Great for inventory management

This app is excellent for managing my kitchen inventory, which was out of control before I downloaded this app. Now I can easily see what I need and don’t. I love the concept of the recipe match up, but it honestly needs further development before I can really rely on it. It often takes me to meal suggestions that don’t make sense once I review the ingredients, as it relies heavily on how the inventory is categorized and there are a lot of errors here still, for example categorizing “Beef Tallow”, a fat, as ground beef, or Diaya Mac and Cheese as cheese. It also substitutes ingredients that don’t need substituted because I have the actual ingredient, which seems odd to me. These are minor and I’m sure will be addressed with time, but if I could rely on the recipes more, I would use this app a lot more and give it all 5 stars. To me that’s the most unique thing this app has going for it and the thing with the best potential to pull everything together into an app I can’t live without. Mostly right now I export my inventory to a pdf, feed it to Gemini and ask it what I should make and it gives me 3 good recipes I can immediately work with, along with a shopping list for what I don’t have, and or feasible substitutions for what I have that might work.

Response from developer

Hi! Thank you for using KitchenPal and for sharing your feedback with us. Regarding your concern about recipe recommendations, our app uses the 'associated ingredient' to categorize a product and to find recipes that can be used with it. Please email us at support@kitchenpalapp.com so we can assist you with finding recipes with what you have. Also, you mentioned that you have the actual product, but it is still being substituted -this is unusual. Our team will look into this issue. In the meantime, you can also disable the substitutions from the profile page. Thank you!

Awkward and limited

I am really disappointed in this app, which I find awkward and difficult to use for anything other than foods with barcodes. I did buy the premium. All I need is something to keep track of my freezer inventory and I buy fresh, whole foods rather than boxed and packaged. I apparently cannot, for example, add X number of cups of cooked brown rice, or 3 servings of a homemade casserole that I’ve packaged up for future meals. In fact I cannot add cups of anything, only weight measurements. I can’t add 4 chicken breasts, I can only add how many ounces, which is so unhelpful.

If there is a way to add such out of-their-box items it requires so much effort honestly it’s faster to just use notebook paper stuck to the fridge with a magnet. I don’t need shopping lists and recipes, I just need something to help track inventory. This app is a pain.

Fantastic app and customer service

Such a helpful app. You can add in recipe links and it tells you what you’re missing. Also, I had an issue with my login and found the email customer service to be swift and really helpful!

A waste of time

I wanted to like this and app and even paid for the premium version but it’s horrible. I spent hours scanning items only to find that it associates things like ketchup as a cheese ingredient, Thai peanut sauce with peanut butter, and it won’t show you recipes that include water unless you add water. It gives you the option to change the associated ingredient but it won’t doesn’t save it. I shouldn’t even have to tell it that ketchup isn’t cheese. Recipes are a joke. It will tell you that you have all the ingredients only to find you have only one. Yes one! It seems that this app isn’t even close to being complete and uses the users time and energy to create their own database.

Hi! Thank you for using KitchenPal, and we’re sorry to hear that your experience with the app wasn’t as expected. We want to assure you that our team is continuously working to improve the system, especially in ensuring the accuracy of product details and associated ingredients. The issues you mentioned -being unable to edit associated ingredients and only seeing one available ingredient from recommended recipes, while the app indicates that all ingredients are available are definitely unusual and not the intended behavior. Could you please email us at support@kitchenpalapp.com so we can check these with you? Thank you!

Awesome App

I recently started using this app that tracks everything in my refrigerator, freezer, and pantry, and I have to say, it has been a game changer for my grocery shopping experience.

**Ease of Use**: The barcode scanning feature is incredibly intuitive. Adding new items to my inventory is quick and effortless—just a quick scan and it’s done. This saves me a lot of time compared to manually entering everything.

**Smart Shopping List**: One of my favorite features is how it automatically adds items to a shopping list when I use the last of something. No more running out of essentials or scrambling to remember what I need. This app takes the stress out of grocery shopping by ensuring I always know what I have at home.

**Convenience**: I’ve found that I no longer struggle to remember what I need while I’m at the store. Since I always have my phone with me, I can check the app at any time, which means no more forgotten.
In conclusion, this app has significantly improved my grocery shopping experience, making it much more efficient and stress-free. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to streamline their kitchen management! 🌟🌟🌟🌟
