No notes! :) … Maybe one note. The iCloud sync across the app for my iPhone and iPad mini doesn’t seem to work, so I can only access my starter info from my phone where I started using this, but I’m sure this review will prompt the app creator to update the issue, since they seem to be so responsive every time I have another issue! I enjoy using this otherwise and find it extremely helpful for tracking my bakes and starter life. 👍
Developer Response
Hi Eggbunni,Thank you so much — it genuinely means a lot to hear that the app has become part of your baking routine.To clarify on the iCloud feature: it currently works as a manual Backup & Restore rather than a live sync. Your iPad won't automatically mirror what's on your iPhone — you'd need to back up on one device, then restore on the other. We know that's not the seamless experience you were expecting — true automatic cross-device sync is a bigger architectural change, but we've noted it. Also, we really appreciate you taking the time to write this up — it genuinely helps us prioritize.If you haven't tried that flow yet, would you give it a quick test? On your iPhone, open Settings → "Back Up Now". Then on your iPad mini, install the app, go to Settings → "Restore". Your starters and feeding history should come through.If the manual backup or restore itself fails for you, please let us know — that would be a real bug and we'd fix it right away. Thanks again for sticking with us!
Exactly what i needed

This app is a must for anyone maintaining a sourdough starter. Takes the guess work out of it and makes certain you stay on track to produce amazing bread. The support line is amazing - i recently submitted a feature request and an update was push to the App Store within days. I work for A FAANG company and this velocity to production was amazing. Keep it up
Developer Response
Jamie, thank you so much for the kind words! It means a lot coming from someone who understands what goes into shipping software. Your feature request genuinely made the app better for everyone — that's the kind of collaboration we love. More exciting updates are on the way. Happy baking!
Perfect & Simple

I use this app every time I bake. I love the calculator for starter amounts as well as target amounts. Totally worth it if you do sourdough often to pay for the app. I enjoy adding pictures to my record keeping.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for the kind review, Adhdbaker! It's great to hear you're using the calculator for both starter and target amounts — that's exactly the workflow we designed it for. And we love that the photo feature is helping you keep a visual baking journal. Happy baking! 🍞
Love!!

I LOVE this app, it helps me keep track of the starter feedings. Although I do with they gave some more options for smell especially for people who just started because it’s hard to tell just incase if it is going bad..
Developer Response

That’s great feedback, and I’ll definitely keep it in mind as I continue improving the app.Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience — it really helps.
