Recipe Archive Gamechanger

Very cool app! A great way to archive favorite recipes from the internet. Also useful for creating grocery lists. You need this app if you love to cook and struggle to organize your recipes.

Thank you for the feedback! The team appreciates it (;

Grocery Shopping is a BREEZE

I will find absolutely every reason imaginable to avoid going to the grocery store until the last minute. I’m very busy with no kids, so when I do find the time or urge to cook it’s because I’ve found a new seemingly intriguing recipe on Pinterest. This always results in a never ending cycle of not knowing what ingredients are needed or how to hunt them down easily and most efficiently in the grocery store itself without running back and forth between aisles 20 times. WebChef extracts the ingredients from any recipe I input from the internet and organizes them into aisle type categories like “produce” “dairy” “canned goods” etc.. which makes my trip much less stressful, and speeds up the entire process overall. 5 stars all the way!

Just needs a way to organize recipes

I started keto on January 1st of 2021. Since it is such a drastic difference in the way I was eating before I found myself doing a ton of research looking for recipes. WebChef makes importing recipes almost effortless. I use Safari, find a recipe page, copy the page to the clipboard, and then click “add” and then “copy from clipboard”
It automatically adds the recipe and ingredients.
I gave it 3 stars only because it lacks a way to organized the recipes. I really think if the developers could create a way to organize the recipes into specific folders, It would definitely earn a 5 star rating. I do find it very helpful though.
