Great app full of gems!
Love this app! Easy to use and so many recipes to choose from. Although I don’t know how to leave comments on the recipes.Cami UK
Poor search function
The Epicurious app has a very poor search function. Even if you know the exact name of the recipe, it may or may not work
For example, the small video that plays on an unrelated recipe page featured “Chocolate Dipped Pistachio Shortbread.” When I entered that exact title into the Search function looking for the recipe, it was not found. Makes no sense
If you know only a partial name of a recipe, the search won’t find it. And the search brings up all tyoes of extraneous articles that have no relevance. The search by word or partial name needs a major rework. It’s very frustrating and makes me not want to use it. The NYT cooking app is much better.
There must be hundreds of thousands of recipes in the database, yet the app finds only a related few if you enter a major ingredient.
I’ve subscribed to Bon Appétit since the 1970s and am disappointed by the lackluster search performance of this app. It needs much refinement and attention to these issues.Show lessjohnnyapple ore
App rubbish
Love it when no matter how many times you reset password, the app continues to send you back to log in page. I guess my recipes are a matter of national security.DP062265

Creamy leek and potato gratin
Well, I had leeks and potatoes but not in the quantities needed. Used ghee instead of butter and only had 1/4 cup of single cream and semi-skimmed milk......these are coronavirus times!! Anyway, the idea was there and it went in the oven with our chicken thigh Sunday roast. Absolutely delicious.......will certainly be making it again.....maybe with some added garlic. Thank you.Show lessfifijell

Login Doesn't Work on iPad
For some reason the login function doesn't work on my iPad. I've tried several times and the app just closes the page as though I never entered my login details. It's very frustrating. Other than that, the app is good. It has a recipe box section and a shopping list section from which you can choose items from your recipe box in order to help you prepare your meals. Please fix this login issue. Other than that, good work.
UPDATE: I bought a new iPad a few weeks ago and updated all of my apps, yet this app STILL refuses to let me login. It’s not like it’s telling me that my password is wrong and that I need to guess again or reset it. No, instead it just acts like I’ve never entered my information once I press Sign In. Soooo frustrating!!! How am I supposed to access my Recipe Box or my Shopping List. It’s really inconvenient having to access this website from my laptop when I’m cooking in the kitchen or planning meals on the road. PLEASE FIX THIS Epicurious!!!Show lessRollipollies
Can’t sign in & broken links
I can no longer log in and see my saved recipes. Also, the links for recipes inside recipes (example: dressings or a side dish) are all broken! This has been annoying for months.Mum@home
Issue trying to sign in
Can’t even get into the app on my iPhone. Enter my correct email and password and it throws me right back to the sign in page.... no error message.... nothing.Tanimags
So handy, so good, what else do you need?
Love this app. Been an Epicurious fan for many years, long before the app came out. I love the ability to save recipes, make shopping lists, read reviews, and the ingredients/instructions flip back and forth is so easy — you’re not constantly scrolling to look at steps then amounts then steps, etc. I use this app every time I cook. I have so many favorite recipes saved in the app. Also, the videos are great and I like the meal planning ideas. I wish the app allowed me to search multi course meals or sides — sometime you get the side pairing in the recipe but often not. Other times, I’m making a 6 course meal for ten with a theme and I just wish I could search “French feast with fish” or something like that, the way you can online. Only three main challenges: 1) sometimes search queries aren’t accurate unless the search lingo is phrased just right; 2)the recipes haven’t always kept up with modern techniques, like sous vide — I use sous vide all the time, and have to go elsewhere for recipes; 3) you can’t post recipe reviews via mobile app — you have to go online desktop and login...if this could be fixed there’d by 10x reviews.Show lessSittingbull strongbear
