Can even share the recipes I store with family and friends. ### 5/5 — Excellent!! *2026-08-06, version 1.56.0* I love this app! It’s so easy to use & amazing how it can even convert a handwritten recipe into the app. It’s brilliant. ### 5/5 — Handy App! *2026-08-05, version 1.56.0* Great app to keep all your online recipes on! It has saved me so much space :) I love it so much, don’t need to be scrambling around on TikTok or my photo app looking for the recipes ### 4/5 — Love it ….except *2026-08-05* I really love the app except I am unable to delete recipes that have been shared to me. They’re clogging up my library & I want them out. Am I missing something or am I stuck with a bunch of unwanted recipes? ### 5/5 — Best app out there *2026-08-05, version 1.56.0* Best app I’ve ever had in my entire life, let’s all hope the owners don’t destroy it in later future. I hope this app stays free and the best always. It helps my adhd to focus on simply sets of words when I’m in cook mode. ### 5/5 — Best app! *2026-08-05, version 1.56.0* A friend put me on to this and I’m so happy she did! I use it all the time and actually try the recipes I save now! ### 5/5 — Life Saving *2026-08-04, version 1.56.0* Honestly thought it was too good to be true! This app saves so much time and means we can look back on recipes or try new things!!!! ### 5/5 — Best app ever! *2026-08-03* This is one of my favorite apps! I was always messaging or emailing myself recipes from socials and they were all over the place. Clove is so easy and keeps everything beautifully organized. It’s quick and easy and now I can just go to my recipe library to browse something that looked good or find something for an occasion. I’ve shared this with friends who also love it … Thank you, Clove! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We love hearing that Clove has replaced the scattered screenshots and self-texted links with one beautifully organized library, and it means a lot that you're sharing it with friends too. Happy cooking! ### 5/5 — Une application incroyable *2026-08-03* Enfin une application comme je la rêvais ! On peut importer les recettes de n’importe quel endroit : internet , réseaux sociaux et même nos recettes manuscrites . Tout est mis en page et plus qu’à lancer la recette . Si la recette est dans une autre langue , on peut demander à l’avoir dans sa langue favorite . Bref génialissime ! Ils répondent très rapidement à nos questions et se montrent disponibles. Merci à Clove et ses développeurs Longue vie à Clove 😀 **Developer response:** Merci infiniment pour ce message si chaleureux ! Nous sommes ravis que l'import depuis internet, les réseaux sociaux et même vos recettes manuscrites vous soit aussi utile, et que notre équipe ait pu vous aider rapidement. Bonne cuisine avec Clove ! ### 5/5 — Everything I’ve ever wanted in a recipe app! *2026-08-02* First off, how is something this fabulous free?! If you’re like me and you save videos of recipes from content creators but forget about them this is the perfect app for you! Easy to upload recipes from Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The creators of this app covered all the bases to make sure planning, organizing, cooking, and rating meals is seamless and super user friendly. Planning my weekly meals has never been easier, I have a grocery list already made for me, can follow step by step directions (so I don’t get overwhelmed seeing all the directions at once) and can rate if we liked the meal or not so we remember for next time. I can share my recipes with my husband so he can have them at his fingertips too! I’m sure as I use this app more I will find more incredible aspects of it but it’s safe to say I’m obsessed. **Developer response:** Wow, thank you for such a detailed and generous review! It's wonderful to hear the whole flow, from importing those saved social videos to planning, grocery lists, and step-by-step cooking with your husband, is working so seamlessly for you. Enjoy discovering even more as you go! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-08-02, version 1.56.0* I just discovered the app by watching the 7News Perth. Loving it! I can put all the recipes from my books here. The app works fine. ### 5/5 — Ease of use *2026-08-02, version 1.56.0* Just started importing my recipes from my lever arch file. Just snap a photo and import. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-08-01, version 1.56.0* So nice to have everything at my figure tips and not having to scroll looking for stuff. ### 5/5 — Best recipe app I’ve found so far *2026-07-30, version 1.56.0* No limitations on saving recipes to subscribe! ### 4/5 — Excellent alternative to RecipeMe *2026-07-29, version 1.55.1* There are a few bugs here (mostly from trying to save Instagram reel recipes) and there but overall this app is a fantastic app to save online recipes! ### 5/5 — Just starting using and loving it! *2026-07-29, version 1.55.1* This is a great free app ### 5/5 — Import recipes for free *2026-07-28, version 1.55.1* Just opened my Clove app and transferred some recipes from TikTok. I was surprised how quick and easy and accurate it was. I love this app. Thank you so much! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t upload all the ingredients! *2026-02-28, version 1.35.0* Of the two recipes I uploaded, one only had garlic powder as the ingredients and the other missed the main ingredient! ### 1/5 — I can’t even get in to use it *2025-09-16, version 1.24.1* Unfortunately I can’t even access the app. It doesn’t allow you to even access it. I have tried to access it so many times and I get an email that takes me nowhere. Hopefully the developers work it out. ### 1/5 — Can’t import from substack *2025-05-02* App made it seem like it could import recipes from substack. Tried it multiple times and it didn’t work. What is it with apps and false advertising smh **Developer response:** We're so sorry to hear you ran into an issue! We do support importing from Substack as long as the content is free. If you could send over more details to hello@clove.kitchen we'd be happy to look into it for you. ### 1/5 — I had high hopes but doesn’t work well *2025-04-12* I was excited by the combination of finding recipes and also saving my recipes down but the app doesn’t work in the US…tried saving a recipe from a blog but it only got the title **Developer response:** Hi Jane Boots, thanks for reviewing Clove on our first day in the app store. We’re happy to hear you’re excited about Clove and we’re sorry that importing from a blog didn’t work well for you. We haven’t had any other reported errors on this feature in the US, but if you send an enquiry to hello@clove.kitchen we can look into it for you. ### 2/5 — Great app *2026-05-28* Absolutely amazing for me as a new person to the gym trying to get in shape helping me meal plan please keep the app the way it is ### 2/5 — Promising but flawed *2026-03-03, version 1.35.0* So I had to throw away 6 cakes, I bake this receipt on a regular basis and I couldn’t figure out what went wrong this time, I went to the recipe which I followed on here, and found out that it had given the indirect measurement for one the ingredients, as it had confused evaporated milk for whole milk. Because of this I had added too much of one ingredient which resulted in the cakes being inedible. Other than this I had no issues but clearly Ai is not perfect and makes inaccuracies, for baking this is a big issue and so I wouldn’t recommend it for this purpose ### 2/5 — Not importing ingredients *2026-02-28* I'm sure this must be a bug but I tried importing six recipes and all of them were missing ingredients. Most of them showed no ingredients at all and others were missing key ingredients. Otherwise the app looked pretty good and did not seem to have a paid subscription plan, which is unusual. ### 3/5 — Disappointed *2026-07-29, version 1.55.1* Don’t make an app completely free and advertise it that way just to turn around and add payment plans. It’s like watching your favorite tv show character get killed. ### 4/5 — Язык *2026-08-19* Русский язык будет? ### 4/5 — Love it *2026-08-07, version 1.57.0* Amazing app, so helpful but can be improved, like shorten methods and quicker to import the recipes ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Удобно и быстро *2026-08-21* Очень удобно выгружать рецепты из Инстаграма, теперь все в одном месте. Можно рассортировать рецепты по разным коллекциям ### 5/5 — Importing recipe *2026-08-18* It’s unbelievably easy to import from Instagram or anywhere else love it **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words! Making it effortless to save recipes from Instagram and beyond is exactly what we hoped for, so we're thrilled it's working so well for you. Happy cooking! — The Clove Team ### 5/5 — Jaw dropping *2026-08-17* Detects languages from text or video. Stunning app! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for this glowing review! We're thrilled the language detection for text and video is helping you get the most out of Clove. Happy cooking! ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-16, version 1.58.0* So easy to use, a helpful tool to help me cook ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-08-16* Love this app! So easy to import recipes and even edit them once imported. And love that it's free **Developer response:** Thank you for the love! We're so glad importing and editing recipes feels effortless, and that the free version fits your needs. Happy cooking! ### 5/5 — MUST USE *2026-08-12* I started using Clove a few months ago. I always find great recipes on social media. But when you save them, and then need it later on you have to go digging through pics and all that jazz and it’s annoying. BUT with Clove, it is hands down one of the best apps ever! It’s beyond easy to use and you can have multiple users. Honestly, get the app! You’ll never regret it! **Developer response:** Wow, thank you so much for this! We love hearing that Clove has made saving recipes from social media so much easier, and that the multi-user feature is working well for you. Happy cooking! ### 5/5 — Make meal times easy! *2026-08-11* Clove makes meal planning and prep infinitely easier. My partner and I can both see what’s on the plan for the week and can add to the shopping list when something runs out so that I don’t need to keep a running list in my head 🤯. Both of us can get started on dinner with easy to follow recipes and family favourites in our weeknight folder. Searching for ideas by ingredient stops me from wasting food with so many brilliant recipes by great chefs available to choose from in the library. I cannot recommend Clove more highly. It helps me manage the juggle of work/home life with my partner with less stress. Thank you 🙏 **Developer response:** Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! We love hearing how Clove helps you and your partner stay in sync on meal planning and the shared shopping list. Wishing you many more easy, stress-free weeknight dinners ahead — thank you! ### 5/5 — Best recipe organizer app *2026-08-11* This is THE best recipe organizer app out there and it’s completely free. Being able to import any recipe from most platforms is so easy. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled that importing recipes from anywhere has made organizing so easy for you. Happy cooking! ### 5/5 — My favourite app *2026-08-09, version 1.57.0* I never write reviews but I love this app, easy to save recipes in one place rather than in different apps/images/notes. Like that I can catagorise them too. This is what AI should be used for! ### 5/5 — Exceptionnel ! *2026-08-07* Application très pratique , simple à utiliser. Fini les recherches de recettes interminables sur insta ! Dommage que les propositions de recettes de l’application soient souvent en anglais **Developer response:** Merci infiniment pour ce message, ça nous touche beaucoup ! On est ravis que Clove vous évite les recherches interminables sur Insta. Merci aussi pour votre retour sur les recettes en anglais, on le note avec attention. Belle cuisine à vous ! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
