Shame
Really easy to follow recipes but while the app is not totally unusable, it’s not very well built and creating lists/Menus is a nightmare. If this was fixed the app would be 5/5 in my eyes
Has potential but needs improvements
This app combines well with the Nosh books, but has some really poor usability issues which shows it wasn’t user tested properly.
When browsing recipes you can’t choose the section (snacks, main meals, desserts). Instead you have to scroll through the whole book or search manually. That’s not how people use books, so they won’t want to use the app that way.
A common requirement would be gathering a collection of favourite recipes to return to.
But there’s no way to add a recipe to favourites - all you can do is add to “menu”.
This breaks the flow of using menu to organise your shopping list.
Once a recipe is in your menu you can’t click to view it. Instead you have to go back and search for the recipe again.
After menus have been added to the shopping list, there’s no indication of which ingredient belongs to which recipe.
There’s also no way to remove a recipe from the shopping list - you’ll have to figure it out and do it manually.
These are just the issues I encountered in the first ten minutes, but it’s enough to put me off using this app. Fix these things and improve the flow, and people will use it more.

Does not work
Downloaded first time stick on page saying not found. Deleted and downloaded again and selected book to download. Stuck on select version with no option to select a version. A poor quality app that is not possible to use.
Usless app
Searched for recipes in the nosh for one book by name and not single one was found. Just asked me to buy other books. Would be zero stars pointless.
Just doesn’t work
Really wanted to use this but I couldn’t download my book which was the key element to getting started so app was waste of time
