### 4/5 — Pretty Good!

*2020-04-22, version 4.5.1*

I love the inventory abilities with this app and the build in recipes and tips! I do wish there was an option to add products to a “wishlist”, the ability to put in your own recipes, and add in your own notes. I have scraps of papers or pictures of recipes and notes everywhere and I’d love to mainstream them into one location-like this app!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback! We will include your suggestions as we consider possible new features going forward!

### 4/5 — Inventory

*2019-12-14, version 4.5.0*

I have been trying to keep inventory in a spreadsheet— emphasis on trying ! I love this app but can’t give it a 5 because it needs to update its inventory and/or make there an option to add products to inventory (like limited editions) Overall this is a great app! I would also like to print my inventory.

### 4/5 — Good App

*2019-11-09, version 4.4.0*

I love having the ‘my inventory’ section to quickly look at the oils and supplements I have on hand. I also like that it has all the other YL products listed out by categories. I wish there was a little bit more information on best suggested places to apply the different oils (back of neck, wrists, etc.).

### 5/5 — I joined Oily App and use all the time

*2018-11-26, version 3.0.0*

It helps with organizing- descriptions of oils and using them. Where the came from. 
When there out of stock when there coming back !!!! The list goes on and on! 
It just keeps getting better! 
Love it!

### 5/5 — Love the Oily App

*2018-11-24, version 3.0.0*

I have learned so much from this app. Great source for those of us just starting out and for even those who have been living the oily life awhile. If you do not have this official Young Living App you should invest in it! Well worth your time and money.

### 4/5 — Great App for new and seasoned oilers!

*2018-11-24, version 3.0.0*

My favorite part is the stock notifications. It has been very helpful in reminding me of my oil uses. I would like to see more detailed instructions for use similar to what’s in the product info page on the YL website at some point.

### 5/5 — Most useful app I have

*2018-11-24, version 3.0.0*

Since I love Young Living essential oils, but definitely am not an expert to know what they all do, I use this as a reference and use the info to let my friends know how to use the oils I might gift them.  Oh and not to mention a great way to keep my inventory!! 💚

### 5/5 — Love!

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

Absolutely love this app for Young Living users. It’s nice to have a wealth of information just a couple of keystrokes away when you’re not by your computer or you don’t have your pocket reference handy! App separates oils into blends and singles and also has oil infused products, notifies you of stocked/OOS items, and also your own inventory.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We super appreciate you and are so happy you love the app. Check out our Facebook page for exciting news on upcoming updates!!

### 5/5 — Best YL oil App

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

This is an amazing app. It’s well organized, easy to use, you can search oils based on use.. blends or single oils. It’s affordable pricing!! I also love that It notifies you when products go in and out of stock, has information about all the YL products at your fingertips, plus ideas on how to use each product, monthly giveaways, even a place to keep personal inventory. Bonus there’s also business resources in this app. It’s great for all Young Living users.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We super appreciate you and are so happy you love the app. Check out our Facebook page for exciting news on upcoming updates!!

### 5/5 — Thankful

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

I would recommend this app to anyone, weather your just starting out or have been using oils for a while. This app has helped me answer many questions and the great thing is it’s Young Living compliant. It has so many features, one I like is keeping track of what oils you have.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We super appreciate you and are so happy you love the app. Check out our Facebook page for exciting news on upcoming updates!!

### 5/5 — Well worth it

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

It’s not often that I will pay for an app. To be honest, this is the only app I have ever paid for. It does not disappoint! I love that you can see current young living stock. You can also list items you have so you never run out of your favorites. It’s also easy to use.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We super appreciate you and are so happy you love the app. Check out our Facebook page for exciting news on upcoming updates!!

### 5/5 — Enjoy this app

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

I enjoy being able to have this at my fingertips. I also like being able to put in my personal stock!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Resource!

*2018-11-23, version 3.0.0*

My favorite option is being able to keep an inventory of my YL oils and supplements. Since I use my products throughout my home and at work, keeping my inventory within the app is a nice go to when looking ing to place an order.

### 1/5 — You had me until I had to restore my iPhone

*2020-04-18, version 4.5.1*

I love, love, love this app as it keeps me from ordering triplicates. I can live with duplicates, because you always run out!

I recently had my iPhone restored and the “Apple” dude said we did not want to restore from a backup as it would bring the trash back that was causing latency and battery issues. No problem, let’s wipe it and restore the data from the cloud... I did not realize that OilyApp was not backed up to iCloud.

OilyApp is my only app that I use.
It would be nice to have consistent inventory among all my iOS devices. 
I AM SEEING AND A MISS ON THIS!

I just spent two hours re-inventorying my collection!

Three wishes:
Need the ability to inventory my dogs oils 
Need to have my inventory cloud based
- eliminating the issue today
- enables my iPad to reflect current data
- would love to distinguish 5, 10, 15 ml bottles

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about the inventory trouble when restoring your device. Allowing the inventory to be restored or accessed across devices is an important feature that our team is actively looking at. We appreciate your taking the time to share ideas on how to improve the app. Please don’t hesitate to contact us via email or FB message if we can help with anything else.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-08-28, version 4.3.0*

Very disappointed as I asked if this would have ways to use oils for kids and was told yes. Well it does not I would have to buy the  + version of this. Big waste of money for me
Like I said before I wanted different ways to use oils on kids not the kid scent line information. Still a waste of money I will not change my review to give you 5 stars if I don’t feel that’s it’s worth the money

### 1/5 — Basically the YL Website

*2019-03-04, version 3.0.3*

Update: still nothing new. No videos even load. Many of the product images are super dated. I’m surprised by this app. 
Nothing links through. The videos and podcasts are too long so they never load. Who has time to listen to a 40-60 minute podcast? I paid for a slightly different version of view of the YL website. Not too impressed. Maybe it will get better. I like the potential for seeing different country markets but currently they are incorrect in some cases.

**Developer response:** Update: The issue with the videos has been fixed and the podcasts now open via your choice of podcast app on your phone. Images have been updated, and lots of new great features as well!

Hey Jen! Thank you for your feedback. The next version of the app will have all the product images updated, and we are looking into a way to split some of the videos and podcasts into shorter clips, updated, etc. so that we can continue to optimize user experience. Our app does offer a lot of functionality besides just product information, though that is valuable too! We have a lot of great stuff coming between now and convention, so we hope you will get all the updates coming between now and then and enjoy them!

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2018-03-08, version 2.0.5*

Absolutely terrible! Big waste of $5.99. Upon loading the app, I clicked the Facebook icon and it only took me to the page for the app. Tried to add my oils I currently own...it wouldn’t open. All of a sudden I’m getting notification after notification, back-to-back telling me what was in stock & out of stock for Young Living...no way to turn them off because there’s no settings option in the app. I’m very irritated that I wasted money on this and can’t get it back. DO NOT BUY THIS APP. Try EO Bar instead, very happy with that app purchase.

**Developer response:** We are so sorry you had a negative experience with the app! We actually do have a settings feature in the app that will allow you to turn notifications on and off (click the bottom right icon from the home page, the one with three bars, and then the next page has a settings option), and I just tried the Facebook icon and it went right to our Facebook page! We have thousands of happy users and I'm so sorry you've not had a good experience. If you would send us a FB message, we will do all we can to make sure that your experience is excellent. We would love to earn 5 stars from you. If you don't have the newest update, make sure to get that as it may clear up any issues you were having!

### 2/5 — Stock alert no longer works

*2020-10-09, version 4.5.1*

Not sure what happened, but even though I have the option to receive the in & out of stock notifications, it no longer works. I’ve made sure it’s on in all settings, however it no longer notifies me. Unfortunate since I had to purchase the app & only did so for this option.

### 3/5 — Missing features

*2020-02-18, version 4.5.1*

I wish I could indicate how much of an oil I have. (Full, half, 1/4, empty, etc) 

I also wish I could indicate where I am keeping it. (Kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, office, etc.) 

Also, how fun would it be to be able to search recipes based on our inventory! (Find a recipe that uses what we have on hand, helping to find uses for lesser-used oils)

 It also would be nice to see all the oils in one list, as well as separate singles and blends. (Going back-and forth between single and blend can be annoying.)

Missing a few things like Endoflex, Progessence Plus, Ocotea. 

Overall, it has potential but still has room for improvements. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Stock Notification Page Down

*2019-03-28, version 3.0.4*

I continue to get stock notifications however if I navigate to the stock notification page in the app it has been down for weeks. Everything else about the app is awesome!

### 3/5 — Loving the app ! But!

*2018-08-05, version 2.0.6*

I love the app very much but was hoping it would have a section with like if I have a issue it would give suggestions 🤔 and I looked on how to add like my pets oils and beauty products and cleaning items ect and can’t figure out how to add them to my inventory??? 
Great app but was a little disappointed.
If free wouldn’t complain but I paid 5.99$
For a place to put my inventory...which was a little tricky and can’t log them all.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for being a part of the OilyApp team! Make sure to get the newest version, as there is even more awesome stuff in there!

We are working on the next update (gonna be amazing, check out our Facebook page for more details) and we will be (in the next couple of updates) providing the ability for you to add everything to inventory!

We would love to earn 5 stars from you, so shoot us a Facebook message and we will work with you to get the items it the app that you would love!

We appreciate you so so much!

### 3/5 — So-so

*2017-12-18, version 2.0.3*

This app is ok for a free app but since it’s a paid app I don’t think it has enough information. Everything this app provides is easily found for free. It was on sale so that’s not so bad but now the notifications won’t clear. Every time a product goes in or out of stock the app gets a notification indicator that won’t clear. I’ve gone through every tab in the app with no success. I want to delete the app just to get rid of the number but hate to do that since I did pay for it, however cheap it was. I’ll probably give up and delete soon

**Developer response:** We are so sorry you had a negative experience! Yes, if you delete the old app and just re-download (you won't have to pay for it again) this issue (notifications) has been fixed for 1-2 years now, so it must've been fixed not long after the time you left this review. The notifications have been greatly revamped and improved, along with a lot of other resources and improvements! We'd be honored if you would give the app a fresh try, and we think you'll love it. If you have any questions, shoot us a Facebook message and we will help make sure that you have a great experience. We'd love a chance to earn 5 stars from you!

### 4/5 — Inventory feature is awesome but difficult

*2020-06-13, version 4.5.1*

Love the app but the inventory part is very difficult to use!  I was very excited about this feature most!  I’d give that section 2 stars. 
But the other features are amazing, content is amazing so overall very happy with the app!
Maybe there is an update I’m missing based on other reviews??  If so...someone let me know if the inventory app has become more user friendly!  😃

**Developer response:** Glad to hear you are enjoying the app, Jeanette! If you are still experiencing difficulty with the personal inventory, feel free to contact us at oilyapp@cds.digital or by Facebook message, and we will be happy to assist you. Thank you for being a great OilyApp customer!

### 5/5 — Great oily app

*2020-11-27, version 4.5.1*

This app has been very useful for me ... I’m on the business side of YL and it helps me keep track of my inventory so well. Highly recommended thanks

### 5/5 — So Far So Great

*2019-12-23, version 4.5.1*

So far this app is great. I have not had a chance to go through every single thing with the paid version, but I do love the inventory, what’s in stock, and all the extra info it provides! Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — Content Galore with easy navigation

*2019-10-23, version 4.3.2*

The OilyApp has amazing resources and simple to access all the content. I like that it has stock updates. I will be using this app every day.

### 5/5 — Wonderful App and great customer service

*2019-10-08, version 4.3.2*

I have really enjoyed using OilyApp and all its features. I especially enjoy that I can get in stock notifications so I can be on the look out for YL products I use that went OOS. I also love that there’s a inventory section because it’s so difficult to keep track of how much of an oil I have although ordering duplicates is never really a bad thing.  It is great to know at any point what I do have in stock. Lastly, Brent from their customer service went above and beyond helping me figure out why I was not able to download their app on my new phone. I really appreciated the time and suggestions he gave me to resolve the issue. Keep up the good work guys and everyone be sure to check this app out.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We love our YL family and are super happy to serve you in this way.

### 5/5 — Upgraded to OilyApp+

*2019-09-26, version 4.3.0*

I just updated the app and subscription to OilyApp+.  I was able to check out the content and I am really excited to use the content to help educate my members and build my Young Living business.

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2019-09-01, version 4.3.0*

I love this app and just discovered the oily app + website and am even more in love!  I like having the mixture of oil education with a sprinkle of sharing info that oil users can choose to read.  Great job!!!

### 5/5 — Oily app review

*2019-08-01, version 4.2.1*

I love using the oily app!!! It’s great for recipes, keeping up with my inventory, giving me guidance and best of all... it has wonderful customer service!!!! Five star for sure as they are quick to respond and assist you with any of your needs!!! Can’t ask for more and I’m extremely pleased. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We pride ourselves on delivering an increasingly valuable product and serving our customers who are also fellow oil users. More great stuff is coming your way in the app soon!

### 5/5 — This app is amazing

*2019-07-11, version 4.1.0*

This is hands down the best app available for Young Living essential oil usage. First, it has an amazing usage guide, full of all kinds of key insights about specific uses for each oil and blend. It also has a built in inventory feature which will help you keep track of what oils and products you have, and what you are getting low on, so that you know what you need to order. Finally, it stock notification updates so that you always know what Young Living products are going in and out of stock. 
Definitely worth the few dollars to up your EO usage game!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We are working hard every day to make this app increasingly valuable. More great stuff is soon coming your way!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2018-11-26, version 3.0.0*

I’ve been using this app for a year now and really like knowing what is out of stock and what has come back in stock!  Also has educational information.  I can keep track of my oils at my fingertips, there are so many great things on this app, I highly recommended it!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! We super appreciate you and are so happy you love the app. Check out our Facebook page for exciting news on upcoming updates!!

### 5/5 — Great purchase!!

*2018-11-26, version 3.0.0*

Highly recommend! Debated on purchasing, but was sold due to the fact I can keep my personal inventory at my fingertips and it will tell me when things are out of stock!
