### 2/5 — Scan-plan

*2025-08-10, version 4.9.2*

Seems to be a good app other than the fact you have to pay to barcode scan. That should be included in the free.

### 3/5 — fix needed asap

*2025-08-05*

just purchased this app and was really excited to notate all of my food items and have a spot where I can look up recipes with everything I have, but every time I try to open the function to view recipes the app shuts down

### 2/5 — Not user friendly

*2024-12-07, version 4.9.1*

Can’t have the same product name in multiple freezers. The search function is clumsy and annoying. Not intuitive on functionality

### 2/5 — Not super user friendly

*2024-08-24, version 4.9.1*

I was in need of a freezer/fridge/pantry inventory app and this also has shopping list and meal planner capabilities, but I can’t work out how to add my own meals (I don’t need to browse and choose recipes). 
The FAQ on this is unhelpful and attempts to contact the creators of the app have been unsuccessful. 
I’m considering deleting it and using a different app.

### 3/5 — Only works on Apple

*2024-02-20, version 4.9.1*

I really like this app and I would give it five stars if it worked on devices other than Apple. Unfortunately I’d already paid for the household subscription before I realised this. No one else in my household uses Apple so they are unable to use this app, thus rendering it fairly useless to us

### 2/5 — So frustrating

*2023-09-27, version 4.9.0*

Password reset links are glitchy and freeze
Difficult to follow and unhelpful  user guides and FAQ’s
Features advertised are really appealing and have found it challenging to navigate to find easy to follow guides as to how to use them
Tried to use the scan of receipt to import groceries purchased - got a message that I as user and owner of “household” have to authorise myself to use this feature
Have found support request on how to use are delayed in getting a response if a response is even received
Such a shame because the app, in concept and marketing, offer such great functionality that could save time and really help people

### 2/5 — Would be incredible if it worked…

*2023-04-28*

Nothing is more infuriating than an app that alllllmooost works. I was really excited, since it looked like it had every feature I wanted.

When looking for recipes with items I already had in stock, it failed to recognize ingredients in recipes that matched word for word with an item in my pantry. Folks I tried for 30 mins and was never able to help it recognize that “canned peaches” = “canned peaches”. Certainly doesn’t help that after entering in your own recipe, you can no longer edit the ingredients. 

I also had very little success importing my recipes in from other websites or apps. I must have tried 6 or 7 recipe keeper apps and websites before giving up - for short recipes in particular, it always kept claiming that it could not find any recipes on the page, or gave an extremely glitchy failure screen when importing from another app.

### 2/5 — Want to love it

*2022-06-15, version 4.8.11*

When it works it is fantastic!! But it’s glitchy and as a ‘member’ of the household—I keep getting notes to ‘renew’ the household membership. The hours of organizing—and it’s just not working. I am pretty frustrated at this point. It was a 50-50 shot it would load correctly….now I  down to less than 20% at this point.

### 5/5 — Good work

*2022-06-05, version 4.8.11*

After trying *so* many different kitchen management apps (even the $80/yr ones), this one the best.

### 5/5 — Pantry app

*2022-06-04, version 4.8.11*

I had been looking for some type of way to track my fridge/pantry without the overwhelm of poster boards.

### 5/5 — It's okay

*2022-06-04, version 4.8.11*

I've used a professional kitchen manager software for work and this one is perfect for home use.

### 3/5 — Crash

*2022-04-29, version 4.8.5*

I love it!  When it works. Lately it just keeps crashing over and over.  Trying to plan meals but it just keeps shutting down. I’ll probably have to switch. Amazing app when it works though.

### 5/5 — Better chioice

*2022-04-06, version 4.8.2*

I have been downloading almost every application and I feel that this is one of the better ones. Pros, scanning, easy to add and subtract the number of items

### 5/5 — So far I really like it

*2022-02-09, version 4.7.3*

I'm sure I'm not using all the features. Love that I can access this when planning meals without getting up and looking through my cupboard!

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2022-02-09, version 4.7.3*

Well organized app. I like that the inventories and lists, when shared, update instantly with the users they are shared to.

### 1/5 — Not worth

*2024-03-30, version 4.9.1*

Paid £20 for the app and still doesn’t even include all features. Still need to pay an extra £2 per month for an ‘upgrade’. Not worth.

### 1/5 — Installed and deleted in less than 5 minutes

*2024-03-10*

When you are trying an app, you should allow a trial period of all its features. The feature I wanted to test the most , receipt scan, is locked and only available for purchase.
So if it doesn’t work then you are down $$ 
One should be able to test run all of it before purchasing any plan or features
App may be good but I guess I will never find out.

**Developer response:** Hello ReaderManiac
You can try the app for free for 14 days with all features unlocked. Cozzo uses the Apple trial system and you won't be charged if you cancel before the 14 days are over.

### 1/5 — What?

*2023-01-23, version 4.8.12*

How is this helpful?

### 1/5 — Support

*2022-04-25, version 4.8.4*

Maybe the next bug fix could be that requests for support go through email and not get bounced back undeliverable.

### 1/5 — Nothingness

*2022-04-11, version 4.8.3*

I downloaded the app. When I open it…nothing.  Won’t do anything but show me a picture of their logo. 😕

### 1/5 — Good idea, Bad implementation

*2022-02-06*

I have been trying to use Cozzo to manage my herbs and spices on an iOS device. First, there is NO library of herbs or spices, you have to type each one in; not a deal-breaker. Second, the available documentation is really really poor. This is made worse by the non-intuitive interface. I have used a lot of applications over the past 30 years and I think Cozzo’s interface is very non-intuitive. Bombined, these two issues are tough for a user to overcome. Third, there are many instances where Cozzo just freezes up — heck, it may me waiting for some input, it is not possible to tell; this is a real deal-breaker. By way of example, I tried to attach an image to a spice entry. I decided, in the middle, to stop but could not. There was NO WAY to back out of this operation. Again, there may be a way, it just was not at all obvious. I hope these folks continue on and fix these types of problems. I would have preferred they do a lit of this BEFORE they released the product, but . . .

**Developer response:** Hello. 

We're still waiting for your response. Rest assured, we will help you quickly learn all about CozZo and resolve all issues on your device(s). 
Thank you for using CozZo to manage your herbs and spices. We have a number of those in our library but there are some that we still need to add. We would like to discuss your experience with CozZo and improve the interface, please contact us on ivo@cozzo.app
This will also help us identify the reason for freezing that you experience on your device.

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2021-11-08, version 4.6.1*

Would be great, if the used up transferred the item to the shopping cart to be purchased again instead of completely removing it from the inventory, and more UK friendly, as far inventory goes it needs to be clean, efficient and simple - importing products and restocking and sorting products to suppliers I.e grouping products to a supplier bu stating when importing where/who it was purchased from, making it simpler for the user to know where the item can be repurchased from, making supply runs efficient.

### 1/5 — Crashes and will not work period!

*2021-10-02, version 4.5.0*

I’ve attempted to use this app now for several  years. Every time you turn around it’s crashing. I give up. I have no idea how this app remains on the App Store. DONE!

### 1/5 — No customer support

*2021-09-21, version 4.4.4*

Got new phone and now locked out of primary account

### 1/5 — All my food store data lost!

*2021-06-15, version 4.2.6*

Well, I had thought this was a pretty handy app and worth paying the money for. But then they pushed an update through today that has wiped all my food data and replaced it with a very old and out of date list. So think I’ll be looking for something more reliable to use now…

### 5/5 — Good service

*2022-06-16*

Very good service for those who look for a more organized kitchen. There are a lot of settings but many can be put to default or recommended.

### 5/5 — Great choice

*2022-06-16, version 4.8.11*

It took me a while to understand this app but now i fell that it was a great choice.

### 5/5 — All in

*2022-06-16, version 4.8.11*

I enjoy the app, I find it easy to use. It has every feature that I ever wanted in a pantry/recipe/meal plan app.

### 5/5 — I use it very often

*2022-06-16, version 4.8.11*

I like this app because it's such an easy go to in a rush. You can search dishes and get shopping list instantly!

### 5/5 — Goood

*2022-06-11, version 4.8.11*

No glitches, crazily customizable and helpful.

### 5/5 — Unique

*2022-06-11, version 4.8.11*

Not like anything else on the market, you have a digital pantry, shopping list and you can find a recipe based on what you have.

### 5/5 — Back to the app

*2022-06-11, version 4.8.11*

I used this app in 2019, but had to stop because of a change to Android phone. Now I got it again on my new iPhone and I'm super happy.

### 5/5 — Cozzo

*2022-06-09, version 4.8.11*

Cozzo has been a great day for me and my family to keep track of groceries. It's simple to add people and make lists for specific times of year.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-06-09, version 4.8.11*

Would be nice if there was an option to check things off without them disappearing from the list.

### 5/5 — Hooked

*2022-06-09, version 4.8.11*

Shopping for a meal has never been so easy! Keep it up! (Old: Great app overall by first impressions.)
