What a waste of time. ### 1/5 — Don’t do it *2025-02-01, version 1.4.7* There’s a reason they do not offer a trial before making purchase. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2025-01-11, version 1.4.7* Not much to the app and paid $40. Was expecting more. ### 3/5 — Buggy but probably best med diet app I’ve used *2025-01-01* Good overall, nice interface and the recipe directions are great. Replace feature doesn’t find other specific recipes through search for filter. Shopping cart feature is buggy and deletes items you haven’t selected. ### 1/5 — Poor - not fee *2024-12-25* It’s not that there are in App purchases you can’t access anything without paying - very disappointing ### 1/5 — Cancel *2024-11-04, version 1.4.7* How do I cancel my subscription? I’m locked out from app- states my email is cancelled yet I’m still getting charged. ### 1/5 — Displeased with initials meals *2024-10-27, version 1.4.7* Ingredients that I chose not to include are in meal selections. ### 1/5 — Lots of outdated and scientifically incorrect info *2024-06-16* The app is alright, I guess. I’m glad I only paid for a month. Reviewing the information revealed scientifically unsound information. Such as unplugging computers to avoid radiation? The radiation produced by computers is not harmful. Additionally, the distance needed to reduce cell phone radiation or RFR is 3 feet, another scientific fact left out. The rest of the app is okay. I joined to find good recipes and easily make a shopping list. I found the list of foods to avoid lackluster. For example, if you’re allergic to certain foods you cannot put that in. Common allergens are not included in the list of foods to avoid. And if you clicked a food to avoid it still adds it to your generated meal plan, just puts an ! by the meal… I was also hoping to make my own meal plan from a list of recipes. Which you can do but it isn’t intuitive. You have to select each meal for each day and then select replace. Kind of a PITA. I won’t be resubscribing as this doesn’t save me any time/effort. ### 1/5 — Not free *2024-04-27* Nothing accessible unless you pay for it. ### 2/5 — An overpriced recipe book *2024-04-06* I’m a bit disappointed I was looking for some thing that would help me meet my macro goals for the week and make recipes for the Mediterranean diet. But all this does is give you four recipes a day listed out with the ingredients. There is no macro nutrient information and there’s no way to customize the recipes to match your macro nutrient goals so basically you could just go to any website that has Mediterranean recipes pick four and it’s the same thing only This puts it in a little box for you and cost $12 a month, this is a lot of money to pay for recipes that you can get for free online just so that they can put in a box for you. I don’t see any evidence that they’ve picked certain meals to fit my caloric needs although I presume that is why they asked me my weight goals. I don’t see anything to let you track your weight goals. This doesn’t have any tools really it’s basically like an overpriced recipe book. ### 1/5 — Irritated *2024-01-23, version 1.4.6* NOT FREE!! You give your info through a series of questions about goals etc, and then they ask you to pick a plan $/month! ### 2/5 — Canceled Same Day and was Still Charged *2024-01-19, version 1.4.6* I logged into the app for the free trial, saw that it was quite what I needed, and went into my Apple account to cancel. Same day I downloaded the app. And I just got charged for a year subscription! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nobodies home. *2026-03-16, version 1.4.24* Nobody answers messages and I can’t open this app in my wife’s phone to share the grocery list. $65 for a year gone. ### 1/5 — Bad program *2026-02-28, version 1.4.24* Never could get this app to work right. It would take 15 minutes to download the recipes. Cancelled. Dusted App ### 1/5 — App problems *2026-01-01, version 1.4.21* I couldn’t get past the height question on my phone; there’d count use the app. What’s the point? I tried multiple times, rebooted, etc etc. ### 1/5 — Not free app *2025-08-18, version 1.4.14* Thought this was a free app with in app purchases but it is not free at all!! Wants you to set up an account and then it says “choose your plan”!! Nothing was free at that point ### 1/5 — Not for me *2025-06-28, version 1.4.14* I'm not sure what I really expected, but the app just tells you something different to eat at every meal and lists all the ingredients. I am not going to spend thousands at the grocery store on all these random meals. I should have looked into the app more before paying for the year subscription. Live and learn. Don't waste your money. ### 1/5 — Expensive *2025-06-13, version 1.4.13* Deleted ### 1/5 — No place to cancel free trial *2025-04-24, version 1.4.13* There isn’t a place to cancel or change payment methods. ### 1/5 — Not good *2025-04-09, version 1.4.12* This app is terrible. Paid for it because I thought I could log my own meals and can’t. I will be cancelling asap. ### 1/5 — Don’t get. *2025-02-23, version 1.4.9* The app kicked me out after 3 months and I am out $40. Says my email was deleted. Emails for help go answered. Buyer beware. ### 1/5 — App is not good after 6 months *2025-02-21* After 6 months of working fairly well and recipes are great, for the most part other then it was false advertisement on tracking weight and progress which it does NOT, the app kicked me out. Says my account may have been “deleted” I’ve reached out to the developers and have had no response. I’ve paid for a year. Complete rip off if you ask me. May be an AG thing to do…. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy and Practical *2025-12-01* I’ve been using this Mediterranean diet app for a few months now, and what I really like is how simple it keeps things. The meal plans are clear and don’t require any fancy ingredients or complicated cooking skills, which is perfect for my hectic schedule. It’s nice to have everything laid out without having to spend hours searching for recipes or making endless grocery lists. The grocery list feature saves me a ton of time at the store because I know exactly what to buy for the week. I just open the app and go - no second-guessing or overbuying. The portion adjustments are a small detail, but honestly, super helpful when I’m just cooking for myself or occasionally for two. It makes meal prep way less wasteful. I haven’t used every single feature, like the weight tracker, but for me, the biggest win is how this app makes healthy eating feel manageable. I’ve tried other diet apps that felt way too complicated or restrictive. This one doesn’t feel like a “diet” - it’s just better eating, with less hassle. It’s also helped me be more consistent. I’m not skipping meals or reaching for junk food as much anymore because I already have something planned that’s quick and decent. I didn’t expect that part to be so impactful, but it really does make a difference day to day. If you're looking for something that fits into a real, busy lifestyle - not some perfect Instagram version of healthy eating - this app is worth trying. ### 5/5 — Simple way to eat better *2025-08-10* I’ve tried a bunch of healthy eating apps, but this Mediterranean one has been the easiest for me to stick with. It’s not overwhelming or filled with too many features I won’t use. Everything is just clear and straightforward. I open it each day, check the meal plan, and that’s it. No decision fatigue, no trying to figure out what’s for dinner - it’s already planned out for me. What I really appreciate is how normal the recipes are. They’re not overly complicated or full of hard-to-find ingredients. Most of the meals are made with stuff I already have in the kitchen. And honestly, I’ve discovered a few new favorites along the way. I wouldn’t say I’m a great cook, but this app makes it feel easy. The grocery list helps, too. I don’t use it all the time, but when I do, it saves me from forgetting half the ingredients at the store. The meal plan is flexible enough that I don’t feel bad if I skip a day or swap things around. I don’t track every single thing religiously, but I’ve noticed I feel better and more energized since I started following the meals. It’s helped me eat more balanced without thinking about it too much. It’s also just taken a bit of pressure off - I used to get stuck in food ruts or stress over what to cook, and now I don’t have to. I don’t feel like I’m on a diet, just eating better without overthinking it. That’s been the biggest win for me. ### 5/5 — Many easy recipes! *2025-07-10* Thanks for the many delicious and easy to cook recipes you provide. This has changed my daily routine completely to having healthy meals and short cooking breaks. I’m running a competition with friends for creating healthy habits and this app has helped so much with that. Love it! Thanks for the great meal plans and recipes to support my diet goal 🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — Didn’t expect much… but it really helped me change *2025-07-03* I’m not a fan of complicated diets or spending hours in the kitchen so when I found this Mediterranean diet app, what really sold me was how simple and fast it is especially after I upgraded to Premium. The Premium plan gives me easy meal plans every day that don’t take forever to cook. The recipes are straightforward, no fancy ingredients or long prep times. Plus, the step-by-step instructions make it super clear what to do next. I don’t have to guess or waste time watching videos or reading complicated stuff. Another thing that saves me so much time is the grocery list. It’s automatically made for the week based on the meals, and I can check off what I already have at home. I just take the list to the store and boom, done. No more last-minute trips or forgetting things. It really takes the stress out of meal prep. I also like that I can exclude ingredients I don’t like or can’t eat, so the app only shows me meals I actually want to make. That cuts down on scrolling and decision fatigue which is huge when you’re busy. Honestly, the whole thing fits perfectly into my hectic life. I spend less time stressing about what to eat and more time just eating healthy food that tastes good and makes me feel good. If you want something that makes healthy eating quick and easy without all the hassle or complicated stuff, this Premium plan is definitely worth it! ### 5/5 — Premium plan was totally worth it *2025-06-12, version 1.4.13* I started this app at the beginning of the year just to try something new and healthier. After using the free version for about a week, I decided to go ahead and subscribe to the Premium plan and I honestly haven’t looked back. The Premium version makes everything smoother. You get daily meal plans laid out for you, and every single recipe comes with step-by-step instructions. It’s super clear and easy to follow, even if you're not great in the kitchen. I don’t have to second-guess anything, and most meals are quick enough to make on a busy day. One of the best features for me is the grocery list. The app automatically builds it based on the meals in your plan. It’s organized, you can tick off what you already have, and it saves me from writing things down or forgetting items at the store. Really makes the whole week’s planning easier. Another thing I really appreciate is that you can exclude ingredients. I don’t eat shellfish, and I don’t like onions either. Once I set that in my preferences, the app stopped showing me any recipes with those ingredients. That’s such a helpful touch - it saves time and avoids frustration. The meals are delicious, and I feel good about what I’m eating. It’s all real food resh veggies, fish, healthy fats and it doesn’t feel like a diet. Just balanced, smart eating that fits into everyday life. I’ve also been using the tracking features logging meals and keeping an eye on my weight. It helps me stay accountable. I’m not trying to lose weight fast, but I’ve already noticed a few pounds come off and I feel lighter, more energized, and even my mood is better. Premium just makes it all click. The guidance, flexibility, and support are all there. It’s not overwhelming, and I never feel like I’m on my own. If you’re thinking about upgrading, I’d say it’s more than worth it especially if you want to make real changes that stick. This app has honestly made healthy eating feel easy, and for me, that’s something new. ### 5/5 — Finally found a plan I can follow *2025-05-21* I started using this Mediterranean diet app since Jan when I made a decision to finally take care of my health for real this time Been tryin diets on and off for years but nothing ever stuck either too hard to follow or just boring or not enough guidance but this one feels different in a good way Every day I get a meal plan already made with breakfast lunch dinner and even snacks and I don’t have to think what to cook or eat it’s all there and it tells me the calories protein carbs and all that so I actually know what I’m eating which helps a lot The food is actually tasty too not that bland diet food I used to hate it’s like real Mediterranean meals with veggies fish olive oil and stuff I actually enjoy and it’s simple enough to cook even when I’m tired after work If there’s something I don’t feel like eating that day I just swap it for another one from the catalog and it gives me a new idea right away I love that part cause I like some variety and don’t wanna eat the same stuff every week I also started tracking my meals and my weight inside the app and that really keeps me on track I’ve already lost a few pounds since January and more than that I feel better more energy better digestion and even sleepin better It doesn’t feel like I’m dieting it just feels like I’m finally eating how I should have been all along clean simple healthy and balanced The app makes it easy to stay on it no pressure no guilt if you miss a day it just helps you get back in the flow If you’re someone like me who wanted to eat better and live healthier without a bunch of rules and stress this app is def worth a try New year really did mean a new life for me and this app has been a big part of that ### 5/5 — Gonna try it *2024-10-15, version 1.4.7* Not bad ### 5/5 — Well Organized *2024-01-31, version 1.4.6* New to the web site, but very organized to read, locate and prepare the meals Thank you ### 5/5 — Easy to follow.
