Scan feature hardly works
90% of my bourbon wasn’t listed, most of which is larger brand name distillers
Are you kidding me?
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.
Horrible spirit app and development team
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

Review Process is Slow, Bottle Management UI is poor.
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.
Insulted by the premium
$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.
Scanned 6 bottles, it got two wrong
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.
Update is rushed
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
Better off with a spreadsheet
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.

All about the money
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.
Current user
I’m not able to log into my app after update
Not for Scotch
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
Useless for Bourbon Collectors
Useless for bourbon collecting unless they add a way to manually add our bottles to our collection. As an intermediate collector knows, many bottles we get are single barrel picks that are only sold once then they never exist again. Half my collection is listed wrong in the app, or doesn’t even exist at all. You can scan to add picks for review, but all they do is add the barcode to the distillery it came from, they don’t add that specific barrel pick. If a decent amount of my collection can’t be added in the app, then the apps whole purpose is useless. If the devs read this, ADD THE ABILITY TO MANUALLY INPUT OUR OWN BOTTLES TO IUR COLLECTION.
Bottles not found.
I have probably 10 bottles if not more that are not found.
Poor customer service
Spent the time to submit and take photos(front and back) of multiple bottles with good detailed descriptions, to only reject ALL of them because they were “sent in before august 9 and we are cleaning up our data” so told to just resubmit them and do all the work again… would not suggest spending any time trying to make their app better!!!!
Crashes
Opening the scanner crashes the app
App crashes
Love this app BUT it now crashes every time I try and scan a bottle. So sad!!
Latest Update
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.
Empty bottles?
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.
Almost
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….
Where’s all the liquor??
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.
Paid features😕
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.
Keeps crashing
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.
Latest Update Broke the App - Please Fix!
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!

Crash history
I just tried to get on this app and could not. Tried it two or three more times. Download the app again with same result. This app crashed once before a couple months ago. Highly unreliable.
