Ratings and reviews

The app doesn’t separate marketing and cooking notifications, which is really frustrating. Every notification leaves me guessing if it’s useful or just marketing spam. I doubt this was an oversight—it feels like a deliberate choice to push more ads. For a product meant to make cooking easier, this is a huge disappointment. It disrupts the whole experience.

App used to be slow and crash often...now it doesn't even open at all. Absolutely worthless!!! Update...the app freezes, just trying to sign in. The website at least functions, but now the recipes no longer have a link to read to recipe directions. All you have is a list of ingredients. What has yummly become? A overly complicated shopping list?

It's great for discovering recipes, however suddenly today I was unable to access my personal recipes through the app. I was able to earlier this month. Now it takes me to a screen with a "Get Started" button and tapping the button doesn't do anything. I am able to access personal recipes on the site, though, but it's sad I'm not longer able to through the app
