I used to use CigarBoss... but I didn't update for a long time and moved before just losing track completely. Not even sure if it's still a maintained app or not.
I downloaded cigarboss and social humidor. Not sure I like either one, but I'm using social humidor more. I don't know how often they update newly released cigars because when doing inventory some of mine can't be found on their list. And I have not figured out a way to just type in a custom cigar name. I think you have to choose from their list.
So bottom line is I don't know if I really like either. But I like having a list of what I have and I make notes on them in the app as I smoke them.

right now cigargeeks in a web browser still beats all the other apps and sites
this deserves a better iPad app than currently exists, someone needs to look at the excellent Pipe Tool for pipe tobacco inventory and make something as good for cigars

I used to use Cigar Boss as well but at certain times it takes too long to load esp. if you are one that uses it a lot. The more info stored in the app the more it takes to load unless you have a phone with enough memory and power to bring it up almost on command. There are some useful places to store your info and there are Forums where they have virtual humidors that store YOUR info and can be accessed by your phone....it's easier for loading purposes since your info isn't stored in your memory but it is safe when stored with that Forum. PM for info if you like.....I know of one Forum that has the best Virtual Humidor anywhere.
I just made a spreadsheet with all the data I wanted to capture, including when I bought it, where, box date, price paid, when it was smoked, detailed rating info, and tasting notes. It's a google docs spreadsheet, so I can access it on my phone via an app or using any computer. It's way better than any app I've tried.
Any chance of sharing the spreadsheet with me would like to see how you formatted it.

I have Rate My Cigar and My Humidor. Neither is bad, but not great either.
I tried to use cigar boss a year or so ago but finally gave up. Now I don't keep track at all. When you keep your Inventory you lose the "I forgot I had that one" Surprise when you go rummaging
I use an Excel spreadsheet that I update at work. Also, keep a fluid list of all the ones I've smoked in order of favorites. It's quite subjective though.
CigarBoss
I use cigar boss for my humidor inventory. Previously used it for notes and ratings but notes don't stay (ie wasted my time). 1-5 star rating stays but on sticks not in their database it's somewhat useless. You can enter your own cigar entry for newer sticks but then when you try to star rate it, the app defaults to some ashton or other unrelated stick. Still works to keep a rough inventory.
Us evernote for cigar tasting notes.

I have cigar boss installed and spent a day going through my collection but never got them all in and eventually quit keeping track. I pretty much know what I have and dont have. If I have any doubts I get off my butt and go look before buying more. Its difficult to keep tabs on 3K+ sticks but I do keep them fairly well organized so I can check if Im out of one of my favs and reorder. Other than that it is nice to find the occasional straggler you forgot you had.
