### 2/5 — Checkout bugs need to be addressed and fixed

*2024-11-01, version 11.8.0*

You can’t remove anything from your cart, cart doesn’t update, price doesn’t update, you can’t edit your cart. Would be 5/5 if I was able to use and purchase from the app itself.

### 3/5 — What’s the point of logging in?

*2024-04-22, version 10.75.8*

Ordering is easy, but it doesn’t show purchase history, no way to track orders and even though you’re logged in, you still have to type out everything for check out, every single time. So, not sure what the point of having an account. You can order from the web as a guest with the same affect.

### 2/5 — Won’t let you buy

*2023-08-20, version 10.75.3*

Why won’t you update this app so it will allow you to place an order when accessing from an iPad? You have to go to an iPhone to do that. Really poor.

### 1/5 — Pitiful

*2021-04-23, version 10.63.1*

This is the worst app I ever had to deal with RIDICULOUS to say the least!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 2/5 — Weak on substance

*2021-04-16, version 10.63.1*

If all you want to do is place an order it’s an adequate app. If you’re looking for inspiration and recipes don’t waste your time with the app. Go to their web site.

### 1/5 — No way to view order history??

*2020-07-11, version 10.54.0*

Why there is not a way to view my past orders, shipping details, payment details, etc. is beyond me. This seems like a simple requirement on a shopping app.

### 2/5 — No order lookup section

*2020-05-13, version 10.54.0*

The app has no Orders lookup section in the Account tab. Useless.

### 4/5 — Amazing Selection, Slow App

*2020-03-05, version 10.50.15*

I’m not entirely sure if it is just my service or the app itself, but it seems fairly laggy. Other than that, great app and better product!! We love MONIN products here!!

### 2/5 — Not so hot

*2020-01-18, version 10.49.15*

Getting credit card and shipping information edited/changed was awful. Did not allow address editing. Did not allow automatic credit card information info for payment, and would not scan a new credit card that had the number on the back (as opposed to front). Not a pleasant experience. I have become used to apps that perform seamlessly and flawlessly. Came very close to canceling the order.

### 3/5 — Couldn’t Log In

*2020-01-05, version 10.47.15*

App is nice..... but it wouldn’t let me log in.  So I tried to reset my password, to which it said that there wasn’t an account associated with my email.  That was odd since we’ve bought from Monin for years and used the app numerous times.  
Soooo, I went to the New Customer section.  Filled out all info, to which it then told me that there was an account already associated with my email.  
After about 15 minutes of doing things like closing app and reopening and trying to log in again, I gave up and checked out as a guest.   Not sure how I’ll ever get this glitch straightened out.

### 4/5 — Great App, except the check out procedure.

*2019-11-03, version 10.45.15*

Easy to navigate app. Great products and selection. The check out process is not that great. Being a repeat customer it does not show my history for orders, it knows who I am, with the correct billing and shipping addresses, but does not allow me to choose a separate billing and shipping unless I enter the billing address again a second time, even though it was already there in my account address selection. 

Otherwise it is a great way to get great product.

### 4/5 — Easy to use, no recipes

*2019-09-13, version 10.41.13*

The search feature made finding what I wanted super easy. Cart and check out were painless. But I would have liked to be able to view recipes on the app.

### 4/5 — Pretty good app

*2019-05-30, version 10.35.8*

Overall easy to navigate and use I would just say it’s a little laggy. And that’s really my only complaint other than being a bit slow to process it’s pretty good!

### 4/5 — Review

*2019-03-26, version 10.35.8*

App is ok , just was unable to login as customer 4th time I’ve ordered products. Over all ok

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-07-24, version 11.21.0*

Downloaded the app and no items show up at all. No matter what button I press or which way I try to find product products absolutely nothing shows up please fix this

### 1/5 — Shipping Options Inflated

*2025-07-01, version 11.11.4*

In the app there is no option for ground fed ex shipping. On their website, ground fed ex shipping is free after 40$, but on the app the cheapest shipping option is $43 + whatever you buy. No one is spending forty dollars to ship twenty dollars of syrups pls fix this 😂

### 1/5 — Why even have an app

*2024-01-09, version 10.75.4*

While I am logged in to my account in the app, I’m not sure what the benefit of that is, because literally my only account options are to delete my account lol. I can’t look at my orders I’ve placed in the same account on the website, and therefore can’t check in on tracking progress, much less anything else account related. I’m not sure what the point is of having an app with such limited functionality. Monin syrups are still great though!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2023-10-19, version 10.75.3*

I have been trying for days to place an order on the web and the app. It’s a terrible experience. The screen freezes and what I am told is in stock is not on the app. I guess you don’t want my business. I even contacted the company and was told in an email what I want is in stock. 
Very frustrating experience??????

### 1/5 — CANT SEE ANY REVIEWS

*2023-02-04, version 10.74.0*

Ok well I’m going to use the website now

### 1/5 — Cart never works

*2023-01-28, version 10.74.0*

Every time I go to add something to my cart, or check out, it tells me there’s a connectivity problem and to try again later.

### 1/5 — Unusable!

*2022-12-10, version 10.74.0*

Super glitchy, slow, loads of ? In place of pictures not loading. I gave up!

### 1/5 — Unable to checkout

*2022-11-28, version 10.74.0*

I downloaded the app to use a coupon for Cyber Monday but was unable to checkout after several attempts. You also cannot navigate back to the shopping page once in checkout without completely closing the app. I had to order online and didn’t get to use the coupon.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2022-11-28, version 10.74.0*

Excellent choice to have a Cyber Week App only deal in an App that is unusable and will not allow you to complete a purchase. Bravo.

### 1/5 — Mistake…which remains

*2022-06-29, version 10.74.0*

Alerted MONIN to an error in the app and website. A week later it’s still there. You’d think they might offer a sample product for doing someone’s job for them, but no. Mistakes have become the standard for modern society.

EDIT - I notice that the most recent review other than mine is from a year ago so I’m not sure how much attention is given to these reviews anymore.

### 5/5 — Flavored syrup

*2020-02-02, version 10.50.15*

This app is easier to use than the website and faster too! Plus I will always remember where to buy from since I now have the app. 😬

### 5/5 — Makes buying super easy

*2019-09-16, version 10.41.13*

Monin syrups are my favorite, so I buy them for use at work and home. This app makes it really easy to replenish my supply. Works well every time I use it, and is easy to navigate.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-05-09, version 10.35.8*

Super easy to navigate, all available flavors pop up whenever you search and fast shipping - I never run out of my favorite syrup or purée! There is always a deal for free shipping if you purchase a certain amount or a deal for buying 4 bottles instead of 1 and that makes the cost lower than you’d expect. I can easily order, look up recipes or just browse for new flavors using the app - it’s great!

### 5/5 — MONIN app

*2019-04-08, version 10.35.8*

Very easy to use. I am a returning customer, and being able to have favorites makes it very easy to re-order what I use all the time.

### 5/5 — Much better than other retailers!

*2019-03-17, version 10.35.8*

Easy to use app and great product selection.  Direct Pricing is 30-50% better than other retailers.  Shipping is fast and free (with most orders).  Exceptional customer service.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2019-03-16, version 10.35.8*

Easy to use App and excellent products

### 5/5 — Best sweeteners in the world

*2019-03-02, version 10.35.8*

I leant about Monin at Peet’s when I ordered a skinny vanilla latte. Delicious! I had been so frustrated with Torani. All flavors I have ordered are excellent without exception and helping with my Dukan diet. I use with baked goods drinks yogurt. In lieu of wine I bring a bottle to party!  I will also travel abroad to give as gifts... the no sugar ones.

### 5/5 — Great app, great product, great service!

*2019-02-26, version 10.35.8*

Love how easy it is to order from your app.  Fast free shipping is a definite bonus too😁

### 5/5 — I love Monin

*2019-01-23, version 10.32.8*

I love Monin and the app is a great addition to their brand!

### 5/5 — Best Syrup

*2018-11-26, version 10.28.8*

App is super easy to navigate through.
