TheRick Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 Let me start by saying I have OCD and I know my idea is kinda stupid and a waste of time, but I’m retired and have a lot of free time. I purchased the deluxe drink package, but my wife doesn’t think we will get our money’s worth out of it, but I do. Just because of my own curiosity I’m making an app for my phone (just for me and my phone, not to publish the app) I am making the app to keep track of our drinks. The app has buttons such as cocktail, beer, wine, soda, juice, and so on. When I push, let’s say the cocktail button $13 is displayed. Any other button such as soda will add $3.50 to the running total. I’m stuck because I got most of the drink prices from the Royal Caribbean app but there are a few I don’t have. I know the prices such as wine varies by the glass so I’m averaging it out. Here is a list of what I don’t have prices for. If anyone has recently been on a cruise and know a ballpark cost for the following drinks, I would appreciate the answer: Johnny Rocket Milkshake Mocha from cafe Promenade bottle of water sparkling water smoothie from the spa amd coffee with liquor thanks CFL and Spang1974 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sms Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 Conceptually sounds interesting. In reality, I know I’d forget to hit the button after a few drinks in the sun. Pattycruise, CruisingOz, WAAAYTOOO and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 The waters are 2.99+ grats, the JR milkshake comes to $5.91 with grats The smoothie is also in the $6 range while the last mocha I saw on Cafe Promenade was like $4.59, so probably like $5 with grats. Cannot answer the spiked coffee for sure but I recall seeing it listed and think it might have been around $8/9. TheRick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRick Posted April 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 If anyone is interested. I thought of the idea last night and here is what I have so far. I know it’s rough so far. When the amount hits the daily amount I paid for the drink package the amount font turns from red to green whitsmom, CruisingOz, Kirsten and 1 other 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have it completed, would you be able to share it? CruisingOz and csrsue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could share it. I’m just working out one pesky bug. Do you have an iPhone or Android. It’s easier to share as android, but it can be done with an iPhone, but you’d need a Thunkable account Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our next cruise is in 2 weeks and it's our experimental "go without any drink packages" for our Back-to-Back. I have an Android phone.

I should have it finished in a day or two and then I’ll post the APK to a Google drive and share the link. Your phone might need you to accept that it’s not from the Google Play Store.

twangster Posted April 27, 2022 Report Share Posted April 27, 2022 Why not have a button that allows a custom amount to be entered to cover the unforeseen? CruisingOz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRick Posted May 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 @The Foxi thought I was done with the app but I have a little bug (only half the screen is displaying). As soon as I fix it (probably tomorrow) I’ll share the APK for the android so you can load it on your phone. @Kirstenim still trying to find a workaround for sharing with IPhone. Apple makes it difficult because they don’t make money on it. The Fox and Kirsten 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Yes, I’d love this as I think the DBP price for our October cruise is just too much to be cost effective so we are tentatively planning to go without. 2 bottles of wine for a few dinners & pay as we go. Will be interesting to see how much I really drink The Fox and BeachGal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qeyton Dude Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 FYI there are two price point for cocktails; basic $10 (rum and coke for example) and then fufu $13 (Miami Vice for example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 I'm pretty sure that RCL does this for you and in your app you will see all of your drink orders. Don't forget to add tax and tip to each drink as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We regularly walk around the ship with a glass of wine, most often that we have bought onboard but there is no way to differentiate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
