### 5/5 — Great inspiration!

*2026-08-27, version 504.6.1*

Easy to follow recipes. A large variety of tasty and well-balanced everyday meal ideas. Some new inspiration ideas for fancy menus too!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-08-23, version 504.6.1*

Let me save you some time-to look at ANY recipe you need to subscribe. I only downloaded this app because I saw it as an ad and the recipe looked really good. Well I didn’t even see that recipe, and every recipe I did look at didn’t even sound appetizing.

### 1/5 — Acess to recipe

*2026-08-23, version 504.6.1*

Joined the app after annoying notes to do so. Now cant get access to recipe unless i subscribe

### 1/5 — Misleading, doesn’t do what it advertises

*2026-08-21, version 504.6.1*

Can’t access all options without subscribing, which locks you in for 6 months and no way to cancel. Can’t upload own recipes or other websites. Basically a scam. This is the 9th recipe app I’ve tried today in my search for the best one, its ads are misleading and is by far the worst app.

### 5/5 — Great ideas

*2026-08-21, version 504.6.1*

I seemed to be cooking the same meals constantly, and when I ask the family what they want to eat I get no ideas! I downloaded the app for recipe ideas and have already got a few to test. I love that you can search by ingredient and then see what pops up. Fingers crossed we will have some new favourites after this week. 🙂

### 1/5 — Good Food

*2026-08-20, version 504.6.1*

Very confusing app. I was using a menu and it suddenly disappeared and i could not find it again

### 4/5 — Best recipe cookbook

*2026-08-19, version 504.6.1*

Love this app. It’s my go-to place whenever I fancy trying something new or want to try a recipe with a specific ingredient. One thing that I personally think would improve it is it would be great if there was an area where you could note any alterations you make to a recipe. Apart from that, great.

### 5/5 — Great app, lovely food.

*2026-08-19, version 504.6.1*

Love these recipes. They never fail to provide inspiration  for chefs of any capability and with so many recipes to choose from.They always update their recipe collection too so it would be very hard to run out of new things or variations to try.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-17, version 504.6.1*

I love the good food app, just wish when you save there is an option to make notes to adjust to specific requirements and tastes

### 5/5 — Many ways to cook Everything

*2026-08-17, version 504.6.1*

Put anything in the search, and a multitude of ideas appear.
