Sad ### 1/5 — I lost $30 in a flash of my fingerprint *2022-02-12, version 1.10* As the app opened for the first time a thumbprint banner appeared. I didn’t read it and reflexively pressed my finger and paid for a year subscription. I cannot cancel and I’m frustrated. ### 1/5 — Stupid *2022-02-07, version 1.10* I spent all the time to indicate the food I had available. I doesn’t ask about any meats/proteins. Then it gave me a bunch of recipes with the list of ingredients I’m missing. Worthless! ### 1/5 — Not useful *2022-01-06, version 1.10* It offered me 2 recipes that I had all the ingredients for and then the rest I was miss 3-10 ingredients. That’s not very helpful. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2021-12-04, version 1.10* This app won’t let you do anything until you pay for the service ### 1/5 — Do Not Purchase *2021-12-02, version 1.10* Wasted $30.00 just to have to re-enter my entire ingredients list. They have a lot of common household ingredients missing and wish I could request a refund. ### 1/5 — Can’t use app unless you immediately pay $29.99! *2021-11-07, version 1.10* You can’t use any features of this app until you pay the yearly $29.99 fee. Nothing comes for free and there’s no trial period. There is only 1 “Continue” button you can click on and that immediately takes you to the purchase approval page. ### 1/5 — “Chicken” *2021-10-27, version 1.10* Puts the most basic ingredients in recipes behind an exorbitant paywall, all while still including ads. Chicken isn’t even an option in the base version. Trash app. ### 1/5 — Not free *2021-10-07, version 1.10* Have to pay once you open ### 1/5 — Do not download *2021-08-06, version 1.9* Scam as everyone else said ### 1/5 — Bogus *2021-08-05, version 1.9* Why does it let you download for free just to tell you You have to pay $29.99 to have access ### 1/5 — This app is useless *2021-07-23, version 1.9* This app isn’t what you get when you download it. Once you download it, it won’t open unless you pay the $29.99 annual fee. It’s false advertisement and is completely worthless. Don’t waste your energy downloading it. ### 1/5 — Fake app *2021-07-19, version 1.9* Just paid for the year sub and it’s so worthless. ### 1/5 — SCAMMER *2021-07-01, version 1.9* I selected FREE Trial and was charged 45 dollars! There is no way to contact anyone to get a refund! Give me back my money! ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-06-10, version 1.9* Charged first day of “Free trial”. ### 1/5 — Scam *2021-06-10, version 1.9* Why say free trial if you’re actually charging nearly $50 ### 1/5 — App is not free *2021-06-09, version 1.9* Free to download…upon downloading get page for sign up for free trial then if you click that you go to apple for yearly subscription for $29.99. I read the terms and conditions before clicking sign up for for free trial and there is nothing in there about pricing or how long the free trial is. I cancelled transaction out as it is very deceiving not being straightforward with pricing and free trial information. I couldn’t even click anything to see any information or get a feel for the app like most apps you can get a preview but not this one. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t fall for it *2025-01-10, version 1.10* I opened the app and immediately it popped up with a subscription which my face ID approved before I could react. If you have a phone with face ID DO NOT DOWNLOAD AND OPEN. ### 1/5 — The app is not free!!! False advertising *2023-08-28, version 1.10* The app costs a yearly subscription and is not free. They are falsely advertising!!!!!! ### 1/5 — This is not free at all *2023-07-31, version 1.10* You can do literally nothing unless you subscribe to the yearly plan ### 1/5 — Cancel membership *2023-05-25, version 1.10* I want to cancel the membership I can’t see any sort of settings in this app. Need assistance immediately ### 1/5 — OJO: COMPRA para iniciar *2023-01-14, version 1.10* Nada más iniciarla te exige pago para acceder de unos 30e!! Vigilad con el dedo que con la huella se paga sin querer U.U’ ### 1/5 — Hidden charge *2023-01-08, version 1.10* I was charged 32.01 without being notified. I did not get any notification that I would be charged for this app. The recipes it listed misted said I was missing items anyways so it’s not useful. Don’t recommend. ### 1/5 — Charged for app *2022-12-15, version 1.10* I was charged 29.99 for this app. I never authorized the payment and cannot find a way to dispute it ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-09-22, version 1.10* Scam!! I didn’t want to buy app. Took my money and can’t refund ### 1/5 — No trial. No preview. Must pay $30 to even see the app *2022-06-07, version 1.10* I downloaded this app thinking it was a free app. First thing when you open the app before you can look at anything they have to offer they want you to pay $29.99 for a year subscription. Definitely super misleading. Nothing on the app download even states in app purchases. I am not paying $30 for a subscription without even know what the app looks like. ### 1/5 — Takes money too easily *2022-06-04, version 1.10* The subscription button clearly say didn’t say I’d be subscribing. It said continue so I was under the impression I’d be going into the app and had to sign in but then it said I subscribed for a year and tried to charge me. I don’t have the money so I was declined. I don’t know if it’ll try to charge me again but I can’t afford it to be taken out of my next paycheck ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2023-12-29, version 1.10* Easy to use and really nice recipes! Good idea to search for ingredients that are forgotten in the fridge- helps to avoid wasting food!! A possibility for recipes-suggestions would be nice - e.g. there is no suggestion for using brussel sprouts and as a German I can help out 😂 ### 5/5 — giving *2019-11-06* I was actually introduced with this app from Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu series even before the app had an English version, so now that it has I'm giving it a go and hopefully this app will continue to recommend beginner friendly recipes for me ### 5/5 — I've been using this app for years *2019-11-04* I've been using this app for years to help inspire some tasty meal and desserts to feed my family with. I will admit, I did prefer it when recently uploaded recipes where down as a stream, so that I was able to view all kinds of wonderful dishes without having to do the searching myself. I found it helped broaden my scope of ideas to try new cuisines, ideas, flavours etc... Now it's limited to the cold you follow which can be limiting and very samey samey, if you know what I mean. ### 5/5 — It's like a social media app for homemade recipe *2019-11-04, version 1.2* It's like a social media app for homemade recipes. I've made plenty and even got feedback from the creators of said recipes if I had questions. ### 5/5 — Application has many very delicious recipes. *2019-11-04, version 1.2* Application has many very delicious recipes. I tried and loved it very much. If the application can be used offline, it's great. ### 5/5 — many *2019-10-21, version 1.2* Application provides many recipes. But if it can use video instead of images, will be more attractive ### 5/5 — a *2019-10-21, version 1.2* This app used to work just fine, until day. Now every time I try loading a image, all it's empty. ### 5/5 — recipes *2019-10-12, version 1.2* The app is good for a vegan like me to find recipes, but also serving size and nutrition facts. I can look for recipes using certain ingredients I have laying around. I like it. ### 5/5 — Thanks for creating this apps ,love it and easy to use,make and add more recipes ,thanks *2019-09-26, version 1.2* Thanks for creating this apps ,love it and easy to use,make and add more recipes ,thanks ### 5/5 — 1 definitely *2019-08-01* Definitely worth it. You can Even change the perportion sizes depending on how many you want to serve! It even tells you how many protein and carbs are in it wich is very helpful.
