WhiskeyMate version 1.0
After a year of story boarding, development, and testing we are excited to finally launch WhiskeyMate for iOS via the Apple Appstore.
As my collection grew to the point where I could no longer reliably say I knew what I had and where I had it, I realized that I needed a tool to help my curate, organize, display, and share the collection. Having painstakenly built my collection over the previous 5 years, and not seeing a suitable application in the Apple Appstore, I set out to create an application that met the needs of my close friends and fellow collectors.
The motto at WhiskeyMate is Best Enjoyed When Shared and the application is centered around this concept. WhiskeyMate allows users to Create and Manage Collections, Wish Lists, and to Share their Collections with Friends. We have worked hard to build a user interface and experience that allows users to display the collections they have built in a way that they can be proud of and we hope you agree!
