Easy to find recipes and ideas with what you have

### 5/5 — Meal planning convenience

*2026-08-08, version 5.56.0*

Love that I can save recipes to the app.  The meal planning feature is major plus and it is so so so nice to be able to add a recipe to my shopping list and be able to deselect what I already have on hand. Very easy to add other items to the list.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-08-08, version 5.56.0*

This app is great! I can save recipes from the web or I can find a recipe from the many communities. No matter what kind of diet restrictions you may have, there will be many options for you. Planning meals for the week and shopping for those recipes is so easy. This app makes my very, very busy life easy Thank you!!!

### 5/5 — Love this App!!

*2026-08-06, version 5.56.0*

The fact that is free is very nice.

### 5/5 — Lifesaver!

*2026-08-06, version 5.56.0*

All my favorite and ‘make someday’ recipes ON MY PHONE!
Not in my recipe book, or a cupboard or somewhere else. 
Forget my list at the grocery store?
No problem-just look at this awesome app!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-07-29, version 5.56.0*

The app is great for importing and saving recipes, meal planning and shopping list generation.
I would love it if you could categorize the recipes you save - makes it easy for meal plan and find recipes

### 5/5 — I’d be lost without this app

*2026-07-29, version 5.56.0*

I’d be lost without this app - plz don’t ever discontinue! It’s revolutionized the way I meal plan and cook aka allowed me to do both things in a way I was never doing before. An app that saves your recipes, allows you to make a meal plan, loads the exact ingredient quantities you need into a shopping list organized by aisle — all in one app? Incredible. Critical. It isn’t completely perfect and there are some things that frustrate me (you should be able to save your edits of another person’s recipe, and just make it private or something if they’re worried about copyright infringement!) But you can always submit feedback to the app and they are respond and try to improve.

### 5/5 — Great place to store and discover

*2026-07-20, version 5.56.0*

Love how easy it is to store and find new recipes, I’m always on the lookout for new ideas to cook at home and find this app with its many options just great
