### 5/5 — Blown Away!

*2020-06-06, version 2.105.1*

This app is the absolute beat recipe creating app I have ever used. It’s not just your run of the mill recipe app by any means. You tell it what type of food you’re looking to create, tap some ingredients you have on hand, and voila! It even helps you fine tune recipes to give it a full palette pleasing flavor. Got produce you need to use before it goes bad? No problem with this app. Tell the app what ya got on hand that you need to use that day and it offers you suggestions based on what you have going on. Absolutely my new favorite recipe app. Thank you so much for creating this!

### 5/5 — Convenient and easy to use

*2020-06-06, version 2.105.1*

This was the perfect idea for an app. I’m so glad I found this since I’m slowly transitioning to a vegan diet. Its definitely helping me find new things to cook and giving me ideas for new ingredients to add to my kitchen for future recipes. It’s especially useful for when you know you need to use up your veggies before they go bad.

### 5/5 — Reduces Food Waste!

*2020-06-01, version 2.105.1*

I have a large family and we often buy in bulk. However, ingredients go bad and we run out of storage in our fridge often, due to poor planning and lack of using what we already have. This app saves us a ton of money because we are using what we have! Also, I feel much less guilty about wasting food. AND! In case there was any doubt about getting this app, it’s healthy-eating friendly! Messages on the app will tell you that they know the app is slow and that they are working to improve the speed, but the app is plenty fast for me, generating recipes using my ingredients in just over 2 seconds. Thank you Plant Jammer!!

### 5/5 — AMAZING!

*2020-05-29, version 2.105.1*

This app is really great when I need ideas for my lunches. They are always delicious and healthy! I have no complaints once so ever, though I would like to bargain for some meat.

### 5/5 — Most amazing Vegetarian app!!

*2020-05-19, version 2.105.1*

This app is amazing! It has so much to help you get started in eating well at home. It gives reminders of meal plans. Helps you pick items you have in your home and makes recipes with them, even giving you hints at how to make the recipe better. It calculates lists of macro and micro nutrients in every recipe you make and allows you to make shopping lists. It is so helpful! Even though it’s free at the moment during Covid, I think it’s definitely worth paying for.

### 5/5 — Thankful I found this app!

*2020-05-16, version 2.105.1*

Honestly such a great app especially for vegans and vegetarians. I’ve tried similar apps before most of they’re recipes rely greatly on animal products and cater poorly to dietary restrictions. I am a fairly new vegan and this app has allowed me to learn new recipes with ingredients I already have! No more eating the same meals day after day. With this app, I am excited to cook and taste the final product. There hasn’t been a recipe yet that i or my family has not loved. Definitely worth a try!

### 5/5 — I like it so far

*2020-05-15, version 2.105.1*

Best part is just putting in the Ingredients I have at home and them creating a whole meal out of for me. Then it gives step by step directions on how to cook it and how much to use. Easy!

### 5/5 — It does the work!

*2020-05-12, version 2.105.1*

I am still enjoying playing with this app and creating great recipes.
I LOVE that it uses AI to match your ingredients and suggests the best choices for adding to it.  When it jams your selected ingredients together, it determines if you need more Sour flavor or Umami, for instance. It then lists suggestions and the top row would be the best choices. And even when you are making your recipe you get to the tasting step and it helps you to perfect it. You select that it taste bland, spicy, salty, boring, etc. and with the magic of AI it gives you detailed instructions and choices to make. Need more sour? Select which option you want to add. You select vinegar and it tells you how much to add and taste again. I cook, I am not a novice, and I really enjoy creating with this app!

### 5/5 — Amazing and helpful and healthy

*2020-04-29, version 2.105.1*

This app is amazing for finding healthy  things to eat without having to search online. You get to design what you want and how you want it.

### 5/5 — Saved so much money

*2020-04-26, version 2.105.1*

I can’t believe how often I was eating out at restaurants when I could make something that ACTUALLY tastes good using this app.

### 5/5 — Vegans best friend

*2020-04-16, version 2.105.1*

This app is amazing and helps me plan meals from the ingredients I have! I also live in a non vegan household so having this app helps show vegan food is just as yummy and easy to make!

### 5/5 — Excellent app when you have no idea what to cook

*2020-04-11, version 2.105.1*

I have been trying to find an app that could help me cook meals when I have no idea what to make. The app has enough features for free people which is not a quality I can say for most meal prep type apps, and it gives you recipes based on what you have!

### 5/5 — Very resourceful

*2020-04-10, version 2.105.1*

I really love this app! You can customize recipes to what you have and it really helps spicing up your meals instead of the same old beans and rice

### 5/5 — Wonderful free app

*2020-04-09, version 2.105.1*

Super fun concept. Take what you want to cook with/need to use up and plug it in to create your own recipes with the help of their AI. Not for complicated gourmet meals, but perfect for easy, healthy meals that you might not think of on your own. So far I’ve only cooked one recipe, but it turned out great!

### 5/5 — Cooking made fun

*2020-04-09, version 2.105.1*

This app has it all. Easy recipes and a shopping list all in one. Makes cooking good food easy and fun. This could be a survival app for the apocalypse. Not that this is happening any time soon but coronavirus made some things harder to do and get. Good job!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed!

*2020-04-08, version 2.105.1*

So far I’ve tried two recipes and they have been excellent! Very intuitive app and many options to choose from. Looking forward to more!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I don’t like the update

*2022-10-08, version 10.6.9*

The old version of the app was intuitive and easy to work with. Now it is almost unusable. I’m going to cancel my subscription and uninstall because it has changed too much. It’s a shame because before the update this was the only cooking app I used. Now I’m going to have to find another.

### 2/5 — Not what it used to be

*2020-12-11, version 8.2.0*

Back then plant Jammer Was a lot more simpler to use it just felt like there is more features back then you could do stuff like talk to the developers but they basically just shut down that feature I can’t find it in any tab I want to use the older versions I recommend you get an older version

### 3/5 — App update whiplash

*2022-11-11, version 10.6.9*

When this app actually helps me create great flavor combos and use ingredients in my fridge I love it, but I feel like I have app update whiplash. There have been multiple times where the app has been changed so entirely I find it unusable and they just did it again - I can’t add all the ingredients I would like, there is no easy navigation and all my saved recipes are gone.

### 4/5 — Great concept, however...

*2020-12-06, version 8.2.0*

Why can’t developers make these apps for iPad users?  I really like the mix & match style and how it automatically generates the recipe from ingredients I choose.  When landscape happens, it’s 5 stars!

### 4/5 — It’s pretty good but it needs a little improvement.

*2020-04-02, version 2.105.1*

I would have to say that this has been helping me out a lot especially if I’m just trying to make good food with whatever I have in my fridge but something I feel like they could add on is a breakfast or lunch button because when I try to make breakfast I have to scroll through a lot of the different meal options before I find one that isn’t to big.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love this app!

*2020-12-17, version 8.2.0*

I love that it has prepared ingredients that you can add to any recipe to make it your own. The steps are easy to follow. As for the design, I love that it’s somewhat minimalist, not too much visual stimuli that distracts from the purpose of the app. If I had a critique, it would be to add more recipes. In short,  a great app I will use often!

### 5/5 — Once I find my card, I’m subscribing.

*2020-10-13, version 7.0.0*

I’ve had it for less than an hour and it’s already helping me clear my fridge.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2020-09-29, version 7.0.0*

This app helps me keep my family on track with food and helps me not forget anything at the store.

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2020-08-30, version 4.13.0*

When you putt off grocery shopping for the third day and a row and only have root vegetables a dry goods- this app is the thing that will help you make it to day four without beating yourself up.

### 5/5 — Revolutionary!

*2020-08-11, version 4.10.0*

Amazing app. Really gets me cooking more and buying less prepared/fast food. My only complaint is that once you set health goals, recommended ingredients line up with your health goals but not all of the recommended recipes.

### 5/5 — Where has this app been all of my life?

*2020-08-08, version 3.7.2*

I just downloaded this app about 15 minutes ago and I’ve already shown everyone in my family how amazing it is...so easy to use and I can already tell this is going to change how I meal plan/prep!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2020-08-07, version 3.7.2*

It gave me recipes I can easily make and also have instructions on how to make it. As someone who eats a lot, this app gives me healthy choices of food. Good app.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2020-06-26, version 3.7.2*

I find Plant Jammer easy to use. I love that it finds me recipes that are customizable to what I have in my kitchen. Also the design of the app is nice and clean.

### 5/5 — I’m in LOVE with this app!

*2020-06-25, version 3.7.2*

This app is great for helping you figure out what to chef using ingredients that you have on hand.  You start with a couple of items and it gently walks you through adding ingredients.  I love it!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-06-09, version 2.105.1*

I have been trying to eat healthier recently and I have been finding not a lot of great recipes and this made me able to customize them and make some great food.
