use, and the ability to add notes is great. pictures are too small in most cases, no excuse for that at all. And the information on each cheese feels stunted . The saving grace for the product is that you can add your own cheeses data and pictures to the app....which is very handy!

I can use this application to find out about cheese that I do not know. Also, it gives me an idea what to try when I travel to the regions/countries that have their own varieties of cheese. This is not a bad thing to keep handy on an iPhone when one has not much knowledge of cheese in different places.

None of the cheeses I have in my notes were in this app’s data. Hard to navigate.

For an app that I paid for, I would expect it to not erase all my entered favorite cheeses. But it just did that. I like the layout but it needs to be better than this.

Apparently you can see your notes Only under favorites. But it is totally nonsensical. When you look at your favorites you have have No idea how you rated a cheese

This is a good app, with a couple of small issues. The interfaces is looking a little stale, for one, but the bigger issues are duplicate entries and descriptions that often look like ad copy. I'm sure that has to do with where the entries were sourced, but after so long, couldn't they be edited? Also, like the duplicate entries, it is unhelpful to have, say, "Cheddar", "Organic Cheddar", "Goat's milk Cheddar", rather than Cheddar; Cheddar-Goat's milk; Cheddar-Organic. Same goes for branded cheeses all clumped by brand rather than type. These are longstanding issues, and it appears the developer has little interest in addressing them.

I’ve used this application for many years now and I am still surprised about the amount of work the author put in. Congrats! I buy lots of different cheeses and have used this guide to search for new ones. Often I have to bring them in from the country of origin. I’ve shown this app too many cheesemongers I meet and all of them said they wanted this app. Hopefully they also bought it. Thank you Mr. Welch!

Haven’t used it in a while, but now found that it locks up immediately. Disappointed since I need to log a particularly bad cheese. :-). (Installed on 6s.).

I enjoy finding new cheese on this app and saving cheeses I’m searching out in my favorite list. It would really make this app a lot better if there was a creamery name directory and it was searchable by cheese name. I just added creamery info for ten or so if my fave cheeses which was tedious.

First I’d like the saved/favorites to sync across devices. I have both iPad and iPhone, but the data is not shared between them, so I have to re-enter the data twice or limit where I manage the information. Next, I’d like to be able to create a profile with my likes/dislikes. Third, I’d like to share share my information and opinions, and collaborate and see what others think and what their opinions are.
