### 2/5 — If it wasn’t subscription

*2022-04-28*

App quality is great, but I just can’t stand subscription model. Try to find alternative options and you got a new customer.

Edit: removed another star for app size. Almost 400MB way is to much for virtually any app that is not a game or professional tool.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Glad you find the quality great! We've spent a lot of effort on the app. We're a small team of 3 people, and the subscription model is the only sustainable business model for us. We're aware the app is on the larger side, the upside is that you can access all of the over thousand recipes without any internet connection. Best, Max.

### 2/5 — Very little free content

*2022-03-27*

Looking around the app and I see very few free recipes - the preview is a bit deceiving. Would appreciate knowing how much is premium BEFORE I download.

**Developer response:** Hi there! We're sorry to hear you find the content lacking. There are over a thousand recipes of cookbook quality. We're pretty stoked to offer so many high quality recipes. The IAP prices are listed on the App Store page. Best, Max

### 5/5 — This app is awesome.

*2021-02-17*

I’ve been using Plantry to plan my meals for about two months now and at five meals a week, I haven’t run into a meal that I didn’t like. It took me a minute to figure out how to use it properly, but once I did everything became a breeze. I love the shopping list, the high variation of meals, the option to search for a specific ingredient, the nutrition facts for each meal, the simple way they designed the recipe pages so that you don’t have to keep scrolling back up to the ingredient list, the confetti when you mark a meal as cooked, the option to list only gluten free recipes, the fact that the shopping list tells you how much of an item to get, and most importantly, the recipes themselves. All the recipes I’ve made are fairly easy and not super time consuming, but they are SO GOOD. The way I use the app, since I’m not going out to do shopping anymore due to covid, is to keep the Plantry shopping list open on the app and open the Whole Foods app as well. I can switch back and forth between the apps super easily and add stuff to my cart. I’ve probably saved about $200 a month on groceries this way too, bc I’m not wasting food I impulse purchased and not running into a bunch of unhealthy snack foods in the middle aisles. I am not affiliated with Plantry in any way, I’m just a HUGE FAN of this app. Totally worth it.

**Developer response:** Your review was truly heart warming for us, thank you 😍. We’d be happy to keep talking if you ever have any more thoughts or feedback for us: hello@filibaba.com Best regards, Max

### 5/5 — Great app for people who want to eat more vegan food, but...

*2021-01-04*

It keeps crashing. Can’t read the recipes let alone cooking them. And since I got premium, that should be fixed

**Developer response:** Hey, sorry to hear about this! Could you please email hello@filibaba.com and let us know which device and version of iOS you are using? Best, Max

### 1/5 — Basically a paid app

*2020-07-13*

Extremely limited variety on the free portion of this app. A subscription is needed to see anything.

**Developer response:** Hello! In the free version you can create one meal plan and shuffle recipes. It’s meant to give you a taste of the app. We have a special extended trial period right now where you can try the full app for two months for free. So be sure to check that out. Best, Max

### 5/5 — Simplified my life!

*2020-06-18*

This is a great app, it simplified my whole week vegetarian meal planning and streamlined the whole process from selecting meals to grocery shopping to cooking. I love it !

**Developer response:** We’re delighted to be of service! ☺️🙏

### 5/5 — Keeps Crashing Lately - Cannot Open

*2020-02-16*

Please check into it

**Developer response:** Hi Patrick! Sorry to hear it’s crashing 😔 Please send us an email to hello@filibaba.com. If all else fails, delete the app and reinstall it. Unfortunately, this means losing you custom plans and favorited recipes, so only do it as a last resort. Best, Max

### 2/5 — Difficult to end payments

*2019-06-30*

How do I end my free trail so I don’t have to pay? This app isn’t for me and I am desperately trying to find the unsubscribe button but there is none to be found. Please, send help.

**Developer response:** Hey, sorry to hear Plantry is not for you. Unfortunately we as app developers can not provide this functionality. To end your subscription go to your account settings inside the App Store app and find “Manage Subscriptions”.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-11-24, version 2.4*

Love the app Design! It is great and so user-friendly!

### 5/5 — I love! :)

*2018-06-10*

I love this app so much, it’s extremely convenient and is easy to understand. The only thing I would want to change about it would be adding how many calories each food has. Or serving sizes. But besides that, this app is fantastic :)

**Developer response:** We're happy to hear it! Calories is on our todo-list. Hopefully it will come in a not too distant update. Best, Max
