Mixologist™ Drink Recipes for Android
Looked up three recipes and each was wrong. I understand there are variances but there is no reason not to include different versions of drinks. For example: the popular PB&J Shot is made with Frangelico liqueur & Chambord liqueur everywhere I've been. This app simply list Frangelico liqueur and cranberry juice. Waste of money and my time. Would appreciate a refund.
As time has marched on this app has fallen into uselessness. No longer saves favorites, custom drinks, nor updated. Time to move on.
The apps features don't all work like favorites. This would be fine for a free app, but when I pay I expect to have an app that works.
Can't access bottom menu on galaxy note 4, doesn't even show up. other that so far it seems great. A fix in the near future perhaps?
Complete waste of money only gives you 30 games, free version give you 20. Otherwise really fun to play.
When I first got the app, I loved it. 5 stars. Then at some point the Favorites stopped saving drinks. So I either had to find my most commonly liked drinks all over again or not have the new ones available. What's up with the app not being updated since 2012? Do the creators just not care anymore about the app?
I like the app, but it has some flaws. The cabinet doesn't have a full stock of items to select from and there is no way to add or delete from it. So, for example, it lists vermouth but not sweet, dry etc. also the random drink selector doesn't choose from the alcohol you have on hand, it doesn't always get it right. Otherwise, it is a cute app and gives some good recipes and tips. It's not not worth more than I paid, but does need some work.
The available list of drinks is pretty good. The Custom list works well. The biggest detriment is the app's inability to save to the Favorites. The work-around is to create a custom drink but that is a clumsy work-around. Judging by other reviews, one would have to wonder if the developers are listening, especially when other (free) apps provide better functionality. I'd rate this app 5 stars if it were to function as the interface says it should.
The app has lots of drinks. I like the random option. Really like the being able to add your cabinet. My biggest complaint is the favorites don't save. I've been told his will be fixed in upcoming releases, but haven't seen it yet.
I moved from a galaxy s5 to an s8 and the paid features are back (although the 3 dots menu that brings them up is not in a readily apparent spot. Constructive crtis: the liquor cabinet section is too generic and missing ingredients. User needs ability to add ingredients. Finally, I've reinstalled once and moved once and lost my custom drinks and favorites both times. That shouldn't happen
I had to reset my android and now all my custom added drinks and preferences are gone. You really should implement a database save feature. How are users going to upgrade to new phones if this app doesn't server side save your recipes? Gotta say a little disappointed. I had some good ones saved.
Good information but terrible GUI. Clearly just ported over from Apple version without any native Android feel. Even the distinctive Apple 'back' button on the header is ported over which has no place on an Android phone, and the features which did not work without changes on Android are just omitted without apology, which is rather rude for an app with a price.
Good app -- nice variety of drinks but disappoitningly the app doesn't save favourites properly though. They are not remembered and don't show up in the favourites menu. Also would be nice to have a setting to prevent the lock-screen on the phone from appearing so I can keep seeing the app whilst I am making drinks! Fix the favourites and I'll rate 5 stars again.

This has the best reviews, but does not work. I want to make a drink with what I have on hand, but the tool bar that gives me most of the functions I want is missing. I have tryed 2 downloads, and restarting my phone. I would call this buggy. I am going to try Cocktail Builder as I have used it on my laptop with good results. It is not the $1.50, it is that I want a drink and that is the job of this app, and it can not do it. If their web page had a tutorial, and some common problems/questions it would be nice to. Just to be sure the problem is not me. I am pretty sure it is not after doing some searches online.
There are plenty of drinks to choose from. The only issue I have is that there is a disconnect between the "cabinet" and drink menus. In the cabinet you can select what type of liqour to choose from, not the brand. When you select a drink by ingredient, you can choose based upon type of liqour, as well as brand. Huge downfall.
Third email sent about not being able to save favorites. First two, no response. Waiting on the third. No matter how many times I try to save a drink to the favorites, it won't. BACK YOUR APP!!!!
No triple sec option. That in itself is sad. There were about 50 options for alcohol... This app is just disappointing.
The Android version of this app is much more difficult to navigate than the ios version. Also the app does not have everything it advertises, I am missing the options at the bottom where I can build my bar....waste of money.
I don't get any of the tabs underneath, like the home button or liquor cabinet. Would like a refund
Can't save favorite drinks, doesn't connect with facebook, the paid app doesn't have the same features as the free one (the new stuff and the cabinet..) wtf is this ... don't waste money on it the free one is better.
This app had a few good ideas, but now I am noticing it is useless. It can't save any favorites if you "star" them, and it will not save any custom recipes. Also noticed the liquor store locator is not accurate. It doesn't list all stores in the area as one hopes. Not worth the payment.
I love this application. Not only does it work without problems, the recipes and recommendations are great. Sure some are not good, but they are not popular or recommended! Well worth the few penny's per drink.

I loved this app and used it almost religiously until the developer failed to maintain updates for newer Android versions. Unfortunately it was never updated for KitKat, Lollipop, or Marshmallow. The bottom menu is now nonexistent.
At the very least, it needs an option to "limit recipes to only what ingredients I have in my cabinet" INSTEAD, it shows you every recipe that has even one ingredient - which is extremely unuseful at best.
Now bunch of function not working on my new phone. Paid for it and can only use on my old phone. Really dissapointed that the support stoped
I had this on my last phone and loved it. I haven't used it in a while and just installed on the new phone. Very disappointing!!!! What happened to all the great features??? Waste of money.
So I recently reinstalled this program and there is no menu at the bottom. So I cant access the liquor cabinet or anything found down there. Using Samsung Galaxy 6 with Android 6.0.1. It seems obvious to me that that all the attention is now going into the iOS version, and the Android version is completely neglected.
I use to love this app but for awhile now everytime I try and use it I have problems. I paid for this app and I'm extremely disappointed. Why should I have to pay if I'm not going to get the features promised. Please fix it. It crashes all the time as well on my Note 4.
When I first got it. I loved how I could scroll thru and pick a drink. I had gone thru the whole list and picked out my favorites. Then not long ago I noticed my favorite list was gone. It was just after my phone did a software upgrade. I have tired several times to add drinks back to my favorite list but no luck. Not sure what happened or why. I have friends who are Bartenders, they love the App as well but they say it needs to be updated. There are drinks out now that should be on the list.
Excellent layout can be used in a hurry, but... 1) Please spell check 2) Add new brands of alcohol that aren't on here, and last but not least, (if not anything else) 3), PLEASE make a widget that you can either use voice recognition or quick keyboard for even faster access. That would be the best
While this app does contain many drinks and the search engine is pretty good. The favorite system does not work. The app does not retain the favorite setting on individual drinks, & as a result the favorites list is alway empty. This particularly annoying in a paid app.
Won't save my favorites list. I add and go to check and all gone.
Large collection of recipes. The Facebook sharing button seems to be having an issue on my S5.
Missing entire bottom of screen and buttons and as others have said, favorites dont work. Im still waiting for a response by the developer as this should NOT HAPPEN with a paid app that basically has false screenshots and options that seem to not exist as advertised. Ill update my review once i hear from the developers and post. I regret not reading the reviews before downloading
Great app for the home bar and when bartending and wanting to add some new drinks to the mix. I work event bartending so the kit is often shifting. It would be great to be able to build and save "kits" with different sets of liquors and mixers, i.e. for the home bar, work bar(s). Similar to the favorites tab. That would bring it up to 5 stars for me

The recepies are correct compared with what I have learned, you can add your own, put on favorite and share them with friends...
