Useless and frustrating

Very disappointed with this app. It lacks the most basic vegetable ingredients for recipes, yet has detailed processed versions. Need to add a jalapeño? Nope. You can add a stuffed with cream cheese and breaded jalepeno, but not just a jalapeño. In the time I spent fighting and searching in the app to make two (incomplete) recipes I could have done the "old" way just by using Google and piece of paper. Save your money and your time.

Its ok

Got it to gather nutrition info for tracking calories and it is ok but no importing. Later got MFP app & easily import web recipes or manually add them.

Almost perfect but huge issue

When I use the barcode scanner which is my favorite thing about this it doesnt let me add it to the recipe Im trying to add it to. Instead it says "log today" not "add food" so I have to favorite that item go back to add food and go through my favorites and find it then add it. I payed money for this app and it should be able to work more flawlessly

Great tool!

This is a great way to keep track of my recipes.

I love it but could be even better

I love that it lets me input my own recipes and does he nutrition facts for them, saves me so much time. However, the database it not as big as I would like it to be, there are still a bunch of foods missing.

Love!

This app has been extremely beneficial in helping me keep my diabetic mom on track with her Dr.s wishes! She has gone from type two diabetic to pre-diabetic in a matter of months, having gotten her sugar level as well as her weight down! We seriously hope to get her out of the danger zone altogether in the coming months!

Really good app to assist with tracking your net calories. Takes all the guess work out of it!

WARNING!

I was so excited about this app and had no problem paying 2.99 for all the options it described. However, I spent about an hour getting some recipes into this app only to find out that I have to pay $20 to be able to use the grocery shopping list or meal planner!! I have been duped

Extremely helpful

This has been a lifesaver in cooking for my gluten free, diabetic son. I still find it a little cumbersome, but overall its great and has taken so much guesswork out of figuring nutrition info!

Poor Tool

I created a recipe only to go back into the app and find that ingredients were missing that I had added. Also custom ingredients are not saved for future use! I want my money back! Only reason it gets one star is I have to give it one star in order to save my review. Really deserves 0 stars!!

Horrible

This is not a user friendly app at all!!! This is a waste of money, what did I have to pay for that I could have gotten for free from another app. I want my money back!! You could at least add a scanning function so while cooking all you have to do is scan the item. Very disappointed and feel ripped off!!

Mediocre

The app is simple to use and easy to read. A bar code scanner would really help!

Pretty good

Entering data for your recipes is difficult but once done the nutritional info given is great, pretty comprehensive.

Great tool!

This is very easy to use and its great to be able to calculate your calories on your own recipes! Highly recommend

Great App

What I like most is that entering custom foods is easier than some programs I have used. Overall very helpful!

LiKe ..... BUT

My biggest complaint is there needs to be a button so you can use your photos, which are already in your phone. When making a recipe you usually take a picture of it before you finish so you need a button. PLEASE!

So much promise

Its easy to use but some basic ingredients are missing like baking soda. Its not super Paleo friendly in the listings & I cant export a recipe to the bundled food tracker apps which severely limits its usefulness. Im hoping for improvements.

Disappointed

I was sooo excited to get this app! I have diabetes and thought it would be GREAT to have my carb counts for everything I eat. I have spent the last hour and 16 minutes trying to get it to save the custom ingredients. It will save and then when I go back into the recipe, its "gone." Im pretty computer savvy. It should be a painless process. The app says "blah, blah, blah then hit save" only prob is, there is a "done" button but no "save" button shows up. What a waste of money. :(

Not as stated

Cannot add 2 custom ingredients. There is not a save for custom ingredients as stated. Simple seasonings not in the search listings.

Recipe builder

One of the most disappointing apps Ive ever purchased.... The custom ingredient tab is flawed.... Keeps shutting down after youve entered information. I specifically bought the app for this function.... Waste of time and money.
