Cellar Tracker Mobile

The major difference with an app is the ability to reclaim some screen real estate, and that will also give us better access to the camera and GPS. As someone noted, whether website or app, you can save a link to your homescreen (and we added nice icons to the site to make this look nicer). The last difference with an app benefits CellarTracker – a chance to reach many new users via the AppStore etc.

Eric,
My one complaint is that the new mobile site does not seem to allow me to display
by “wine ready to drink”. This is the primary way I access your site. Hopefully you
will add that.

Please, can people read the FAQ I have posted here 3 times now?

It’s really short: About the CellarTracker Mobile App - CellarTracker Support

Q: What functionality is exposed on the mobile site?
A: The initial preview of the mobile website is fairly limited. It lets you search and browse tasting notes and general information on any wine or wine within your cellar. As of the initial release, the editing functionality was not yet implemented, but we have been fleshing that out as shown below.

As of 9/12/2013, we now have functionality to let you add, edit and delete your tasting notes. We have also added Twitter and Facebook sharing. You can also upload wine label images.
As of 9/20/2013, you can now drink a bottle through the mobile site.
As of 10/11/2013, you can undrink a bottle, edit consumed bottles, and search on a specific CellarTracker barcode.
As of 10/15/2013, you can add bottles to your cellar and edit existing purchases.
As of 10/24/2013, you can accept pending deliveries.
As of 11/6/2013, you can edit wishlists (tagging wines, editing, removing).
As of 11/19/2013, account creation and password reminder/reset functionality is implemented.
As of 12/13/2013, tasting note commenting and helpful voting is implemented.
As of 12/16/2013, help content and the help system are exposed.
More editing functionality (bottle editing, wine and vintage creation, summarized views, > the drinkability report> ) will continue to be fleshed out. We plan to add ALL core CellarTracker functionality over the next few months.

Read the FAQ man. About the CellarTracker Mobile App - CellarTracker Support

Q: Will this work on Android, Blackberry, iPhone, etc?
A: The mobile website should work on any modern smartphone that has support for HTML5. While we primarily test with iOS/Safari, Android/Chrome, and Windows Phone/IE, the site should work on a wider variety of modern devices and browsers.

Q: Why can’t I find the CellarTracker app in the App Store?
A: Right now, we are just delivering a mobile website. There is no app. You access the site in the browser on your smart phone.

Q: Do you plan on making native apps for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone?
A: Yes, once we have sufficiently fleshed out the mobile functionality, we will then look at wrapping this in native apps for a variety of platforms. We expect to reach this point in Q1 2014.

Eric, maybe you should post a link to a FAQ page. :wink:

27

Eric, my only complaint is that neither the mobile nor the desktop version will read my mind, open and decant my wine, and call me a cab. And the @$&#%! FAQ says nothing about these features being added. Is that really too much to ask?

28

Love it! Kudos…and THIS ^^^ [thumbs-up.gif]

29

That’s not in the FAQ, but an advanced feature… it’s there… u just don’t know how to access it… (that’s what i find with CT when i wish it had some feature)… :wink:

30

Love it Eric

31

Why didn’t you post that previously? [wink.gif] Seriously, sorry, it’s kind of crazy here and I’m just catching up. Good work!

32

Thanks, Eric! Actually, I’d been using it on my iPhone without realizing what it was. Nice work.

33

Way cool! Thank you very much:-)

34

Eric,

I love the new mobile app! Great work!

37

That does seem to be a favorite for a lot of people. It’s funny how people have such a strong reaction to such a small detail.

38

So glad you are enjoying the mobile site!

39

What about the feature that adds large bottles of Monfortino to your cellar? [shrug.gif]

Working on those guys, working on them.

We also did just add new vintage creation. Eventually all of the features of the CLASSIC site will be supported in MOBILE.
