Comments on BeerSpec for Android

★★★★★ Good app, but... I have had problems with multiple postings of the same beer. Counted 8 of one & 4 of another on Friday (9/16). Have to go in to untappd/Twitter/Facebook one by one to remove all of the duplicate postings. Needs to increase number of Wish List selections displayed. Some use the Wish List as a shopping list. Needs to rotate along with the screen. Also along those lines, I have a QWERTY keyboard & when I open it the app refreshes. Otherwise, very satisfied.

★★★★★ Better alternative to Untappd website This app is for any Untappd user that wants a faster experience without some of the more frivolous features. Another improvement BeerSpec has is that the check-in feature is faster and considerably more accurate than the Untappd website. Plus the icon is totally rad =P Much props to the Untappd website for its cross-platform compatibility and smartphone integration (i.e. checkin via GPS) but I know that I will be using this app to log all my beers. Great job Mr. Betz!

★★☆☆☆ Doesn't work This app doesn't really do anything it says it does. Scan didn't work, continually asks for untappd login.

★★☆☆☆ Unable to "toast" friends on this app (or on my Evo Shift Internet, for that matter). Will up my review when I can interact with friends on the app! :

★★☆☆☆ Not even as good as the untappd mobile site Found this after hearing about the native app of untappd being released for android. The search results take a long time to come up, and the abv always shows 0%. If you want to add a beer to the database, I couldn't find a place to do it. It was obviously written for iphone and ported to android because in order to search a beer you cant use the search hard button, must hit menu to get to the search feature. The foursquare places list rarely found the places that were relevant to the location.

★★☆☆☆ Cool idea, but buggy Love untappd, but this app tended to crash before actually adding a review. Galaxy S3 on Sprint with jelly bean.

★★☆☆☆ Scanner invades privacy Untapped app is better. Zxing team barcode scanner (required to use scanning) invades privacy.
