<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>The Whiskey Detail view in WhiskeyMate displays everything you need to know about a specific bottle in your collection—from front and back images to tasting notes, price stats, ABV, and more. Whether you’re on iOS or Android, you can view, edit, and share a bottle’s details all in one place.</p>
<h2>Steps to Access the Whiskey Detail</h2>
<ol>
<li>
<strong>Locate the Whiskey</strong>: Tap any bottle from your Collection View, Shared Collection View, Whiskey Feed, Search Results, or Wish List to open its detail page.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Explore Bottle Photos</strong>: You’ll typically see front and back images. Tap a photo (if available) to view it in full screen. You can add or update images if you have them on your device.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Review Ratings & Flavor Profile</strong>: Scroll to see star ratings, community data, and a flavor profile visualization. Tap or expand the flavor profile if you want to adjust its intensities or add tasting descriptors.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Check Bottle Details</strong>: View or edit information like:
<ul>
<li><strong>ABV & Proof</strong></li>
<li><strong>Brand & Subtitle</strong></li>
<li><strong>Vintage & Aged</strong></li>
<li><strong>Batch/Barrel & Bottle Number</strong></li>
<li><strong>Volume & Price</strong></li>
<li><strong>Notes</strong> (tasting notes, personal comments, etc.)</li>
</ul>
Each field often has an edit button or navigation link that lets you quickly update it.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Change Quantity</strong>: If your bottle count changes, use the <em>“Increment”</em> or <em>“Decrement”</em> options. If you go below one bottle, the app may ask if you want to remove the bottle entirely from your collection.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Sharing & Other Actions</strong>:
<ul>
<li><strong>Share Link</strong>: Tap the share icon or link to send bottle details to friends via text, email, or social media.</li>
<li><strong>Report Content</strong>: If any details are incorrect or inappropriate, you can flag them for review.</li>

</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<h2>Troubleshooting & Tips</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Missing Photos?</strong> Tap the camera or photo library icon to upload your own.</li>
<li><strong>No Barcode?</strong> You can manually enter details for a bottle without a barcode. Use the brand, subtitle, or any unique ID you prefer.</li>
<li><strong>Editing Not Saving?</strong> Confirm you have an internet connection so changes can sync with the cloud.</li>
<li><strong>Flavor Profile Adjustment</strong>: If you don’t see the option to update intensities, make sure you’ve specified a spirit type (e.g., Whiskey, Rum, etc.).</li>
<li><strong>Overflowing Collection?</strong> Non-Premium users have a limit on the total bottle count. Consider upgrading for unlimited additions and more images.</li>
</ul>
