BC Liquor Stores App Reviews

Lost my lists

Like other reviewers, this app lost all the lists I have put in over the last couple of years. Just empty placeholder pictures where the wine label, ratings and notes used to be. Very, very sloppy programming. Does anyone at BC Liquor Stores care?

A bloated app

This app is stated as being 12mb in size, today April 11th it is 127mb in size on my phone. No other retail store app I have is anywhere close to that size. Every day it wants to download download more, its been as large as 154mb. Please streamline this app so it stores its data on a server not my phone.

Favorites gone!

Can I get them back somehow?

Was good now awful

Lost my favorites with an update - terrible development team to blame.

Useless

This stupid useless app wont load after it updates. Ive deleted it from my phone and I wont put it back on!!!! EVER! Since it wont accept zero stars I gave it 1 default star.

App works ok

This app is good however when I updated I lost all my favs. Bummer since I had spent a lot of time putting them in. Other than that its pretty good but I hope they fix that. The other thing BC Liquor needs to do is set up user accounts on the main site so I can access my cellar there too. And I would use that as Im sure many others would. Also user reviews should be allowed. As it is now its just a star system. This is ok but you dont get any idea if the people voting know much about the wine or not. Thanks for the app though.

Title?

Love this app. I am learning so much from the wine selection! Thanks!

Excellent App

Does everything you want it to and more.

Needs fixing

A previous version used to ask if I wanted to update the data when the app was opened. The last couple versions force an update and wont even let you use the app unless you have a data connection. There are times when I have been without data and wanted to look up a wine or save one I am tasting to my favourites. Neither can be done without a connection. The choice to update needs to be brought back. Previously a 5 star app. Now a 2 star due to this limitation.

What happened?

I guess it was someones Friday and creating an app that, for a passion of so many people was not on their minds! Do yourself a favour and keep on browsing

Does what it does

A great app if you know what you are searching for. Wanted Parallel 49 12 pack, located it at my local LDB. -30-

Could have been Great!

Yes, it could have been great and in fact was a one time. I used to rave about it and tell all my friends until the forced update erased all my carefully created lists. The favourites from special evenings, gifts from friends that reminded me of them and then my wish list. All I had was the correct number of my favorites and a sad empty label-less bottle. I was distraught and even wrote in for help thinking it was a correctable blip. No one responded to my plea. After reading these reviews I now know I wasnt alone. Not quite on the scale of sending the Hubble into Deep Space with a faulty mirror but really! Still useful and I like the scanning feature a lot . Hopefully the forced update lost lists issue can be fixed and trust restored.

Great app

Great app to find whatever you are looking for in BC, turn location on and it will tell you where it is nearby and how many they have

Use it all the time

This app is great to use when looking for a particular product. It shows how many bottles are available at each outlet, saving driving to a location to find they dont have that product in stock. The inventory is updated every day. I also like it for trying out new wines, as I read the consumer ratings to decide which ones I choose. The "my cellar" feature is great to keep track of products that are your favourites and which ones you want to try in the future. You can also easily use the bar code scanner to add a product to your wish list.

Indispensable!

Use it all the time when shopping for wine.

Barcode bunked

The scan barcode and enter barcode features dont work any more. Please fix.

Ive seen better

Clunky and hard to navigate. Error message when sharing on Facebook. I scanned a bottle, found the product but cant add it in my favorites.

Great job BCL

Real time stock, location based store finder and hours, custom lists, near daily catalogue updates, and more. I really couldnt ask for a better app, except maybe user reviews (has ratings). I even see staff using it.

Indispensable

High functionality - accurately tells me closest available locations for any wine, plus stock levels. A real time saver.

Browsing site

Very challenging to browse the site. The site is very sensitive and jumps around how to narrow done the selection.
