User Reviews
Pros
- Useful for planning and executing brew days using recipes developed on desktop version.
- Includes a brew day timer feature (though with some issues historically).
- Allows recipe building and some calculations for homebrewing.
- Cloud feature offers recipe sharing across devices, albeit limited.
- Has tools to recover lost recipes.
Cons
- Brew day timer alarms don't work properly when phone screen is off.
- Clunky and slow user interface with poor UX/UI design.
- Lack of important features like import/export (BeerXML), backup/restore, cloning recipes/equipment, and full cloud sync.
- App unpredictably loses or duplicates recipes, causing data loss and mistrust.
- Subscription model limits free cloud storage to 15 recipes, frustrating some users.
- Discrepancies in calculation accuracy and missing water/carbonation adjustment features.
- No seamless integration between desktop and mobile versions; transfers require manual cloud uploads.
Recent reviews
Beersmith explicitly prevents backing up recipes & equip/ingredient profiles. I'm unable to transfer the data I've spent years working on to a new device. The app itself provides no way to export data and it also prevents native Android data backup, resulting in me being unable to transfer my data to a new device. I posted about it on the Beersmith forum, but my account (and post) got banned with no explanation other than "spam". I even provided error log messages to the developer to help.

if it's a text field (like notes and tasting notes which I use A LOT) it's completely useless. I can't scroll to actually read anything. the rest of the app is just ok. seriously hasn't seen any meaningful improvements since release. which is about the same for the desktop version. it's kinda clunky to use as well and really needs to be updated to current coding standards (which is also true for the desktop version)
