Just a few drawbacks
The iron dukage
Love the app. I'm able to come up with a complete brew-day plan and everything is very easy to use / see. But not being able to sync between devices is a pretty big problem for various and obvious reasons. I would be more inclined to purchase the unlimited recipes option (currently just purchased the 30 slots) if I felt like the devs were working toward the sync thing. Until then it just kind of feels like it's second fiddle to beersmith (similarly priced). Also, call me old school but some sort of desktop site would also be nice.
My go to brew calculator

I've tried a few different calculators over the years, but I always end up back at this one. Very clean format, great libraries, easy to use, and customizable enough for the more advanced home brewers. I wish it had a print function though. Come brew day, it gets pretty messy and I do a lot of scribbling with pencil and paper.
Good app for recipes

I’m a new brewer so I can only speak from this view. App is very good to track brews and their recipes. I do wish there was a desktop version to sync with, but the app helps a beginner understand how changing ingredients effects the beer. The free version that gives you 5 recipes is a nice way to get introduced. I would highly recommend - especially for the new brewers.
