### 2/5 — Keeps asking to leave feedback

*2023-04-24, version 2.1.4*

Every time I change screen on the app it asks for feedback not matter what option I press. If it keeps spamming, I’ll uninstall it.

### 3/5 — Keeps getting stuck

*2023-02-21, version 2.0.60*

I love this app but I have to keep closing it down because it goes to blank screen and doesn’t respond jgo24

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2022-04-19, version 2.0.18*

Used to be really good. Simple and easy to use but now it just deletes plans all the time. Other people have said info disappears on closing but it’s random as it will save new info and delete older details. Will need to find an alternative as it’s too glitchy now to use.

### 2/5 — Used to be my favorite app needs update

*2022-04-18, version 2.0.18*

I have used this app for several years now and it has been my favorite app especially allowing me to be able to upload my own photos of the meals so I can see ahead of time what I’m wanting to make or when I share it with others. I used to have an android phone and now I have an Apple phone. I have tried to add new recipes and it will no longer allow me to add my photo to my recipes that I have uploaded sense. There has not been an update for this app in over a year. I think it is about time you get on board with this or I’m going to have to go somewhere else and find a different app that will do what this app is currently not doing.

### 2/5 — Annoying keyboard

*2022-01-10, version 2.0.18*

Unfortunately the keyboard blocks the planner making it annoying to see what you are typing

### 5/5 — Saved my weekdays with kids

*2021-12-19, version 2.0.18*

You think planing is just another thing you have to do like it’s a chore but you have to eat no matter if you plan or not. It just makes it more expensive if you don’t plan

### 4/5 — Something went wrong

*2021-12-17, version 2.0.18*

I’ve enjoyed this app, but today it just stopped working. I tried refreshing and rebooting, but none of my menus are showing up. Any suggestions?

### 5/5 — Easy meal planning

*2021-10-28, version 2.0.18*

Super easy app to plan out your weekly meals

### 5/5 — So useful

*2021-10-18, version 2.0.18*

This app was just what I was looking for!, easy to use, practical timesaving , and support are very helpful too😊

### 4/5 — Pretty good!

*2021-08-18, version 2.0.18*

It’s nice to have meal reminders and what I’m planning for the week in one place. The pro aspect to add more meals is a bit annoying, and the fact it doesn’t have a calendar view, but that’s my only real complaint. Would definitely recommend!

### 4/5 — Macht was es soll

*2021-07-24, version 2.0.18*

Ich nutze es als Plan für die Woche, damit ich nicht immer vergesse was ich kochen wollte. 
Am Anfang hat es mitten in der Woche die Einträge gelöscht, aber scheint jetzt besser zu sein.

### 3/5 — Was excited to see this app on iOS

*2021-07-22, version 2.0.18*

I used this app for a while in my android and loved it. Changes were made that were luke warm in my opinion, but I kept with it. I switched to an iPhone and found this app in the store and when I opened it up, I was easily able to get all of my recipes. That was fantastic. However, every time I open the application, it tells me I need to upgrade. The application hasn’t changed in 8 months according to the store. The most frustrating part is that it will not generate my shopping list, so really what is the point?

### 3/5 — Header is up too high

*2021-07-13, version 2.0.18*

I can’t hit and activate the plus sign or the menu lines at the top of screen under the recipes category.

### 5/5 — Makes meal planning so easy!

*2021-06-30, version 2.0.18*

I love that I can input my recipes and keep track of meals.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work

*2024-02-10, version 2.4.1*

Have just downloaded this app and paid for pro version. It’s telling me to log in with Facebook or Apple. I have tried both and it just takes me back to the login page and can’t get any further. Tried the app support on App Store which just takes me back to login page! 
Total waste of money!!!

### 1/5 — Every time you log all saved data is gone

*2023-01-11, version 2.0.60*

I’ve read the other reviews and unfortunately we had the same problem!!! The data saved is gone randomly after one or Eve a couple of hours. Shame as it’s a very simple and functional  app. Please fix it!

### 1/5 — Disappearing meals!

*2022-05-14, version 2.0.37*

Been using this for months now it has just randomly lost all my saved recipes.  Was pretty good until that point.  Not sure it’s worth the effort reentering all the data.

### 1/5 — So many trackers

*2022-04-15, version 2.0.18*

This app has a bazillion trackers facebook embedded into the app. Just isolate this app and monitor the network traffic. Just 3 sec of browsing will load 32 facebook trackers. Nightmare for privacy conscious people.

### 1/5 — Meal plans keep disappearing!

*2021-07-20, version 2.0.18*

Incredibly frustrating. Spent ages inputting meals, recipes etc. only to have the whole thing disappear when I log back in. I see other reviewers have said the same.  Shame because the functionality is otherwise good. But I would be wary - I paid to upgrade, and it now feels like a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Why?

*2021-07-10, version 2.0.18*

Why does my menu end up disappearing? I spend weeks writing 30 weeks worth of menus and then they just disappear??? Why? I try to log in and it wouldn’t bring back my foods so now I have to start again. Super annoying. Sticking to pen and paper

### 1/5 — Loses my info every time I close it.

*2021-06-15, version 2.0.18*

I spent ages last night entering plans, went to it this morning to add some things and it’s reset back to its original default with none of my plans there. I tried again to see if it was a one-off but it’s done the same. If the developers can offer any advice I’d be grateful because I’m really disappointed at the moment.

### 1/5 — Poorly developed

*2021-03-24, version 2.0.18*

I uninstalled the App right in the moment I noticed the status bar. Idea is nice and I‘m sure the functionality is okay as well, but please start developing this app natively so you have a native user experience on iOS.

### 1/5 — Deleted my plans!

*2021-02-23, version 2.0.18*

Set two weeks ahead plans yesterday and came to the app to see they were gone!

### 1/5 — Deletes Meals

*2020-10-29, version 2.0.18*

This app will delete all of your planned meals, the app seems to reset. Just lost a weeks worth of meals. Frustrating, don’t download! I’d give this ZERO stars if I could!

*2025-05-01, version 2.5.20*

This has become a game changer for me in making quick decisions about what I’m cooking

### 5/5 — Shopping and meals all organised!

*2024-01-11, version 2.3.1*

This app has saved me time with planning meals and shopping lists. It allows me to save recipes and adds the items straight to a shopping list. I plan all the weekly meals in advance. I wouldn’t be without it now!

### 5/5 — Best App Ever

*2022-05-01, version 2.0.18*

So easy to use and pull up on your phone! It has changed everything!

*2022-04-29, version 2.0.18*

Ich benutze dieser App für meine wöchentliche Mahlzeit Planung es ist  super easy gehalten und unkompliziert.

### 5/5 — Simple and Easy

*2022-03-28, version 2.0.18*

Easy to use for planning meals. I like the fact that you can add different parts to each category, for example I have quiche, side salad, and coleslaw all as separate dishes in the Monday dinner section. 
Definitely worth a try if you are looking for something to help plan out your meals.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2022-01-25, version 2.0.18*

This is by far my favorite meal planning app! I save all my favorite meals under recipes, then can easily plan out my weeks with a whole menu of my own creation! It’s so easy to use and I like how it saves everything. Honestly has helped me eat better and save money on groceries!
