OMG! OMG! OMG! Like, OMG! Drync is in the new iPhone commercial!
Ok, so it’s just our icon, but it’s there on TV and on the web in the new ad! Check it out, it’s the new “Read” ad, about half way through.
Wow. *Phew* Glad I got that out of my system.
We’ve had literally hundreds of feedback requests for new features. This makes us very happy. It means people are using the app and care enough to make their opinion known.
Here’s a brief glimpse of our next release, followed by a usability question. Please send us your comments!

The good news - we’re gunna do most of them (and some other cool stuff), in our next release.
The question I’d like to put out there is around “Cellar filtering”. Most of the wine apps, whether on the web or phone, allow you to choose one or more categories to filter by i.e. region, style, grape, year. You apply the filter and get a new list. It’s pretty straightforward, but not very “iPhone-like” and doesn’t allow for filtering on other text that may exist in a wine record, like your personal notes.
Another approach would be to put a ’search’ box up there and let users type in whatever they want. We could enable type-ahead for common filtering terms to reduce typing on the iPhone. This approach is super flexible for the user, a very common iPhone paradigm, but requires typing, which many iPhone users despise.
What do you think? Send us your thoughts - it’ll make a difference, I promise.
