BeerSmith Mobile Home Brewing App Comments & Reviews

BeerSmith Mobile Home Brewing Positive Reviews

User interfaceI’m getting used to saving everything before i close. Also, can’t find specific fermentable ingredients that you can on Brewer’s Friend..Version: 3.1.09

Nice AppDon’t listen to the naysayers. This is a great standalone app. I used iBrewMaster for years and Apple took it off the App Store with no warning. After I updated my phone I could no longer use it. I looked for a new app and I know a lot of people use the full software version of Beersmith and love it. I was hesitant to download this app due to the 2.9 star rating. That is bunk. It does everything you need from designing and saving recipes to the cloud, water adjustment calculations, mash efficiency, etc…I would highly recommend this app as your go to recipe and brew day app!.Version: 3.1.09

Good Mobile OptionI’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..Version: 3.1.09

Great App for new BrewersI’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!.Version: 3.1.09

Perfect for a mobile appI downloaded this to my iPad about 6 months ago, and it’s all I use. I can create recipes without any problem and most of the app is great. Cons: I still don’t like the timer function, and I can’t click and drag ingredients around within the recipe. But does it set me up to make great beer? Yep! Cheers.Version: 3.1.09

Upset brewerUsed to love this mobile app. It used to have a timer on it for each step of your brew day for mashing in and hop additions. I don’t brew very often but the last few times I’ve brewed that nice little tool is not there..Version: 3.1.09

Tools comma issuePlease check the calculation problem with comma as decimal separator, found out last night and had to change country region to fix it. Writing from Bolivia..Version: 3.1.09

Finally! My Five star review!I updated this morning. I immediately went to see if BeerSmith added 10 key entry to numerical fields… YES! My previous review held back giving it one star for this feature alone. As a regular user of this app before and on every single brew day, the lack of 10 key entry made it cumbersome and annoying. No more! Five stars! My next brew day just got a little sunnier..Version: 3.1.08

The default StandardI have used this app since I started brewing ~5 years ago. Works great, no complaints..Version: 3.1.08

Great app, but needs just a tad more...I love this app, and I use it a lot when I'm at work and have an idea for a recipe. That being said I can't always make the recipe I want because the mobile app doesn't always have an ingredient that I want to use. I wish there was a way to do the add-ons like the desktop version. I know there is a work around to get ingredients and profiles on the mobile app by saving them from a recipe made on the desktop version, but that is a pain and doesn't mean I will have an ingredient I want in the future. As of now I have to write in the notes section to add a missing ingredient to the recipe when I get home to my laptop. If there was a way to sync ingredients and profiles from the desktop to mobile over the cloud server that would be great, or an option for add-ons in the mobile app. If the session data was as in-depth as the desktop version and I could match the add-ons to my desktop version easily, this would be a 5 star app for sure. *update* Another set of features that are on the desktop that would be great to have included on the mobile app is the shopping list and inventory. Making the shopping list and inventory sync to the cloud so they are available in your pocket when you are out shopping would be extremely helpful..Version: 2.2.62

Great Homebrew tool!I especially like the calculation and conversion tools, so handy on brew day!.Version: 3.1.09

Excellent Initial ReleaseI've been using BeerSmith 2 for Mac, and BeerSmith Light for about 8 months now, and this full version release for my iPhone and iPad has been greatly anticipated. It works VERY well. I have not had any issues opening files on My Cloud or creating new recipes. I would STRONGLY recommend that users of the LITE version head directly to the "Help" on the bottom of the main loading screen. It will walk you through where the "add" buttons are so you can bring your Equipment Profile over, as well as all your custom Adjuncts, Hops and Yeasts from your desktop. It does not automatically bring everything over. You will need to do it yourself manually, but once it is finished you have access to them. Hopefully it will be automatically done one day, but as this is the initial release of the program I was pleased that it worked, I was pleased that I could alter recipes on my phone, and I was pleased that I can create new recipes as well. If you use BeerSmith, you would be advised to get this program. Brad Smith has always done a great job of adding new features to help keep this program in the forefront of HomeBrew programs, and I have no doubt this one will continue to receive improvements and bug fixes. But, as I stated in the beginning, I have not seen any major bugs and the program runs great. It was worth the wait!.Version: 2.1.38

Awesome support from the developer.When iOS 9.0.1 was released I naturally updated my system. When I next attempted to use my BeerSmith app on my iPad, I found that it would freeze when I tried to edit any of my recipes. My natural instinct was to contact the developer, Brad Smith, which I did. In less than a day, and on a Saturday I might add, I received a reply from Brad Smith. Brad said that he had worked hours getting his BeerSmith app ready for the new iOS 9 release. The app continued to work seamlessly with the new iOS 9 release. However, when Apple released a quick fix to their new system, iOS 9.0.1, they failed to give app developers like Brad, a heads-up. As a result 9.0.1 caused operational errors with the BeerSmith app and Brad was caught unaware and had to scramble to make the necessary changes to his app so it would, once again, work with the newly released iOS 9.0.1. Cudo's to Brad for working so hard to get this problem fixed so quickly for home and craft brewers like me who depend on BeerSmith as our go-to platform to store and develop our home brew recipes and configure our brews. I am especially impressed with the speed with which Brad personally responds to questions regarding this brewing software. I've used at least three other systems and this is the best software out there in my opinion for brewing..Version: 2.2.59

Great update to 3.0However there are some bugs to be squashed. I primarily find issues when I go to install the add ons. Sometimes (not all) when I go to install them they say that they have been installed but then the display will say something like “0 items installed” even though the display says they’re 12 intense that could be installed. So uninstalling it and re installing it seems to fix the issue. So I would definitely check those items. Otherwise this app feels familiar to what were used to in UI and GI design which isn’t a bad thing, but I was hoping for something a little more updated. “Modern” looking. But familiar isn’t bad and the update is free which was a nice touch..Version: 3.0.5

Wonderful!I bought the Windows desktop program first, and I was blown away by it. It figured everything including my refractometer readings with alcohol (Did you ever see the actual equations for a refractometer alcohol correction? There are math symbols in that equation I have never seen). I found myself constantly walking downstairs to my computer updating and altering my recipes. I bought this app because it integrates with my Windows desktop program, and it delivers in spades! I just drag my recipes to the cloud folder and they're shared between my iPad, iPhone and Windows computer. No more walking downstairs to the computer as I alter and create recipes in bed now. Today, I was able to use the brew day timer for the first time. I created a recipe on Windows and started the timer on my iPhone. I was able to do other things around the house, and have my iPhone chime and remind me of the next step in my mash and boil. Few programs impress me, but this one certainly does. It delivers on all levels..Version: 2.1.58

Outstanding, but...I have been using iBrewmaster for roughly 18 months. Frustrated with the constant inconsistent statistics and lack of adequate response from customer support, I decided to change. BrewSmith 2 is simple and comprehensible. Works very well. The best part is Brad Smith, the creator of BeerSmith, corrects serious issues very fast. Since I started using BeerSmith, I have stopped using iBrewmaster. BeerSmith is an outstanding app, but... It needs to do a better job with water profiles. It also needs to elaborate a bit with the grain choices. It also needs to allow the ability to arrange ingredients in the order you want after the ingredient has been selected. It also need to offer the ability to print a recipe!!.Version: 2.2.59

Not worth $8I bought this so I could use timer for brew days and take with me to local home brew store (LHBS). Three main tools I need are none existent on the mobile version. 1) A yeast starter tool is a must have when going to the LHBS and determining if the yeast they have is viable. 2) Ability to change and save grain steep time for extract brewing. 3) Ability to install add-ons for grains, styles, receipts, ect like on the desktop version. 4) It would be nice to have a hop/grain recommend replacement tool for times when LHBS doesn't have my desired grain or hop. While I will use it, I wish that it had a few more essential features, especially since it is carrying a $7.99 price tag. I love the desktop version but would skip the mobile if I could do it again..Version: 2.2.61

It does a great jobThe Beersmith App is a great tool for this very long time home brewer. It’s not a desktop application but it is very powerful and accurate. I can modify or correct recipes that are stored in the Beersmith cloud. I always have access to my recipes wherever I go. Develop your recipes on the desktop use your iPhone or iPad during the brew session. Needless to say I highly recommend this app. Take time to learn it’s full capabilities and you won’t be disappointed. It is regularly updated and support is great. Is it perfect, no. Is it a very powerful and low cost tool, absolutely. Bob.Version: 3.0.10

I'm ImpressedOnce I saw this was available for the iPhone/iPad I went right over and bought it. After creating a cloud account it was quick and easy to copy recipes to my cloud folder and retrieve them on my iDevice, both. It's easy to modify recipes and save profiles and ingredients that are part of the recipe. Creating a recipe is a snap as well. I haven't experienced and abends or hangs and find it quite responsive. I don't like the way Brad handles trub in the boil kettle but he has done a great job with this app right out of the gate..Version: 2.1.38

A must have for Beer Smith users!I'm kicking myself for not downloading this sooner. Of course the price tag contributed to my reluctance, but it is worth every penny. The user interface is clean and well organized -- easy to navigate. I've written entire recipes using my existing equipment profiles and saved them to the cloud, where I can continue to tweak them from a PC. The best part is having the timers on your mobile device and being able to add the actual numbers as you go (measured OG, measured pre-boil vol, etc)..Version: 2.2.61

Useful, but could use some updatingThis app has been central to my homebrewing career and has resulted in two satisfactory beers and dozens of brand-new ideas and concepts. However, there are many ingredients and new hop varieties that I wish would be added to the database. For example, my most recent recipe used Mandarina Bavaria hops, a newer variety not listed in the app, and others such as Lemondrop and El Dorado that have become popular as of late in microbreweries. Adjunct-wise, I'd like to see hibiscus listed and allow a visual estimate of how much of the red hue is given off. Otherwise, this is a pretty decent app..Version: 2.2.51

A must have for brewers!This app is fantastic. The entire suite of software and apps are a must have for ANY level brewer. The 'cloud' account integration is flawless and a dream come true. My 'cloud' is connected to the iPad mounted in the brewery, my MacBook Air, and my iPhone. I can edit my recipes anywhere, anytime. Keeps great inventory for those who need it. I had a spreadsheet inventory for years. No longer needed. Other brewing apps have great features, but this is the one I needed. Primary Reasons: 1. Price. The price is amazing for the entire suite of software/apps/cloud account. 2. Multi-platform. Many of the other brewing apps are not native to the iPad. This honestly surprised me. 3. Ease of use. Once you dive in, all features are easy to pick up. This is a slick app. Very glad I took it for a spin. Thanks to the developer(s) and keep up the good work..Version: 2.1.59

Updated after further use and researchI gave this a pretty low rating upon initial use, but discovered after a bit of research that additional functionality was available and that I did not fully understand how to take advantage of add ons, etc. I do think that is still a challenge for new users and is why I continue to deduct a star, as ideally this could be made more user friendly, but it does have much of the functionality of the desktop version, which also has its quirks..Version: 2.3.4

Thanks, Brad!This is a fantastic app for home brewers. It allows you to completely design your beer before brew day. This is the most complete brewing app by far. I also had some trouble losing my recipes at first. Brad Smith has some excellent tutorials, and I realize I was simply not clicking the right upper hand save button. I just made my first all grain recipe yesterday, and I nailed all of my gravities as expected. It is super easy after a little bit of learning..Version: 2.2.61

Home-brewer, StudentThis app is extremely handy and nice for those quick recipe changes, timer for brew day, simple calculations and a whole lot more. Brad Smith did an excellent job with creating such a powerful home-brewing software! I can say that Brew Smith is hands down the best $10 I've ever spend on an app and one of the best $10 I've put towards my Home-Brewing Adventure! Thank you Brad Smith and have a Great Brewing Week to EVERYONE!!!.Version: 2.2.07

Great tool with a few missing featuresThis is a one stop shop for home brewing, and a steal at this price as it's nearly as capable as the desktop app. Made my first all-grain brew day even easier than my previous partial mash brews where I worked off a paper recipe and hand calculations. A few things I'd like to see, though, that would make it 5 stars and worth easily double: - Become a more iOS native app. Specifically swipe gestures for faster navigation, split screen support on iPad, and better use of landscape orientation on iPad. - A brewers log function, to keep notes on brews after brew day. I use a Numbers sheet for this now, but it would seem to fit well in this app. - A shopping list or a way to export ingredients lists to Reminders or something similar..Version: 2.3.4

Compliments Beersmith Desktop SoftwareThis is a great compliment to the Beersmith Desktop software. I can create my recipes, do my calculations on my desktop then upload them into the cloud folder. Once, there I can carry my iPad out to my breeched and follow my recipe. The built in timers are really helpful so I don't need to switch between apps. This app doesn't do everything that the desktop software can do, so think of it more as a "companion" app. ( in my opinion).Version: 2.2.07

Update has too many bugsThank you for fixing the bugs! Much better… Was happy prior to upgrade. This version has too many issues. Top of app buttons are hidden behind the iPhone battery, signal bar, etc. App seems to lag significantly. Hope there a fix soon! Want to love it, but probably going to revert back to previous version..Version: 2.2.06

Very very cool!I started with Beersmith on the PC. Initially a little overwhelming but soon it all made sense. Then came the Lite version and using it to brew from the phone was awesome. Now I've purchased the full blown app and I love it already. If you have the lite or desktop version, you will quickly see how the full version is a really excellent app and easy to use. Thanks again Brad!.Version: 2.1.51

Much improved still needs somethingI got this app when it first came out and I was very disappointed with the lack user friendliness. Customer service was great and returned my money. I decided to give it another try and I am very happy with the changes. BeerSmith mobile is seamlessly integrated with the desktop version and allows full recipe creation and editing on a mobile device. The cloud sharing is great. The only thing I wish this app had is a way to track batch stages, something that showed a calendar that would notify you when the stage (secondary, cold crash, carbonation) is due. Competitors have this function and it is the only thing that they do better. Great job beer smith!.Version: 2.2.62

Squash the BugsI’ve enjoyed using this app for recipe development and actual brew days. However, with the newest update came a few bugs. I am no longer able to view or select a yeast when creating/editing a recipe. Even under “ingredients,” I am unable to see the various options for yeast. A window pops up saying there is a “java script error...” I would rate this app higher, but this error is a “thorn in my side” at the moment..Version: 3.0.5

Good combinationI use both the mobile app and the desktop version. The app is great for when I actually brew, on brew day. Using the timer, keeping track in general. Not as great for creating recipes, but it does the trick (again, app wise). There have been a few issues with the latest IOS, but the developer of this app is always very helpful to answer questions or concerns..Version: 2.2.57

Can't track actual batches you've brewed.The app is good, but needs a few more features. You should be able to start a brew session, and then track and save it right until the end of the process... Brew, ferment, bottle/keg, tasting. And save note per the particular batch. Not just notes on the recipe. It would help when you discover you've tried a different process at particular step. You can then say that made your brew better or worse..Version: 2.2.07

Good app!This app seems to work well for homebrewing. It appears to be missing an export feature so your brew sessions can be exported into a format for storage. If that feature gets added I’ll update my review to five stars..Version: 2.3.4

Nice but...After using the software for many years on computers, the mobile version leaves you a bit stranded. There are many options missing, such as, exporting and sharing. This means that if you have a Grainfather System for example you cannot export to the software directly. You need to go through hoops in order to get recipes to the other software. This needs to be fixed ASAP..Version: 2.3.4

Update anytime soon?Having a hard time using Beersmith since iOS9 update; lots of buttons arent working anymore (most notably the "back" and "save" buttons). I do hope there's a patch coming up since I cant use Beersmith as it is....Version: 2.2.57

Indispensable for those who want to make their own beerEasy to use, this apps is essentiel to any homebrewers who want good results!.Version: 2.3.4

Low ABVIt's a lightweight version of the desktop program. Needs an update to reflect current BJCP styles.Version: 2.2.07

No log of batches brewedThe recipe portion of it is great, but what good is it without a log of batches brewed..Version: 2.2.07
