Change weeks

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

Delicious

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!

New, But Loving It!!

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

Would Recommend This App

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.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're very glad you're enjoying our app. Also, thank you very much for your suggestions, we're going to look at each and explore the feasibility of making these changes/additions to the app. Feel free to contact us at hello@wholesomeyum.com any time with any other suggestions or issues you have.

App not as advertised

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.

Wholesome yum

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

not at all what I need

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

Great information, below average subscription support

Great information and recipes and for that the app is solid. I would NOT pay for the plus or premium plan due to the subscription support. We have two open support tickets for days unanswered. But I get their marketing emails about upgrading (I already did).

Update! Kelly from Maya company has been helping and resolved the issue with the upgrade of subscription; thank you Kelly!

Again, the meal plans, receipts and tracking is amazing. Best of all that I’ve tried. I know this company will grow and resolve these issue.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're glad to hear that you find Maya's recipes and info helpful! That is our number one goal. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced with our support. This is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we understand your frustration. We need to solve your problem quickly and correctly and we aim to do that if you need to contact us again. We appreciate your support and feedback.

Print

I am not able to print recipes off of the app.

Good app

The app had a slight learning curve but I am finally getting the hang of it. I was ready to quit after two days but I kept at it. I was glad I did. I like having numbers to follow for protein, fat and carbs.

Some of the foods I eat aren’t in the data base and some are wrong (I believe subscribers add the wrong info). I simply customize the numbers based on packaging and save it as my own. Please note that you need to change the name when you customize which I didn’t understand at first.

I believe this is going to be a great resource on my weight loss journey. I need to loose 8-10 pounds to feel comfortable in my own body (and clothes) again. I am confident that I will do it.

Sign in again? Really?

Constantly being asked to sign in. Very annoying

Tracking

The calendar does not move. It should be an easy fix to enable tracking macros. I request help daily. Frustrating

Not Fair To Those Who Bought Program

Why is this app not free to those who purchased the program? I don’t think it is right to spend money on a program and then can’t access all the benefits of the app without having to purchase a further subscription. Had I known this I would have never purchased the program period.

Best way to start Keto or Low Carb Diet

Absolutely love this app!!!

Love Wholesome Yum Products

So, very thankful for all of your very tasty products. They have truly helped me in my healthy lifestyle food journey. Thank you for all your hard work❤️

Macros are not accurate

I have been using this app for 6 weeks. It is not as user friendly as I would like. Ex: meals from Maya weekly meal plan menu are automatically added to my day. This feature makes you go in and delete each item or it is automatically added to my total macros for the day. The reason I am canceling my subscription is that the macros are not always accurate. Ex: natures own keto bread has very low carbs and calories but the app states it has zero carbs and calories. Hate to nitpick but I have apps that give accurate info for no charge. I have 2 cookbooks and I love them so I will continue WITHOUT this app and WITH more of my hard earned money.

We're sorry to hear you've been unhappy with the features of the Wholesome Yum Meal Plan App. Yes, our app does automatically add our weekly meal plans every week since it's part of the benefit of using the app. However, as a user, you do have the option to clear the meal plan all at once instead of removing items one at a time if you don't want to utilize our specially curated meal plans. In response to the food items with incorrect macros, these are not items that we enter the macros for. They are part of a database we provide for our users so they can more easily add food items to their recipes/meal plans. Not all of the macros will always be correct. If the macros are not correct, you have the option of customizing that specific item or creating a new food item and entering the macros that are correct.

Needs to be “reset” frequently

Update: my account was reset and is working. I have high hopes it is truly fixed this time because I have started getting the emails with menus that I have not received previously. I would recommend this app as long as it keeps working. Nice app when it works. I have auto renewing yearly subscription, and every year I go through a hassle where the meal planner wants me to sign up for a plan. Last year it took numerous emails to support staff, reloading app, clearing cache, logging in and out before it let me in. Then several more times during the year I lost access and had to go through it again. My payment was just processed in December for this year, and again, I do not have access. Despite an email from support saying they reset my account and it will work now. I have canceled my recurring payments so it will not renew next December. Enough is enough. I will continue to work to get it working for this year since I paid for it
