Accidental deletions

My family and I share this app and we love it. The only suggestion I would like to make is that there be certain time allowance to retrieve accidentally deleted recipes.

Just what we needed

One place to collect recipes from any source. Edit them now or after your tastes change next year. Calculate nutrition. Organize. Tag.

Great App for Saving g Online Recipes

I use this app all the time for saving and filing away my favorite recipes and having an organized in one place I can use it on my phone in the kitchen iPad or my computer. It just makes saving recipe so much easier.

Awesome!

I’m not, what I would call, a ‘fancy’ cook, but I entertain extended family at home a lot, and I’m always looking for new recipes that will be stress free. I didn’t want to pay for a recipe app, thinking I wouldn’t use it enough to justify it, but I ended up paying for this one. Soooo glad I did! I’ve thrown it some massive tests, like a recipe video from Facebook, in German - no problems (just need to translate it - it provides the translation options) - or a video in English, but it sources all the ingredients and directions from … I don’t know where?! Import - choose app - wait 5 sec - done! Amazing!! I don’t know what I paid for this app, and I don’t care. Absolutely the best money I’ve spent on an App!

Such a great app

I love the app. I got it a few years ago and it just keeps getting better and better.

Great App

This app is so easy to use. Easy to download from Facebook, Instagram & from a favorite cookbook. Makes finding recipes & making a grocery list so much easier.

Perfect for all your TikTok Recipes

I downloaded the app to try and organise all the recipes my family would find on TikTok and send to me. It has been amazing to export the videos to the app for a whole collection in one place. I search the app for a recipe, and have the ingredients on one screen and a screen for the method/instructions. The only downfall I’ve found is not being able to share it with my partner and husband so they can add their own TikToks. Other than that it has been perfect.

This app is *chef’s kiss*

This is an example of an app that does EXACTLY what you want it to do, and has even added some features recently that are shockingly convenient (like one-click importing from Instagram). It is so satisfying to use and makes recipe management/use so easy. Best $10 I spend every year.

The best app you’ll ever have!

I’ve always loved this app for its ease of use and excellent features to import recipes and keep your recipes organized. You can easily import recipes from websites by copying and pasting the URL or sending it to the Cookbook app. It’s way easier to follow recipes on this than how they often are on a website, full of ads. You can change the serving amount and it adjusts the recipe automatically. And now it’s even more spectacular with the added AI feature. You can scan or take a picture of a recipe and it scans it in to all the sections on the recipe easily! You can add tags to easily find recipes in many categories and even add your own tags such as Cold Dinners for hot days. It’s also easy to share recipes and print as a perfect looking PDF. They truly thought of everything. Thank you for making our lives so much easier!

Ease of use

Easy to save recipes. Easy to navigate

Too many cookbooks

I have my own personal cookbook and a bunch of others that I use. Having this Cookbook app is a Big plus. I can take a scan , picture or copy it with problems or tweak the recipe if I want.
I recommend this app easy to use.

Liked the older version better

I really love having the app and use it all the time. I prefer the original version over the current version. It’s not as issuer friendly as it used to be and sometimes I have trouble finding certain recipes

Love all the new additions to this app

I’ve had this app for a few years and I am a lifetime subscriber. Great you can buy it outright, well done! The addition of the AI scanning is amazing and has saved me so much time when photographing recipes. Just love it all round!

Great online cookbook

I had been searching for years to organise all my recipes so I had them all in one place instead of looking through pages and pages of books or folders I had accumulated. I also wanted access to them when away at our holiday home. Then I came across this app and it was perfect and versatile, everything you could ever want in order to store favourite recipes. I have not been disappointed. It will take me a while to put them all in but it helps that you can find the recipe online and download it straight into the app. So whoever designed this big thank you

Lost All My Recipes

I had been using this app for awhile and decided to update it. They updated to some sort of subscription model and I lost all my recipes and instructions stored here. Terrible App.

Highly Recommend

This app has streamlined cooking for me making it easy to store recipes from lots of different places in one place. Within the app I can plan my meals and create a shopping list for the week within minutes. Well worth the subscription!

Update has ruined the app

This app was great and didn’t need updating. I’ve given this a few months to try and get used to the new UI but it is rubbish. Way more difficult to find recipes, homepage is pointless and the search function doesn’t work properly and brings up a load of irrelevant recipes that don’t match the search before the one you are looking for. It also looks worse. Update for updates sake and they’ve ruined a great app which did exactly what it was supposed to in an easy to navigate and simple form.

Really am enjoying this app

I really like this app a lot. I do have one issue with it. Why don’t recipes cross over from my iPhone to iPad and vice versa. I don’t always have my iPad with me, and I have a lot of recipes that appear to not be on that device! Is there a solution to this that I don’t know about?
