### 4/5 — Best tool ever. Never again spending hours in google!

*2014-03-03, version 2.1*

Easiest way to find the best recipes and accurate nutrition facts.

### 4/5 — I Use This

*2014-02-16, version 2.1*

I really like the pictures, recipes, and search.  Just wish it would not keep going back to the top.

### 5/5 — Love cooking?

*2013-08-28, version 2.01*

If you love trying new recipes, get this app!  Makes finding new recipes SOOO easy!

### 5/5 — Great mobile recipe search

*2013-08-23, version 2.01*

Great visuals and easy search across many, many quality sites. And can save your favorites too.

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2013-07-20, version 1.9.1*

Very easy to use, just wish there was a way to favorite recipes and rate them. Also, ingredient search would be great as well.

### 4/5 — Really enjoy this app!

*2013-06-08, version 1.9.1*

I cook for private clients, and when I need some inspiration this is the place I go! This is a great app!

### 5/5 — Nice App. iGrill

*2013-05-27, version 1.9.1*

Nice App I enjoy having all these recipes at my fingertips. Very informative with ingredients, vitamin and mineral content. Nice pictures are included with recipes as well.

### 5/5 — Easy Recipes

*2013-05-26, version 1.9.1*

Admittedly, I downloaded to enter a contest, but I have enjoyed following them on Twitter for quite a while. When I tested out the app, I was quite pleased to have a choice of recipes, with a good deal of info on each

### 4/5 — Useful app + Suggestion

*2013-05-26, version 1.9.1*

I like this app a lot. It has helped me create dishes out of what I presumed to be useless ingredients in my kitchen. I only wish it was built with a feature that allows its users to save recipes they really enjoy

### 4/5 — Lots of recipes

*2013-05-26, version 1.9.1*

I like the sleek interface and search function. The recipes are from many sources and it is easy to find recipes by searching by ingredients, meal type, food allergies, etc.

### 4/5 — Great recipes!

*2013-05-26, version 1.9.1*

Love the interface and the selection. It's already given me lots of new ideas!
Interface is easy to navigate and well thought-out.

### 5/5 — App

*2013-05-24, version 1.9.1*

Awesome app very helpful and can't wait to use this more!!!

### 5/5 — Random ingredients

*2013-05-22, version 1.9.1*

I love that I can just type in a random ingredient and pull up recipes.  I had an extra crown of broccoli left and typed broccoli and many recipes came up along with calorie count.

### 5/5 — I grill

*2013-05-20, version 1.9.1*

Easy to look up recipes and calories for each one.

### 1/5 — Please fix save bug :(

*2019-03-06, version 3.1*

I love this app even if the interface is a bit outdated when clicking on recipe links. My only complaint is that I cannot save any of the recipes I want to try! Every time I do save and check my saves it comes up completely blank. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Not worth the trouble

*2016-09-30, version 2.9.1*

I have the app. And I can say it's not worth the trouble to download as it doesn't work. Too many problems getting cooking instructions or even viewing the original recipe as it just comes up with a blank screen. 

Don't look for this app to give you any help or provide you with what they said it will do. It doesn't!

### 1/5 — No Serving Sizes Listed

*2012-12-28, version 1.7*

I am trying to keep track of my daily calories consumed and I WANTED to like this app.  However, while the app provides great recipies, calories and number of servings I DO NOT SEE where it lists how big a serving is per recipie (ie 1 serving = 1/4 cup).
Please provide this information or tell me where I can find it so I can enjoy your app and recipes.

### 2/5 — Good

*2013-04-12, version 1.9*

It seems to search several recipe sites with quality recipes. But there is no good way to search unless you know exact ingredients. Searching for "cherry -tomato" should find recipes with the sweet fruit, instead it finds all cherry tomato recipes. No helpful ways of narrowing down recipes.

### 2/5 — Annoying.

*2013-04-03, version 1.9*

Although it has some good features, I can already tell that I'm never going to use this app. It is not easy to use, and I don't feel that these screen shots accurately describe the app. 

Also, when I tried to find a recipe for split-pea soup, it would only show me one for indian horchata.

### 3/5 — Cancel

*2019-10-06, version 3.1*

I thought this app was FREE

### 3/5 — Why Doesn't It Hold It's Place!

*2013-08-16, version 2.0*

I like this app a lot, but it's got this stupid thing about it.  
When you view a recipe and go back out to the list, it goes all the way back to the top of the list!!!!
Then you have to start all over again at the top of the list.  The thing is, the list updates as you scroll down and it takes about 40sec to load after about 10 recipes.  
So you have to do that over and over as you view a recipe.
It's making this a miserable experience.

### 3/5 — Not exclusively vegan

*2012-12-08, version 1.5*

Great recipe app-yes. Vegan recipe app-no. The recipes look good enough to try to substitute vegan alternatives but what is the point of using a vegan app if you have to do that? Some of the recipes call for shrimp, eggs, ect. If you are looking for an all around recipe app, it is not bad but don't expect exclusively vegan recipes.

### 4/5 — Very interesting

*2017-08-26, version 2.12*

I like the app. I find it interesting

### 4/5 — 💖

*2015-11-07, version 2.7*

Occasionally when saying vegan/vegetarian it still comes up with sausage and cheese and etc and I'm assuming the same is true with the other search options, but it's easy enough to avoid so 4/5 yay!!

Love the app - easy to use, accesses great recipes, and the nutritional information is useful.

### 5/5 — Best useful recipe finder

*2014-09-30, version 2.1*

I have gluten intolerance and the settings on this app make it easy to find recipes that filter out ingredients that aggravate my condition. The selections are copious and delicious.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2014-06-04, version 2.1*

This app is an incredible resource for anyone who truly wants to know about the food they are eating.  Excellent warehouse for great recipes too!  Bravo Edamam!

### 5/5 — Amazing recipe app!

*2014-05-26, version 2.1*

Amazing app that compiles so many websites into an easily searchable format that can be restricted by dietary need. I search high-protein low-fat, and this has saved me hours digging through sites and nutritional data to find good recipes. Brilliant idea and I hope it stays updated.

### 5/5 — Excelent app

*2014-03-25, version 2.1*

It has different magazines recipes and internet pages likewise. 
Very nice

### 5/5 — Good App

*2014-03-17, version 2.1*

This app is a useful as it is elegant. Smooth transaction. Recipes are clear and the images are wonderful. I'm transitioning to a low fat, low carb and no sugar diet and exploring plant proteins to augment my diet.

### 5/5 — Customer support is awesome!!

*2013-11-15, version 2.01*

I had some problems with this app initially. It forced me to login each and every time I used the app...very annoying!  I emailed customer support and got an answer from Victor within a few hours. Problem fixed, and I am happy:)

### 5/5 — Absolutely the best recipe search

*2013-09-07, version 2.01*

Love that I can save recipes. This is a seamless and super easy recipe box I can use on any device. The nutrition info and filtering is super useful!
