Isn’t this a drinks recipe app? ### 1/5 — Unbelievable *2023-04-17, version 7.3.3* Over 8k recipes but not 1 for a margarita??? ### 1/5 — drinks made WRONG! *2023-04-16, version 7.3.3* Professional bartender here, I looked up a few classic cocktails and what I found is that many of the ingredients are wrong! For example Mai Tai and Long Island. If this app can’t get that right then what other B.S. are they going to tell you! this app can’t be trusted! ### 1/5 — Von wegen „its free“ *2023-03-23, version 7.3.3* Ein teures Abo für eine schlechte Leistung. zudem ist die App noch ein Datensammler. ### 1/5 — From free to paid trash *2023-02-12, version 7.3.3* This app went from a great free list of drinks to a paid trashpile. ### 1/5 — Leave me alone *2023-01-15, version 7.3.3* I just downloaded this app and haven’t had it open more 40 seconds and you want me to rate and review it. So this is what you get. ### 1/5 — Only 3 days are free *2022-12-30, version 7.3.3* Pretty lame given the name is “Drinks Free” ### 1/5 — Used to Be Free *2022-12-03, version 7.3.3* Used to love this app... Many recipes for free... Haven’t used it in a while, but when I just went on to search a recipe, I was required to sign up for a subscription that costs money... Yes, there is a “free trial” option, but who knows what hoops you have to jump through to cancel... I just say, “move on” as there’s many other apps to see ### 1/5 — Do not download *2022-10-28, version 7.3.3* Don’t get this misleading app they call it “free” yet they offer $7.99 subscription! save your time, data , & money! Search engines are always free! ### 1/5 — Was great while it lasted but no longer free... *2022-08-24, version 7.3.3* and sneaky to trick people to remove that version in the update which is really a downgrade! Reprehensible! So now I am deleting ALL my Kappboom apps and advise you to do. ### 1/5 — Original App Great - current version a waste *2022-08-09, version 7.3.3* Quickly deleted latest version - all ads and crime waster ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This app is so bad *2026-03-15, version 7.4.1* Have they not ever updated this ### 1/5 — Tons of pop ups *2026-01-29, version 7.4.1* 👎🏼 ### 1/5 — Nagging for money *2025-12-30, version 7.4.1* This was a great program years ago. Gave you the ability to match up your ingredients to possible results. Apparently that wasn't good enough, now it is nothing but another app looking for continuous revenue without anything in return other than NOT wasting your time and probably selling your data to others. It is a database. There's no need for any of this other nonsense, the app was ruined. ### 1/5 — DrinksFree isn’t free *2025-09-09, version 7.4.1* I guess there really isn’t free apps anymore. Why would I pay for any so when I Google pretty much anything for free. Dumb ### 1/5 — ! *2024-08-29, version 7.3.3* I pay 7.99 a month and still get ads. I’ve restored purchase several times and ads still pop up. ### 1/5 — nagware that locks your favourites *2024-03-24, version 7.3.3* i open it maybe once a year. now i find that it's locked one of my favourites & wants to be paid to open a universal recipe. bye bye! ### 1/5 — Subscription? Ads?? *2024-02-06, version 7.3.3* Really? A subscription service for drinks? Give me a break! ### 1/5 — DrinksFree *2023-12-30, version 7.3.3* No longer free. Grandfather acct ### 1/5 — Finger weg!!!!! Abzocke!!! *2023-06-02, version 7.3.3* Abzocke hoch 10!!!! Nichts in deutsch! Man will nur Geld sehen! Mit so einer Masche nicht einmal ein Stern wert! ### 1/5 — Subscription? *2023-04-22, version 7.3.3* I have to pay for Drinks Free? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best drinks software *2026-01-01, version 7.4.1* The best free software to prepare drinks like a pro ### 5/5 — Best *2025-06-14, version 7.4.1* Excelente app ### 5/5 — Good stuff *2025-05-01* Amazing ### 5/5 — Very business like.. *2024-06-11, version 7.3.3* Very businesslike.. ### 5/5 — K *2024-02-03, version 7.3.3* K… Up w… K ### 5/5 — Fantastic cocktail data base *2023-10-03, version 7.3.3* Incredibly well sorted and organized! Makes life easy when looking for some inspiration 🙏👍🤩 ### 5/5 — Revue *2023-08-24, version 7.3.3* When I want a new cocktail recipe I use your app ### 5/5 — It’s broken! *2023-05-30, version 7.3.3* The app now only shows items I starred. What used to be, I now have to pay for. Yechh! ### 5/5 — Love it *2023-03-09, version 7.3.3* Love this app! So easy to use I would recommend it to even the occasional drinker. ### 5/5 — Unlimited drink recipes *2022-07-27, version 7.3.3* Great drink recipe, helps out with someone names a Greahard to find drink.
