Excellent! You can shop by recipe!
I am thoroughly enjoying this app. I cook most every night and often find myself at work with no dinner planned. With this app I can choose to make a favorite recipe with the risk of forgetting that one crucial ingredient. Thanks to this app, I will be ordering out less ;)Tysus
Easy to use
Adding items is very easy because they are all there and you just type the first two letters and pop it on your grocery list. Then when shopping you just tap the items you get and pop they go onto the gotten list. I like the recipe idea. However, could you make it possible to search and download recipes instead of needing to type them in? This would be nice. Thanks.Show lesstinpail
Good, but could be better
Helps with shopping but you could improve the way quantities and measures are done. At the moment I can't record quantites like 175 g. You can only have 150, 170 or 200. You should allow for more precised measures. Next upgrade maybe?IwonaS
nice, maybe better?
I just purchased this, I'm looking forward to using it toward better menu planning. My first impression is that I wish that recipes could be organized with drag and drop. Not a big deal, just would like to see interaction with recipe and food sites more integral through links and bookmarking, maybe with a favorites page? The custom shopping list feature is great!Show lessmarksullo
no other shopping app has the Recipe Feature!! This ROCKS!
I have been using this application for close to five months now. I love it! It has turned a dreaded task (meal planning and grocery list making) fun and enjoyable. Especially now that they've added the option to input quantities in the recipes. If you're reading some of the other reviews take note that many were written before the new version came out so the comments are inapplicable to date. AND YES YOU CAN SORT BY ISLE. I absolutely love this app and recommend it to every meal planner/shopper I know. I never thought I'd like meal planning but now it's really fun and my family is eating better meals. . Also, website back up or entry would be so, so helpful. All in all, this is worth the price for sure! P.S. I've tried several other shopping apps and this is the only one I use as it is far superior.Show lessdaygirl
A Standout!
I've tried almost all the shopping apps. This one is the best for us. We need to be able to make a list FAST. GroceryZen makes it really easy to have a "master list", so you can just change it a little bit each time you shop, making the whole process really streamlined. Plus the recipe feature is great! The only thing I could wish is a way to sync my copy of GroceryZen with my fiancee's.Show lessSloopDog
Best of any I've seen
As you may be able to sense from my review, this comes from an anal retired engineer. Several years ago when my wife gave me the opportunity to do the grocery shopping, I immediately began working on an “everything we ever buy” list, and had the items roughly entered by aisle. In the pre-iPhone years, I would print out a list and my wife would highlight everything we needed on the next shopping trip. I would take the list and do the shopping. This worked fairly well and kept me from wondering the aisles. After seeing GroceryZen as a new App, I realized it had just what I wanted, and more. It also appeared very easy to use. Since purchasing the Program, I have NOT been disappointed. It works great. Yes, it took a little work to enter in all my items and appropriately name the rows of my favorite grocery store but now that it is done, shopping is a breeze. Even if I shop at a different store, items are usually similarly grouped To easily order the aisle, I started each aisle name with the aisle number. That really helped. No looking up to read the aisle name signs in the store. Like the iPhone itself, the list is always conveniently with you, to select an item whenever you think of it. This is and will remain a 5 star program for me.Show lessShopper Dude
Love it!
I love this app! It is easy to you and great to overlook! I especially love that I have my recipe book with me in one app. I would be totally pumped if it would have a weekly "meal planner" as well, so I only have to use one app! It would also be nice if you could add prices to items!WaLiJi
Nearly perfect
I initially thought that this was not going to do the job i had wanted, but then realised it has been designed with more flexibility than i had thought. The main features i would like to see added are ability to filter or group the items based on their isles (e.g. so all household goods can be seen grouped). Then a similar idea extended to recipies so this tab becomes more universal allowing other groupings beyond just recipes. That way any kind of collections of items can be created not just Recipes. Looking forward to the next updateShow lessbobbyfrizzo
Someone help me with a few questions?
So far I like this app, but have two questions: 1. When I enter my recipes, is there a way to get the recipe list to organize into aisles like the regular shopping list? 2. Is there a way to "un-check" all the items you've crossed off after you're finished shopping?GroceryGirl
