So helpful!!

I’m 16 years old and want to become much more comfortable in the kitchen. This FREE app is genuinely everything I could wish for!! Clear, concise instructions, quizzes for progress check, and dishes that you could literally live off of for your whole life. It’s making me so much more confident in my cooking skills!! HIGHLY recommend.

Lots of potential

I rated this app three stars because it clearly targets the US market. Most of the world uses the metric system, while only the US continues to use the Imperial system. When setting up an account, users should be given the option to choose their preferred measurement system. For now, I will set this app aside and revisit it later to update my review when it becomes more suitable for the majority of non-US users.

Awesome

Just downloaded, already love it. TIL, don’t use hot water from the sink to boil water

ITS FREE!!!

I downloaded this app to save money and learn how to cook, I saw a post on Reddit and downloaded ASAP. And yes it’s free, so far as of 2025 there is no paid subscription. I’m gonna recommend to all my friends, just so you know I just downloaded it so keep that in mind but I’m so excited!!!

Trash, probably written by AI

I’m an intermediate-level home cook who thought this app would be fun. It has a fantastic concept…

When I first started using it, it seemed great but I have started noticing a ton of questions that are either written by AI or someone with very little actual cooking knowledge. I have encountered multiple lessons that contain outright falsehoods, or confusing wording. Amateur cooks beware!
