more I tested a lot of wine apps and finally found the right one. I always stuck with the same few bottles and couldnt really find anything I liked, or actually, didnt know how to find it. Sommo actually tells me if I would like something or not. I just scan whatever I see in the wine section and voila. I had always wanted to explore and learn more about wine without making it a hassle or deal with snob workshops. Thanks to the quick quizzes in here I actually learned a lot. I feel like I can talk about tasting notes without feeling like a fraud. It’s become one of my favorite apps and everytime I go to buy wine I cant wait to scan everything I see with Sommo and find out what I can. Kudos to the developer.

I downloaded a handful of wine apps and have imported some of my favorite wines into them to cross-compare the apps and test them out. Ultimately, I’m seeking a wine “profile” that helps me better understand what kinds of wine I’m drawn to so I can be confidently more selective in the future.Sommo is fantastic and my favorite of all the apps I’ve tried! It has correctly identified niche wines that both Vivino and Delectable failed to find. The scanning feature works flawlessly and the graph-style testing notes is the perfect visual companion for each wine to help me understand what makes me like each one.I highly recommend!

This app is incredible! My wife and I are wine novices who have wanted to get more into wine, but the barrier to entry always felt a little intimidating. With this app, it feels like we have our own private sommelier wherever we go, minus the usual arrogance and condescension. The label-scanning feature is especially awesome and makes learning about wine actually fun. One of the best and most useful apps I’ve used in years. Thanks for leveling up our wine game!

This is simply my most used and favorite app. It is so useful, approachable, and easy to utilize immediately. This is my wine sidekick for everything from tasting wine and quickly journaling notes, or planning a dinner party, to organizing and learning more about all the wines I have at home!

YOUR MAP, CAUGHT UP
Open the region map and Sommo backfills every region you have already logged in your journal, so explored countries light up without scanning again. Matching for US appellations is sharper after a label scan.
WINE RACK REFINEMENTS
Tap a bottle on the Wine Rack for a cleaner overlay: View Wine first, Open Bottle when you are ready, full-width buttons that fit long translations, and tap outside the card to dismiss.
FEWER STALE REMINDERS
Retired notification schedules left pending alerts on some installs. Sommo clears anything it is not actively sending when you launch or return to the app.
ALSO NEW
- Faster map opens with smarter journal sync
- Translation and stability improvements across the app
1.7.9 1d ago
Routine improvements, bug fixes, and translation improvements.
1.7.8 3d ago
YOUR WINE STORY, IN ONE PLACE
Open Insights from your Profile, or tap See your insights at the top of your Journal or Cellar. Sommo charts your patterns (activity, ratings, colour mix, favourite grapes and regions), and with Premium adds an AI read on what to try next. Flip between Journal and Cellar when you both log and collect.
CHARTS FIRST, AI WHEN YOU ARE READY
The dashboard paints immediately with your stats while the narrative card loads in the background, so you are never stuck on a spinner. Tap any grape or region chip to open the same info sheet as after a scan.
WHAT SOMMO NOTICED ON GRAPES AND REGIONS
Every grape and region sheet now adds what Sommo noticed from your journal and cellar, plus similar wines to try tuned to what you already love. Premium connects your history to the next bottle worth exploring.
DRINKING WINDOWS YOU CAN TRUST
Recent purchases no longer show up as past their peak, and declining wines get their own cue separate from bottles that are genuinely over the hill. When Sommo is unsure, the label softens to May Be Past Peak. Tap the info button for a plain guide that explains vintage vs purchase date, and edit the vintage on any bottle if the label was wrong.
JOURNAL INSIGHTS AT THREE ENTRIES
Your journal insights and AI narrative unlock after three logged wines now, the same threshold as Wine Character Reading and Taste DNA.
CELLAR BOTTLES LOAD FASTER
Open a bottle from wine details or deep in a long cellar list and Sommo pages straight to it, with clearer errors if something goes wrong.
ALSO NEW
- Fixed a paywall flicker when opening Insights
- Continued performance and stability improvements
1.7.7 Jun 25
YOUR CELLAR ON A REAL RACK
Open Wine Rack from your cellar and see every bottle lying on wooden shelves, colour-coded by type with the foil showing its drinking window. Drag bottles to rearrange, tap to open details, and jump to a bottle from its page with View in Wine Rack.
MULTIPLE BOTTLES, ONE WINE
You can now stock several bottles of the same wine and place each one on the rack individually. Unplaced bottles stay in your list until you slot them, and the All Racks overview shows every shelf at a glance.
FIND THE RIGHT BOTTLE FASTER
Tap View in Wine Rack on any bottle's page and Sommo spotlights its slot with a gentle highlight. Open an unplaced bottle from your list and Sommo takes you straight to the one you chose.
ALSO NEW
- Recently Opened keeps bottles you have just uncorked handy for a quick rating
- Continued performance and stability improvements
1.7.6 Jun 23
DRINKING WINDOWS, REBUILT
We have rebuilt how Sommo judges when a wine is at its best. The too-young, ready, and past-its-peak read on every bottle is sharper now, and each bottle's page adds vintage intelligence on how strong the growing year was. You see at a glance which wines to lay down and which to pour tonight.
OPEN TONIGHT
A new pick on your cellar ranks the bottles most worth opening now, by readiness, not by meal. Flip on "include drink-soon bottles" to widen it to wines just past their peak that you should enjoy before they fade.
WINDOWS THAT LEARN YOUR PALATE
Rate the bottles you open and Sommo nudges future windows toward how wine actually tastes to you. Drink a wine you love while it is young, or hold out for more age, and the estimates shift to match.
SET HOW EACH BOTTLE IS STORED
Tell Sommo whether a bottle sits somewhere cool and steady or warm and swinging, and its window tightens to match. Warm, changeable storage ages wine faster, and now your windows know it.
HOW THE WINDOWS WORK
Tap the info button on any drinking window for a plain-language guide: the four stages a wine moves through, what Sommo weighs (structure, grape, region, vintage, producer, winemaking), why some windows are wider than others, and what it can never know about your exact bottle.
ALSO NEW
- Cellar cards show the producer and badges more clearly
- Continued performance and stability improvements
1.7.5 Jun 20
SOMMO NOW SPEAKS CHINESE
Sommo is now fully available in Simplified and Traditional Chinese, bringing it to nine languages alongside English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Turkish. As with every language, the whole app comes across: every screen, your WSET study, the learning modules, the region guides, and your AI tasting notes, food pairings, and character readings. Grape, region, and appellation names keep their original spelling, the way the wine world writes them.
CHOOSE YOUR LANGUAGE, OR FOLLOW YOUR PHONE
Open Profile, tap Language, and pick your own or let Sommo follow your phone. Set your device to a language Sommo now speaks and a gentle banner offers to switch the app to match. One tap, and your wine insights change over right away.
ALSO NEW
- Dates, numbers, and counts follow each language's own conventions
- Continued performance and stability improvements
1.7.4 Jun 18
SOMMO NOW SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE
Sommo is now fully available in German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Turkish, alongside English. The whole app translates: every screen, label, and prompt. Open Profile, tap Language, and choose your own or follow your phone, then Sommo switches over.
NOT JUST THE BUTTONS, EVERYTHING
Your learning travels with you. WSET flashcards, practice questions, and your daily revision, the learning modules, and the region guides all read in your language. Your AI tasting notes, food pairings, and wine character readings are written in it too. Grape, region, and appellation names keep their original spelling, the way the wine world writes them.
TAP ANY GRAPE OR REGION TO LEARN MORE
On a wine's details, the grape and region are now tappable. Open a grape for its character and pronunciation, or a region for what shapes its wines, each with a count of the wines in your journal that share it. In your language, of course.
A NUDGE WHEN YOUR LANGUAGE IS READY
Set your phone to a language Sommo now speaks and a gentle banner offers to switch the app to match. One tap, and your wine insights change over right away.
ALSO NEW
- Each language appears in its own name in the new Language setting
- Dates, numbers, and counts now follow your language's conventions
- Continued performance and stability improvements
1.7.3 Jun 11
NATIVE LAYOUT FOR IPAD
Sommo now lays out for the iPad instead of stretching the phone screen: readable column widths, multi-column grids, and a full-canvas wine rack and region map. It works in landscape, too, so taking notes, studying for WSET, or planning a flight all read clearly on the bigger display.
A CALMER CELLAR
Your cellar controls moved out of the cramped top bar into one roomy row: sort, filter, your rack, and meal pairing, each easy to reach. Sorting is a single tap now, with no accidental flips, Filter is clearly labelled and shows a count when it's on, and the cards above your bottles are lighter so the wines lead. The same tidy search and filters now run through your journal, the region map, and WSET prep.
EVERY BOTTLE, ITS OWN PAGE
Tap a bottle in your cellar, or open it from a wine's details, for a dedicated page: see where it sits on the rack, open one, edit the details, place or move it across racks, or remove it, each a single tap with an undo if you change your mind.
TYPED WINE NAMES, SHARPER
Adding a wine by name is smoother. Sommo reads the vintage straight from what you typed and no longer offers a confusing "None of these" when it isn't sure. Fewer taps, fewer dead ends.
ALSO NEW
- Wine-type and drinking-window colours refined for cohesion, with a wine-appearance legend on your profile to decode them
- White blends now show the right colour on the rack
- "Pair with my meal" wording on the Home pairing card
- Continued performance and stability improvements
Huge thanks to Abby, whose relentless feedback drove the cellar rework that anchors this release: the calmer controls, the new bottle page, the lighter layout. This one's yours, Abby.
1.7.2 Jun 1
TASTE DNA, NOW SHAREABLE
A new card on Home, built from your journal: a 6-axis palate fingerprint (body, sweetness, tannin, acidity, intensity, adventure), your dominant wine colour, top grape and region, and a signature style. Tap Share to send a clean wallpaper-sized card to friends. Updates every time you log a wine.
WSET CHAPTER FOCUS + AI CHAPTER DRILL
Topics Covered becomes Chapter Focus: every chapter is now a tile that opens chapter-scoped flashcards, practice quizzes, daily practice, and a new AI Chapter Drill that builds a fresh question set on the spot for that chapter and (on Level 3) sub-topic. Level 3 also gains around 30 new curated questions and sub-topic mastery chips so you can see where you stand.
ADAPTIVE CHEATSHEET + RICHER STUDY PLANS
The cheatsheet now leads with a personalised "Today's review" card weighted by your weak spots over the last 30 days, with badges on the sections you keep missing. AI study plans now factor in your missed typed-mode themes, your stickiest flashcards, your per-mode accuracy, the regions you actually drink (Level 3+), and a new days-to-exam target you can set.
EVERY WINE TYPE, ITS OWN COLOUR
Sparkling, orange, dessert, and fortified wines get dedicated colour accents across cellar, journal, and scan rows, with a small "Wine appearance" legend on Profile to decode them. Got a miscall? Tap a wine, correct its type, and Sommo learns and re-renders.
WINE DETAIL, REIMAGINED
Every wine page now leads with one library card: Journal and Cellar slots that either show what's already saved or offer a one-tap add. Scan history sits above as a small caption ("scanned 3 times, first this week"), and a gentle nudge appears when you're a couple of entries away from unlocking your Taste DNA.
SCAN RELIABILITY, REBUILT
Scans no longer hang or silently consume a credit on failure: clearer errors, durable credit refunds when a scan can't finish, and graceful partial results when the AI runs out of room mid-response.
ALSO NEW
- "Expand alternative" on scan results is now free
- Sharper sign-in errors when you've previously used the other provider
- Faster cellar pairing through parallel fetches
- A rebuilt AI layer behind the scenes for more predictable response times
- Continued security and stability hardening across the board
1.7.1 May 28
WINE TASTING MODE, NOW FAST AND FORGIVING
Logging a tasting is dramatically smoother. Completing a session drops from around 12 seconds to about 1, and the AI palate insight returns in roughly 8 seconds instead of 40. The moment you tap Complete, you actually see results.
Got a wine name or vintage wrong? Edit it any time, even after a session is complete. Sommo re-resolves the wine through AI and updates your journal entry to match, so what's on your tasting card is what's in your journal. A gear icon for session settings, a clearer pencil for per-wine edits, and no more orphan dots on wine subtitles when a producer or vintage is missing.
ADD A WINE BY NAME, EVERYWHERE
Label too faded to scan, or you already know the wine? "Add by Name" is now a top-level button on Home, Scan, and inside Tasting Mode. Type the name, pick from disambiguation candidates, choose a vintage, done. Same flow on every surface.
CLEANER HOME, CLEARER SCAN
The Home and Scan tabs got a coordinated refresh: neutral cards with colourful icons, sectioned grids (Add a wine, Pick the right wine, Experience), and Wine Character Reading tucks neatly into your member card.
EMPTY SCREENS THAT GUIDE YOU
Your Journal or Cellar empty? Sommo now shows your recent scans as one-tap shortcuts plus prominent Scan and Type buttons. Onboarding gains a "Type a Wine Name" option alongside the camera path, so first impressions match how you actually want to start.
ALSO NEW
- Favourite tasting venues, with a filter on the tasting list
- Add a wine to your journal directly from the cellar pairing suggestion
- Cellar pairing history flags wines you've already journaled
- Continued iPad polish across the new layouts
- Stability and latency improvements throughout
1.7.0 May 25
SOMMO ON IPAD
The most-requested platform expansion: Sommo now installs on iPad. The app runs on the larger screen, so every journal note, every rack, every flashcard reads clearly on a iPad display while you taste, study, or plan a flight. A native iPad layout with side-by-side panes is in the works for a future release.
A SMOOTHER SCANNER
Scanning multiple wines back to back is cleaner now. Previous scan details no longer linger between scans, so each new label lands a fresh result without leaving the Scan tab and coming back.
Huge thanks to Sandy for the iPad push, and to Brishen for the sharp eye on consecutive scans.
1.6.9 May 20
YOUR CELLAR, REIMAGINED: NAMED RACKS, AS MANY AS YOU NEED
Wine doesn't live in one place. Now your cellar doesn't either. Create a rack for every spot you actually store wine (Fridge, Cave, Dining Room, basement), each with its own name and its own grid. Switch racks from the chip strip above the grid, or open All Racks to see every shelf at once. Move bottles between racks with a single tap.
A SHARPER POST-SCAN VIEW
Scan a wine and Sommo instantly tells you what you already know about it: how many bottles you have, exactly where they're racked ("Cave · Row 2, Col B"), whether it's in your journal, and how many times you've scanned it before. No more rediscovering bottles you forgot you owned.
CELLAR POLISH, EVERYWHERE
Next to Open on Home now opens a bottle in one tap, with separate quick-rate and view-details actions and crisp haptics throughout. Pairing suggestions name the actual rack ("Fridge · Row 2, Col B") instead of a generic label. Filter your cellar by unplaced bottles to clean up placement in seconds.
ALSO NEW
- Two new quick-taste tags: Fresh and Tart
- Snappier rack grid, no more empty placements when you have a lot of bottles
Huge thanks to Abby, whose relentless cellar feedback drove this entire rebuild: every rack, every label, every move.

1.6.7 May 18
WSET PRACTICE, REIMAGINED
Type your answers. Get graded by AI. Learn like a real student.
WSET practice now has two modes on every flashcard and quiz: Choice (multiple choice) or Type (free-text, AI-graded). Typing forces real recall, the way you'll actually answer on the exam, and Sommo's WSET-examiner AI tells you what you nailed, what you missed, and exactly how to tighten the answer.
Every mode now feeds the same study scheduler, so flashcards, quizzes, mock exams, and the new typed mode all push your weakest categories higher in the queue. Two new screens: Mastery and Insights, show your category breakdown, 7-day accuracy trend, and how you split your study time across modes.
Quizzes and mock exams now show the correct answer and the examiner's explanation after you submit, never before.
Type mode is Premium across all four WSET levels.
ALSO NEW: TYPE A WINE NAME (BETA)
Label too faded to scan, or you just remember the name? Tap "Type wine name" on the scan screen and Sommo identifies it from your query; confident match, a shortlist of candidates, or a best-effort save when the wine is truly obscure. Same tasting notes, food pairings, drinking window, and journal entry as a photo scan.
Huge thanks to Paul, who gave me the idea for typed practice and AI grading.
1.6.6 May 17
RECENTLY OPENED, RICHER CELLAR, FASTER AI
Pour a bottle and it stays with you. Every wine you open from your cellar now lands in a new Recently Opened section with three quick actions: Rate Now (which drops you straight into your journal), Undo (puts the bottle back), or Dismiss. Save it for later and Sommo nudges you 24 hours later; so you can rate when you've actually tasted, not the moment you uncork.
Wines added through Tasting Mode now get the full Sommo treatment in the background: vintage information, drinking window, food pairings, and producer history fill in automatically. No empty cards, no re-scanning.
A polished new colour story runs through every screen, wine-colour swatches on cellar and tasting cards, clearer "Young / Ready / Declining" cues, and a calmer brand palette from onboarding to paywall.
Plus a faster, smarter scanner: every label read is quicker, more accurate, and uses less data. Performance and stability improvements throughout.
Thanks to Abby for the relentless cellar feedback that shaped the new flow.
1.6.5 May 9
JOURNAL WITH PLACE & LABEL + TASTING MODE POLISH
Your journal remembers where. Log the vineyard, restaurant, or bar for every entry and filter your history by venue. Scanned wine labels now appear inside journal entries, wine details, and the cellar; so every bottle is recognisable at a glance.
Tasting Mode is sharper too:
- Swipe-to-delete and drag-to-reorder wines in a flight
- Expanded flavour tag library and a more compact tag chip
- Tap an active rating to clear it
- Clearer "add more wines" action
Plus: category-aware cellar search (try "white napa" or "sparkling"), a distinct icon for bottles not yet placed in your rack, and a longer 10-second undo when you open a bottle.
Huge thanks to Abby for the steady stream of feedback, and to Carolyne for the in-journal wine label request. This release is built on both.
1.6.4 Apr 23
Thanks for using Sommo. This release includes bug fixes and performance improvements, particularly related to the new Wine Tasting mode.
1.6.3 Apr 20
WINE TASTING MODE
Log an entire wine tasting flight in minutes. Scan the flight card and AI identifies every wine. Swipe through, quick-rate each one, add notes and flavour tags, mark favourites, and add bottles to your cellar.
When you complete a session, Sommo generates a personalised AI palate analysis and per-wine sommelier reviews that cross-reference your tags against how the wine actually tastes. Every tasting becomes a lesson.
Also in this update:
- List view for quick navigation through large flights
- Edit completed tastings and AI insights regenerate automatically
- Session metadata editing (venue, location, date, theme)
- Performance and stability improvements
Thank you to Abby for suggesting this feature. Hope it makes your next tasting even better.

YOUR CELLAR, YOUR WAY
Search your cellar by wine name, producer, region, or grape. Filter by drinking status — Ready Now, Approaching, Too Young, or Past Prime — with live counts on each chip. Sort by name, vintage, drinking window, price, quantity, rack position, or date added, and toggle ascending or descending with a tap.
Also in this update:
- Full-screen camera with tap-to-focus, flash, and flip
- Sort and filter preferences saved between sessions
- Performance and stability improvements
1.6.0 Apr 12
YOUR FIRST STEPS, GUIDED
A new activation checklist greets you after onboarding; scan a wine, add a journal entry, complete a lesson, and explore a region. Finish all four to earn the Journey Started badge.
Daily streaks now track your wine learning momentum. Hit milestones at 3, 7, 14, and 30 days.
Also in this update:
- Streamlined onboarding (fewer steps, guided first scan)
- Editable display name in account settings
- Security and stability improvements
1.5.9 Apr 12
REARRANGE YOUR WINE RACK
All bottles placed? The rack button now stays active. Tap it to enter rearrange mode: long-press any bottle and drag it to a new slot, or drop it on another bottle to swap their positions. A one-time tooltip guides you through the gesture.
Tap any bottle on the rack to view its details or remove it from the grid.
Also in this update:
- Performance and stability improvements
1.5.8 Apr 8
MULTI-BOTTLE RACK POSITIONS
Own three bottles of the same wine? Now you can place each one in its own rack slot. Add a wine to your cellar, then assign individual bottles to different positions on your grid. When you open a bottle, Sommo asks which one you're reaching for, so your rack stays accurate.
AI food pairing picks now show exactly where each recommended bottle sits on your rack.
ARCHIVE & SCROLL YOUR SCAN HISTORY
Scan history is now paginated, so you can scroll through every wine you've ever scanned. Long-press any scan to archive it and keep your list tidy.
FASTER, MORE RELIABLE MENU EXPANSION
Expanding a wine from a scanned menu is now significantly faster and returns proper error messages when something goes wrong, instead of generic failures.
Also in this update:
- Smarter error handling across cellar and menu features
- Performance and stability improvements
1.5.7 Apr 6
SMARTER MENU & SHELF SCANNING
Scan a restaurant wine list or store shelf and get 3 curated picks: the best overall, the best value, and the premium choice. Each pick comes with a detailed reason, highlights, and a score so you know exactly why it's worth ordering.
Dining out? Tell Sommo what you're eating and the picks are tailored to your meal. Shopping? Select the occasion — gift, date night, dinner party, celebration, BBQ; and Sommo recommends wines that fit.
Your taste history shapes every recommendation. The more you scan and journal, the better the picks get.
CELLAR GRID IMPROVEMENTS
Tap any bottle on your wine rack to see it at a glance: view the wine, or remove it from the position. You can now clear a bottle's grid position without removing it from your cellar.
Also in this update:
- Smarter journal reminders: multiple scans consolidate into one notification
- Richer wine details when expanding picks and alternatives
- Improved review prompt timing across more moments in the app
- Cleaner display names and paywall presentation
- Performance and stability improvements
1.5.6 Apr 6
DRINKING WINDOWS & CELLAR UPGRADES
Know when to open every bottle. Every wine scan now includes a drinking window: when to start, when it peaks, and when it's past its best. You'll also see aging potential, storage tips, and a confidence level so you know how reliable the prediction is.
Vintage intelligence built in. Each scan now returns a vintage quality rating, a summary of the growing season, character notes, and any notable conditions that shaped the wine. It's context you'd normally need a reference book for.
Your cellar, smarter. Cellar wines now show a drinking status: too young, approaching prime, in its prime, declining, or past prime, so you always know what to open next. A new "Next to Open" shortcut surfaces the most urgent bottle at a glance, and a dedicated Drinking Windows view ranks your cellar by urgency.
Track what you paid. Record the purchase price and currency for every bottle in your cellar. Prices display in your local format, and the currency picker covers all major options.
Grid view for your cellar. Organise your bottles visually with the new grid view. Set your rack dimensions, place wines by row and column, and swap positions with a tap. Bottles are colour-coded by drinking status so you can spot what needs attention at a glance.
CORRECT ANY VINTAGE: AI RE-ANALYSES EVERYTHING
Scanned a wine and the vintage was wrong? Tap "Change Vintage" on any wine scan or journal entry. Sommo re-analyses the entire wine: the drinking window, peak years, vintage intelligence, quality score, and description all regenerate for the correct year. A 2024 Barolo and a 1994 Barolo are very different wines; now the data matches the bottle you're actually holding. You can also change the region from the same screen.
Also in this update:
- Edit sheet for cellar wines: update notes, price, and position without leaving the list
- Push notifications when bottles enter their prime or start to decline
- Improved drinking window timeline visualisation
- Smarter badge notifications: compact toasts for common badges, full celebrations for rare ones
- Performance and stability improvements

YOUR MAP, CAUGHT UP
Open the region map and Sommo backfills every region you have already logged in your journal, so explored countries light up without scanning again. Matching for US appellations is sharper after a label scan.
WINE RACK REFINEMENTS
Tap a bottle on the Wine Rack for a cleaner overlay: View Wine first, Open Bottle when you are ready, full-width buttons that fit long translations, and tap outside the card to dismiss.
FEWER STALE REMINDERS
Retired notification schedules left pending alerts on some installs. Sommo clears anything it is not actively sending when you launch or return to the app.
ALSO NEW
- Faster map opens with smarter journal sync
- Translation and stability improvements across the app
