  • If Only They Could Go Back *Several* Releases

    The Epicurious App has not been stable or worked for me in probably a few years. Every so many months I check to see if there’s a new release, download it, get my hopes up, launch... and crash. I don’t think I’ve kept the app on my phone longer than 20 mins in the past few years. No idea what all the enhancement releases are for if the underlying stability is bogus. Definitely not the only reviewer with these issues. Just wish they’d either go back MANY releases or start from the ground up and rewrite the whole thing. I really really really miss this app. And the website has become such garbage with all the ads I find I need an adblocker to keep my sanity. Such a bummer. I’ll keep checking and i’ll keep strong disappointed. But maybe ONE day I can use this again.

    Updated a very long time later. Just updated to a new iphone 12 and was so excited to try the epicurious app again and see if it would work finally. NOPE. Serious garbage. Crash crash crash crash crash.

  • Wonderful app - possible to include metric measurements?

    I’m a big fan of Epicurious, but as an Australian also a big fan of metric measurements. Is there a way to include an option for metric measurements in the app settings? It’s a pain to convert for every recipe!
  • Food

    Great recipes and easy to use
  • Cooking not politics

    Epicurious is not going to have beef recipes because of farting cows and the environment?!! Cows have been around since the dawn of time AND if we had left them to their own devises like India how many cows would there be in the world! You will learn wokeness doesn’t pay. >>>DELETED APP ! Far better around

  • Saving items

    Save my first item three times and it showed saved and yet never shows up when I went back in!!!!! Great site for food but horrible if you want to keep recipes!!!!!!
  • App will not open

    I have really enjoyed Epicurious over the last few years but now it refuses to open on my iPhone running OS14.4.2. What’s gone wrong? It’s it the latest version of the App or is it my phone that’s at fault?

  • Easy, helpful, reviews... favorite!

    I find this app to be my favorite place to get online recipes. Reasons are it gives without asking for money or clicks, it has a large variety of recipes, most of them have reviews, and it is easy to save recipes for future needs. I like checking it out for new recipes because I am not shown ads or otherwise annoyed by obstacles to simply finding good recipes. That is the goal and this app delivers. Is it perfect? No, I can’t get any of the videos to play, some recipes don’t have a photo, some don’t have any or very few reviews and there aren’t very many gluten free choices yet.

  • Saved Recipes?

    Tried the app for about a day and the recipes were great and they organized the different categories really well. My only and biggest problem is that the app decides what it’s going to save on my ‘save recipes’ file. I spent almost an hour finding all these great recipes and scrolling and scrolling. A couple hours later when I tried to make one of my saved recipes, I checked my saved recipe file and it was completely empty! I had a least 30 recipes saved that I spent an hour trying to find! Then I found one that I liked again and added it and immediately checked the saved recipe file and still nothing. So I’m not sure what’s going on but that again turned me COMPLETELY off. There’s to many recipes on this app for the saved recipes category to not be working/glitching.

  • No way to remove account

    Don’t download this app if you care about your privacy because it is impossible to delete your account if you don’t want to use it anymore. The app doesn’t have the option and even after contacting the support staff several times there was no response. So they keep your data in perpetuity (in violation of GDPR). Have submitted a complaint to Apple about this app.

  • Great app, but...

    So, I truly do love this app, but what’s up with it no longer allowing me to play the videos? I loved the videos, I thrived off of the videos, the videos made life just that much better. This problem started about a month ago and I hesitated to say anything thinking it was just a glitch or something but the problem persists... Please, Please, PLEASE fix it, I need you back in my life. And this is totally me just being extra but can you, one, please add more BA content and two, give us a way to search and possibly save videos. No biggie though.

    P.S. I still love you guys though so even if the problem doesn’t get fixed and what not, you have my loyalty and I am not going anywhere.
