Mixing App - Your App, Your Say

Just a little update for those who are using or considering the POTV mixing application.

Version 1.2 will introduce a database for managing your Mixes.

Mixes are currently stored in a flat file (like a text file) which although fine for current functions, does present some limitations going forward. This change will look to bring these features in future versions:
1. Add, Update and Delete - No longer limited to just saving, now you can manage and change your mixes.
2. Sorting by Name.
3. Add Brand Names to Flavours.

The application will migrate your current saved mixes to the database so you shouldn't lose any of your favourite saved mixes.

Estimated release time: One week.

Look at you code! code monkey
 
Cheers Peeps :)

Was thinking of some more enhancements last night. Ooooh so many options.
 
I am just going to put these out there and see what others think but I would love to have these in an Android app.




  1. The ability to add amounts in both drops and ml and default settings for final ratio and drops/ml.
  2. A setting for recipe author.
  3. A rating system and the ability to share via email, facebook, forums, text or W.H.Y. and export the recipes in csv or text format.
  4. A database of your bases and flavours and the amount and costs of each you have which updates if you tell it you are mixing the recipe and reminds you to order more when they get low and which outputs the cost of each recipe.
  5. A shopping list so you can remember things you plan on buying next order.
  6. Shopping link bookmarks with description text to remind yourself what they sell.

Wow, quite a list. Ok, here are my thoughts on the items:
1. Can you clarify this - Are you looking to reverse the calculation as such so ou can say "I used 10 drops of X, 4 drops of Y and so on"?
2. See below.
3. I will look to add a copy function as such, so you can copy the results to the clipboard and paste wherever you want. This will handle the author piece (above) as your social app will handle the integration.
I will consider an export / import feature but this will be a but later on as I pulled a feature in dev due to unreliability issues.
4. I will look into the cost feature. I do not believe the stock level would be used by most - See what the feedback is.
5. Another feature I suspect will not be used much. It could be a separate page as such. Lets see what the feedback is.
6. Would be too dynamic as such. Shops chop and change stocks a lot and I am sure that many people purchase based on price and availability so typically the stockist you choose will also change.

I think reverse engineering as such would be a good feature so when you adjust you can see what ya end up with both mg and % wise on flavours just my thoughts
