### 5/5 — Get actually healthy recipes

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

This is a rather nice women’s nutrition app made for women by women! The app is made by pharmacists, one being a certified nutritionist who understand women and how to fuel our bodies. They’ve created an AI cycle syncing bot that will recommend healthy recipes that are nutrient rich with the needs vitamins you might be lacking depend on your current phase in your cycle! Plus you can instantly shop online for your recipes using the cool Instacart integration!

### 5/5 — Nice app, healthy recipes, easy navigation

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

Nice app for healthy recipes and nutrition control. Easy to navigate menu. I liked the tutorial option when it guided me through the app features. It’s easy to add healthy meals to your list and it automatically creates a list of ingredients out of your meals list and allows you to do online shopping through Instacart. It also shows nutrition information, carbs, etc. valuable women’s nutrition stuff. I did not get a chance to try the AI cycle syncing since it’s their paid option, but that sounds interesting and I’ll will probably try it later. Great looking app, and it says it’s made for women by women which is nice.

### 5/5 — Taking away the guess work

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

This is such a cool idea for an app, and I love how it can really reduce the amount of mental load that women already have to spend on health and nutrition while getting food on the table. Not only does is it find the recipes and make the shopping lists, but it also includes AI cycle syncing to suggest recipes to cook depending on where you are in your cycle! I think so many more of us deserve to honor our body and adjust our needs based off of our cycle, and this app takes away all the guess work on how to do it. The tutorial is incredibly straightforward and overall the app is easy and intuitive. You can tell a lot of thought and attention went into the development of this, and it really feels like an app made for women, by women.

### 5/5 — Great health app!!!! Loved it

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

In general, I believe that your app has some promising features that could be very helpful for women who are going through menstruation. I appreciate that you have tailored your app to meet the requirements of a specific target audience. It's a great idea to offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. This could be especially helpful for women who fluctuate in their appetite and cravings throughout their menstrual cycle. It would come in very handy. A nice touch is also the integration with Instacart, which can save users time and effort when grocery shopping. Your app has the potential to be extremely beneficial to your target audience, in my opinion. Also, think about adding more features that could be helpful to women who have periods, like keeping track of their menstrual cycle data or giving information about how to take care of your period.

### 5/5 — Made for and by women!

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

I just love this app! Sorry guys, it's for women only. This app is super cute and pink! It's all about women's health and nutrition. It's fun to use and I love that each meal has the protein, fat and carbs listed. It's very easy to use and can help with cycling syncing as well. I could go on, really!

### 5/5 — Done by women for women

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

It’s really useful app for me which makes my life with cooking more easily. Thanks for this great idea to combine cooking and shopping in one place, it’s really save my time!

### 5/5 — Best App for Women’s Nutrition

*2023-06-18, version 1.0.20*

This is a cool app to help women eat healthy. Best part is the integration with Instacart. Just choose what you want to eat, rest assured it is delivered in your door step. You guys deserve the five star for saving my grocery shopping time.

### 5/5 — Really Cool AI App!

*2023-06-14, version 1.0.18*

I’ve been trying to find healthy recipes to make, so I decided to check this out. I haven’t used an app like this before, so I was happy to be able to use the AI cycle syncing feature. It was really cool to use and it’s easy to shop with since it automatically inputs all the items you need for the recipe you select. What I really like most is that I can choose to take out certain ingredients that I don’t like.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal App for Everyone Women

*2023-06-13, version 1.0.18*

I enjoy using this app! It is the ideal app to maintain women’s health. The app is especially useful for tracking and taking control of women’s nutrition. I love the cycle syncing and Ai cycle syncing feature. It is very helpful in keeping track and predicting future periods. I love that there are healthy recipes that I can easily make. The grocery list helps me keep track of what I need or already have a recipe. Phenomenal job the creators of this app has done! It is an app lady for women by women. Which makes it even more special!

### 5/5 — Awesome app exclusively for women

*2023-06-13*

I personally feel that this is a very revolutionizing app in terms of planning and cooking health food for the women and family as a whole . Me being a working women , wife and a mother always have to plan for all the 3 meals of the day and then cooking food with right nutrition for the family takes a lot of effort and time. So this app helps you to plan the meal and also places order for recurring the automatic required food delivery through Insta cart which is awesome. This saves lot of energy and time and helps focus on the other activities . Also giving food recipes based on your periods , that is the AI cycle syncing  is super cool as most of women’s heart have gone for a toll eating all junks . This helps channeling women’s  health  and our goals. Since it has been made for women by women I feel it’s more personalized and comfortable. There are some wonderful healthy recipes listed in the app based on the cycle sync , also I think it would also be great if you could add more globalized recipients too as women from different natives would be benefited using this app if they have recipes based out of their daily cooking and habits. Otherwise overall the app is truly a revolutionary effort taken by women to help other women lead a happy healthy life . Thank you!

We're thrilled to be your wingwoman, making sure you're armed with nutritious meals, perfectly timed cycle syncing, and Instacart-powered grocery magic. Your feedback lights up our world!

### 5/5 — Great app for recipes, healthy food, and tracking your period

*2023-06-12, version 1.0.18*

This is a great app for women! It is easy to use and the design and interface is user friendly and aesthetically pleasing. There are a lot of great, healthy recipes on the app that have photos and ingredients and ways to prepare. The recipes are separated by dietary restrictions so it really helps me as a vegan plant based eater! There’s also a period tracker which always comes in handy and something we should all be doing.

### 1/5 — Wrong results

*2024-01-14, version 3.1.0*

I ask for a meal with certain calories and protein and it returns something which is very much wrong. Well my butler does not know math.!

### 1/5 — Expensive

*2023-12-27, version 3.0.1*

95% off is $75!?! Dang

### 1/5 — must pay

*2023-11-06, version 2.3.0*

### 1/5 — FAKE REVIEWS!!!

*2023-06-02, version 1.0.11*

THE CREATOR WAS SUPPOSED TO PAY ME FOR A REIVEW AND NEVER DID... THESE ARE FAKE REVIEWS!!! DO NOT SUPPORT THIS LADY SHE IS A LAIR!!!

### 2/5 — Meh

*2023-06-28, version 1.0.24*

Was very excited to see an app that is dedicated to providing recipes to women based around their cycle. I have PMDD, and I’m always conscious about my nutrition throughout the month to help symptoms. Very disappointed that there is no way to filter out any allergens. My daughter is allergic to nuts, and I am allergic to nightshades. Hopefully this important feature is added someday!

### 3/5 — Don’t actually have the chance to use the app- it’s behind a paywall

*2025-04-30, version 3.3.1*

I like to think this is something I am happy to pay for, but I downloaded the app and before given a chance to see the features, etc, you’re asked to pay to sign up. There’s no option for a trial or anything to give you sense if this is something you will truly use. So I just deleted it.

### 3/5 — Healthy recipes for optimized women’s nutrition!!!

*2023-06-24, version 1.0.23*

This app is a great one stop shop for women who are interested in hormone tracking, women’s nutrition and cycle syncing. They recommend what food will give you the best nutrients for where you are in your cycle AND compiles a grocery list AND helps walk you through the recipe. Makes it easy to plan using AI cycle syncing and meal prepping ahead to stick to your goals! :)

### 4/5 — Great app!!!

*2023-06-13, version 1.0.18*

Overall, I think your app has some promising features that could be very helpful for women who have a period. I like that you have focused on a specific target audience and tailored your app to their needs. The meal options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner are a great idea, and could be especially useful for women who experience changes in appetite and cravings during different stages of their menstrual cycle. It would be very helpful. The integration with Instacart is also a nice touch, as it can save users time and effort when shopping for groceries. I think your app has the potential to be very useful for your target audience. Additionally, consider adding more features that could be helpful for women who have a period, such as tracking menstrual cycle data or providing information about menstrual health.

### 4/5 — The NutriChef: Nourishing the well-being with recipes and Nutritional Support

*2023-06-08, version 1.0.18*

I was impressed with the app's functionality, particularly its integration with InstaCart for automatic grocery searches. The "Share" option, specifically the "Check out my Grocery List" feature, is something I appreciate as it allows me to share my list of incomplete grocery items. I also appreciate the detailed presentation of recipes, providing step-by-step instructions. During my experience, I made the following observations: 1. I appreciate the "How to Use" video, but I feel that the explanation of the steps could have been slower for better comprehension. 2. When using the "Shopping Online" feature and adding all the required groceries to the cart, clicking on the final "Got it" button (please note that the "Skip" button does not have any effect here) should ideally lead to the cart/check out the section of InstaCart. However, I encountered an issue where it sometimes resulted in an error message saying, "There was a problem loading this page." (It's worth mentioning that the "Done Shopping" button correctly directed me to the "Groceries" section.) 3. The "Delete Account" option could be improved regarding user communication and clarity. 4. I noticed that the "Review My List" button disappears after the app closes. It would be beneficial if this option were available under the "Hamburger menu" for easy access. 5. I couldn't use the AI Cycle Syncing feature because it needed a Pro upgrade.

### 4/5 — Love the idea of the app

*2023-06-05, version 1.0.13*

Hello, as I looked through the app and understood how the app works. I think that it is a great idea to have a period sync with the meals and have the groceries for the meals delivered. However, there are a couple of things I feel should be tweaked. First, since the app is free to download the AI menstrual sync should be free to use since it plays a major part of how the app is used, if I’m not mistaken. Second there should be various meals added on both pro and regular but pro should have more appealing/ appetizing meals as few meals, in my opinion, can be easy to make or research because it was basic, this could also appeal to more audience especially women of color. Lastly since the app is like an all in one you should add a few workout programs or access to therapists to pro and ask the basic health and target questions to really get women to enjoy and actually pay for the pro, can even increase cost to help with sales. The app in and of itself is a great idea I hope this review helped!!

### 5/5 — Great app for women!

*2023-06-23, version 1.0.22*

This app is great and will be a wonderful addition for any women that are looking for healthy recipes. I like that it’s laid out easy for choosing recipes and then adding the items I need in those recipes to my grocery list for easy delivery. I was surprised at how easy it was to pick the meals I wanted and get it synced. The recipes are mostly easy to make as well for those who don’t have a lot of time but there are some recipes that could take a bit longer when you want a unique, impressive meal. Kudos!

### 5/5 — I really love this to keep a healthy + nutritious diet especially for women’s health!!

*2023-06-23*

Awesome app, I love the way you can adjust servings especially for people who live alone, it’s a lot easier to not waste and portion exactly how you need. It’s super convenient for women’s nutrition and makes it easy to plan healthy recipes because you can add breakfast, lunch, and dinner and make a grocery list for yourself to stay on track. It’s been so much easier to maintain my eating habits, especially on periods when we need more to eat foods with more iron. This app has been a lifesaver for women’s nutrition and you can definitely tell it’s made with love for women by women! Also love the AI cycle syncing feature. 10/10 would recommend!

**Developer response:** We're so grateful for your amazing feedback. Our team of fabulous women poured their hearts into creating an app that celebrates the power of femininity. We're overjoyed that it resonates with you. Keep shining, and let's conquer those cycles like the goddesses we are!

### 5/5 — Health recipes & more!

This app helps you prioritize women’s health and nutrition! The healthy recipes are plenty so your breakfast/lunch & dinner will not be boring and bland. It also includes AI cycle syncing which is a very unique feature! Not many apps have this!

### 5/5 — Really awesome idea!

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

This is something I never thought about, but I love the idea of syncing your nutrition with your cycle. The recipes have gluten and dairy free options which is perfect for me. I like how they break the recipes down into easy to read, step by step instructions.

### 5/5 — A must-have Women's health improvement app

*2023-06-19, version 1.0.21*

I highly recommend downloading this amazing app specially designed for women's nutrition. It is user-friendly and easy to navigate. As someone who always wants to eat healthy but struggles to find healthy recipes, this app has been a game-changer for me. It has provided me with a lot of ideas and helped me plan my healthy meals effortlessly. Simply select your desired meal from their list and the app will generate a well-organized grocery list and step-by-step cooking instructions. The premium plan, which includes AI cycle syncing, is a smart addition that allows you to eat based on your hormones. I have heard that eating the right foods can help balance hormones and reduce pre/post-PMS symptoms, which makes this app even more valuable. I was previously using a popular women's health app that did not include a meal plan, but now I am excited to switch to this app that offers so much more. Trust me, you won't regret giving it a try!
