  • Don't hesitate... start now

    This app is great. The smoothie recipes are easy to follow, ingredients are easy to find and they all taste delicious. Also, they're very low in calories while providing the body with the nutrition needed to support good healthy. I have one a day for lunch and my other meals are Paleo. The very best part is that I have never felt better. I highly recommend this app and I strongly suggest you take the challenge.

  • Love this app, but soon will not be iOS compatible

    I've been a loyal customer with Young and Raw since 2010 using their products/meal plans. I've been using this app since it was launched three years ago and I'm super disappointed that the app will soon no longer work with iOS if the app version isn't updated. There haven't been any new releases since the initial version and it doesn't appear to be a way to contact support on their website or social media platforms. All of which leads me to rank 3 stars instead of 5. I hope young and raw will look into this soon.

  • The Best of the Best, EXCEPT..

    This is such a great App. Searching for drinks based on available ingredient left in the frig/pantry is excellent. The selection is excellent.
    Developers need to Please please please add the following:
    You are required to drink the drinks in a predefined order not selected by you.

    So if you don't have an ingredient or don't like a drink there is no way to check off a drink you had in place of today's drink. The option doesn't exist. It would be nice to drag drinks up and down similar to creating a music playlist order.

    Overall this app, as it is, is a blessing, thank you.

  • App is great; Recipes are god awful terrible

    The app itself is very well organized with easy to follow recipes, a weekly shopping list, great photos and descriptions, etc.

    The recipes, however, taste terrible. I mean, totally awful with a grimaced face followed by a coffee or milk or beer chaser awful. I made it to day 3 and gave up.

    I don't mind adding some greens to a smoothie, but the problem with these recipes is that the greens overpower the taste of the drink to the point of it being undrinkable. Do you like cilantro? (I don't.). Day 1's taste screamed CILANTRO!!! and it was like drinking a strong salsa. Do you like cucumbers? (They're okay but can't say I seek them out.). Day 2's taste screamed CUCUMBER!!!! in spite of adding strawberries and blueberries. Day 3 was baby choy and banana, but...well, you get the idea... The next three hours after drinking these concoctions you get to taste them over and over from the burping.

    Week 1's grocery bill for the smoothies was $45.

    I think I'll stick to drinking Naked brand smoothies. Yes, they're high in (natural) sugar but drinkable. And cheaper. And probably not as healthy. But at least I drink them whereas the drinks from this app are all going down the disposal.

    Anyone in the market for a barely used Nutribullet Pro?

  • Amazing

    I'll admit I'm cheap. I was worried about purchasing this app. Would it have new information/recipes in it? Would any of them be edible? I've had this app for over a year and still refer to it. It's fantastic and there's only been one or two drinks I didn't enjoy. The search feature is the best. When my pantry gets low I can search with the items I have left to find a delicious recipe. If you're reading the reviews to determine whether or not to try it, do it!

  • LOVE THIS APP!!! Very User-Friendly and lots of variations:)

    I'm new to the green smoothie world and I have to say, I am already loving this app! Where have I been! I have to thank Shawn Stevenson for having Sheleana on his show because it opened me up to this way of eating. And, I can definitely do/make one green smoothie a day even for this busy mom of 4:)
  • Great app with room for improvement

    I love this app. The user interface is great, the photo looks nice, and the directions for making smoothies is easy to follow. With the price of a cup of Jumba juice, you can buy he app and get 90 recipes of smoothies that you can make by yourself at home.
    There is one piece of advice that I can give for improvement is: I would like to be able to add my own recipes to the app so that it can be personalized.

  • The Best Smoothie App Ever!

    Wow! Thank you! My husband (well, who's kidding who?) AND I are working to change up our eating habits. After showing these recipes to my husband, he's totally on board! THAT says it all right there! We haven't even started and we can't wait! Thank you for a well organized and very user friendly app. Every question I had was answered in the FAQs.

  • Easy to do

    I would have given 5 stars if the app added new recipes. It's a 30 day challenge with shopping cart so you know what to buy. I just wish it was an ongoing app with new smoothies each week so when the challenge was over you could keep trying new ones.
  • A not bad app!

    I like the general idea of the app, but it could use some improvement. For example when I looked at the recipe for the Banana Berry Smoothie to prepare my breakfast....the recipe included neither bananas nor berries. Since I am T2d, I have to prepare my daily food based on carb counts. That was a read tough day for me.

    More flexibility, ability to click DONE for days out of order would help, too.
