Missing ability to Scale Recipe
Beautifully designed app and quite functional. But when it comes to cooking, we need a feature to scale the original recipe to be 1/2 or 2 times depending on how many guests we have! Currently I have to manually multiply myself but would love for the app to have this ability.

Easy and intuitive app for iPhone/iPad!
Tired of Pinterest, I wanted an app that worked seamlessly with Apple’s ecosystem. I also wanted an app that was visually appealing. Mela checked all the boxes for me. I bookmarked all my fave cooking websites in their browser. I mainly add recipes I find in Safari, which is extremely easy. You can create many tags/categories. Meal planning is a breeze with your plan added to your Calendar. Ingredients needed for recipes can be added to the Reminders app. I haven’t tried the scanning recipe part to import, but, that feature does exist. I saw reviews want a social media integration and pantry feature, but, I don’t feel like I miss that on my end. All in all. Very happy with this app. I would love if the developers would make an option for Mac since I occasionally search on my laptop. Not a deal breaker for me. But it would be a nice added bonus.

Good app overall, but Reminders integration appears broken
I like the app and the recipe management itself seems well designed, but there appears to be a current bug with the groceries/Apple Reminders integration.
I’ve purchased the full version, granted Mela access to Reminders, and confirmed my Apple grocery list is set up correctly. However, Mela only shows its own “Mela” list as an option under Grocery settings, and adding ingredients from recipes does not actually create anything in Apple Reminders.
I’m leaving this review mainly as a warning for anyone considering the app specifically because of the advertised Reminders integration. Hopefully it’s just a compatibility bug that gets fixed, because the rest of the app looks promising

Great, with 2 obvious limitations
Honestly it’s a great app and I love how it’s helping me build a coherent, accessible list of recipes. In a lot of ways it’s ideal. But you can’t copy any text without going in to edit an entry (e.g. to copy and share something) and, most frustratingly, you can’t add folders. Allowing that extra layer of hierarchy would be perfect. I’ve got hundreds of recipes now, covering food and drinks, and that list of categories under ‘all’ is getting difficult to manage.
