### 1/5 — Why does it keeps crashing!!!???

*2013-07-14*

It used to be great, now I can't open it to see my recipes!!!! :@

### 1/5 — Crashing...please fix!

*2013-07-10*

Love the app, but it will no longer work. I click on it, it opens, then crashes even before I can read anything. It's worked good until now.

### 1/5 — Current version does not work

*2013-06-29*

Crashes. Great app but now useless. Please fix!!!!!

### 1/5 — Wouldn't know...

*2013-06-27*

Every time I tried opening the app it crashed. Never got to use it.

### 1/5 — Not working properly now.

*2013-02-14*

It used to work the way it was meant too, but now I cannot access my recipes unless I'm online, which makes this thing useless. If I'm offline and try to open the app, it tells me to log in. When I log in, it tells me I'm already log in! Fix this glitch!

### 1/5 — Can't access app anymore

*2013-01-12*

This used to be great, but the app and website have been down for weeks.  I can't log in and the website server seems to be permanently down. Disappointed I've lost all my recipes.

### 1/5 — Skip This App

*2013-01-12*

If you are looking for a recipe app, don't use this one. This app and web site is up and down and now it's been down for several days with no response from the developer. All my recipes are lost in the cloud.

### 1/5 — Forces signup

*2012-11-05*

I am giving minimum rating to every recipe program which denies adding recipes unless you join their stupid website. I just want to store my own recipes on my device, and occasionally share one with a friend. I am NOT interested in joining a website for this simple functionality.

### 1/5 — Cant load it!

*2012-09-11, version 2.4.1*

Just got it, haven't even used it once, it will not load. Crashes when it gets to the 2nd screen. U don't even get time to read it. Boooo!

### 1/5 — Was great when I started now it's broken

*2012-06-03*

When I first got this app, I loved it. I could put all my recipes on my phone for easy access in the kitchen and at the store. Now it refuses to open. I click on it and it closes. I realize I could go tithe website and use it there, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of having an app?  I really wish they would fix this glitch because it has great potential.

### 1/5 — Logged out of the site and now I can't get back in.  There is no assistance offered.  No help!

*2012-03-20*

I have sent an email to them, with no answer.  Now I have tried calling the number listed and get only a voicemail. I left a message, let's see if they answer that!

### 1/5 — Poor execution

*2012-02-04*

Less emphasis on the social, more on the recipes!  The people I'm interested in sharing my recipes with are already eating them.  The app also freezes every time I try to tag something.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2011-12-19, version 2.4.1*

Confusing, ugly and chaotic

### 2/5 — Neat idea, but...

*2011-11-27, version 2.4.1*

but it the bookmarklet seems to crash my browser when I '+Keep Recipe' most any recipe I find.  Yes, this review is not of this particular app, but without the ability to add stuff online this app would be/is useless.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — New app

*2024-12-24*

Can’t join app. Says invalid captcha. Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2024-02-05*

How about….I don’t know, updating the app this decade?? Used to love it on Windows.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2020-10-02*

Black screen, that’s it. Useless

### 1/5 — Couldn’t sign up

*2019-09-24, version 2.4.4*

Kept saying invalid captcha on iPhone and iPad when not actually displaying one. Hence couldn’t sign up.

### 1/5 — 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

*2018-08-31, version 2.4.4*

Persistent error message when signing up.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2015-04-17, version 2.4.1*

Can't log in to account

### 1/5 — Can't login

*2015-04-06*

I have an account on the website but when I hit login on the app nothing happens

### 1/5 — Promising but too flawed

*2014-05-28*

I've had keeprecipe for probably close to three years. I really love the functionality on my PC -- it's very straightforward to clip and tag recipes. But the website is down with increasing frequency, there is only an iPhone app (no iPad, so you have to magnify), and the app only lets you see a certain number of recipes in each category, which defeats the purpose. I'm giving up.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2013-07-19, version 2.4.1*

The app was working fine but since the last update, it always cashes.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2013-07-14, version 2.4.1*

I was very excited because I find an app to store my recipes but it doesn't run. Sad

### 5/5 — Don't let lack of reviews put you off

*2012-08-24, version 2.4.1*

I wasn't expecting much from this app, but it's actually quite good. I've been looking for a way to store my recipes on my iPhone so I can grab em when I'm cooking without getting the books or website up. And this does exactly that :) it also allows you to follow people who upload recipes too!

Recommend for those cooking lovers.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-05-06*

Great integration with website.  Allows me to take my recipes with me to the store when I'm shopping.  I also can access anything in the kitchen, without risking my laptop!

### 5/5 — Gorgeous App!

*2011-11-19, version 2.4.1*

I couldn't ask for a better recipe box.
The app is designed beautifully and is very easy to use.
Have access to great recipes to try and can easily add my own to store and keep safe.
Recommend to anyone who loves the kitchen and their recipe collection.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2011-10-04*

Love having my recipes in one place! Also, they have been very responsive and awesome about fixing bugs. Thanks!!!

### 5/5 — Superb app!!

*2011-08-08, version 2.3*

Finally, making family recipes accessible and social!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2011-08-08, version 2.3*

This is a great app. I wasn't really big on cooking but have gotten into it more because of KeepRecipes. Real easy to find good simple recipes quickly.

### 4/5 — good app, but a few suggestions

*2012-10-11*

I love KeepRecipes, and the app is great! However, a few things would make it much more useful. Firstly, for tags that have a lot of recipes, it only shows so many of them, and then cuts off the list. So there are some recipes that I just don't have access to on the app, which is inconvenient. Also, the ability to search just within my own recipes would be nice as well!

### 3/5 — Good, needs update

*2012-11-13*

Edits I make on mobile don't save to laptop.  It also 'hangs' often when trying to do edits, especially tags

### 3/5 — It Has Potential

*2011-05-22, version 1.0*

I'm going to give this a 3 star simply because it looks like someone really worked hard on ease, layout & ingenuity.  I don't see any other apps out there that does what this app would like to do so if they can tweak it & fix a few bugs, it could be huge!

First off, I don't see why when wanting to add my own recipes that the first step is take a picture.  That should not only be the last step, in the process, but optional.  

Secondly, there needs to be an edit delete function to get rid of duplication. Or simple human error.  There is not.  

In doing Weight Watchers, I love the concept of this app.  If it worked like it says you should be able to, it would be a golden gem!  I could "sell" it to other WW members & we could all share recipes with one another thru the app and/or site so please, please tweak & fix it!  Thanks. :-)

### 2/5 — Average app

*2013-02-04, version 2.4.1*

There are far better recipe apps out there with better interface. When you scroll through the photos you have to click to the next lot of photos but this should be automatic like other app. Also, when you click into a recipe it takes you back to the start of the group of photos but it should go back to where it left off, very annoying. Also, I tried saving recipes but it didn't work for some, must be a glitch.
