MyTeaPal: Tea Timer & Journal

I genuinely love this app so much, it’s become such a must for someone like me who loves tea. Going into it I was honestly expecting a bit more of a straight to the point, instant gratification kind of app so I was confused and skeptical at first and it took me a good minute to really learn and get used to everything, but I made sure to give it a shot cause I could tell it had more than meets the eye, how there was so much thought and depth put into the making of this app. I was only just wanting a straight forward steep timer at first but I’ve found that the more I’ve learned about the app, the more I’ve come to realize I perfectly click with its interface and all the features I didn’t even know I needed. From listing all the tea specifications, logging your thoughts every time you drink, and even logging what you use to drink too (very helpful), it gets freedom of customization down to the T. The app really is just a love letter for tea lovers, it was made with so much care and consideration that it goes above and beyond what you could hope from a tea app, and above all it works really well. I’ve gone from being stubborn at first, not buying into the idea of tea apps all this time, to now having discovered a whole elaborate tea journal in the process and it’s made me so much more excited to indulge in my habitual tea drinking and explore all the different teas out there.

The idea for the app is great and offers a lot of great features however, I just want to see on my home tab a list of the teas that I’ve entered so I can quickly select one and set the brew timer. This current layout is too complicated to quickly get to the brew section. I don’t want to have to enter the temperature and infusion time every time I brew the same tea.

I cannot more highly recommend this app!
