## What is Cooking Calculator?

### 2/5 — Ads Make App Unusable

*2023-12-10*

I really liked the how the app functioned, but it’s unusable when trying to convert several ingredients for a recipe due to the lengthy pop up ads. I’m deleting and moving on.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-12-19*

First selection I tried to make for dry weights took me out of the app, did it every time I tried.

### 1/5 — Unusable...app just crashes.

*2020-12-30*

Love the idea of the app, but whenever I try abs select an ingredient, the app just crashes. Wasn’t able to use the app for a single calculation.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2020-02-16*

Ads are so intrusive it makes the app unusable, especially since there’s other free apps that fill the same exact purpose without ads. Figure out a way to make the ads flow within the app and it’ll be a more attractive and usable version of what already exists for free.
