### 2/5 — Unable to print the recipe

*2026-07-31*

You cannot get Wi-Fi inside grocery stores. Which means I cannot access the recipe for the grocery list which means I need to print it and the app will not allow you to print anything. Yes, you can export to another program for that ,but not for the recipe. If it is able to do it, and I am just not been able to figure it out please someone let me know how to and I will change my rating because other than this I like the recipes.

### 5/5 — Great, but I keep losing my place when

*2025-03-31*

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?

**Developer response:** Hello! this is now implemented. - Jasper

### 5/5 — Sublime inspiration

*2025-02-01, version 3.1.135*

Use this app every week, my non-vegan friend loves the food I make from it!

### 5/5 — SoVegan 24.01.22 Update

*2025-01-22, version 3.1.134*

Over two years subscribed with 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).

### 5/5 — Best recipes ever!

*2025-01-11*

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.

**Developer response:** 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

### 5/5 — Easy, fresh, flavourful food

*2025-01-06*

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).

**Developer response:** 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

### 5/5 — I Love Roxy & Ben

*2025-01-03*

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.

**Developer response:** 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

### 3/5 — Not too bad

*2024-12-12*

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.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review and for the feedback. We have taken your suggestion of being able to sign in using your Apple id onboard and we have updated the app so that this is now possible. Please don't hesitate to email us on hello@wearesovegan.com with any other suggestions you have for improvements- we'd love to know what else you'd like to see in the app. All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — Awesome app

### 5/5 — Fabulous recipes!

*2024-11-19*

Love these vegan recipes. Easy and delicious. I have not tried them all, but I’m working on it.

**Developer response:** Hi JMac1970, we are so chuffed that you love the recipes. We have lots more to come. All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — The best recipe app ever

*2024-11-13*

Im a vegan of 9 years and have tried many food apps and recipe books for weeknight cooking and simplifying my life, this app by far is the winner. Every single recipe I have tried is absolutely so delicious and they are all super easy with minimal ingredients. My husband has been raving about our restaurant meals and I don’t feel stressed when it come it dinner time now, as it low fuss cooking. I’m so grateful for this app, love it, well done guys!

**Developer response:** Hi LeDALell, wow thank you so much for such a fantastic review. We are really chuffed that you and your husband are loving the recipes and find them easy to create. We are continually updating the app so keep an eye out for new recipes and new features. Merry Christmas, Roxy

### 5/5 — The best vegan app!

*2024-11-08*

Thank you! Your app is a breath of fresh air!

**Developer response:** Hi Keener9, thanks so much for leaving a wonderful review. All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — You’re doing amazing sweetie

*2024-10-26*

Really blown away by the quality and diversity of all the recipes, not to mention how simple all these recipes are. Subscribing for life

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you so much for the wonderful review. We are so chuffed that you are enjoying the app. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you ever have any feedback- we would love to hear it- simply email hello@wearesovegan.com All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — Delicious recipes!

*2024-10-20*

So far, the recipes I’ve tried are all delicious and I love the fact that they’re nutritious as well! 

Also, a while back, I had a slight issue with the app and received prompt and excellent customer service! I’d recommend this app to anyone.

### 5/5 — Life saver

*2024-09-18*

My GF is vegan so this makes me a wonder chef.

**Developer response:** Hi wonder chef! It's really great to hear that you are loving the app. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any feedback or feature ideas. Thanks, Roxy

### 4/5 — Good recipes but crashes constantly.

*2024-08-19*

The few recipes I have tried are great.  The problem is  that as I am scrolling to find new recipes the program either hangs or crashes which is super frustrating.  I want to see more than the first 20 recipes.   The program has some great features and if the could fix the crashing it would easily get 5 stars.

**Developer response:** Hi Susbac, Thanks so much for leaving a review. We are constantly updating the app to fix bugs and to improve the user experience so this bug will have been fixed a while ago. If you you are still continuing to experience any problems please reach us on hello@wearesovegan.com so that we can look into it for you All the best, Roxy

### 1/5 — App freezes

*2026-03-15, version 3.2.196*

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

### 1/5 — App won’t open recipes.

*2025-02-18*

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.

**Developer response:** Hi, we're really sorry that you're having issues with the app since the recent update. We haven't been able to reproduce this bug on our side so it might be an issue specifically related to your device / model. Please could you email us at hello@wearesovegan.com with information about your device (make and model) and operating system and we'll follow up asap to resolve this for you. Apologies for the inconvenience. All the best, Roxy

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2024-12-01, version 3.1.128*

Super generic vegan recipes. Dull, bland, uninspiring. Typical British food. Unless you’re into that. Give it a miss.

### 1/5 — App unusable

*2024-07-08*

App would not function. Once I subscribed everything image shook spastically or froze. Tried deleting and re-downloading. Made no difference. Cancelled immediately.

**Developer response:** Hi Rigan22, sorry to hear you had problems with the app. We are constantly updating the app to fix bugs and to improve the user experience so this bug will have been fixed a while ago. If you ever come back to the app and have any problems you can always reach us on hello@wearesovegan.com. All the best, Roxy

### 1/5 — App won’t let me sign up

*2024-05-19*

App keeps telling me my email is already in use and won’t let me create a new account. Not sure why. Definitely needs to be fixed.

**Developer response:** Hi Xoxoaaron sorry to hear you are having trouble creating an account. We were aware of the bug and it has been fixed now so you should be able to create an account. Please email us on hello@wearesovegan.com if you have any further issues. Apologies for the inconvenience. Best, Roxy

### 1/5 — Would love to try but can’t sign in

*2024-05-15*

I try to sign up; once I’ve entered in an email and password, the app says that email is already taken. So I try to reset my password, and I never get a reset email. I know that I haven’t signed up before, though. Would love it if y’all could work on that.

**Developer response:** Hi sorry to hear you are having trouble creating an account. We were aware of the bug and it has been fixed now so you should be able to create an account. Please email us on hello@wearesovegan.com if you have any further trouble. Apologies for the inconvenience. Best, Roxy

### 1/5 — No free recipes

*2024-03-18*

Downloaded the app and wanted to see a few recipes, only to find out that none of the ones I clicked on were free. For me, it is very important that recipes do not contain 100 ingredients. Since I was not able to glimpse the amount of ingredients on a single recipe, I deleted the app. You can't ask someone to pay for something they don't know. There have to be a few sample recipes, in order for a person to make a decision to pay for your app.

**Developer response:** Hi, when you first create an account on the app you are able to see 5 recipes for free. Then if you go on to pick a subscription you can access the app for free for 7 days since there is a 7 day free trial. During this time you can access all of the recipes for free and you will only be charged after the 7 days. If you cancel before the 7 days have finished you will not be charged. Please feel free to email hello@wearesovegan.com if you need any further assistance. Thanks, Roxy

### 1/5 — Need an account?

*2024-03-02, version 2.4.5*

You need an account to look at recipes, and even then you have to subscribe to see them all. Glad I didn’t use my own email address as they’d probably sell that to make some more money!

### 1/5 — Disclose that you need to pay to view every single thing

*2023-01-11*

I would not have downloaded it if I had known not one single thing can be seen except photos of the locked recipes. So pay or don’t view. (7 days free trial is to get you to pay by forgetting to cancel it, lol)
I can search most of the recipes they have on Pinterest or online on food blogs or YouTube or free ebooks.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2023-01-04, version 2.0.2*

Weds 4 January 2023 ; Hello I was interested in this app but it won’t open for me.  Blank screen.  Oh well.  Maybe some other app will work.  Yours sincerely

### 5/5 — Scrumptious

*2026-05-06*

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

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review. We're so chuffed that you enjoyed the black bean brownies! We're always looking for ways to imrpove so if you have any feedback please do get in touch on hello@wearesovegan.com- we'd love to hear from you. Thanks so much, Roxy

### 5/5 — Cooking with Compassion Made Easy

*2026-04-30*

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.

**Developer response:** Wow, thank you so much for sharing this- it's amazing to hear your story. We're really moved to hear that the app has played a small part in making your life a little easier, helping the family and moving away from ultra-processed foods. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. We're always looking for ways to improve the app so if you have any feedback we'd love to hear from you on hello@wearesovegan.com All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — SoVegan Update

*2026-03-28*

(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).

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you so much for leaving a review- we really appreciate it. We're so chuffed that you've been enjoying the app for over two years :) it's awesome to do this journey with you! We're constantly making improvements to the app so thanks so much for the suggestion about amending amounts in the shopping list- I think that's a really great idea and I'll feed that back to the team. All the best, Roxy

### 5/5 — Always something new

*2026-02-18*

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.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-10-02*

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.

**Developer response:** Hi Em, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you’ve been enjoying the app for a couple of years and still discovering new recipes. 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.
