About Oyster Snob
Oyster Snob is a personal tasting journal and raw bar companion built for oyster lovers. REMEMBER EVERY OYSTER Log the oyster name, origin, farm, restaurant, size, texture, photos, and your own tasting notes. Give each oyster an overall rating out of ten and add optional Snob Scores for salinity, sweetness, brine, minerality, and creaminess. IMPORT PAST RATINGS Paste an existing ratings list into Settings, review the detected names and scores, and add the selected tastings to your journal. Oyster-guide enrichment can fill in origins and flavor details while preserving your ratings. FIND THE RIGHT ORIGIN Search by oyster name and review matching origins before saving. This helps distinguish oysters that share a name but come from different bays, farms, or regions. SCAN A RAW BAR MENU Use a live camera scan, choose a menu photo, or paste menu text. Oyster Snob ranks the detected oysters using your saved ratings, taste history, preferred flavors, and size priorities. Unrated oysters receive an informational profile so you can compare the whole menu. LEARN YOUR PALATE Your evolving taste profile changes with every rating and repeat tasting. Discover whether you lean toward West Coast sweetness, New England brine, mineral finishes, creamy cups, or another pattern entirely. Palate and Connoisseur scores reflect how distinct your preferences are and how broadly you have explored. MAP THE COAST See the origins of oysters in your journal on an interactive map and revisit the regions behind your favorites. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, advertising, or tracking. Your journal, tasting notes, and photos remain on your device. Internet access is used to retrieve oyster facts when needed. Oyster facts and recommendations can be incomplete or inaccurate. Confirm important details with the restaurant, grower, or producer.
What’s new
Version 1.0.3 · Updated July 17, 2026
Sort your oyster journal by tasting date or alphabetically, with tasting dates now shown on every entry. This update also prevents stale scans and lookups from replacing newer results, makes photo and imported-rating tasks more reliable, caps each entry at six photos, and improves map framing for oyster locations around the world.
