So delishhh
Spillt
Just missing a few features!
Also, I think it’s necessary to be able to manually input some recipes added from links online for sites whose format is difficult to parse. It has been impossible for me to import recipes from some sites.
Other than that I love the app!
Response from developer
Thanks so much for the feedback! We are actually working on a desktop version as we speak, so you should hopefully see that available in the next month or so. We would've loved to launch web sooner, but it's still just two of us running Spillt so we've had to be selective about the new features we prioritize :) Regardless, thank you for the review and let us know if you have any other ideas for making Spillt better!
Love Spillt! Has a few drawbacks
In addition to the collections, I wish there were a way to add tags so that you could filter by multiple tags, or apply multiple categories to a recipe without needing to save it to different collections. For example, I might want to have a “pasta” recipe that I can also save as “spring”, “summer” and “easy”. It would be preferable to me to be able to categorize and filter using multiple tags instead of adding it to four separate collections.
Last, I think it’s a drawback that you cannot save instructions when you save from a website. Maybe this was done to preserve web traffic for content creators or maybe it’s too hard to parse a whole page, both of which I completely understand. But because I’m concerned about link rot, I don’t think the app will ever be able to fully replace an actual recipe box or a folder on my computer, which is a little disappointing.

Meal Planning Made Simple
Too many ads
Response from developer
Hi there, I believe you reached out over email as well, and to reiterate the point we made in our response there, we (Spillt) have no control over the ads that you're seeing. We simply show you the website you saved (just like a bookmark folder!), so any ad you see is something that a blogger controls on their web page. We totally understand your frustration, however, and that’s why we are working with food bloggers to build new ways for them to monetize in ways other than running ads on their sites!
Just the app I needed!
Response from developer
Oh my gosh thank you SO MUCH for the kind review!! We're so happy you found us and you're exactly why we built Spillt! Please don't ever hesitate to reach out to us at hey@spillt.co if you ever have ideas for making Spillt better!
Only app review I’ve ever written!
Response from developer
Thank you so much for the kind words! We love to hear that it's resonating with you. The phone staying open while cooking is our personal favorite as well :) If you ever have ideas for improving Spillt (big or small), please don't hesitate to reach out to us at feedback@spillt.co!
Never review apps
I love this app as it’s intuitive, makes cataloguing my recipes easy in one place.
Can’t praise it enough. Well done guys.
Not only have I saved all my recipes fro bookmarks and URLs with my own personal notes to remind me of my changes, I’ve taken the time to upload recipes from books I use regularly in the same way.
Ideally, a great addition would be text recognition for ingredients so you don’t have to type them out. I just add instructions as images so that’s nice and easy but could use the same text Recognition for this section too if you would rather than them step by step instead of a single image from a book.
Not a criticism though as it works great for me!
Response from developer
Thank you SO much for taking the time to leave us a review! It really means a lot to us. And we love that you called out saving cookbook recipes with text recognition... that is exactly the next feature we're working on. If you ever have any ideas or suggestions for improving Spillt, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at feedback@spillt.co!
Just Brilliant

Thank you so much for the kind review!! It really means a lot to us and we're particularly happy you're getting use out of the submit thumbnail images flow–that's a new feature we just added :) Please let us know if you have any ideas how we can make Spillt better by emailing us at feedback@spillt.co!
