Yep, there's Pipe Tool and I love it. Unfortunately, they only make it for the iPhone.
IIRC, the cost was 3 or 4 bucks.

App looks great. But.. my problem with apps that allow you to start cataloging your own inventory is that there is no place the database is backed up to. If you have to re-install your phone or have problems at any time the app data is lost. Or you get a new phone. The apps that have a unified web database that allow you to enter information on the app but store to a web site in the cloud - that's where you find something very worthwhile.
I just downloaded a database app to my android and built my own pipe tobacco specific database. Saves to the cloud via google drive and I can access from my phone, tablet or pc.
@brdavidson that's what I'm talking about. I think there is a more broader way to do this to service all pipe smokers. Ie - if you look at evernote as an app - its unified across phone, tablet, desktop, website. Power of the "cloud" so to speak. Wish I knew some bad-ass web developers with free time.
Ya I'm not a programmer at all, but work with databases all day long. It was stupid simple to setup and the cloud based system was why I chose to download that particular dbase app. It isn't pretty per se, but it works well.
Good luck with that Yaddy, I don't think developers will touch that platform with a ten foot pole now. I just switched to android after being a 10 year plus BB user. Its unfortunate but they will soon be extinct.
I just tried tobaccocellar.com today for the first time, and it's great. But I would definitely welcome an Android app, as I have my android with me everywhere. :D
That would be nice. Would this have an Android app interface, or just available from the internet?
For what it's worth, I'm actually writing and Android app for pipe smokers 
I'm a somewhat newbie pipe smoker (started ~2 years ago, but only taking it more seriously in the last 8 months or so), and at some point I got tired of keeping my notes spread between a spreadsheet, Trello, Google Keep, paper notebook etc. And I couldn't find an Android app to help me. So, what the hell, I decided to write one
I wasn't going to mention it on the forum yet, but it seems relevant to this thread. The app is still in early stages, but it works and but I'm managing to get some work done on it every day. It's not released in the Play store yet (and, for what it's worth, my current intention is to make it free), but I'm running a Beta group and I'd be happy to include anyone here that might be interested.
