Cmon Jeff!!
Any thoughts? Still like an Android app! The best scenario would be: Sitting at home at my desk building a recipe, sending the recipe up in "the cloud", going down to my brewing cellar uploading the recipe on my tablet or smartphone (both running on android), and start brewing... Come on!!

And IOS is not the thing anymore... ;)

That is an ideal scenario! I've been working day and night on the BeerTools "cloud" API. So far I have been able to successfully create, edit and delete folders on the cloud using the next major version BeerTools Pro. The next step is to develop the code to upload a recipe to the server and store it. The process takes some time because it involves developing new features within BTP, creating the "language" for talking to the server and scripting the API for handling things server side. The advantage of a BeerTools-centric "cloud" is that it will allow the sharing of recipes with other BeerTools members designated as "buddies" and selecting the sharing level for each recipe. Cool stuff IMO 8)

Really Jeff, when one considers where BT started from you have done a great job and continue to do so...

As always though everyone simply wants more from you...

Look forward to playing with the new version :-)

I like the use of tabs for Ingredients/Equipment/Schedule/etc.

Amen! I would pay extra money for an android app! Even moreso if the App could do what BeerTools does. Desktop software is so 90's...
