### 5/5 — Fabulous recipes

*2026-06-30, version 2.23.7*

Trying to eat healthier? This should be your new favorite app!

### 2/5 — Changed the app and not for better

*2026-06-10, version 2.23.7*

I used to be able to go in this app and search for a recipe and now it doesn’t seem to have a search bar. Kind of useless to me.

### 1/5 — Impossible to use

*2025-06-10, version 2.23.5*

Impossible to use

### 1/5 — Change weeks

*2025-05-09, version 2.23.4*

I can’t figure out how to change the weeks! Help!

### 5/5 — Delicious

*2025-04-09, version 2.23.4*

This app gives plenty choices and plans for meals! Love how I can print the plans and grocery lists for a week , then I can go back and pick what I want, look up the recipe, and make any changes I need to make and it’s all figured out!

### 5/5 — New, But Loving It!!

*2025-03-02, version 2.23.4*

So far, I have used 6-8 of the recipes in here and loving it!! Can’t wait to try more!! ♥️

### 5/5 — Would Recommend This App

*2025-02-18, version 2.23.3*

I’ve used this app for a little over 2 weeks, and it has been so helpful for setting up meal plans and keeping track of macros.  My husband needs to have a certain amount of protein every day, and this app has made keeping track of that easy.  I like that I can use it on either my phone or PC.  Having all of the Wholesome Yum recipes in one place is convenient, and the grocery list is a time-saver.
My wish list for the app would include being able to carry leftovers over to the following week, having the next week’s plan available by Tuesday of the current week, being able to import recipes instead of manually entering them, and being able to generate a grocery list according to dates I enter instead of by a set week.

### 2/5 — App not as advertised

*2025-02-07, version 2.23.2*

I purchased the Wholesome Yum app because they said the app would to help with custom meal plan so you could eat within macros.  I find out that there’s no breakfast or snacks on the meal plan. It is something that you have figure on your own. They encourage you to get the app to help you with your custom meal plan and then they only give you lunch and dinner. I feel cheated.

### 1/5 — Wholesome yum

*2024-09-20, version 2.22.0*

I think this app is probably really good for some people,but it’s not for me.regards Wendy

### 1/5 — not at all what I need

*2024-09-12, version 2.22.0*

This app is geared for one thing only, SUBSCRIPTION.
Naively, I thought I’d be able to look up and find recipes here. NOPE. Hunt down a LONG list with no ability to sort.
Sure, just throw in Zuccini with Chicken dishes.
Not for me
