User reviews

The web search isn’t full page like it used to be.

You can’t swipe up on the web search. It closes because it isn’t full page.

Absolutely love it!

Have used it for years. Only criticism is I don’t like the new index layout on iPad. I prefer just a list not hundreds of photos to plough through.

Annoying changes!!

We have been using this app for years and liked it…mostly. It’s going in the wrong direction.

A couple of things that are a huge hassle: sometimes you can share it with another person and have the transfer work, and sometimes it doesn’t work no matter what you do. Another huge annoyance is that they took away the ability to easily text a recipe to a friend. That feature literally just disappeared. You’re supposed to get better over time, not worse!

Clunky app

I have used this app for years on my iPhone. For the most part, it works well except for clearing pantry items. I often find that they pop back up after I have cleared them. I can live with that, but what is really inconvenient is not being able to sync between my iPhone and my iPad. When I download the app onto my iPad, I was only able to get some of my recipes transferred, and same thing when I add recipes on my iPad - they do not transfer to my phone. Would love to figure that out because I don’t want to have to take my iPad to the grocery store when buying ingredients. And, I prefer using my iPad when cooking so both devices need to sync.
