I can add note to the recipe to remind me of something I want to try next time. I like that I can make my own folders to file my recipes which fits my thought process & not a cookie cutter mold. Also had great tech support when I thought I’d lost all of my recipes! Love it! ### 5/5 — Get this app! *2026-08-07, version 3.34* This app is wonderful. It does exactly what you want it to do. I did the lifetime membership for $20 and I have built up a full library of recipes that me and family love. You won’t regret this app. ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2026-07-30, version 3.34* I love this app so much! It has revolutionized the way I grocery shop and cook. It has made it so much easier to make up my list and my grocery visits are more efficient. One thing I wish I had was the ability to use it on my Amazon Echo, as the screen is much bigger than trying to read from my phone while I am prepping & cooking. Good job on the app! ### 5/5 — Excellent recipe app *2026-07-15, version 3.34* Really useful recipe app, along with being free and having no ads ### 5/5 — ABSOLUTELY LOVE *2026-07-10, version 3.34* This app is a godsend. I have so many recipes I’ve never used saved on Instagram one because it’s annoying to watch the video, too annoying to go to their link, three screenshot the recipe and never return. This app makes all of that seamless, in fact it’s so easy even my 76-year-old mom can use it and I think uses it even more than I do. I purchased the Lifetime subscription and love that you can share with a few friends and family. And customer support is excellent if you lock yourself out of your account. Thank you so much Jeff for creating such an awesome app. ### 5/5 — Favorite cooking app *2026-07-06, version 3.34* Does everything I want ### 5/5 — Such a great app! *2026-07-04, version 3.34* We have been using this app as a family for a year or so now, and we just love it. Easily search for recipes you’ve saved when you have certain ingredients to use. It’s awesome. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-06-12, version 3.34* I love this app. I am slowly adding all my own recipes and it’s pretty easy to scan handwritten recipes - they need a bit of a tidy up but works ok. Love the import recipe function- I reckon it’s 80% reliable, and I guess when it doesn’t work it’s around the settings of the site hosting the recipe being imported. Have just started seriously using the grocery list function, that’s super easy too. I love that it is simple and intuitive to use. Also love the idea I can export my recipes - family recipe book will one day emerge. ### 5/5 — This is awesome *2026-05-30, version 3.34* Works so well! ### 5/5 — Amazing app + feature request *2026-05-24* Hi, I really like this app and use it daily for sharing recipes and grocery lists with my partner. I was wondering if it would be possible to add a feature that allows to move checked items from one list to another. This will make it easier to create a list that serves as a food inventory since once food is bought it can be checked off the grocery list and easily be added to the pantry list and viceversa when the pantry food is used up. In general I was wondering if adding features that would allow you to keep track of your current items is possible. Other features could include a ‘best by date’ that items can be sorted by. Thanks! ## Frequently asked questions about Umami ### What does Umami do? Umami is a recipe management app that allows you to collect, organize, and share recipes from any device.
