Scrumptious

Who doesn’t prefer scrumptious goodies!? Roxy and Ben put a lot of effort into their recipes. And they are delicious. I most recently made the brownies with black beans, avocado, dates, blackstrap molasses, chocolate, and other healthy ingredients. They were awesome! I highly recommend this app

Cooking with Compassion Made Easy

I recently started doing some PA work for a person living with dementia. His whole family is vegan, and they asked me to cook vegan meals, which I was happy to do, even though I’m not vegan myself. I’ve tried in the past, but never quite managed to stick with it.

I just wanted to say that your app is truly wonderful. Every recipe I’ve made has been a success. Even the family themselves had been relying quite heavily on ultra-processed foods before, so this has made a real difference.

Thank you wholeheartedly for what you’ve created. I hope you continue developing the app, it really is a lifesaver. I’m also especially mindful of the positive impact on animals.

You’ve helped me see things differently, and shown me that you don’t need to eat meat to enjoy a truly delicious meal.

SoVegan Update

(2026) Since app’s inception, I have subscribed and have been guaranteed mouthwatering and inspiring finds for many occasions! Check it out for the grocery list add ins and helpful side notes (just wish we could customize how much we want to buy versus how much a recipe warrants).

App freezes

App looks good but became completely useless as soon as I subscribed. Very frustrating.

Brilliant app with simple tasty recipes

I’ve been using the app for over a year -
It’s perfect for weekday cooking from scratch. The ingredients are easy to come by, the recipes are quick to cook, they’re nutritious and not too complicated. The shopping list function is handy and my list of favourites is growing. It’s my go to app for speedy vegan weekday recipes!

Always something new

The So Vegan book is one of the most used in our house and this app just adds another dimension with loads more great recipes. Great that you can adapt the number of portions. Fantastic, tasty, healthy food.

Hi, thank you so much for the 5 star review. Roxy

Amazing

I love this app so much. I’ve been using it for a couple of years now and still finding new recipes that I haven’t tried! Everything so far has been really tasty. It’s great for inspiration when I can’t decide what to cook, and if I’ve got ingredients that I need to use up I use the search function which brings up recipes containing that ingredient. Love it. Highly recommend.

It’s great to know the search function helps when you’ve got ingredients to use up, that’s exactly what we hoped it would do. We really appreciate your support and we’ll keep working hard to bring you even more tasty recipes. All the best, Roxy

Variety and easy to use!

There are way more choices than I was expecting and I love how I can add items to a grocery list and quickly remove items. This will be my go to app for recipes moving forward!

Great, but I keep losing my place when

Really beautiful interface and so much better than using cooking blogs with all the glitchy adds! I just wish that the recipes would stay open when you leave the app. I keep losing my place when I leave the app for something. Is there anyway to fix this?

Hello! this is now implemented. - Jasper

App won’t open recipes.

After whatever recent update (UI change) I haven’t been able to load any actual recipes. I can view the lists of available recipes, but actually navigating into a recipe to view the instructions and ingredients is no longer functional. It just hangs on the “so vegan” label. This needs a remedy considering I paid for my yearly.

Best recipes ever!

Their recipes are by far the best I have ever cooked. I can’t tell you how much I love this app! There are also plenty of quick and simple meals.

My only feedback is I wish they included chopping in the instructions instead of just the ingredients list. For example they will say two carrots chopped in the ingredients list but not tell you to chop when you are reading the instructions.

The other is the measurements are in ounces instead of units of measure most people actually use like cups. This makes me have to guess a lot or do conversions and estimate.

Hi, thank you so much for leaving a 5 star review. We are really glad that you love the app and the recipes. And thank you for your feedback regarding measuring in units- we have been working on a fix for this which will mean that you will have the option to view all future recipes in cups. And we will roll this feature out across previous recipes over time. And I totally understand the feedback about including the chopping in the instructions as oppose to the ingredients. This is something that we deliberated on for a long time but I'll feed this back to the team to see if there is anything that we can do there. Take care and thanks so much, Roxy

Easy, fresh, flavourful food

I dl this app because I saw a short video on social media and wanted the recipe but it’s turned out way better than I expected. The recipes are all easy to do, delicious, fresh and flavourful and I love that you can add favourites and flip between the ingredients list and method. Using a smart phone for recipes can be fiddly but this works well. Also nutritional information is welcome as I’m on calorie deficit diet at the moment (although I believe this feature can be turned off in the settings).

Hi thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We're so happy that you're enjoying the app and that you find the interface easy to use ❤️ Yes, you're right, the nutritional information can be turned off in the settings so that it doesn't come up on the recipe page. We're constantly working on improving the app so please don't hesitate to email us on hello@wearesovegan.com if you have any suggestions. Thanks so much, Roxy

I Love Roxy & Ben

Finally purchased the app as a longtime fan of this dynamic duo. Their recipes are fantastic and I want to support their work. As a vegan of 17 years I am very inspired by their social media and the app is great! The only one you need really.

Hi, ah thank you so much for taking the time to leave your lovely review. It means the world to us that you love the app and the recipes. All the best, Roxy

Not too bad

Not a terrible app, but missing some basic features, like syncing favourites between devices (iPad & iPhones) etc.

Also no option to sign up/in via Apple ... these sorts of things.

Recipes are reasonable.

Bit more work and it could be a pretty good app.
