There is an app for that, part II

And the app is pretty okay – not bad, but not fantastic.

Shaving Buddy, available for Android, lets me keep track of my shaving hardware and software, track their use, enter my Shave of the Day, and – allegedly – share it on imgur.

Allegedly?

Yeah, I simply can’t get that feature to work. Which is a shame, because that would be neat, but it also don’t matter too much to me. The ability to keep track of my gear, usage statistics and seeing what gives me the best shaves is enough in my opinion to recommend it.

There is a free version available, but you’re limited to five items in each category (razor, blade, brush, lather, aftershave, and additional care). You might want to give the free version a go before shelling out 3USD for the full version. I decided to pay the full price, since I felt it was worth it to me. YMMV.
