Problems please help
Love this app! I have noticed a problem recently that I cannot edit my recipe ingredients. The list of items only partially opens up not enough to function properly. I can type a new recipe or copy and paste but I do not relish the thought of re-entering all of my recipes.
Please advise if there is something I am missing.
Thank you for your time.Show lessSue8888888888
IOS 17 problems
When I added IOS 17 to my ipad the Recipe Mgr app had problems. First, the app would crash if I tried to print a recipe. Second, when I created a new recipe I could add the first item but couldn’t with subsequent items. I love the app and hope the trouble will be resolved quickly. ThanksDSIMMS56
Worthless
I have yet to be successful importing anything into this apple by any of the methods available. Itdoesnot recognize imorts from any websites or from plain text pastes. Worthless.Motownmat
Useful but has become outdated
Great app for having recipes always available. Easy to share recipes, but not easy to import recipes from another user. Recommendations to developer: 1. Allow all storage to be in the cloud and automatically sync between devices aka photos. 2. Allow users to transfer a recipe via email or message and then be imported without typing into receiving device. 3. Make app available for iPhone. I frequently do not have my iPad with me but I am never without my phone. Updated 11 Feb 2021: This app has become increasingly out dated. The failure of the app to store data in iCloud and allow automatic interchange of data between platforms. The creator’s comment that they have another iPhone app and data can be copied manually just doesn't cut it. If you haven’t bought this app and invested years if time adding recipes, then don’t waste your time on this outdated and limited app. Look elswhere.
4 October 2022: When importing recipes, this app frequently puts several of the recipe items into the directions. If I had not been using and adding recipes to this app for over ten years, I would ditch it.Show lessBoltonBob
Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback. A few things you might not realize: We do have a sister app, Serving Sizer Recipe Manager on the iPhone that uses the same database format. You can copy between devices using iTunes File Sharing. Emails can be imported directly from another user of Recipe Manager with Serving Sizer, or Paste Recipe easily using our newer import feature. If you have any questions, or want more details, drop us an email, support@creativealgorithms.com.Could be a little better
Using the app is difficult at times. The app will turn off while entering data and doesn’t have a back up if you accidentally delete a recipe you are working on.yomanoman
Still needs work
The app needs a simpler method to backup recipes. Adding recipes takes a lot of time. Twice my Recipe Manager Serving Sizer entrees have been wiped out. Once, when there was a electronic problem with my iPad. The 2nd time, I don’t know what happened. I like the app...hate its reliability.Joe in Oriental, NC
Really difficult to use
A ton of steps to simply enter a recipe you already have,,, I want to convert my book of recipes to iPad,, this app would take hundred of hours to add your recipescaptain bob/bigdog
Terrible!
Worked when I first downloaded a few years ago , I loved it, but then recipes are all jumbled up and unreadable! I deleted and reinstalled. Lost all my recipes, and the sample recipe they give is all jumbled and in readable. Very disappointed. I loved this app at first.Maggiem58
Outstanding application
I have been using this app for sometime now. Are use it for two reasons:
-to collect and store my favorite recipes
-Very easy to use serving size changes
But most importantly is the ease of useFinding time
Made one and a half entries then removed
I tried to find a video of how to enter information and that should have been my clue. I finally entered one recipe and was almost finished with the second when I got kicked out of the program. When I went back in, none of the information was there for the second entry except for the title and categories.
Waste of $5.Show lessDavid F 815
