### 3/5 — Decent app

*2022-01-05, version 2.6.1*

This is a decent app with lots of info.  I just wish when adding my own recipe that it would maintain page breaks. Having it as one big paragraph makes it difficult to read.  Also wish I could just import from a web source with the info importing into the app sections, similar to food recipe keeper apps.

### 1/5 — Not worth at all

*2021-04-28, version 2.5.0*

I’m a YL user, have her supplements book and follow her in FB. But this app it’s a waste of money, it’s sooo basic that the same it says it’s the same that you can find in the Young Living website. You can’t consult by an especial situation i.e. search for diarrhea and you can’t find a recommendation for that.

### 1/5 — Registering doesn’t work. Don’t waste your money

*2020-06-25, version 2.4.1*

Paid for it, downloaded it, tried to register and never received the verification email. Checked all my mail boxes including spam and never received it. Tried several times to resend the verification email. Still didn’t work. Waste of money.

### 5/5 — Go-to oiler’s ap

*2020-06-13, version 2.4.1*

A wealth of information that is quickly and easily accessible. The longer I use this ap, the more nuggets of gold I find!!! Thanks again Jen for taking oiling to another level...

### 2/5 — Verification Email

*2020-06-13, version 2.4.1*

I made sure that I updated this app before I registered and then did not get a verification email.  I triple-checked that I entered my email correctly and then tapped the “Resend Verification Email” twice and have yet to receive a verification email.  Please fix this issue.

### 4/5 — Needs update

*2020-02-11*

I really like the concept of this app, but there are definitely some performance issues and bug fixes that need working out (app keeps getting error message when trying to update inventory and then it doubles the inventory of whatever you just added). Would also be great if they supported YL markets outside of the US, I’m Canadian so not all the information is the same.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-01-27, version 2.4.1*

I downloaded this app 30 minutes ago hoping to be able to find an essential oil to match a specific issue. However, unless you’re willing to look up Every blend they are peddling, 
 you will not find the information you want. My hope is I would get my $6.99 refunded as I used it less than 20 minutes.

### 2/5 — Totally locked up after entering all my inventory

*2020-01-06, version 2.4.1*

While entering my inventory, the app locked up but fixed itself after a few minutes only to repeat shortly thereafter and is totally locked. I entered almost all of my inventory o and will probably have to delete it. Super annoyed.

### 3/5 — Where did the search go?!?

*2019-10-21, version 2.4.1*

Used to use the search function all the time and could find oils to use for specific issues quickly. It didn’t work great because of all the “sensitive” words you can’t use but I could usually find what I was looking for in a minute. Now It’s taking longer. Bring back the search when you hit the three lines please!

### 5/5 — Practical and Thorough Information

*2019-07-29, version 2.0.36*

From diffuser recipes to detailed information on every YL product to body system details... wow. There is so much useful information to help me increase my essential oil usage and make better selections on every day choices in a practical non-intimidating manner.

The EO Bar app is a must and very affordable!
