  • Meal Planning Made So Easy!

    Wow! I've been using this app for a few weeks and I already can't say enough good things about it. Intent has helped me graduate from a boy to a man! But seriously... A few weeks ago "cooking" involved only frozen food and a microwave. Now I'm buying most of my food from the produce section and am using the whole kitchen to cook easy-to-make, fun, delicious, and healthy meals. If you've also been struggling with learning how to eat like an adult, give Intent a try.

    Intent doesn't teach you how to cook. It makes it ridiculously simple to figure out what to make, what to buy every week, and when to cook it. This takes on the hardest parts of meal planning and makes it easy. You answer some questions, review some suggestions, and voila! It creates your meal plan and your grocery list for you. All for free! One of the best parts is that there's no pressure with Intent. You can easily swap meals and readjust the plan throughout the week without feeling guilty.
  • Best $50 ever spent

    Honestly. I have never reviewed an app before in my life. This is the best meal planning app I’ve ever seen. I have literally seen 3 dietician/nutritionist in the last year to help me with my diet (I do not eat meat and have a LOT of food allergies) so that I can lose weight.
    Literally, all I’ve wanted them to do is tell me what to feed myself every day and a grocery list for those meals. This app did what the professionals could not do.
    Also, such a huge bonus, ALL THE RECIPES ARE DELICIOUS AND FILLING.
    I was able to put in allergies, family members, diet restrictions (pescatarian), how many meals I wanted planned and how many members of the family I was cooking for, for each meal!!!
    Buy it now.
  • Helps me with new dietary changes

    I really like this app. I recently found out I have type 2 diabetes, so I came across this app, experienced the free trial and paid for the year just to access all the recipes and the recipes look so tasty! The pros for me, 1. You can set up recipes per various dietary approaches 2. Adjusts recipes to allergens 3. Adjust macro and calorie targets 4. Adjust the servings of recipes 5. Provides a grocery list 6. You can leave notes on the recipe which I think is really cool. The cons for me: 1. The recipes - there are certain ingredients that need to specify measurements or more detail in the cooking process 2. I would like to see swap outs, e.g. recipe calls for 1 cauliflower head shaved into rice, I would like to see a replacement to make it easier for the busy cook, such as buy a bag of cauliflower rice and measure 2 cups for the recipe, per say and 3. I would really like to see other members reviews and cooking tips next to the star rating.
  • Manages all the logistics for healthier eating

    I'm loving this app. So much. I've been using similar apps for over a decade now and this is my favorite user-experience so far. The food preferences, inclusion of my family/household, recipes and grocery list linked to shopping/delivery apps!) - I just love it.
    I'm very busy and just don't have the time to do things right. (Shopping, prep, tracking healthy choices - it's a LOT and why so many of us lead unhealthy lives.)
    This app has all the right features to set us up for success. Tomorrow starts my first week - had the groceries delivered earlier today. I'm very excited and MOTIVATED to follow through. The visual aspect of the user interface in this app is motivating. The meal pics are great. So many little bells and whistles. I hope to purchase a lifetime access. Just testing it out but our future relationship looks fantastic!
  • Timesaver

    One of the most daunting task as a working Mom is knowing what to make for dinner. I tell my family all the time if you would just tell me what to make for dinner it would be so helpful. This app does that and so much more. It has been a game changer and has freed up so much time. Planning my meal with food me and my family likes, it also gives you a grocery list that you can easily send to Kroger. The recipes are easy to make and we have enjoyed them very much. This app will be a tool I will be using for many year to come. I want to thank the developers for freeing up my time and my family thanks you for the yummy food!!
  • This App is a game changer!

    For years I’ve said, “I just need an app that lets me make a grocery list for healthy meal prep”. This app is it. It saves me so much time, and helps me meal prep quickly without eating the same meal all week. The recipes are delicious and the app is super easy to use. I’ve used Intent for about five months and I’ve cut my grocery bill down by about a 1/3, I don’t waste produce and perishables anymore, and I’ve lost some weight!

    An idea for the developers: I would love a filter for season! :) I can choose seasonal dishes manually but it would be so cool to filter for “fall” and see all of the pumpkin smoothies and apple dishes!
  • This is my FAVORITE app!

    I have been using this app for 4 months now, and I LOVE it. Grocery shopping is no longer an anxiety filled 45 minute ordeal. I am in and out with the shopping list. I am able to try and do more with cooking. The recipes are extremely simple. Hello Fresh and like brands boast about simplicity, but you spend half an hour cutting and prepping veggies… I spend about half an hour, maybe more making the most delicious meals with these recipes. I only use it for dinner to cook for my husband and I because, I am a broken record when it comes to cooking. My favorites are the chicken piccata and the spicy pork tenderloin. I have grown a new love for cooking, and now I am able to change and make my own meals with the recipes. I recommend 10/10.
  • Life = changed

    I never review anything ever, but this app has my most sincere gratitude. I don’t even know where to begin! This app is so user friendly it’s astonishing. Edits and swaps are so easy. The developers of this app are tremendously skilled. The suggested meals are always normal things I’d make for myself - but having the planning taken care of is a game changer. The auto-disappearing grocery list rocks. Finally, and most importantly, I haven’t had to throw away any food gone bad since I started using this app. I learned how much I overbought groceries before. This app has kept me away from takeout and excited to eat my own meals at home every single day. Truly life changing. Thank you Intent!!
  • Beware -The picture and recipes are different

    I do like this app, and it gives me a lot of new recipes to try, which is the whole point… my main issue is that I am consistently running into recipes where the picture they show and what the recipe calls for are 2 very different things.

    For example, I made a corn chowder where the picture showed corn, peas, and carrots… the recipe only called for corn. You don’t realize this until it’s prep time because you’re depending on the grocery list to get all the ingredients for multiple recipes. Im a visual person, so I pick my recipes based off the photo they show. It’s been multiple times now where I’ve ended up with a lack luster version of what they are depicting.
  • Putting a price on health

    For people who don’t know how to eat healthy this is the perfect app. Helps you plan and shows you the recipes for the different food choices. People would try to put a price on praying if they could. We live in a consumer economy where money is thrown around to easily on things tht should b free. The world needs to look at the things it charges before it’s to late. Food already has a price too it, something essential to humans like space, water and air. The only thing they can’t charge for is air yet. We as a society must b different and think different within the inside to out. There’s no reason to why an app should b charging anyone a fee to learning how to eat better. American school already failed us there. They don’t give us a chance to actually try to live. Stronghold things we need, and need to know with money.
