Latest reviews of World Cheese Encyclopedia app for iPhone and iPad

buy a book - very basic
No French category, very limit information. Not worth downloading. Disappointed to say the least.
Not as good as I had hoped
I am the kind of person who can spend hours reading about cheese, which is why I bought it in the first place. One of the first things I was struck by was how poorly this app is laid out. You really ought to categorise your cheese by type, rather than by name, so if I want, say, a Gouda-esque cheese, I can find it without having to sort through a bunch of Brie. I would also much appreciate it if you could decrease the margin on each entry a little bit. In its current state, I find it slightly hard on my eyes. You are, in my opinion, almost worthy of a fifth star (which, seeing as how this is your only review, is something you kind of need). Keep up the good work!
Way too small
I bought it, fired it up, and it failed. Two common cheeses I eat often, Drunken Goat and Sainte Honore, werent even listed. I think its quite reasonably laid out, and there seems to be a nice entry for each cheese, but the database is way too small.
Good but...
It has good information and you can easily search by country but I dont see French cheeses anywhere, huge gap!
