Home Brewing Apps

Just curious which Apps you guys use for your iPhone/iPad, Android, etc..

I currently use iBrewmaster 2 but have recently discovered BeerSmith Mobile which says it has cloud storage so I would think it would make it easier to share, especially if you brew with another person sometimes.

I think I've tried every one and keep going back to iBM2. It has some really stupid, and somewhat annoying bugs, but it has the most logical layout and best list of ingredients, in my opinion. I love the Batch List and Schedule tabs, too.

I use Brew Pal. You can share recipes through email or import/export files through url link.

Have you checked out BeerSmith yet? just looking for a comparison.

Additionally, those are some profound words in your signature, haha.

id use beersmith if it wasnt 8 bucks, i already payed for the software on my computer. I can easily print the recipe and not worry about using my phone

That is why I went with Brew Pal. You can't beat $0.99. It does not have searchable recipes, but you can find all you need here and enter them yourself.

I have BeerSmith, and it would be my second choice, but I don't like not having the batch list laid out the way iBM2 does. That and I found the ingredients to be a little lacking.

I will use Beersmith when i get around to spending money for it. Brewersfriend has been good to me, so maybe I would just support that instead

I use Beersmith because I already used the desktop version and it's very convenient to be able to share recipes between the two devices. I always use the desktop version to actually input recipes, it's a lot easier that way.

BrewersFriend.com has a free Android app for all it's calculators; but, the recipe builder requires the web browser. On a tablet it works great.
