Select the bottles, tap the ⋯ button in the action bar, tap Edit, change only the fields you want and tap Save. Whatever you touch is written to every selected bottle; whatever you leave alone stays exactly as it was on each one.
💡 Read the form as what you are about to set, not as what these bottles are. It opens showing the values the whole selection already agrees on, and leaves the rest blank — except Size, which falls back to 750ml. Nothing is sent unless you change it.
Everything the action bar can do
Selecting bottles turns the foot of the screen into an action bar: the count, Deselect all, a Remove button and a ⋯ menu holding the rest.
Action | What it does, and when it appears |
Remove | Marks them consumed, gifted, sold and so on, keeping the record. Always there. |
Edit | The form below. Editors only. |
Tags | A tick-box list: ticked means every selected bottle has it, a dash means only some. Tap to add it to all, tap again to strip it from all. Tags you don't touch are left alone. Editors only. |
Print Labels | Barcode labels for the selection. |
Download CSV | Just those bottles, grouped by label or by bottle. |
Create Wine List | A printable list from the selection. Editors only. |
Locate | Lights them up in the 3D cellar. Only when one of them has a slot. |
Add to 3D position | Only when one of them has no slot yet. |
Remove 3D position · Relocate Bottles | Only when one of them already has a slot. |
Delete | Wipes them and their history. Sits on its own at the foot of the menu. Editors only. |
If you joined the collection as a viewer, the bar still gives you Download CSV, Print Labels and Locate; Remove is greyed out, and Edit, Tags, Delete, Create Wine List and the placement actions aren't there.
What the Edit form sets
The same form as on a single bottle, minus quantity: Size, Storage, bottle location text, Purchased or received from, a note, purchase price, currency and date, and tags. On past bottles it gains a Removal details section, so a whole batch's reason or date can be corrected at once.
Two fields need the selection to be a single wine and vintage:
Vintage — the row appears only when every selected bottle is the same wine and year, because changing a year re-files bottles under a different row and we do that one row at a time. The web says Cannot edit year as mixed content.
Custom fields — same rule, and only if your plan includes them (see Understanding bottle details).
The three things you have to type
Moving 10 or more bottles to a different storage asks you to type
CONFIRM, because it clears their 3D slot positions.Removing 10 or more asks you to type
REMOVEand the count.Delete always asks you to type
DELETEand the count — the web spells out the whole phrase, likeDelete 12 bottles. This cannot be undone.
Edit and Tags handle up to 500 bottles in one pass; past that the app says so, and filtering into smaller batches is the way through.
On Android and on the web
Android has the same footer and actions, with two gaps: no bulk Tags action, and the Vintage row is hidden in every bulk edit, so vintages are changed one bottle at a time.
On app.invintory.com the selected-bottles bar carries Locate, Edit, Wine list, Remove and Delete, and Remove picks its reason straight from the dropdown. Fields where the selection disagrees sit collapsed under Click + to replace mixed content — the clearest view of what you are about to overwrite.
Collection → tap a row's circle → ⋯ → Edit → change a field → Save
