Just be careful with the free trial
Limited In Choice, Capped On Refreshes
TL;DR: The app is good however, be aware of limited recipe choices, be prepared to shop across multiple stores, and that the free trial is not long enough to find out what I have.
A week of using this app was positive however, I soon hit the limitations of what it provides. And that’s when the trial ended and I was charged £35 for an annual subscription.
Firstly, supermarket choices do nothing for the suggestions - I very often got ingredients that required shopping at multiple supermarkets to fulfil the ingredient list.
Secondly, the recipes and images / videos for them seem to be either pulled from social media, or what I suspect worse, AI - not really something I’d expect to be paying a premium for.
Thirdly, if I wasn’t happy with one of the recipes, the app gave me an option of regenerating it however, this is capped to 20 refreshes and the recipes mostly followed the same theme. Even worse, I got the same recipe suggestion 4 times out of my limited refreshes.
This app seems to be a wrapper for a much more white-label framework for which, socials are beginning to flood with alternatives. If I could get my money back for my subscription, I would!

Pricey
For an AI driven app that’s not exactly complicated to make yourself, £13 a month isn’t worth it. I’d pay more like £2 a month. This really isn’t worth the price. You’re better off asking any chat bot app to do the same thing.
It’s a well designed app, and credit due, they have done a good job with making it feel intuitive. The only main issue, aside the price, is the meals. They aren’t really that interesting. I’ve tried all sorts of combos, and it seems to just focus on the same things, rather basic meals.

Needs serious work
Tried it, selected vegan as a dietary requirement and it pretty quickly suggested a fish dish. I lost confidence in it from that.
Have to pay
Downloaded the app and then have to pay before you can use the app.
Potential good but not good
The biggest issue with this app is that if you set to have do dietary requirements it offer you ALWAYS meals with meat, chicken or fish. I personally balance my diet and eat animal based one or twice per week. No way to do it with this app!
Subscription???
I really like the idea of the app but u need to pay 40$ a year, I really do not wanna spend money on an app in which I am gonna import TikTok’s for the rest of time. Maybe start adding some advertising.
Don't let the free trial start
The app says it will give you two days notice to cancel the free trial. Yes I should have also checked but when you're busy you can completely forget. The app is also not worth spending money on. I do feel scammed as the app on multiple occasions said it would provide a warning to cancel the free trial and I had absolutely nothing.

So helpful
This app makes life so much easier! It has been a game changer for my adhd… I would be lost without it now.
Life changing
So cost saving, insane app
Super Einkaufs und Kochhilfe
Es gibt ne kostenlose Test Version aber ich kann die Pro Version absolut empfehlen, die app ist so ein Game changer für meine Wochenplanung. Ich bin inspiriert zu neuen Rezepten und sie hilft gleichzeitig mein Budget einzuhalten
Loving this app!
This app is so helpful!! It makes figuring out what to eat so much easier especially when I hhave no idea what to eat 😍
Excellent App!!
I’ve had Herbi now for a few weeks and it’s completely changed my cooking and shopping game. I’ve saved loads of money at Aldi, and am now eating much cleaner, healthier and more interesting meals!! Would definitely recommend
Brilliant App!
Herbi has been excellent, I have used it for weeks now and have noticed a significant lack of waste when it comes to unnecessary food I buy in the shop.
One of the best meal planning apps!!
I actually love this app so much. It changed the game for me when grocery shopping as someone who doesn’t have a lot of time too cook but loves buying enough food to feed a whole family. It makes everything extremely easy to follow and gives you a ton of options to choose from!!
Recommend it to anyone
I have been using this app now for over a month, I find it so easy to use especially as a dyslexic following instructions and budgeting can be hard for me. I enjoy picking out my meals every week and food shopping doesn’t seem so daunting anymore, I only wish that there was breakfast and lunch added so I can plan out for those too so I can use the budgeting money to its full potential. It’s a great app I’m really enjoying using it, I’m sure the more people use it too the better it will get with the feedback.

Questionable
The App won’t get past the “Import from Socials” page. All text doesn’t not fit on the screen either
Triathlete
One of the coolest ways to cook up meals that I thought were way too hard to cook!
Budget problem
Put my budget in as 20 a week as I wanted cheap meals picked 5 meals and came to around 60 pound? What’s the point in being able to set a budget if the app won’t stick to it. Each meal was £10 plus for really really simple meal I could go to supermarket for and find all ingredients for half the price.

doesnt work
Didnt have to pay, there is a free trial.
My only restricions are that i dont eat meat and that i dont have a microvave. The first recipe the app suggest is some fried chicken chickpea dish. Not for me. The next one is a lenthil microwave soup or something like that.
So it didnt take my restrictions into consideration at all.
Problem number two is the veriaty of meals. I had badically 3 options only. Something with lenthils, something with chickpeas or something with sweet potatoe. it keeps repeating slightöy different but essentially the same recipies.
Importing your own recipies works a little if the video you get it from really has the whole recipe somehwere (which is barely the case for most recipies)
apart from all of that is the app buggy. it wouldnt let me look at the recipies i picked out dor the week. instead it keeps showing me the only one i added and have opened last.
the idea of the app is great. If the developers get to fixing all of these mistakes i might try again. and please add more variety in food recipe options.
