Great
We’ve been getting Dinnerly for years and it’s been fantastic. However the latest update has made the app hard to use during cooking. The cooking atep pages are now 80% useless images of the step number and the text box now has text too big to fit on one page and requires scrolling. Please fix this. I’ve had to resort to using the step preview to cook meals.

So many issues
I really did try and stick it out while they were getting a new supplier, but the amount of items that were missing or substituted or spoiled from the box each week was really getting out of hand and the final straw was when instead of sending ingredients to make the grits that I was looking forward to they instead sent me some rice. And there was no real accountability. They would just provide a small compensation that got added to the next weeks box and because every week there were at least eight things wrong with each box. It just kept getting compounded over and over again so that there was never anyone meal that was actually fully provided for. Really frustrating to deal with.

App doesn’t open
I downloaded the app, tried several times even restarted my phone, but it just doesn’t open, tries to open then closes immediately
Missing ingredients, recipe cards, and shipments
I subscribed for about a year and would regularly get boxes that didn’t have all the ingredients didn’t have recipe cards or delivered damaged or not at all. The recipe collection used the same ingredients so I ended up getting really sick of eggplants and zucchinis and sweet potatoes but I didn’t have a lot of other choices.

Started great, turned into a complete mess
This was great for a while but has turned HORRIBLE - food does not arrive, no communication, or arrives spoiled and late. Would not recommend.
Some non food related issues
I’ve been using Dinnerly for several years now and I’m quite happy with the food quality and choices. I was going to give this a 3 star review based on secondary issues, but I felt the food plan alone deserved the 4 stars.
OnTrac is not a very good delivery service. Delivery instructions on file and printed on the label say “deliver to back door”, which is in the shade. They continue to leave the box on the front porch, directly in the afternoon sun. The porch is elevated with 5 steps, I’ve caught a few drivers on camera standing below and simply tossing the box onto the porch, splitting the box open and occasionally damaging the contents.
App issue. I use this app on my iPad, and read cooking instructions from the iPad when cooking. The latest update stops the app screen from auto rotating. The ingredients screen never rotated, portrait only, which I’m fine with, but the screen would rotate when you hit the start cooking button so I could rotate the screen to horizontal and lean it against the wall behind my cutting board. Now it stays in portrait, which means if I try to lean it against the wall or set it upright it’s sitting on the charging cable coming out of the iPad. Now I have to sit it flat on the counter so I don’t damage the charging cable and it’s taking up space needed for cooking. Could you please update the app and bring back auto rotate.
Thank you.

Great for vegetarians, but cancelled
The number of tasty vegetarian recipes is surprising and really great. Unfortunately Dinnerly has been on a downward trend for awhile in terms of on-time delivery and supplying the correct ingredients. I’ve since cancelled my subscription
No good for diabetics.
My family has happily used this app for years now. But now it’s no good to good for us. Because my Son and my Wife are type 1 diabetic it was very useful to have the carbohydrates (per 100g) displayed in the nutritional information. This way regardless of the portion size we could easily calculate their required insulin by simply weighing their portion.
Now the information provided had emitted the carbohydrates per 100g amount, it’s much more complicated to work out insulin doses. Since this is an everyday part of our life’s, that’s enough motivation for us to look for another supplier.
Is there any chance you can add this information back into the app?
Regards
Lance.

App useless
As a first time user, I’ve found the app quite frustrating. It continually times out, spends a lot of time loading, and can be difficult to navigate. Simple tasks take Longer than they should because of the apps issues. I’m hoping the recipes and meals are better than the app experiences so far, as the ordering experience hasn’t made a good first impression.

Great for vegetarians
The number of tasty vegetarian recipes is surprising and really great. My delivery is usually on time and they rarely forget an ingredient, however ingredients don’t always last till the end of the week so if you’re ordering 4 meals a week like I am, don’t wait till Sunday to make the last one.
The app is a little bare-bones and hasn’t really improved in years (if anything it’s gotten a bit worse). Pictures for each step would be a very welcome addition. Also, the meal prep almost always takes longer than the app predicts. But generally bug/useability fixes would go a long way.
All that said, Dinnerly is great, give it a try!

Bring back the per 100g in the nutritional info. Dinnerly is supposed to make my life easier and now it’s harder

Horrible Meal Kits
I’ve tried for 3 weeks and each week at least 2-3 meals in my 4 meal plan were wrong
They don’t send the orders you pick and ingredients are always missing

Where did it go wrong?
Everything has gone downhill over the last 12 months. Price increases on basic meals, lack of variety amongst anything that wasn’t an extra cost. They have a platform to rate the delivery - no matter how many times you say a product is missing or wasn’t delivered properly they never contact you about that feedback. Now they’re hiding all the prices outside of their marketplace. So you don’t realise you’ve added a meal that cost extra per serving until you get to the cart. No way to filter these meals in and out or sort by pricing. They’re counting on customers to not look or to not be bothered to go back and pick something else. Poor form, does not pass the pub test.

Worst meal subscription
Worst subscription box ever. Packaged raw meat on top of produce and meat leaked all over. Tried emailing twice with no response.
Reimbursed $10 for a $160 missing Dinnerly box
My box didn’t arrive so I emailed Dinnerly support to let them know. Gave all the details. Wrong house, wrong photos of my house. Lack of Dinnerly box. They responded 2 days later with a “so sorry that happened, here’s $10 as compensation”
Meanwhile I had to spend more money on groceries hoping to receive my money back, and now nothing. It’s been 4 days since my delivery has been delivered and Dinnerly support is doing nothing.

They send the cheapest food by default
If you don’t select what meals you want every week they will send the cheapest meals they can to you. The app knows what you enjoy already when you go to pick your meals but that isn’t factored into what they send by default at ALL. The food sent is based off of the 7 very general preferences and meat selection only. Not worth $75! It was originally $55 when I signed up. Just avoid this scam company.

Unprofessional, rude, scammers
Utterly disgusted. It made a second account without my knowledge and charged me twice for two separate boxes. One I never even authorized. And when I reached out to customer service they proceeded to yell at me and then refused to admit their wrongdoing and refused me a refund. Will NEVER use them ever again. Not to mention the constant missing ingredients, late packages, and my orders would consistently be changed back to the default meals that I did not choose

Trash
Only do this if you are sure and have money to burn. They will immediately charge you and send you an order you did not want. Do NOT recommend.
Went downhill so fast
I’ve always had shipping problems, but that’s generally a FedEx thing. However, they forgot to ship my box and I didn’t get a tracking number until an hour after I was supposed to get my box. By the time the box got to me, two days late, it was warm and the ice had melted. I requested assistance to see if they felt it was safe to eat. No reply. So they don’t even take food safety seriously.
