Great if you live in the UK
Preloaded meals and ingredients are not readily available in the US and it is not easy to update available ingredients to match your pantry.

Simplicity
This app was exactly what I needed and was looking for when I searched menu planner. Very simple. Allows me to fix menu for the week and edit and simply collated what needs to be in my shopping bag. Brilliant.
Seems ok
I would like to save a week of meals so that I can repeat that week. This will help to think about buying economically eg recipes that require the same ingredients. I don’t want to put effort into this then loose that week of meals.
Not sure how this could “help” you
I’m sure the creator of this app had good intentions, but wow is it frustrating to use?
1. Why are there preloaded meals that no one really eats? Then it takes effort to delete them to enter your own meals.
and
2. No matter how you enter the grocery list l, it will alphabetize your items. C’mon…this shows the creator clearly doesn’t grocery shop.🙄 Who shops by alphabetizing their food?! I shop for my foods by how the store is set up and the grocery list won’t let you alter the list after it alphabetizes it. Not only that, it makes you go through 3 steps to enter 1 item. I can write a list 20X faster.
I need an app to help me save time and access a grocery list easily. This one needs an overhaul in design. Even as a free app, it’s pretty useless. 👎🏼 Deleted it.

So good
Love it!!!
Great little app
Was looking for something simple to plan meals for the week. This fit the bill. Though it is pre-loaded with a bunch of items, consider them simply as examples of what you can do. as everything can be deleted so you can start clean. You can make your meal item as simple (just the name) or as complex (lists of ingredients and/or recipes) as you want. I'm not using it for diet or nutrition records so don't really need snack entries. A few suggestions that would make it 5 stars: 1. Allow whether or not to turn the "include in shopping list" on or off by default in the settings. 2. Have a text title next to each of the icons (i.e. Bread/Grains, Dairy, Meat/Fish, Vegetables/Fruit, Frozen, Spices, etc). 3. When filling in name fields, blank out the displayed default text so it doesn't end up being part of the entry before you notice it. 4. Allow user to decide which day of the week to start the week on (typically Sunday or Monday).
But these are minor and really don't effect the overall operation of the app. Good Job!

A great little app
I downloaded this as was looking for a hassle free meal planner, as I tend to cook in batches ie turning mince into spag Bol, cottage pie, roast chicken into fajitas etc and it keeps me organised - it is just what I needed with a place to add my shopping list, not used the recipe function yet as not needed but will have a look at some stage

Colours difficult to see
This app has a lot of potential! Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to use it. Although there are several colour schemes available, all have a bright blue font. There is not enough contrast to let this be useable for me. The size of the font is not adjustable either. Too bad! I would like to use it.
