anyone try the new cigar iPhone app? I was browsing for 'cigar' and found 2, but one is new.


It looks pretty cool. I have to wait till I get home as it is too big to download straight to me phone.

I will post a review when I get a chance to try it out.

I'm gonna' check it out right now!

EDIT:
First Impression: Not bad for a free app at all, some pretty cool features.
Home is the "Cigar Diary" which has your basics: hot to light, cut, store cigars, etc...
Tasting notes option which is really cool and what I've been waiting for! You can input your cigars info, and write your own review. You can even take or use a photo from your photo's on your phone, which is really nice. Not only for cigar either, you can choose between Cigars, Wine, Whiskey, Tea, and Coffee.
My Humidor is also an option which is really useful! It allows you to store and keep track of your supply. Brand, Name, Cigar Box Pic, # of sticks, type, gauge, length, rating, than a space for personal notes.
The problem I see so far is that it really limits the cigars you can search to find out about the ratings and flavor/notes. You have all your famous ISOM names, Fuentes, Padron, and that's about it. I really like the "My Humidor" option, though.

Final thought: Since it's free, what is there to lose to begin with? I think it's awesome to keep track of your cigars and reviews when you smoke them. The Cigar Diary is good for any beginners that don't know to much about cigars and want to learn the basics. I haven't read through it all to give a good opinion on it's legitimacy I guess you can say. Not so good if you want to know ratings on any cigars besides famous names. I suggest getting it, pretty useful app!

I downloaded it as well. Seems pretty good for a free app, but like was said above very limited on the NC side of cigars. I will spen somemore time with it and see if I will keep it or not.

I am not likeing when I have to add in cigars to My Humidor.

So I started with some Tat's, I have 1 Black CG and 1 Robusto left and I have to make a new tab for each. So it looks like I have two seperate Black Tat's not one CG and 1 Robusto. I will play some more but I migth keep it for the reading.
