  • Best food app ever

    You won’t ever be without this app. It’s incredible. It makes you want to cook. You select how much effort you wish to put in and some lovely food on here
  • Great app - use it every week.

    I use this app almost every week to plan meals for the week, and it automatically builds my grocery list which I can then open at the store and check items off the list as we go through the store. I upload recipes from the internet that I like, and use the search capabilities to get recipe ideas. The support is good too.

    I wish the iPhone app grocery list made it a little harder to check things off. I often inadvertently mark something off the list just by scrolling down the list using my thumb on the side of the screen. It has an undo button but when I’m at the store I dont always notice it until I’ve left the store and don’t have everything on my list. It should have a confirm button or some second step before crossing it off the list.

    Thanks!

  • Amazing app!!

    This is in my opinion an Amazballs app!!, it has everything one needs to create awesome food...
  • Game changer

    Love this app and haven’t had to upgrade to pro. This is what every busy family needs. I added recipes for the week into my favorites and then loaded the ingredients into my grocery list. This made grocery shopping a breeze (I swiped the items we already had at home) it definitely saved my money! I’ve made two of the meals so far and they were big hits with my family. We were sick of the same dinner rotations we’ve been eating for the past five years and I’m not creative enough to do it on my own. So yeah def get this app!

  • Get out of your cooking rut!

    After years of cooking for the family, I was in a cooking rut. I realized I was making the same things over and over with little variation. The busier we all got, the deeper that rut became.

    This app helped me get out of it. I have found so many wonderful new recipes to add to our repertoire and have had lots of fun experimenting and looking for new dishes to try! Thank you, BigOven!!!

  • Years of use

    I've been using big oven for a couple of years now and I love it. My adult child is linked into my login and he puts suggestions in the daily planner so I don't have to decide what we eat all the time.
  • Crashes

    Crashes before the home screen even loads. Please fix.
  • Doesn't work since update

    No longer opens. Crashes on opening everytime
  • So far so good

    Mainly using the app for my grocery list and has been working well.
    Makes life a lot easier .
    A few things that would make this app better would be to have the ability to organise the order of the list so you don't have to go up n down through the list to match the area of the supper market you are in eg fruit section is the first section my supermarket has so would like this list at the top of my list.
    Also the ability to sync my grocery list with my wifi and either of us add items and update the list . Other than those issues great we app

    Thanks for your great feedback. We unveiled shared household grocery list last year. Please go to your account settings and invite as many people as you'd like to the list. Your list syncs via the cloud, and if you allow notifications, you'll receive push notifications when someone in your household has updated the list. Give this feature a try and if you have any questions or feedback, please send us a note at support@bigoven.com.
  • Poor - Time Better Spent Cooking a Good Dish

    Terrible, unintuitive UI, not at all obvious how to upload recipes. Crashes continuously on trying to upload first recipe on iPad. Profile settings don't appear to work on iPad - change password just give error, so unable to change and using the "forgot password" link fails miserably also. Gave it a couple of hours of grace, but gave up out of frustration - what is the point if tou can't login, or don't appear to be logged in??Cancelled my 30 day Pro subscription and removed the app. A waste of a few hours - try something else.
