buggy
I've had this going on a day now. I consider myself someone who can pick up how to use an app pretty quickly. This app is far from intuative. If you don't input the info just right, you get an error about an issue with the metadata. Now that I've figured that out, everytime I try to edit a recipe, the app crashes. I'm disappointed that I spent money of this app, and it's not living up to what I'd hoped. So much potential, and now back to the drawing board.Ladygodivajk
