Comments on: iPhone App Idea: WineSnap https://mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2009/12/iphone-app-idea-winesnap A running commentary of occasionally interesting things — from Mike Davidson. Thu, 26 May 2016 06:34:26 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Eric Weise https://mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/2009/12/iphone-app-idea-winesnap#comment-83221 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 19:30:00 +0000 https://mikeindustries.com/blog/?p=3878#comment-83221 Just saw this old blog post. I am currently building an app (android) that pretty much does exactly this. The code is open source https://github.com/eweise/WineTastingLog if you feel like running your own. I plan to complete it around march 2012. Feel free to leave a message at my github account if you have ideas around it.

The 30 second rule is what we’re going to use for version 2.0 of both apps. Free promo codes when they’re complete.

If you’d like to try it out let me know and I’ll give you a promo code.

That looks pretty good! Unfortunately it requires iPhone software 3.1, which I’ve been avoiding because it disables tethering. Might have to finally buck up and upgrade though. Hrrumph.

Bruno and James: Likewise. Damn… tethering might be coming to an end for me since a lot of these new apps aren’t going to be available to me until I upgrade.

Oh, and let’s you order some more.

Tesco is, kind of, the Walmart of the UK, in case you’re unfamiliar; and I guess it only works on wine available from Tesco’s wine service; which makes it close to what you wanted, but not quite right.

Hope this helps http://winefeeds.wordpress.com/

Some of the ones mentioned above appear but none that seem to do what you’re looking for.

They have a mobile site and a great code system like ISBN for wine.

Or would you think that the picture is enough to recognise the wine yourself without having name and year?

The big deal is the missing database for all the barcode labels, I guess.

Would buy this app right away!
