BeerSmith Lite App Reviews

Must have the export pdf option.

Good initial release, very functional. Now Id like to calculate gravity for two hydrometers calibrated at different temps (60 & 68). Also need to be able to display volumes and weights in metric, along with temps in degrees Fahrenheit. Browse recipe database by style would also be a nice improvement.

Prepare to wait minutes to search for recipes, then when you save one locally the OK button does not take you back. When viewing recipe, and looking at one of the ingredients, that Back button take you all the way out to the main menu. If usability and money are no concern to you, then this app is for you.

Freezes non stop. Wish I could get my money back. Doesnt work at all as it freezes and has to be restarted. Cannot create a recipe. Waste of money. Avoid as it does not work.

Navigating through the app is impossible which makes using it a chore. Every time you want to edit an ingredient in a recipe the back or save buttons dont work and you have to restart it.. Meaning the edits dont save. Please fix this issue or the app is useless and a waste of money!!

Love being able to view my recipes on the go. Transferring them via the cloud is simple. Would like to see it expanded for the iPhone 5 screen in the next update. Great app Brad!

Works great so far that I can tell. BeerSmith has always been on the ball with their PC product, I dont expect any less with the mobile version.

I have been using beersmith 2 for a while now and this is just what Ive been looking for. I can pull up my cloud recipes anywhere without needing a computer and the brew day timer means I dont have to leave my laptop near my brewing equipment!

I like the idea of the app and not necessarily having to drag out my laptop to utilize just a few tools and make adjustments during my brew session. The hydrometer adjust, refractomer % attenuation are fantastic to have at my finger tips.The reference tool along with all its ingredients and data is also very helpful as well as the unit conversion tool. However, I would like to have a few more of the BeerSmith tools at my fingertips like the yeast starter, hop bitterness, boil off and dilution tools included with PC version. This is a great start and great software to make your brewday a lot easier and keep you on track. Keep up the good work and Ill be looking forward to the next release!

Works great! I love being able to do my recipes on my computer put them in the cloud and be able to have a portable brew timer.

Ive used Beersmith for over a year and Im still amazed how powerful it is and how much better my beer has improved because of it. I have been waiting for the mobile versions to come out so I can make more effective use of the Cloud. What is very cool about the app are the Tools. Even though you cant (yet) edit recipes, you can make mash & infusion calculations on the fly. That alone is worth the price of the app. Thanks Brad! Looking forward to the full version!

Beersmith desktop software is great, and now this mobile version builds on it. I can access the recipes from y desktop, via the cloud, from my phone while Im in the backyard brewing. And there are WAY more tools here to help me along when adjustments or measurements need to be made.

Sooo, I like everything but the recipe screen. I love you brew sheet, and use it a LOT. Would love to have electronic version of it. Items Id like on the recipe screen are check boxes, notes, collapsable sections (Yeast starter, Water, Grain, Mash, Boil, etc, etc. ) AND push notifications for brew timers, i.e . friday morning - Yeast starter for Sat brew. Export and/or sync back to my desktop for notes. Inventory push to the cloud, so I know what to buy when I go to the homebrew store. Custom processes sections, where I could just put in a list of steps for my brew system. Photo notes or url link to notes (Evernote for example). Anyway, well worth the $4, Thanks Brad/et al.

Lots of useful tools. Great ability to get your recipes from the cloud. I would give it a five star if there was a calendar sync as well. Maybe in time. Worth the money.

Problem with cloud access is now resolved. Uninstalling and reinstalling did the trick. My previous review was premature and misleading. Brad was extremely responsive and helpful. Thank you.

Well done this far. Looking forward to the full version. It would be nice to be able to see the calendar and add notes.

I am really happy this App has been released and I am certainly looking forward to the next releases where recipes can be edited. It is not intuitive how to make recipes available offline, but it is possible to do so.

Cant wait for the full version! BeerSmith is by far the best brewing software around!

Eliminates need for me to print sheets. Would mine nice to make on the fly adjustments in terms of grain weights, eff. Etc.

I have the PC version and this IOS version and they are great. I can sync to the cloud, search for recipes and later edit them at home. Brad is awesome and he has so much pride in his program. Support is fantastic!
