### 3/5 — Une excellente idée d’application

*2026-01-03*

Bonjour! J’aurais aimer pouvoir utiliser correctement l’application parce qu’elle a tout les outils que je recherche, malheureusement, je n’ai pas l’iPhone le plus récent et l’application ne veux pas télécharger et avec le prix des téléphone je vais faire durer le mien autant que je le peux haha! J’ai essayé de l’utiliser sur mon Mac, mais il y avait des choses qui ne fonctionnaient pas et j’ai réaliser que ce n’est pas une application formater pour les macs ou les iPad. Donc ma suggestion serait de les rendre disponible pour tous les appareils si possible. Ce serait génial pour plusieurss raison,. Ce serait plus facile de rentrer des recettes à la main partir d’un clavier que d’un téléphone, ou de naviguer le web pour trouver de nouvelles recettes à ajouter, … J’espère que ce sera fait un jour :) Bonne année!

### 5/5 — Comprehensive meal planning program

*2025-12-30*

Program contains all of the elements of a complete recipe data base, meal planner, inventory of groceries, and weekly meal planner.  Easy to upload recipes from internet.  Well organized comprehensive program, but to utilize it fully one must be diligent in keeping the groceries updated.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review and kind words! 🙏
I’m really glad to hear you find the app complete and well organized. My goal is to provide you with an all-in-one tool to plan meals, manage recipes, track your shopping list, and stay on top of your inventory with ease.

Feel free to share any additional feedback or ideas — they help me keep improving the app for you. Thanks again for being part of this journey! 💚

– François

### 3/5 — Peut être mieux

*2025-07-03*

Application bien penser, mais le design ne donne pas du tout envie de l’utiliser

**Developer response:** Bonjour miimy-14,
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Je travaille justement sur une refonte du design pour le rendre plus agréable et intuitif, ainsi que sur des versions iPad et Mac. N’hésitez pas à partager ce qui vous plairait, vos idées me sont très précieuses. 🍽️

### 5/5 — Gute App

*2025-04-04*

Man braucht etwas Zeit, aber sobald man sich mit den Funktionen vertraut gemacht hat, macht die Nutzung richtig Spass. Ich habe erste Rezepte erfasst, einen Teil des Vorrats ebenso. Auch eine erste Einkaufsliste ist abgearbeitet. Die Listen der Läden, Lagerplätze und Kategorien waren ebenfalls schnell angelegt. Lediglich die Erkennung der EAN war holprig, dafür funktioniert die Erfassung per Bild umso besser.
Wenn man jetzt noch die Einheiten und die Preise erfassen könnte und gleichzeitig noch ein Haushaltsbuch integrieren, wäre diese App eine unersetzliche Hilfe. Bis dahin erfasse ich meine Einkäufe leider doppelt.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr ausführliches Feedback! 🙏 Es freut mich sehr, dass Ihnen die App gefällt und Sie nach einer kurzen Eingewöhnung Freude an der Nutzung haben. Ihre Anmerkungen sind für mich sehr hilfreich, und ich werde sie für zukünftige Weiterentwicklungen im Blick behalten. Vielen Dank nochmals für Ihre Unterstützung und Ihr Vertrauen!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
François Thibault

### 5/5 — Enfin

*2025-02-16*

Une application qui met mes photos de recettes en ordre Très bien fait merci au concepteur

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup pour votre avis ! 😊 Je suis ravi que l’application vous aide à organiser vos photos de recettes. Si vous avez des suggestions pour l’améliorer encore plus, n’hésitez pas à me les partager. Bonne cuisine ! 🍽️

### 5/5 — Gorgeous app!

*2024-12-15*

This app seems very comprehensive in its features, it’s well organized, and it’s beautiful to look at. I only wish that it was optimized for iPad landscape, as that is what I use 90% of the time. But that’s a minor quibble! Thank you for this lovely app.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your positive review! 🥳 I’m really happy to hear that you’re enjoying the app’s comprehensive features, organization, and design.
I’ve noted your request for better support for landscape mode on iPad 📲. It’s a great suggestion, and I’ll definitely keep it in mind for future updates. Feel free to share any other feedback or ideas — they help me continue to improve the app for you. Thanks again for being part of this journey! 🙏

### 1/5 — Annoying lack of transparency

*2023-11-14*

No mention of price in the app description ($5-$10 per month for those wondering) and an insanely long setup time when you start it for the first time. 

There are a few pages of descriptions to get through first, then it starts a long setup progress bar for some reason. Once the progress bar is finished you're taken to a plan signup page and are forced to sign up for the free trial if you even want to attempt to get a sense of whether the app is for you or not.

The whole thing feels shady enough that I'm taking time out of my day to warn people against it.
