Ratings and reviews

I have used this app for over 10 years, during this time it changed names and layouts. It was easy to navigate and I always found an interesting recipe to try. I loved how the recipes were also uploaded by home cooks!!! NOW, i am extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with this app! Now I have to pay a monthly fee to get THE BEST SEARCH RESULTS! It's time to find a new recipe app, I shouldn't have to pay to get the best results.

I was on this app just about everyday when I was younger. I hadn't been on it in several years until recently. I think it's ridiculous to charge a premium in order for me to look at the older recipes I have saved even with a free month. It seems like they're following in every other company's footsteps. Yeah you got to make money somehow but to charge to see recipes, save more than 60 recipes, see older ones, etc. I don't think it's worth it.

I was so happy with this app before. I used it for so many dinners desserts ect. I miss the simplicity of it from before. The worst part is the popular search results you have to now pay for. Don't get me wrong I believe with all the work that gets put into making apps deserves their due however was looking for a simple recipe. I type in what I want and off the wall recipes that have nothing to do with what I was search for comes up. Waste of space now on my phone.
