### 5/5 — Great app with lots of value

*2026-04-03, version 2.65.0*

I use this app every week to do my general shop on top of meals for the week. Most of the recipes are delicious with easy to follow instructions. Because the app uses supermarket delivery or click & collect it works out much cheaper than meal kit boxes but with more convenience.

### 4/5 — Some minor tweaks would be good

*2025-12-18, version 2.62.0*

All is good, I just really wish there were 2 things available: 
- change a store on any point of order. I want to see in which one it’s gonna cost less. I even emptied my basket and still can not switch because “I’m amending an order”. 
- be able to search recipes based on extra ingredients that are left from other picked recipes.

### 2/5 — Didn’t understand it

*2025-11-16, version 2.60.0*

Hi, I purchased your pro subscription as I thought we could plan our meals + add leftovers with that subscription but that was not the case. 

Please refund me the 41.99 I spent on this, I had to cancel the subscription and delete my account immediately after since it didn’t have the features I was told it would have.

### 1/5 — Not budget friendly

*2025-11-16, version 2.60.0*

2 recipes 8 portions £4,50 a portion. Recommend £1.50 tinned tomatoes when Tesco are currently offering £0.43 tinned tomatoes. Recipes are wired and wonderful with Jamie Oliver levels of faff. Not recommended for time stretched and budget conscious families. Sorry I really liked the idea of this app as well.

### 1/5 — Cannot signup

*2025-09-23, version 2.58.0*

None of the create account paths allow me to paste a password, or allow iOS to autofill a secure password. So the only way to sign up is to manually add a (likely) insecure password. No thanks.

### 2/5 — Paprika app is better

*2025-09-14, version 2.58.0*

I wanted this to be good. It is not. The paprika app does exactly the same and only costs 5£ one off. 
No unjustified subscriptions

### 2/5 — Previously 5 Stars

*2025-09-01, version 2.57.0*

I loved this app when it was free and I’ve been paying to use its low tier subscription for a while but I feel like I get even less than I did when it was free. 

So many of the recipes have been taken off, there is rarely any new recipes and when there is they are often side dishes or snacks and not full meals. 

The fact that you can’t add in your own recipes without paying for the over expensive tier is ridiculous and means I no longer use the app and I’ve ended up wasting money rather than saving it. 

Overall it’s disappointing and you’re better off spending the subscription money on a couple of recipe books you will actually use.

### 5/5 — Combine shopping for recipes with your everyday shop

*2025-07-26, version 2.57.0*

This app is wonderful. You choose the recipes that you like the look of and it works out what you should order and adds them to your shopping basket. If you already have some of the ingredients you can uncheck them. Then, in addition, you can order any other items that you need. 

My meals are healthier, tastier and cheaper. And it’s getting my teens into cooking too. You can share a recipe for someone else to cook. 

I wish I’d used it sooner. Thank you Cherrypick!

### 5/5 — Healthy, diverse, and a big time-saver!

*2025-06-25, version 2.56.0*

I’ve placed over 10 orders with Cherrypick, and it’s been a great way to eat healthier than I usually do. I’ve also discovered new cuisines I wouldn’t have tried otherwise. The recipes are straightforward, and having everything planned out really saves me time during the week. The only thing I’d improve is the final product list — I usually double-check it to make sure quantities haven’t increased unexpectedly. Other than that, it’s been super convenient and enjoyable!

### 5/5 — Amazingly helpful!

*2025-06-04, version 2.55.0*

I have struggled with planning my meals for ages but this app has helped so much. I waste less food because I use the app to plan my meals for the week and feel like I save money in the long run! I don’t use the delivery function as it’s connected to Sainsbury’s but I use the shopping list function which is just as handy! I’m finally eating healthy thanks to this app, highly recommend!
