Terrible!

Looked like a good idea. Scanned a British recipe, it picked up all of the items and amounts correctly; DID NOT DO ANY CONVERSION to U.S. metrics. It just repeated the quantities as listed. Skip this one.

Took the picture, and nothing happened. Wanted to convert grams into US. What is wrong, I read all instructions twice....

Response from developer

Dear app user, Sorry that we caused you such hassle! We're aware that some versions of the app didn't run smoothly (or at all) on some devices. We've since updated the app and it should now run on more devices. Do give it another try! Best regards, the Tastelab team

Amazing

It is an amazing app, it is extremely useful app if you are English (or another country) and you are trying an American recipe or vice versa. I love it!
