Kind of useless to me. ### 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. ### 3/5 — Great information, below average subscription support *2024-08-07, version 2.22.0* 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. ### 2/5 — Print *2024-07-01, version 2.21.1* I am not able to print recipes off of the app. ### 2/5 — Tracking *2024-04-24, version 2.21.1* The calendar does not move. It should be an easy fix to enable tracking macros. I request help daily. Frustrating ### 2/5 — Not Fair To Those Who Bought Program *2024-04-23, version 2.21.1* 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. ### 2/5 — Macros are not accurate *2024-02-29, version 2.21.1* 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. ### 4/5 — Needs to be “reset” frequently *2024-01-29, version 2.21.1* 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 ### 3/5 — Weight *2023-12-27, version 2.21.0* Dosnt have weight tracker ### 2/5 — Still have ads *2023-12-06, version 2.20.0* Not sure yet. I subscribed but I still have ads, Is there some way to remove them? that is main reason I subscribed. Also I don’t understand the grocery list, I was hoping when I favorite a recipe or add to meal plan I would see those ingredients on grocery list but it seems to be random. Trying to decide if I will continue with subscription as it’s not meeting my needs. Otherwise I love having the app. Thanks! ### 2/5 — Freezes up constantly *2023-11-17, version 2.20.0* App would be amazing if it didn’t freeze up and not have to be “refreshed” for to register what you’ve already tracked all the time. ### 3/5 — Ok? *2023-10-23* It offer quite a bit but I’m overwhelmed with all the stuff not really understanding how I’m to utilize everything. I also don’t like how small the writing is. I’d love it if it were easier to read and bigger writing ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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! ### 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 ### 1/5 — Sign in again? Really? *2024-04-26, version 2.21.1* Constantly being asked to sign in. Very annoying ### 1/5 — Needs to be “reset” frequently *2024-01-22* 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.

I will continue to work to get it working for this year since I paid for it **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry about your renewal experience and sorry to hear that you have cancelled your subscription. This is not the experience we want you to have from using our app. We have many customers who do not experience account renewal issues so this is some type of bug with your account. Apple will not show us your contact info in this review, if you can please contact us at hello@wholesomeyum.com and let us know who you are, we will escalate your request and take a look why this keeps happening specifically to your account. ### 1/5 — Paid my subs for a year and NOTHING. *2024-01-15, version 2.21.1* Will be cancelling as it’s not recognizing g that I’ve paid. ### 1/5 — No bonuses when you buy the ebook *2023-12-30, version 2.21.0* Many recipes are only accessible if you’ve purchased the book, even when you are paying for the subscription to the app. Unfortunately, buying the ebook doesn’t allow one access to the promised bonuses. ### 1/5 — Horrible Account Management *2023-12-05, version 2.20.0* There is no way to cancel via the app or website. ### 1/5 — ADS!!! *2023-10-22, version 2.20.0* I purchased the app to avoid all the ads and guess what???!!! Just as many ads as free version. Too hard to read a recipe with all the ads scrolling. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fabulous recipes *2026-06-30, version 2.23.7* Trying to eat healthier? This should be your new favorite app! ### 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. ### 5/5 — Good app *2024-05-06, version 2.21.1* 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. ### 5/5 — Best way to start Keto or Low Carb Diet *2024-03-25* Absolutely love this app!!! ### 5/5 — Love Wholesome Yum Products *2024-03-09, version 2.21.1* 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❤️ ### 5/5 — Wholesome Yum *2024-01-04, version 2.21.1* Love the ability to input my own I ingredients and Also choose ready made menu recipes. So easy to use !! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2023-09-09, version 2.20.0* I love this app I didn’t know the first thing about the keto diet almost a year ago much less the lifestyle change I would be making and I’m so glad I did ! The recipes are delicious I have gotten the picky eaters in my family to eat what I have prepared Never knowing it was sugar free Thank You Maya for changing my life 65 pounds down and counting almost to my goal everyone needs to experience this app and All that comes with it;) ### 5/5 — Worth signing up for—free version is just perfect *2023-07-13, version 2.18.0* This app has virtually all of my favorite foods. Good to know there are so many recipes to choose from. I may in the future buy the monthly plan but for now I just look for the unlocked recipes. The recipes have many reviews, too. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
