### 2/5 — Can’t view photos

*2025-12-02, version 2.2.1*

I’m not able to see anything on the recipe menu. There are no photos or anything. I don’t know what’s wrong with this app. I’ve deleted and installed multiple times. I’m still having issues. Not good especially after just paying for it.

### 3/5 — Good recipes, bad interface, not $ worthy

*2025-10-12, version 2.2.1*

Good recipes. Some are excellent. However, the app is annoying to use.  Ingredients and cooking instructions are on different tabs which reset when you go back and forth. Navigating in general is poor. Many recipie are written with shortcut descriptions. They basically took their recipes fro. The website and put them in an app. Not easy to use and not worth the $10.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t motivate me

*2025-09-21, version 2.2.1*

I have been trying to figure out why, even with multiple FOK apps , etc I am not motivated to cook using the info provided. I have figured it out. Looking at the most recent issue of the FOK magazine I realized that all of the photos make the food look very dry and inedible. When I went back to the apps I realized the same is true here. I don’t SEE anything that looks good enough to spend time making and eating.

### 5/5 — Delicious & easy vegan dishes!

*2025-06-17, version 2.2.1*

I love the recipes in Forks Over Knives!  They have recipes for every cuisine with vegetables and seasonings I enjoy!  I get to experience foods from around the world & healthy too!  You won’t be disappointed!!!

### 5/5 — Creative recipes

*2025-06-04, version 2.2.1*

Easy to do meals with these recipes.  Very creative & tasty!

### 5/5 — So Amazing

*2025-04-28, version 2.2.1*

This is an awesome way to share so many wonderful recipes I personally Love this app and think so many people will too! #LOVED IT!
By the way I’m only 12 so you can really tell these recipes are for everyone!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2025-04-19, version 2.2.1*

What an amazing recipe resource for the price. It’s beyond awesome. I love using the grocery list tool and all the recipes are amazing and SOS and low sodium friendly which is cool :) very happy with the newly released recipes as well. Keep up the good work forks over knives.

### 5/5 — Great Recipes

*2025-03-11, version 2.2.1*

Loving the recipes so far on the app!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2025-03-10, version 2.2.1*

I love the feature of working outline. The recipes are easy and clear. excellent app.

### 2/5 — Nutritional content not included

*2025-02-07, version 2.2.1*

Lots of good recipes in a good-looking app but that's about it. There is no nutritional information for any of the recipes, which is just crazy. 

For the price, this app should have considerably more bells and whistles.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-01-21, version 2.2.1*

Hi all, just recently went WFPB and downloaded the FOK app. So far I really like the recipes and the design. It works very well and lots of choices. Well spent money.

### 5/5 — I reverse my hubby’s diabetes

*2025-01-13, version 2.2.1*

Husband was very  sick and suffered major body life changes. He decided to follow my eating habits, he watched your
Documentary and has heard podcast about the movement; now no more daily insulin and his numbers are steady right!  Thank you for changing for good the health of so many. I love your app, so EASY to navigate and recipes are super delicious !! Is not expensive to eat healthy, the cost of insulin we used to have we invest it now in good food .

### 2/5 — I’ve hesitated to make any of the dishes

*2025-01-07, version 2.2.1*

I can’t see the measurements, and I can’t expand them to make them larger. I can’t share the recipe and ingredients list to my notes on my phone or send it to a family member or friend who will want to buy the app also. I can’t see reviews from previous people who made the food. This app is not worth $12 in my opinion, without these changes.

### 5/5 — So Helpful!

*2025-01-04, version 2.2.1*

I’m new to plant-based eating and I love having all of my WFPB recipes in one place! So far, we like everything we’ve made. I think this is perfect, especially for beginners. I can see using it for a long time!

### 5/5 — Can’t go wrong with the recipes and easy to use

*2025-01-04, version 2.2.1*

Love browsing this for inspiration for healthy and delicious recipes.

### 5/5 — Game Changer…

*2025-01-04, version 2.2.1*

The Forks Over Knives Recipe App has been a huge help in making healthier eating easier and more enjoyable. There are so many plant-based recipes to choose from, and they’re all really simple to follow. I’ve been able to find meals that my whole family likes, which is no small feat!

### 5/5 — I use this every single day

*2025-01-04, version 2.2.1*

I have used this app for years to help me think of quick meal and smoothie ideas. My fave one is the pineapple ginger smoothie. But I also use it when in a time crunch for dinner and need an idea. Thanks for making it affordable and for the new recipes each week!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Will not load recipes

*2025-12-05, version 2.2.1*

If I completely reinstall the app, I can see and search recipes, until I close and reopen.  The next time I open the app it shows me no recipes and my favorites list is gone / empty.  Completely useless to reinstall each time and lose all my saved recipes.

### 1/5 — Downloaded years ago. Now all is blank.

*2025-12-03, version 2.2.1*

I'm do disappointed  the app has gone blank. Delete reinstall. Nothing there. What happen to it fix I pay for this.

### 1/5 — NOT VEGETARIAN

*2025-03-09, version 2.2.1*

This app is not for vegetarians. All of the recipes are vegan only so it's effectively useless for 90% of people following plant based diets

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-03-30, version 2.2.1*

I have the recipe book so I thought this would be similar. It’s not. Way too complicated. Just had to throw out the pizza crust. Ps, you can’t roll a pizza crust on parchment and expect it not to stick. Wish I didn’t waste my money on this and the three ridiculously complex recipes I just tried.

### 1/5 — Stop eating plant based

*2023-06-04, version 2.2.1*

Bunch of seed oils and processed garbage

### 1/5 — Horrendous for iPad

*2022-12-07, version 2.2.1*

Basically a stretched iPhone app, this is a total waste of money

### 1/5 — No metric options

*2022-11-21, version 2.2.1*

Three countries in entire world use imperial measurements and the rest use metric, yet this app doesn’t have the option to convert to metric. 
I have requested a refund from Apple.
It’s a shame as there are some good looking recipes, but I’m not going to spend the time converting measurements and temperatures for every single recipe.

Most websites that have recipes give you the option to view the recipe in metric or imperial, so I’m very surprised and disappointed that this app doesn’t.

### 1/5 — Deleted from phone.

*2021-06-12, version 2.2.1*

Crashed my iphone11. Yikes!

### 1/5 — Used to love it

*2021-04-28, version 2.2.1*

I used to love this app so much and have used many of the recipes, which are fantastic. The reason I’m writing this review is lately the app is pretty much unusable. A few times it has frozen my whole phone to the point of having to reset it to do anything. And most recently it seems to get stuck on the opening screen and won’t go any further. Today it happened while I was in the middle of preparing one of the recipes and now I can’t see the next steps I need to follow. My biggest complaint is that I can’t seem to find support. When I click on the app support in the App Store it just brings me to the website and there is no help or support listed anywhere. Please please fix this app so I can love it again! Thank you.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2021-03-15, version 2.2*

This app is horrible. After paying $5 the app would launch but freeze at the home page. I deleted and redownload. Same issue. I opened it and walked away. After a few mins it launched. I got to view a few recipes and needed to open another app but it froze my phone. I can scroll in the app but can’t shut it down the app. I tried to shut down my phone and it beeped 2 times really load. Then my husband gets an alert that I’m placing an emergency call for help. I have a new iPhone 12 max pro. I’m writing this review from my iPad since my phone is still locked in this pathetic app. It’s been over 15 mins and my phone is frozen in the forks over knives app!

*2025-12-13, version 2.2.1*

I love all the new recipes that get added to this app periodically. The recipes are all easy and look so appetizing!
