I was really looking forward to trying this app, as the feature set sounded good and I've been looking for an app that could give me a place where I could not only store recipes, but generate new ones. AppAdvice said that this came with 6 months free today, but I'm unable to get past the install. When I try to use "Sign in with Apple" it simply returns to that same screen - over and over and over. **Developer response:** Sorry for the trouble you experienced! The sign-in issue has now been completely fixed — Please update and give it another try. As a thank-you for your patience, we’d love to offer you a free promotion code.

It has a lot of recipes. It has one flaw. I can not import my own recipes that I have used over the years and do not want to get rid of.

It’s super simple to use, and the AI comes up with some really tasty recipe ideas based on whatever ingredients I have. I’ve been able to try dishes I wouldn’t have thought of on my own. I just wish there was a way to customize the recipes a bit more to my dietary needs. Otherwise, it’s a solid app for anyone who needs help figuring out what to cook. **Developer response:** Hi there, We are very pleased you are enjoying Zesto, we definitely will keep your idea in mind. ### 5/5 — Enjoying so far! *2024-10-20* The app is really cool for generating new food recipes! **Developer response:** Hi there, Glad you are liking the app so far. ### 5/5 — Time-Saving Recipe App with Helpful Chef Tips *2024-10-20, version 1.0.3* This app has been a game-changer for my family! It makes finding any recipe I'm looking for so easy. I love how simple and quick the process is, and it saves me so much time. Sometimes, I just input whatever ingredients I have at home, and it generates a great dish for me. The chef's tips at the end of each recipe are a nice touch—I always look forward to reading them because they're so helpful. However, it would be even better if the app included nutritional information! ### 5/5 — Perfect for busy weeknights *2024-10-17, version 1.0.2* I’m always in a rush to get dinner ready after work, and this app has really been a lifesaver. It’s super simple to use—just enter whatever ingredients you have on hand, and the AI instantly suggests easy-to-follow recipes. I also love how you can tweak the recipes to your taste, like making them spicier or leaving out things you don’t like. One of my favorite features is that you can save all your recipes in your own digital cookbook, which makes it so convenient to come back to later. If they added a meal planner, it’d be perfect. Overall, it’s an awesome app, especially if you’re busy and need quick meal ideas! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
