OnlyDrams

Scanned 4 bottles of which 3 were very common. Did not recognize any of them.

Don’t bother. This app is abandoned. They don’t update this app anymore, doesn’t work, no bottles being added. They had the market and lost it.

The idea behind this app is great I’d love to catalog my collection and see the total value. I scanned a very common bottle of bourbon and it got it wrong. Then tried to add one of the most expensive bottles in my collection and it didn’t even have it as an option. Again a very common bottle. Disappointing.

The first time I used the app I scanned three different UPC labels with my iPhone 17, and the app went “0” for three. One was a generic Macallan Single Malt, the next was Aberlour A’Bunadh Alba, last was a Lochlea Batch 2 Single Malt. Glad it was free.

The bottle scanner doesn’t work, most of my whiskies aren’t in their database, and there’s not really anything else I can do with this. This app gets a lot of buzz, but at the end of the day it’s just a bottle lottery app and the chances of ever winning are basically zero. There are far better whiskey apps and sites out there

I tried entering my collection. Unfortunately, it would only let me scan bar codes and not enter manually. Well, a good 1/3 of my collection does not even have bar codes. The ones that do, on half of them show up correctly in the list of options. Maybe this app works if you have bought your collection from mid-tier shelves over the last 3 years (which is where I started). But my collections is hundreds in size, spans bottles over the last decade and includes many special releases just not identifiable from the app. It became painful and useless quick.

90% of my bourbon wasn’t listed, most of which is larger brand name distillers

You have to agree to subscribe to even see what the app does? Oh, the first week is ‘free’ as long as you subscribe and don’t forget to turn it off. There’s no way of seeing anything in the APP. Goodbye.

The features did not work well everything is clunky. You are better off trying another app. Also, this developer is scamming it users and says it’s giving away bottles but it’s not . Also, they sneakily were making me pay for two separate memberships at the same time, and after I tried to contact her help, I was ghosted by the only drums team with no further communication. They stole about $150 for me. Hopefully this helps someone

Opening the scanner crashes the app

This app was just “overhauled” per their support email, but their rarity gauge tool needs a better explanation system. In no shape or form is Eagle Rare “Common”. Adding a bottle also takes weeks and will get bounced with any info. Multiples of each bottles are added which throttles uniformity. They also don’t review rarity change requests because I don’t believe they can actually change it once the algo posts the bottle.

$50 a year for premium. That’s obscene. An app takes 1 person plus a vietemese virtual assistant and ChatGPT. I’m sick of it all. Enjoy the day you sell it to private equity.

Don't bother with this. I was excited to scan my entire collection of about 200 bottles. After scanning just the first 6 it got two wrong and there's no way to edit the name once it's scanned so the app is useless. It said my Dalmore Luceo is a Fortuna and it said my Glenmorangie Quinta Ruben 12 year old is a 14 year old. Wouldn't be a problem if you could edit but you can't. Trash app that would probably work if your collection is the same Makers/JD/BuffaloTrace/Beam as every other tater but for anyone with an actual whiskey/whisky collection this is unsat.

Used the app for a while and loved it for maintaining my collection and ideas for new bottles. Adding other liquors is a fine idea but the filter function doesn’t work at all. I mean at all. I filter out tequila? It shows me tequila. I search by rarity? Doesn’t work at all. Wish this was fixed because I loved the app to manage my collection

The app is slow and frequently unresponsive. Searching and filtering is unreliable. Only redeeming qualities are bar code scan (which is still hit or miss) and secondary pricing estimates are pretty accurate. Maybe the paid version is better but I’m not really convinced to pay given my experience.

Latest update is showing bottles in my collection, but not when I filter by rarity, even though bottle details show the rarity. As well as it switched from unicorn to rare and doesn’t populate. Must be a bug. Not impressed with update.

Amazing app but they removed the “empty” option for our collections. Big mistake imo and takes the app down to 2 stars for me. I can just delete bottles as I finish them but then they aren’t in my history any longer.

Was originally very happy with the app but as time has gone on there has been a lot of issues and I’ve tried reaching out to developers and they don’t respond….

I supported this app due to MSRP & secondary prices as well as the select my pour. Did several years as platinum ($99/year) only to have all premium benefits randomly locked out unless I paid another membership (monthly or yearly). Sad they are only about the money.

I’m not able to log into my app after update

So I was able to scan all my bourbon bottles but when I tried my other bottles many of them were not in the database. Casamigos anejo, Bacardi white and spiced rum, Kahlua, Don Julio anejo 375 ml, Absolut Peach vodka, Cazadores blanco, Grand Marnier 375 ml, and about 15 others that are not really uncommon. So now it’s either add my bottles to this app or find another app and start all over.

Nice app for logging a collection. Irritating that the pick my blind feature is only for a paid subscription. I guess you have to make money somehow. Irritating though to withhold features.

Pretty useless for scotch which is solely what I wanted it for. Only recognizes about 70% of my collection. Wouldn’t even recognize a fairly recent Highland Park 15

It’s a great app when it works. I constantly get the “glen had one too many” error and to try again shortly. I really like the layout of the app but it’s frustrating with how much it crashes.

I’ve been a loyal user of OnlyDrams for a while, but the latest update has completely broken the app. I can no longer log in, and every time I try, I get different error messages related to server issues. It’s frustrating because the previous version worked flawlessly, and now I can’t access any of my saved preferences or content. Please roll back to the prior version or release a fix ASAP—this update has made the app unusable!
