I like your start, but I also like to record the (1)source, (2)price/cigar and what (3)sampler/size of pack etc. it was from...and actually record it on the tag I put on each stick. As, although I have yet to prove to myself that 5 packs smoke different from boxes, but some believe they do. Just the more details one can record about it, the easier to query for commonalities, etc. As well, then when i do smoke one, say it was from a bomb or trade or whatever, then i would know and could give the sender the feedback, or atleast know where it was from, etc.
One of the big issues with a cigar inventory app is actually having pretty much every cigar in the database. This is really hard, especially if the developer (development team) has to maintain it with every new cigar that comes out and somehow put in every cigar that already exists. Cigargeeks.com has a nice online database, but any user can submit cigars to be added. If one person had to somehow manage that, well, good luck. Perhaps partnering up with someone like them that already has a fully populated and constantly updated database would help with that huge obstacle. Just a thought.
I look forward to the beta. I've tried a couple on my android, but don't care for them. Each one has good points, but none of them have it all.
One thing that I would like is the ability to interact between my tablet and my phone-a shared or linked account over the web if you will.
As large a database of cigars, or at least manufacturers/brands as possible would help. One app I tried didn't have Liga Privada, and so I went looking for Drew Estates and it didn't have it either. I was on my phone, and it was too small to use with that software interface, so I went to my tablet, and it wasn't available, I'm assuming because it requires "phone access" for one portion of the software.
I was looking for an android app for cigar inventory and I found this thread. sorry so late to the party but is it still going on?? I would like to see the final product. or its name so I can search for it. so here is my 2 cents. I do a lot of online shopping for cigars and there are thousands of them to choose from. I get variety packs and then I have a hard time figuring out what is what. If you could link the app with the cigar.com inventory or another one, I could buy cigars, download the inventory of what I bought, then smoke them and rate them. I would like to keep track on the computer as well as the android (the data base being synced). also, if it was with a database, I could pick what I wanted next and order it quickly. getting old and eyesight not what it should be, the phone is small to read for any length of time. But I would use it to go the cigar shop and show them a pic of what I wanted (or description) so I could buy it if I did not have the time to wait for the online shipping. thanks. steelbuckeye89-web@yahoo.com
