Love the shopping list feature! ### 4/5 — Excellent index of recipes *2015-03-16, version 1.3.0* I'm really enjoying this app. Although I'm not strictly raw foods, or even strictly vegan (I refer to myself as "relaxed vegan", because I eat 80% vegan meals, but don't let it dictate my entire life to me like I used to), I find a lot of value in this app. I'm attracted to raw foods not only because of their health benefits, but rather their ease of preparation. I initially heard of Rawtarian because a recipe for creamy carrot soup appeared on my Facebook feed. I followed the recipe and in about three minutes I was eating raw carrot soup. 'Wow', I thought, that was so easy that I decided to invest in the app and it doesn't disappoint. All of the recipes are good, but one thing that I would like to see, and this is the same for all cookery apps really, is the ability to search the recipes based on the equipment that you have. I currently live in China, but I travel as an English teacher and swap countries fairly regularly. And it's unrealistic for me to have a food processor everywhere I go. If I could search only for recipes that use a blender for example, it would save a lot of disappointment as I excitedly find something that I want to make, only to find that I lack the necessary equipment. I would also like to see more recipes added. There is the option of signing-in with a Rawtarian account, and I'm not sure if this perhaps broadens the database. Although when I looked online, the monthly fee seemed so wildly extortionate that I didn't even consider it. But although there is a nice selection of recipes, I'd like to see more. That being said, the recipes that there are, are clear and concise. The instructions are very simple to follow, and so far the results have been delicious. More recipes and a more advanced search function would make this a five-star app. ### 5/5 — Great app!! *2015-02-21, version 1.3.0* Wonderful app! Laura Jane has the greatest recipes and the app is so easy to use. The last review I posted asked for nutrition info to be posted in the app and it was added to the next update! That's an incredible level of customer service. This app is worth every penny! ### 5/5 — Omg slap me... *2015-02-18, version 1.3.0* I said after I tasted the celery soup. The format is wonderful and keeps improving and the recipes are delicious. ### 4/5 — Great beginner's app! *2015-01-24, version 1.2.4* I am semi-new to eating raw and this app was worth the money. The navigation is a little clunky but it's worth the clunky navigation to have at my fingertips many different categories of raw food and inspiration. What I love the most about the Rawarian is that her focus is on quick and easy. Very satisfied with the recipes - can't wait for more! ### 5/5 — London Wado-Kai Karate Club *2015-01-13, version 1.2.4* I absolutely adore Laura-Jane and all that she creates for those of us with an appreciation for raw food. This app is well-organized, very professional looking and super easy to navigate while grocery shopping and prepping dinner. I highly recommend it and all of the included delicious recipes! ### 4/5 — Super simple great app *2014-10-25, version 1.2.4* This app is great from the easy to maneuver template to the interactive grocery lists. I've been a vegetarian for over 20 years but this is my first dive into raw. Not only is the app great, but Laura-Jane is informative and responsive. Her Twitter feed is also great and you can tell she loves what she does which makes it even easier and more exciting to explore her content. Def worth the cheap fee. Buy now if, even if raw is just an interest and not a lifestyle. While many recipes are free on her website, this is a great site to support for the convenience an app adds. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2014-10-17, version 1.2.4* Loads of great delicious workable recipes. Easily navigated. Everything I have made has been spot on. Thank you :) ### 5/5 — Great app! 😎 *2014-10-12, version 1.2.4* Very easy to use, lots of Recipes ### 5/5 — Best App EVER! *2014-06-10, version 1.2.3* This App makes cooking and shopping Raw so much easier! I have no excuses for slipping up now ;o) ### 5/5 — Rawesome app! *2014-04-27, version 1.2.3* The Rawtarian and this app are the best! Love the recipes and the ease of making grocery lists and getting motivated with amazingly tasty raw recipes! Well worth it. Laura-Jane stays connected to her fans too! This app is a blessing! ### 5/5 — Amazing Recipes!! *2014-04-19, version 1.2.3* I have spent the day making various creations from the app and so far I am very impressed!

I love clean eating but moreover, easy make meals for a busy household like mine. This is such a thoughtfully planned out app which is user friendly. The recipes are impeccably tasty, easy, healthy, and even covers recipes for we people with sweet tooths! Thanks Laura-Jane!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2021-07-08, version 2.0.7* No good. The app doesn’t provide any real value. All the value is from the user who chooses to post a recipe that can easily be googled. Tried to get a refund but never received a response. ### 1/5 — App continually loads for 1 hour *2016-04-01, version 1.4.0* Not happy, I can't even view the recipes. ### 1/5 — App doesn't work *2014-11-11, version 1.2.4* This app will not download on to my iPad. How can I get my money back please. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work :( *2014-10-17, version 1.2.4* I'm so disappointed :( wish it would just work 🙉 ### 1/5 — Horrible *2013-05-23, version 1.2.3* This app is a waste of $, time & space on the device. Not once have her recipes been updated we've tried. The recipes were tasteless upon diligent preparation. This gives Rawfood a bad wrap. Don't bother. ### 1/5 — Disappointing - doesn't work *2012-12-03, version 1.1* I was very disappointed with this app because none of the recipes would load. It seemed to have downloaded some of the data as the recipes and picture index came up, but did not open a recipe page when various recipes were clicked on. It also froze and would not retun to the home screen or any other functions on the bottom bar. I really love the rawtarian's recipes and I wanted to support her, I really thought this app would be great, sadly it wasn't. so save your money and just get the recipes from the website instead. that was definitely $3 wasted ### 2/5 — App freezes up *2014-11-14, version 1.2.4* Freezing up on pictures. Bummer. ### 2/5 — Selection is lacking *2013-03-05, version 1.2.0* I had high hopes for this app but you get what you pay for. The small amount of recipes kinda shocked me. For instance, there are only ten recipes for main courses. Really? Ten? The entire app is basic and uninspired. ### 3/5 — Could be great ... *2012-11-18, version 1.1* I love the website and the recipes but was this app really ready for release? Since the update I can't see any pics and hope this will be fixed to avoid disappointment in what could be a great app. ### 4/5 — Amazing by both content and the app design itself *2018-06-05* The only reason for reducing one star is, the app hangs and have to close and open again, if my phone goes into screen lock and I want to come back to see rest of recipe have way through in few minutes. I come from management and IT consulting and know from decades of personal experience how hard it is to come out with very useful software design for clients. But this app is amazing. Lots of handy features that enhance the experience. The content itself of recipes and their simplicity is oat excellence!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Absolutely fabulous, *2020-11-29, version 2.0.7* This app has some of the most easiest & enjoyable foods. I bought 2 books to start my raw journey, but they are waaaay to intense & hard to find ingredients. This app is fantastic. The chilli OMG. HUBBY &I are almost completely Raw. Ow because of this app. Fantastic ### 5/5 — Fantastic app *2018-10-07, version 2.0.5* This is a wonderful app whether you are raw vegan or not. It is easy to use, has many delicious, simple recipes which turn out as they should and even does your shopping list. The Rawtarian replies to reviews and comments, replies to questions and is very positive in her communication with users. My husband loves this app too and is raring to do some recipes!
