Hello Vino: Wine Assistant
Wine Picks, Ratings & Scanner
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Simple. Beautiful. Helpful. Drink smarter and become a wine expert with the Hello Vino Wine Assistant app.
Hello Vino is your virtual wine assistant. Buying wine is fun and easy with Hello Vino's recommendations for food and wine pairings, special occasions and personalized wine picks based on your taste preferences.
-- HOW IT WORKS --
Similar to getting help from a wine expert, simply tap through Hello Vino's question-and-answer interface to find the perfect bottle for thousands of meals, special occasions, and flavor profiles.
The Hello Vino app uses artificial intelligence to learn about your wine preferences. As you tap through the choices, scan wine labels and rate your favorites, the app will make new wine recommendations based on your activity and settings.
Wine should be fun, not overwhelming or intimidating. Hello Vino has a strict NO SNOBS ALLOWED policy.
-- APP FEATURES --
RECOMMENDATIONS - Choose your wine buying occasion (dinner, party gift, etc.) or provide your taste preferences (example: red wine, fruity, cherry flavors), and Hello Vino will recommend the perfect bottle.
WINE FOR YOU - Wine is personal, and so is Hello Vino. Get personalized wine picks by setting your price range and specific taste preferences.
FOOD & WINE PAIRINGS - Tap into Hello Vino's incredible database of food and wine pairings. Simply choose your dish, then the app will tell you the best wine for the meal.
WINE LABEL SCANNER - Scan wines, save personal notes and ratings to remember all of your favorites.
COMMUNITY WINE RATINGS - Consumer ratings on wines contributed by our community of more than 2 million Hello Vino app users.
WINE GUIDE - An incredible dictionary of wine varieties with audio pronunciations, flavor profile descriptions and food pairings (with recipes powered by BigOven).
WINE GIFT IDEAS - Need wine recommendations for a special occasion (date night, holidays, dinner with the boss)? We've got you covered.

more I’ve had this app probably since its release, or early in after being released, and it has not failed me through all of these years. It has helped me keep tabs of my favorite wine and find wine when I wasn’t sure what I wanted. Everyone should have this app and share it with their friends! ;-)

This app is pretty disappointing. I had such high hopes, as the star rating was high, and the number of reviewers was high as well. I paid $3 to have adds removed, however every time you enter the app, I am hit with a full page add to sign up and save. Then I paid $5 to be able to take scans, because this is not a basic feature. You either enter an email address for a limited number, or pay for unlimited. Neither is worth it, as the feature doesn’t work properly. It takes a while to load. When it does I’ve experienced 3 issues 1) it can’t find my wine 2) the wine title is populated to the search field, making you think it found the wine, but you get a pop up saying the wine can’t be found 3) the wine is found, however when I try to select nothing happens. I would expect that after paying the amounts I did that I would t have anything to complain about.
Developer Response Hello, BrtllyHnst. It sounds like you are definitely experiencing some unusual bugs. We'd like to investigate and help resolve the issues. Can you please email help@hellovino.com ASAP? We'll assist you right away.

There seems to be a problem with the app. Tried for the last two days to create an account but no luck. Never gets out of “loading” mode. Someone needs to investigate and resolve.
Developer Response And.... fixed! We won't bore you with the technical details, but let's just say one of the hamsters came off its wheel. Please go ahead and complete your account registration, and then would you consider updating this written review and rating? Cheers!

Other huge improvements include a streamlined label scanner and "My Wines" notebook to save and remember your favorites. And... we're thrilled to introduce the new Hello Vino Wine Club, where you can have personalized wine shipments delivered every month (and of course you can easily pay with Apple Pay).
We are so excited to re-launch the app. Please send all questions and feedback to hello@hellovino.com and we'll get back to you right away.
