Not much new lately. It's hard for me to focus on app development in the summer when it's so nice outside. One of my good friends is working on a port of the Brew Shop app to iOS devices though. It's coming along really well so far. Yeah, I've gone back and forth on having a 'Save' or...

Hi Jeff. I've actually looking for someone interested in developing an iOS version of an Android app I've been working on called Brew Shop. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brew.brewshop My design goal was to build the simplest full-featured homebrew app available for Android...

Hi again everyone. Long time no see! I had some time this weekend to work on the app and added a 'Save to PDF' feature. I've had a few members ask me about a way to print from the app for brew day and I think having a PDF version should fit the bill. I also updated the launcher icon to a cooler...

Not yet but I have a 'Save to PDF' feature on the TODO list so you could put it on Google Drive or email it to yourself.

Hey, thanks for your suggestions. I've been thinking of making a 'cancel' button in the action bar somewhere. I personally like how it always defaults to saving changes because it makes it fast for me to create/edit a recipe. I don't want to cancel very often but the UI is currently a little...

Just uploaded v1.12 which adds recipe sharing, a few new recipe and ingredient icons, and a setting to view extract in degrees plato. I'll probably be working on either a 'save to PDF' option or 'share inventory' next. We might be able to handle this with a 'sort by' option for yeasts. If...

Not too much recently. Adding support for extract in degrees Plato, a few extra hop entries, and incorporating a cool new custom icon set. The next big feature I'm working on will be recipe sharing. Also, I started using a new web app called Waffle.io for tracking the backlog of TODO items...

I just pushed a new version (v1.11) to Google Play that *should* add full metric support to the app. There's a new 'Settings' option in the navigation panel now. Just go in there and switch the 'Units' setting to 'Metric'. There are a couple of questions I still have about metric brewing...

I want to work on full metric support and recipe sharing this weekend. If all goes as planned I should be able to push an update in the next week or so. I'll look to y'all in metric land for feedback on how it's working out.

I'd love to see this working on iOS devices but I personally don't know the first thing about iOS development. If there are any iOS developers out there interested in porting Brew Shop please hit me up!

Not yet. I've been looking into 'sharing' options on android and Google's Cloud Print specifically. We could support this but it looks like a bit of a pain to setup for the end user. What do you think of just a simple 'save' or 'share' as PDF option? Cheers.

Hey, nice catch. We were mistakenly saving fermentables in lbs instead of kg. Fixed in v1.10.2. Thanks! Also, the recipe looks a little squished on the right side of your galaxy tab. I'll look into giving that more real estate.

I've personally been using BrewToad recently. I like that site a lot for browsing recipes. Plus, each recipe has an "Export" button that lets you save it locally as BeerXML. Switching gears, one of Brew Shop's astute users noticed their malts and hops weren't showing up when importing a BeerXML...

I just pushed an update (v1.10) to Google Play with a couple of new features. 1) We've added support for opening and saving recipes in the BeerXML standard format. Several existing homebrew applications (Beersmith, Brewtoad, Strangebrew, etc.) already support this so you can now share recipes...

That shouldn't be too hard. I'll add it to our TODO list. Lately I've been spending some time writing UI tests for the app to reduce the number of regression bugs we encounter. As it turns out the test results also make neat little demo videos. I set this one to a song I found in the Creative...

Version 1.9.1 is now available on Google Play with the fix. Ready to rock 'n roll.

Hey, good news. The latest version of our Brew Shop android app does pretty much what you're looking for. You can enter your inventory of malt, hops, and yeasts and optionally formulate recipes from just what you have available in your inventory. Check it out some time if you have an Android...

There's a big crash bug in the latest version of the app (1.9). Don't update yet if you haven't. Fix should be uploaded soon.Thanks to someone with a Nexus 4 for reporting it.

Thanks jtratcliff. We don't have any immediate plans for mash info but I added it to our project backlog. https://github.com/edrews/BrewShopApp/issues/21 This should be fixed in the next release. Let me know if it's still messed up. Android is a fickle mistress. Thanks for your support...

Honestly, I don't think anyone actually understands it. But yes we're definitely working on the addition of an app-wide 'Imperial/Metric' setting. Look for that in the next month or so. Thanks for checking it out!
