Poor app

It doesn’t seem like it should be so hard to make a recipe converter. This app is extremely difficult to use and very time consuming. You have to enter the entire recipe manually. I would think they would have figured a way for you to simply upload a recipe and go from there. I cook for our homeless shelter and need to feed 100 people per recipe. I was hoping this would make it easier but I hardly use it because it’s so difficult to use. Waste of my money!

Very Difficult to Use

Have used iPad version for years and it is easy ti use. Adding a recipe on iPhone with this half though out & developed app is complicated and sloooow. Can’t easily import recipe from iPad version.

In short save your money

Great app

Great for a commercial kitchen scale up and down recipes to meet demands. Please make the database backup to iCloud or Dropbox, then it will be a dream app.

Serving Sizer app

I used to Love this app it worked great. But then I found out when I got a new iPhone, that only the app transfers not the data in it. That was a bummer since it didn't back up either. Probably won't use it anymore. Can't redo all the info I had. Bummer.

Response from developer

If you do an iCloud backup or iTunes backup, and then a Restore from Backup, all data files are supposed to transfer. However, we have set up a secondary backup method, for peace of mind, via iTunes File Sharing. You can transfer a backup copy of the recipe database file to your computer and transfer it back at any time. If you need additional help, please send us a message at support@creativealgorithms.com.

Good, unless you add a recipe

Love this app. However, after I added a new recipe, noticed that the search box for ingredients is hidden - so unable to type in the box and select an ingredient; need to type a new name every time.
