bartender.live2.3.3 - App Store

bartender.live tells you what you can make with what you already have.

Check off the bottles in your bar and the app narrows a library of more than a thousand cocktails down to the ones you can pour tonight - complete, with nothing missing. Free.

WHAT'S FREE
- The whole drink library, with photos, honest measures, glassware, and the story behind each drink. New recipes almost every day.
- My Bar: track as many bottles as you like, synced across your devices with iCloud.
- I Can Make: the filter that started it all. One tap and you see only the cocktails your shelf can already pour.
- Favorites and sharing: keep the good ones and send the recipe to whoever is thirsty.
- Ingredient pages: what each bottle is, how it tastes, and every drink that calls for it.

TOP SHELF
One purchase, kept forever, no subscription:
- The Almost filter: every cocktail you are exactly one bottle away from making, with the bottle named.
- Home Screen widgets.
- The daily cocktail suggestion.
- Suggestions limited to what you can actually make.
- Custom icons for your favorites.

FOUNDERS

Version History Top Shelf purchases now tell you what happened if something doesn't go through, instead of just resetting silently. Restore Purchases also lets you know when it can't find a previous purchase. 2.3.3 Sep 28 Fixed an issue where tapping Buy on Amazon could open the Amazon app instead of the product page. Buy links now open in a built-in browser so you stay in bartender.live. 2.3.2 Sep 24 Bug fixes and performance improvements. 2.3.1 Sep 15 Your bar, updated from the recipe you are reading.

- Every ingredient on a cocktail now has a switch. Flip it and that bottle joins My Bar, and your "I Can Make" and "Almost" lists follow along.
- An A to Z index down the side of the Drinks and My Bar lists.
- The new-drinks badge now appears on the New list itself, not only on the tab. Thanks to the reader who wrote in to say it was a mystery.
- Search matches the beginning of words, so "Mai Tai" finds Mai Tais instead of every recipe that happens to say "cocktail." Accents no longer matter either.
- When a drink is one bottle away, that bottle is now named for everyone.

Cheers! 2.3.0 Aug 31 Faster, and easier to find what you want.

- Search now matches ingredient names, and multi-word searches combine terms, so "Gin Campari" finds Negronis.
- New Almost teasers show how close a drink is when you are browsing the full library.
- New installs open with the whole library already loaded, and lists load their images instantly.
- The widget now shows your latest drink even when you are offline.
- Fixes an issue where Top Shelf status could carry over from another install.

Cheers! 2.2.4 Aug 22 Speed. This update makes bartender.live feel instant:

- New installs open with the full drink library already loaded - no first-launch wait.
- Drink lists and cards now load their images instantly and cache them, so scrolling is smoother and uses less data.
- The widget shows your latest drink even when you are offline.

Faster, lighter drink-library updates behind the scenes, plus assorted fixes and refinements.

Thanks for pouring with bartender.live. Cheers! 2.1.4 Jul 29 Your bar just got a top-to-bottom polish:

- Spotlight now shows the cocktail photo right in your search results. Find a drink by name and see it before you even open the app.
- New Dark and Tinted app icons to match your Home Screen style.
- Tapping a drink in the widget now opens it exactly like tapping it in the Drink Library, instead of a pop-up card.
- New "Reset My Bar" option in Settings clears every ingredient toggle in one tap. Your favorites stay right where they are.
- New "Only Suggest Drinks I Can Make" option keeps Suggest a Drink to cocktails you can actually pour.
- Tag pills now wrap cleanly instead of breaking mid-word.
- Drinks stay marked "new" for two days instead of four, so the New list stays fresh.
- Much faster and smoother throughout: quicker launches, snappier ingredient toggles, and fixes for freezes and battery drain.
- Fixed a bug that could show every ingredient twice in a recipe.

This update makes Dark Mode fully legible throughout the app. The selected filter on the Drinks screen, the tab bar, and other controls that could look washed-out or disappear in Dark Mode now have proper contrast in both light and dark. Includes behind-the-scenes reliability improvements.
