### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2026-07-27*

It’s a great app with tons of free recipes but some of the most appealing recipes I have seen are stuck behind a paywall I wish that like once a week you could choose 2 or 3 recipes to “unlock” for the week

### 4/5 — Good, but not great

*2025-12-28*

Really like it. Love how you can save recipes just like Pinterest boards. Just don’t like it how some recipes are locked behind pro and how it tells me that I have a free trial of pro and to start it every time I boot the app up.

### 4/5 — great!

*2025-12-05*

good recipes and a lot of them!

### 4/5 — Pro

*2025-11-22*

I don’t really like that the app has pro because us beginner bakers want to bake stuff like that too

### 4/5 — The only problem

*2024-12-03*

Kneed is a great app, although it has a lot of good recipes that have to have the subscription to see them. I just think they should have less of them needing the “kneedy pro”

**Developer response:** Hi Nehemiah,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 😊 We're glad to hear you're enjoying Kneady. We currently offer over 60 free recipes in the app, and our optional Pro subscription unlocks 500+ additional recipes. This subscription helps us keep Kneady sustainable by supporting the ongoing work of bakers, software engineers, and the cost of maintaining and updating over 600 recipes across two mobile apps (plus ingredients for testing!).

Even if Kneady Pro isn’t for you, we hope you’ll continue to enjoy the free recipes we’ve made available. Happy baking! 🙌

### 5/5 — A lot of memories created from bakes with Kneady!

*2024-11-09*

I downloaded Kneady 3/4 years ago and I am so so happy to be finally downloading it again to make new bakes! 

Incredible variety of bakes, bread recipes are fantastic and the app really teaches you with clear instructions and images. Unlocking the full app is 100% worth it! 

Thank you Kneady team!!!

**Developer response:** WOW! We work night and day to make Kneady the best it can be, so knowing it’s been part of your baking journey and memories means the world to us. ❤️ Hearing how much you love the bread recipes and clear instructions is so motivating—thank YOU for your kind words and support! Happy baking, Cameron & Joel! 🥖✨

### 5/5 — Fabulous 😍

*2024-06-18, version 3.0.4*

Amazingly easy and very tasty

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-06-04, version 3.0.4*

There are some seriously good and quick recipes

### 5/5 — New baking partner

*2024-05-04*

I’m brand new to this App and I can’t wait to get my hands full of dough. Oh what fun I’ll have.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your smashing review - we love your enthusiasm for baking! Wishing you all the best with your baking adventures ❤️

### 5/5 — Nice

*2024-04-26, version 3.0.2*

Very nice app!

### 4/5 — Needs more recipe checking.

*2024-04-21*

I’ve been trying out some of their free recipes. Overall tasty and straightforward to make, but they need more proofreading. The last two recipes I tried (rye baguettes and Danish slices) each had mismatches between ingredients listed and mentioned in instructions. A couple of others couldn’t be used in baking mode because the images overflowed the screen and couldn’t be read. So the app needs some work but the recipes themselves are nice!

**Developer response:** Hey! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review 😊. We regularly review & tweak our recipes to make sure inconsistencies don't occur, but sometimes things slip through (especially with supporting both metric & imperial!).

Could you please email us at team@kneady.io with the mismatches you're seeing on these two recipes? We've believe we've just fixed them, but wish to confirm.

Thanks in advance 🙏
- Beth

### 5/5 — Way better than M&S!

*2024-03-31*

These turned out beautifully! Nice and doughy as I like, however I would suggest to add the milk in slowly as you might not need it all. 
Lovely flavours! A must keep for sure!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your lovely review, Singhsong79! We're glad our Zesty Hot Cross Bun recipe surpassed your expectations! 🎉

### 5/5 — Worth the money

*2024-02-12*

Love the site. Worth Every penny

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! We spend many hours creating and refining our recipes, and reading comments like this makes it all worth it ❤️

### 5/5 — Neaty: Baking Bliss Unleashed!

*2024-01-05*

Neaty, the ultimate bread-baking app, has redefined my kitchen adventures. With top-notch, award-winning recipes from pros, it's a game-changer for bakers of all levels. The user-friendly interface and easy recipe saving make it a joy to use. Neaty isn't just an app; it's a baking community that elevates the art of bread-making.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the smashing review, John! We're thrilled you've found Kneady a joy to use. Keep up the baking! 🧑‍🍳

### 5/5 — Delicious recipes and good instructions

*2023-12-16*

I'm just learning to bake, but I have been able to make some delicious breads using kneady recipes.

The recipes are well curated (aka delicious) and easy to follow. Highly recommended!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that Kneady has played a fundamental part in your bread baking journey so far. Best, Lily 😍 🙏

### 4/5 — Network error

*2023-11-29*

Great app but since last week all I get is “Network Error, please ensure you have an active internet connection and try again” on both iPad and iPhone.

**Developer response:** Hi DAMorrison, sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with the app. Please email our support team at team@kneady.io and we'll help solve this for you as soon as possible. Best, Lily.

Update: I'm glad we were able to resolve your Network Error issue offline! 😊

### 5/5 — Print from iPhone…

*2023-11-28*

Can we please get the ability to print for pro accounts??

**Developer response:** Hey Eobie, please message us at team@kneady.io and we'll happily give some info on this 😊
All the best,
Lily

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Disgruntled

*2025-12-11, version 5.1.2*

I wish it had said up front it was £25. You waste your time downloading only to remove the app when you get the bill.

### 1/5 — No ability to save custom recipes

*2023-12-19*

I didn’t explore the app after discovering you can’t save custom recipes. In my opinion this is a critical basic feature that is missing.

**Developer response:** Hey SystemOfSilence! Custom recipe uploads are coming in Q1 2024, watch this space! We'll update this review once the feature is live. 👍

### 1/5 — Unimpressed

*2022-10-10, version 2.5.9*

A large amount of the recipes you need to pay too see and they charge an outrageous fee I would not recommend you can get better recipes on line for free

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thanks for your review. We have over 60 free recipes in our app, and our optional Pro subscription - unlocking 300 additional recipes - is our way of ensuring Kneady has a sustainable future. As you might imagine, maintaining and updating over 350 recipes and 2 mobile apps is no mean feat! With 300 Pro recipes, we've had good feedback in terms of value for our subscribers, and whether or not you decide to give it a try, we hope you'll continue to enjoy baking with us 🙌

### 1/5 — Too much update

*2021-05-03, version 2.4.1*

Was good until this app stared making me update the app 3 times a weeek. Useless. Uninstalling.

### 1/5 — Limited and easier to Google

*2021-02-27, version 2.3.2*

Waste of time. 
Can’t believe they offer a subscription with a handful of recipes. 
And agree with other comments- recipes are free, next day you can’t access because they decide it’s only for those who pay a subscription.
Stick to all the free recipes online and just read the reviews
So disappointing

### 1/5 — Was great whilst it lasted.

*2021-02-11, version 2.3.0*

They’ve locked most of their free recipes and added to them to their “pro” section. Not worth it, especially knowing it was free all along.

### 2/5 — Better off googling real recipes

*2020-10-25, version 2.2.3*

Between the images and the actual content, you can find easier and better recipes through Google..

### 3/5 — Absolutely Love This App

*2024-11-02*

Whenever I'm looking for something to bake I always head to this App. Definitely a go to. There's always a good variety of comfort items as well as some that I've never heard of that sound absolutely fantastic to make for family and friends. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and for making Kneady your go-to baking app! ❤️ It means so much to hear how much you’re enjoying the variety of recipes. We’ve got some big Christmas celebrations planned, with both classic favorites and exciting new recipes—hope you love them as much as we do! 🎄✨

### 3/5 — Great looking app

*2023-06-03*

It’s a good looking app, Recipes look good too. I was expecting a very large amount of recipes n techniques to be free on the app only to find out one has to pay money ($$$) for the locked up recipes even if it’s inexspensive for the year.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thanks for your review. We have over 60 free recipes in our app, and our optional Pro subscription - unlocking 300 additional recipes - is our way of ensuring Kneady has a sustainable future. Maintaining and updating over 350 recipes and 2 mobile apps is a fairly colossal effort (software engineers, bakers, even ingredients!).

Even if you decide Kneady Pro isn't for you, we hope you'll be able to enjoy our free recipes! 🙌

### 3/5 — Grams?

*2021-10-23*

The recipes might be wonderful, but in Arizona we use cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons (and we weigh in ounces, pounds).

Oh well.

**Developer response:** Hi GTwitty, 

Great news - all 500+ recipes (and all future recipes) on Kneady now support imperial/US measures! 🙌

Jump into the app to get started, tap on a recipe and toggle the measurement type to imperial. The app will then save your preference for future bakes.

All the best,

Lily

### 5/5 — Sensational

*2026-03-27*

Light, fluffy and full of flavour. I used mixed fruit as that’s all I had (and left out the orange zest) The best recipe for hot cross buns that I’ve ever tried.

### 5/5 — Absolutely great

*2026-03-15*

I love this app.

### 5/5 — Ideal for beginners

*2026-01-24*

I started using this Ap about 4 years ago and it is my go to recipe book when I am looking for something different to bake.
I especially like the baking mode as it ensures that you don’t forget to add all of the ingredients (I have been known to do that in the past😁)
It doesn’t matter if you are new to baking or an old hand there will be something there for you. 
Although you need to subscribe to use all of the recipes the cost is minimal and worth it

### 5/5 — Kneady : Bread & Baking Recipes

*2025-12-18*

Explore 600 + Top-Rated Recipes

### 5/5 — Foolproof

*2025-10-06*

I have managed to mess up nearly everything I’ve baked in the past. Using this app though, everything has come out nearly perfect! I like how you can see the ingredients next to each step of the recipe. I’ve found the step-by-step pictures helpful and weights are given for ingredients.

**Developer response:** That’s what we love to hear! 🙌 We designed Kneady so everyone can bake with confidence — sounds like you’re absolutely nailing it. Keep those perfect bakes coming! 🥐✨

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-07-30*

I got this app so I could make cookies and treats for my family I just love it it’s a great app for baking

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! 🍪 We’re so happy you’re enjoying baking with Kneady and making treats for your family. Wishing you lots more fun (and delicious!) bakes ahead!

### 5/5 — Could be You Need

*2025-03-15*

Great app well laid out and easy to follow

**Developer response:** Thanks so much! We’re so glad you’re enjoying Kneady — and love the title of your review 😄 Here’s to many more delicious bakes ahead! 🥖✨

### 5/5 — Love baking these

*2025-03-08*

One of my favorite although I bake sometimes three times a week with revoked from Kneadyyb

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! We spend many hours creating and refining our recipes, and reading comments like this makes it all worth it ❤️

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-02-24*

Thank you so much to the developers and content creators. I love cooking for my family. I only have the free version but the recipes are amazing. You also get the weight measurements to imperial and metric. Give this app a try if you love cooking. The padlock recipes are open if you subscribe. Due to my budget I’m not yet posh enough. So until then I will just look at the pictures and lick my screen until then. 😋 Enjoy!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your lovely review! It means the world to hear that you’re enjoying the recipes and cooking for your family with Kneady. We’re so glad the app’s measurement options and free recipes are helpful — and your “lick the screen” comment gave us a big smile! 😊 We totally understand budgets, and we’re just grateful to have you cooking along with us in any capacity. Happy baking! 💛

### 5/5 — Excellent!!!

*2024-11-09*

Love this app, so many amazing recipes, lots of fabulous recipes, great instructions and very easy to follow! Have already made some firm favourites...... lots of fabulous new recipes makes this app so appealing to everyone Irrespective of their baking abilities ♥️😋😋
