User reviews

Excellent, just missing some pieces

Great UI, family sharing the purchase isn’t working for me. Unsure of how to get support.

Shopping list UI needs a little love, but overall the app and the purchase are definitely worth it!

Okay

Decent app but I find it a bit crazy that the dev decided to lock the ability to add new recipes behind a paywall. The app is built on top of FOSS after-all..

Almost perfect

Edit: the Shopping list feature seems a but buggy on my device. When the list is empty and I add the ingredients for a recipe it does not sync to the reminders app. Only when I manually create an item.

Also if I check an item in the Shopping list feature in the app, it gets checked. When I now add the item to the list again, it does not create a new entry, but add the amount nesseccary to the checked item? In the Mealie Webinterface it works though.

Additionally my iPhone 16 Pro the Header of “recipes” is barely there (“Re…”) because of the other menus in the same height. Not that dramatic though.

Response from developer

Thanks for the detail and suggestions, I’ll look to improve some of this in the next release!

Paywalled previously free features

Good app — but not updated recently and then took free features away behind a pay wall. Bought them but you’ll get one star for the effort of the bait and switch

Response from developer

The paid features of this app were never free, except in the initial TestFlight period when I was actively developing it and seeking input. Also, I regularly plan feature updates and am actively working on another update of the app now.

The best!

This is the best mealie app I have tried. It is missing a feature or two but the developer was very responsive to feedback. Looking forward to the continued development

Response from developer

Thanks for the support!
