Frequently Asked Questions

What is Wine Scanner AI?

Wine Scanner AI is a mobile app for iOS and Android that acts as a digital sommelier. It uses a photo of a wine label to identify the wine and provide detailed information, tasting notes, food pairing suggestions, and a personal wine diary to remember your favorites.

How does the app work?

You take a photo of a wine label, and the app uses a combination of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and advanced AI models (like those from OpenAI and Google) to identify the wine. It then fetches comprehensive data from its database to provide you with a full profile of the wine, including grape variety, region, tasting notes, and food pairings.

Is the app available on both iOS and Android?

Yes, the app is available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

What kind of information does the app provide after a scan?

After scanning, you get a rich profile of the wine, including its name, winery, grape variety, region, style, detailed taste profile, origin, serving temperature, and alcohol content. It also suggests food pairings and provides a general price estimate and a detailed description.

How accurate is the wine recognition?

The app is built to be highly accurate, but its success depends on the clarity of the photo and the uniqueness of the label. In some cases, especially with obscure or homemade wines, the recognition may fail or provide limited information. Taking a clear, well-lit photo of the full label is the best way to ensure accuracy.

Can I save my scanned wines?

Yes, the app features a personal wine diary or journal where you can save and remember all the wines you've scanned. However, access to your full saved collection is a premium feature that requires a subscription.

Is Wine Scanner AI free to use?

The app is free to download and allows for a limited number of scans. Access to advanced features, such as your full saved wine diary, food pairings, and the removal of ads, requires a subscription to the Pro version.

How much does the Pro version cost?

The Pro version is available through a subscription, with pricing typically around $4.99 per month or $41.99 per year. These prices may vary slightly based on your region and the specific app store.

What are the benefits of a Pro subscription?

Subscribing to the Pro version unlocks full access to all features, including your complete wine diary, detailed food pairing suggestions, wine list scanning, and an ad-free experience. The subscription supports ongoing development and improvements to the app's AI and database.

What should I do if a wine isn't recognized?

First, try taking a clearer, well-lit photo of the entire label. If it still doesn't work, please send the label including wine's name or key details. The app's database is always growing, and your feedback on unrecognized wines helps improve its accuracy for everyone.

Where can I get support or provide feedback?

You can contact the developer directly via email. The primary support email is feedback@winescanner.ai. The developer is very active in the community and values user feedback for improving the app's UI/UX and features.
