Vivino: Buy the Right Wine

+ App is overall good. Visual, how it works, large userbase, social aspect, easy and fun way to dive into world of wine and keeping track of your wines you’ve enjoyed. - Since premium feature was introduced, some things have gone wrong. Search works very poorly nowadays. It only pushes wines that are nowadays sold on Vivino, which feels that it pushes ads (with Premium!?@#?). You claim that Premium is ad free…no it’s not if you only keep pushing your wines that you are selling. If that’s not an ad, what is it then!? Also search doesn’t allow to choose merchant anymore, which is rediculous for any user from Nordics, because we have monopoly for selling wines and spirits. We only need one merchant and you took it off for f sake. All in all. Many nice things, but search doesn’t work for exploring anymore, so the fun part was taken away. With current version, I don’t recommend Premium account, because extra features are mainly nice to have features, not must have. I would be ok to watch short ad video to occationally scan wine list or check food paring.

Ok app, but features that used to be free are now paid, for instance menu scanning and even recent scans. Taking away features and making them paid is just sleazy.

It has already passed several months and still I have a lot wrongly matched styles and amount of wines attached to them! You totally ruined the list of styles in my collection. Also STILL Vivino doesn’t have such MUST HAVE countries like Armenia, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Moldova, Macedonia, Turkey with their unique styles! But there are some garbage styles like danish wines! WHAT!??

Super enkel och redig, bra att ha med i Alko

Once upon a time every app update got us more interesting and useful features, now each update locks up the app even more and infests it with ads. No, this is not the way to happy, paying customers that have been helping to pave the initial road to (possible) success.

I’ve been member for years. Started with the free version but quickly changed to paid version. Later they introduced the monthly subscription but promised to keep the app ad free for those who originally purchased the paid version. Well so much for that promise. This is completely unusable now and they have totally failed their early customers.

They’ve finally started monetization. Requires account creation. Too many fake reviews!

Simple as that. Premium?? Another app will rise up to fill the gap you’ve created. Monetise another way, you’re not that good that people will pay monthly to check the odd bottle of wine.

👌

Vivino used to be useful and helpful. With the new premium (i.e., charged) version, there are too many problematic issues for recommending it to new prospective users.
