The Recipe Box for Negative User Reviews
✓ You MUST enable transfer from one iPad to another!I have nearly 500 well-used recipes on my old iPad and I can’t transfer them to my new one. Have I seriously got to re-input them all in by hand? It took me weeks! And will I have to do it again in 5 years time, and again in 10 years time.... Not cool, guys: not cool. And why can’t we contact support? It has said “Under Repair” for WEEKS!.Version: 5.1
✓ Love the app but zero supportI find the instant import never works. I’ve emailed questions with no reply. I don’t think anyone is on the other end. For an app you pay for, I expected more. I would recommend it more if not for these problems..Version: 5.1
✓ New update ruined the appThis is terrible! I have updated my iPad and still nothing works. There is no dark mode-looks the same as before. Can’t search up recipes by typing in ingredients bc there’s no longer a space to type it after pressing + button. Even if in a recommended website there’s no “instant import” option. Can’t even manually import a recipe bc the options for title, ingredients etc never pops up at the bottom. I’ve had this app for years and it was fine but now it’s awful. Please fix asap!.Version: 6.0.1
✓ Problems with entryThe special characters and numbers do not work on the top of the keypad. Problems getting additional information added when revising entries. Tried to email from website and just got sales pitch for something else..Version: 5.1
✓ I lost EVERYTHING cannot express my furyBeen using this app for years. There’s a pop up bar when you’re entering a new recipe...it has shortcut choices like “chopped” or “minced,” and numbers including fractions, and shortcut keys for “Tbsp” or “med.” It only worked in the beginning. Finally I had enough and first went to contact the company - and the link says under construction or whatever. Jerks. So I followed their instructions to be sure Recipe Box is backed up to my iCloud and then deleted and reinstalled the app to see if the buttons would work. Guess what? I lost all my recipes. Fortunately I previously emailed myself every recipe of importance (ie ones I customized, unlike say basic banana bread). But my custom photos also? Also all lost. So maybe I’ll figure out yet how to get them back but no more app. No more ANY recipe app. I am going to print off my recipes I saved to desktop and go back to using a book. AGAIN, I CANNOT STRESS HOW MUCH ANGRY I AM! I spent many, many hours logging in recipes, for nothing. If this company makes any other apps, don’t use them either..Version: 5.1
✓ ConfusedPse help‼️the app froze a couple of times so I deleted it having backed it up and now all my recipes have gone and I can’t retrieve them. iTunes doesn’t work with my iPad and I tried through the cloud like you said but that didn’t work either as my tablet has different subsections to yours in settings. I have a newly reconditioned iPad air2. I adore this app and I’m never with out it. I depend on it for my job too as I am a care worker and cook meals for the elderly..Version: 5.1
✓ DisappointedJust bought it. The special keyboard does not work. I lost the ability to classify the recipe. The email for support does not work.Version: 5.1
✓ DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME & MONEYUpdate to below...it looks like some one bought the App from the original developers? She doesn't fix the instant import or other bugs or address anything but continues to collect purchases. Apple should remove the sale of this app from the App Store if the current owner doesn't have the capacity to support it. Like others on here I had been successfully using The Recipe Box for a few years with minor glitches (totally expected). However over the last 3-6 months almost every instant import, no matter the source, came back with a bug report. These issues used to be resolved within a few weeks or so now they just sit untouched so I'm waiting for the day the entire App crashes and is unrecoverable along with my stored recipes (along with everyone else's)...Version: 5.1
✓ Please Update!I love this app and use it frequently but since last IOS update the shortcut bar doesn’t work. Also, notes aren’t visible with recipe which is a nuisance. Would change rating to 5 stars with fixes..Version: 5.1
✓ The good and the badI like this app and use it frequently to access my recipes, especially when I'm shopping. But, one of the things I liked best, which was being able to import recipes from the web no longer works. Every time I try to import a recipe, it crashes. Even when I copy it "bit by bit", I have to keep saving and editing it so that I don't lose everything when it decides to crash again! I agree with the other reviews..there is no support! Wish there was a better way ! I have sent too many 'bug reports' to even count and I never get a reply. If I didn't already have a lot of recipes on this app, I would change. Don't buy it! There's got to be a better one out there..Version: 5.1
✓ Was greatUntil now I would have given this app 5 stars. The concept is great, but the latest upgrade has removed all of my recipes. The purpose is to save your recipes so one loss is a total loss. It renders the app useless. If I have to print them for security, I may as well just put them on paper. Some of the recipes were on my iPhone, but the share feature is not working. It shared a few then the app on my iPad Pro closed into the background. I couldn't get them to share again. This was all done with no other apps running in the background on either device..Version: 5.1
✓ This is/was a great app…I have not tried to add a recipe to this app for a long time. At the site I use most the the instant import fails to work. I know I can copy and paste but do you really need a dedicated app to do that for a recipe besides you put the button there it should work! Frankly I am having a difficult time rating this. If the import function worked all the time for me it would be a 5 but it doesn't so a 1. Since I use it more to use recipes than add new ones you get 2 1/2. Update. Since I was in the App Store to write this review. I did some searching and found some paprika. Does what I want it do do! Imagine that.Version: 5.1
✓ Some way to goGood app., but not up to the standard of Paprika yet..Version: 2.1
✓ Great recipe organizer but importing is trickyI love the ability to organize all my recipes in one place. The abbreviations in the typing section make it easy to type in all those family recipes. The ability to go on the net and download any recipe you see in a magazine is great. Just one problem. The Instant Import function works only when it feels like it. Cut and paste only woks well on simple recipes. When they involve long ingredient lists and multiple steps, dragging the copy line while scrolling is a bear, especially if there are ads in the way. The developers need to fix this..Version: 5.1
✓ Lost recipesI have had this app for years, recently I opened it and most of my favourite saved r3cioes have vanished! Why has this happened.Version: 5.1
✓ Keeps freezing when I'm using itI've had this app for years and really depend on it, all my recipes are kept on it. The past few months each time I use it, it freezes up. I can't move it down to see the rest of ingredients or the directions, no matter what I do. This morning it was so bad, I had to stop what I was doing and access the recipe on my iPhone to finish what I was making. This Christmas I received an iPad Air 2 and also upgraded my iPhone to the 6s. What an absolute nightmare trying to transfer all my recipes to my new i products. I ended up having to email all 442 recipes to myself and transferring that way. I hope this is just a temporary bug and will be fixed shortly. Up until the last month, this app has always been 5*..Version: 5.1
✓ Great app, to bad it’s no longer supportedI have been using this app for years. It was absolutely wonderful - being able to download apps from web easily, readily available, and could sync with phone. Now, however, the sync function is no more. The copying form the web needs to be updated as well - still works - some times, though you can always select the ingredients, title, and directions separetely and download. Would love to see this updated!.Version: 5.1
✓ Please update!I used to love this app!.Version: 5.1
✓ Was once great, now not so muchMy Instant Import no longer works from any of the sources I have tried. Also, the numbers on the keyboard, including fractions, as well as some of the abbreviations, ie tsp, no longer work. Lastly, when I want to update my iPhone app from my iPad, stops working midway through import. Getting frustrated with the app..Version: 5.1
✓ Almost perfectGuys, there's a problem with the print function in IOS6. It frequently doesn't print the ingredients. After a bit of persistence (and a waste of paper), it will eventually print correctly. Thanks :).Version: 3.1.1
✓ Recipe boxWorks well but won't transfer to iPhone so can't look up ingredients while shopping, very annoying.Version: 5.0
✓ I'm looking for another appI was very happy with RecipeBox until the last upgrade when all of my recipe images disappeared. Tech support are slow to respond and so far I haven't had any success getting them back. Considering that I spent so much time setting up my recipe collection into this app I'm very disappointed to be having to redo work I've already done. Unless I can get all my recipe images back I'm finding a more reliable app..Version: 4.0.6
✓ Problems since recent updateThe shortcut keys at the top when entering a new recipe no longer work. They used to but not anymore..Version: 5.1
✓ InternetTo make me happy with this app, work on getting it to download from Internet. I bought this because shop assistant said it could file share, spent too much on wrong app then the iPad one fail to meet expectation Sandra disappointed.Version: 2.1
✓ Needs an update!Great app but certainly needs updating!.Version: 5.1
✓ What happened to your app?App hasn’t been updated for quite some time. Both my devices are running iOS12.1 and the app will not sync the recipes. Used to be a great app, but not sure where the developer went. It would be nice to hear from him/her/them. Hellooo???.Version: 5.1
✓ Caveat emptorI have used this app for many years and have over 700 recipes stored on it. The app used to be great (five stars), and it is still o.k., but issues are repeatedly cropping up (read the reviews). This is clearly an unsupported app now. The last update was January 2016. The app troubleshooting page talks about iOS 8 with no mention of iOS 10. You cannot get response from the developers (who promise they read their emails), save a canned email that is over a year old. Common decency should dictate that this app be removed from the store. I am now looking for alternatives, and I'm trying to find someone who has a script that will transfer my recipes to another app. There are (or will be) many of us with the same problem, since this app will soon die; if you find a solution, please post..Version: 5.1
✓ Unable to print any of my recipes using original version for ipadNo contact for support..Version: 5.1
✓ Was Superb....now not soThis is one of my most used App's on my iPad. It has a superb, user friendly design and an elegant user interface. The search function on the Web allows very simple auto downloads of recipes on websites. It imports photo, ingredients and method. But in the last few months, it has become buggy beyond belief. 1. The auto import functionality no longer works. 2. The keyboard function only partly works. The portion that doesn’t include all the numerics and the measurement abbreviations. 3. More frustrating, the recipe transfer function doesn’t work. My iPad recognises my iPhone, my wife’s iPhone and her Airpad, but just won’t move into the transfer function. Why important? This is the way we, in the past, created a backup of the recipes. Tried contacting the developer on their website, but the contact page is currently “under repair “. Disappointing that what was a superb app is now pretty mediocre..Version: 5.1
✓ Not living up to its claimsEasy to import from pre determined sites : sites I use regularly not supported. Unable to upload from photos - just freezes. Very disappointed as I made the mistake of assuming paid for would be better than free..Version: 5.1
✓ Good to BadYep, this app was once a great recipe box, but now all my recipes are gone. Only 21 are in my library out of at least a hundred and it’s been so many years since I bought this app, I’m not sure if those recipes came with the app or what. I purchased a new iPad and because of the difficulties in moving my recipes over, time took over and what was on my original iPad, is now missing 3/4 of my recipes. It matches the recipes on my new iPad. I’m sending this message here because the contact us page is under repair. Luckily I saved all my hard copy recipes and to find another digital library source will be avoided. This app should be removed from being downloaded..Version: 5.1
✓ Unstable app it needs updating..ANOTHER UPDATE: When is there going to be an update. You would think with a paid app it would have regular updates so its stable. My app has started to freeze, crash when I tried and put recipes in. I cant import recipes from my other recipe box app on my iPhone & iPad & can’t email my recipes.. I have over 300 recipes saved on this app and how this app is going I won’t be able to open it soon and loose all my recipes. UPDATE: Can’t email recipes and the recipe share link doesn’t work so can’t send copies to my other devices I have the app on. Even after trying everything in the trouble shooting doesn’t work. I get ...The recipe box is confused: The recipe box may be in an unstable state, due to the iPad mail system is not configured properly #****. You may have to exit the program to clear the confusion, but you could try don’t worrying about it first... My mail system is working fine and is configured correctly. I’ve tried turning my iPad off & on, doing a forced restart, clearing cookies etc. Is there going to be an update anytime soon to fix things. I’m wondering if the whole app is about to stop working and I loose all my recipes I have saved. I had to pay for this app so you would expect to be working properly. This is an excellent app. I love i can store all my recipes in 1 app. Its great that you can share your recipes as well. I love how you can copy paste & edit & Its super easy to use. This is a must have app for the kitchen...Version: 5.1
✓ No possible transfert fromiPad to my iPhoneImpossible to transferts my recipé to my iPhone.Version: 5.1
✓ Crashes and broken backupsThis app is good if you don't want to add all of your recipes because when you put to many in there is is slow and crashes all the time. When you try and share recipes, it can freeze up the entire catalog of recipes and the only fix is to delete the app and reinstall, only to lose all of your recipes. Then if you back them up the way the recommend you to do the file won't open and work. Also, when you contact them via email and ask for help of to report issues, you don't get a response. So I would advice you to have your recipes in hard copies or on you computer so you don't lose them..Version: 5.1
✓ Clicking on camera causes App to freezeI've been using the app for a while and like it. But I've just typed in a recipe and went to add a photo of it by using my iPad camera and it caused the app to freeze and I lost the whole recipe as I hadn't yet saved the recipe. I've retyped the recipe, saved it but I can't add the photo. I've always been able to add a photo previously so I'm wondering if it's just a problem with the latest version. I can add a photos from the camera roll but can’t use the take a photo option. I like using The Recipe Box app. Just wondering if you are going to update it to fix some of the issues? The ‘cup’ key only adds ‘c’ to my ingredients. The ‘degree symbol’ key only adds an ‘X’ to my my ingredients..Version: 5.1
✓ Won’t Accept PhotosSince the recent update I can no longer add photos to my recipes. The old way of doing it worked very well. The new method is hard to understand and doesn’t work..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Pulling my hair outTyped in all my recipes which took me days and then realised half,of them had just disappeared. Not happy.Version: 3.4
✓ Losing FunctionalityWhen entering a new recipe all of the quick keys for tsp, cup, etc at the top of the screen do not work. Also the print function makes the app crash and no longer prints. Badly in need of updates. Aside from that, I love the app..Version: 5.1
✓ It's local onlyThere is no login or account association, unfortunately I had to rebuild my iPad and could not go to backup as it was corrupt and lost all my recipes!! So I have deleted this app now, shame as the app to use was great!.Version: 4.0
✓ The camera has stopped workingGreat app....however it's frustrating because the camera is no longer working so you can't take pictures of your recipe....please fix this soon! The instant import has also stopped working...not cool!!.Version: 5.1
✓ No supportEDIT: as of 11/23 it has now been updated but there is no way to reach developer as link in app does not work, also, the change to interface is horrible, instead of having the info bar with measurements over the keyboard area in a straight line, it has been moved to both sides of the screen which takes up most of the room on the recipe. I do not like this change at all and support is sadly lacking as it was before. Too bad as this app had the makings of a great one. I caution anyone thinking of using this app as apparently it is no longer supported by the developer due to personal issues. I spent a lot of time over the years putting in my recipes and although I can use them NOW I fear that in the future this app will be useless. It is next to impossible to import recipes and using the copy and paste feature is a joke. I am extremely disappointed as I loved this app and paid good money for it. I will no longer add recipes and will start copying the ones I have over into another app. It was great while it lasted..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Used to love this AppPROS: Easy to use; not only do I have the option import, but to cut and paste as well; can easily edit categories; recipes look great when sharing via email. CONS: Recipe Box keyboard doesn’t work 98% of the time - had to add a special keyboard app in order to use fractions. Cannot import recipes from many sites, even from sites recommended by Recipe Box’s listing. Unable to locate area where app tells you what version you are using - it’s not in settings. Must be computer literate to add pics of recipes - have found that many pictures do not load; app crashes often. I purchased this app and am unable to contact customer support! When trying to select “Contact” on their webpage, page reloads and displays “Bad Merchant!!!” Huh?! As soon as I figure out how to back up my recipes to another source, I’m deleting and just consider it a loss of money! Oh and yes, I have the latest version!.Version: 5.1
✓ Not happy!I loved this app when I purchased it and have used it many times but now there appears to be a bug in the system and the app won't even open. I have backed up and reinstalled without success and now find that customer support has been turned off due to a company changeover! Really crappy service.Version: 4.0.4
✓ Desperately needs updateHave used this app happily for several years but now lacking an update for the current OS it is useless. Hangs on opening any recipe and won’t scroll. Don’t buy..Version: 5.1
✓ A waste of moneyThere's only a handful of recipies a total rip off I wasted my money!!!.Version: 1.3
✓ ProblemWith recent IOS upgrade unable to enter yield amounts. Will paste something from ingredients into yield, very frustrating..Version: 5.1
✓ Do Not BuyConstantly causes my iPad to freeze, will not instantly import. About to find another recipe keeper app and transfer recipes..Version: 5.1
✓ From 5 to 2 starsDon’t waste your time! This was one of the best early recipe apps out there. I have collected over 2300 recipes on the app and used to recommend it to friends. I am not sure if the developers stopped putting energy into this, but in the past few years it has lost quite a bit of functionality and has not added any new features. I haven’t been able to auto import a recipe in more than a year without an error message (you can still import manually) and the direct sharing/synching of recipes between ipads/iphones no longer works. I buy a new iPad and iPhone every 2-3 years, so I know that it is not because my equipment is old. I am in the process of looking at other apps to transfer my recipes to. Unfortunate that I have wasted so much time on this app. :(.Version: 5.1
✓ Two different apps nowNot cool anymore. There are now two different versions of the Recipe Box and they don’t talk to each other. Use to load recipes into the Recipe Box on my iPad, which I preferred to use on the kitchen counter. Always exported recipes to my iPhone, so I could check the ingredients list while shopping. Then my phone decided to auto-update to Recipe Box To Go, and my iPad recipes decided that they could no longer interchange with my iphone. So there you have it, basically unusable for me. Got to go to another app, though don’t know where or how the heck I’m going export all those recipes to a different app..Version: 5.1
✓ Rubbish supportJust get auto response with links to things that don't help , but tell you to write again if still in doubt ...so you write again ...guess what ...just get auto response asking you to write again if tips don't help ....get another auto response etc etc , yet their email states they " supposedly " read every email ....yeah !!! I would be cross if it was free ..but I paid for this app !!!!!!.Version: 4.0.7
✓ NO UPDATES FOR 7 YEARS = DEAD APP!!!This WAS an excellent app for many years, but they stopped updating and customer service went silent over 7 years ago. The many iOS updates since then have precipitated a whole host of function issues with The Recipe Box that make it essentially useless. I am sorry to have to give up on this old favorite, but the time for holding on has come and gone. If you download this app in 2020 or later, I’m afraid your heart will be broken when one day it simply fails to function altogether. That is a nightmare scenario for recipe archivists like me. Allow me to opine that you shouldn't waste your money on this long dead app. I needed a new home for my precious recipe collection, so I searched online for opinions, and read the AppStore descriptions of every one that was recommended. PAPRIKA 3 kept rising to the top, so that’s what I bought. It has plenty of very useful functions, is intuitive to use, and it is intelligently laid out — so it is an excellent substitute for Recipe Box. I have no financial interest in the company that sells Paprika 3, and I do not know the developer; after 3+ years of use, I still think Paprika 3 is the best recipe archive in the AppStore..Version: 5.1
✓ Was good...I love this app! It has worked really well I use it a lot. In fact, I love it so much, I've told many of my friends and they now use it too. However, unfortunately, the instant imports are no longer working properly (at last from the BBC Good Food website)... photos are not imported and it doesn't cope well with hyperlinks within recipes. More worrying is that the developers no longer seem to be supporting the app. Clicking in the 'support' link takes you to a page saying 'Under Repair... Apologies for the inconveience' which is has said for ages now. I hope the developers will renew their interest in what they created as, when it works well, this is a 5 star app..Version: 5.1
✓ Recipe link no longer works between my 2 iPadsUp to recently I had no issues sharing recipes between my 2 iPads. I do not know what happened but the recipe link suddenly just stopped working. When I switch the link icon on both iPads, the right prompts show, one iPad locates the other iPad, but the sharing component just does not happen no matter how long I wait for it to happen. FRUSTRATING..Version: 5.1
✓ From 5 stars to 2I used to love this app but the latest updates have made this great app just barely ok. Problems are: - I can no longer import recipes from popular recipe sites. Why on earth did you remove this fabulous functionality! - the special keyboard with fractions and common measures like Tbsp no longer works - I can no longer go from viewing the recipe to edit mode. I have to go back to the index, re-find the recipe and enter into edit mode from there. - I can still save the recipe source when I’m creating a new recipe but I can no longer see or go to the source once the recipe is saved If I hadn’t already saved so many recipes back when it was a great App, I would delete it altogether..Version: 5.1
✓ Stability and export problemsI loved this app for many years. Don’t buy it now. Several problems too serious to use it. it’s no longer supported. It doesn’t transfer all receipts to another device, roughly ten percent. Then quits, and won’t pair again. Tried to back up in Icloud, it failed. Emailing my whole recipe box, it truncates part way through. The backup no longer works. It hangs, and must be rebooted. Too risky. Hundreds of hours on my collection, wasted..Version: 5.1
✓ Very disappointing update.Update: I have downgraded my rating of this app from a 5-star down to a 2-star because of the new version that was just thrust upon us. There are numerous bugs which are repeatedly making the app unresponsive on my tablet. I have asked how I can return to the old version but never even got a response from the support staff. This used to be one of my favourite apps, which I recommended constantly, but not anymore! Very disappointing!!! Bought this recipe box a few months ago after having purchased a cooking program that didn't have an app to use on my iPad. I think this app is great, and would never have even bought the other program had I known about this one first! It's easy to use, both to import recipes, to input your own favorites, and to share recipes. This app was one of the best apps I have ever bought and I would highly recommend it if you are into cooking!.Version: 5.1
✓ LangueEst-ce. Possible de changer la langue pas trouver et je ne comprend pas l anglais merci.Version: 5.1
✓ USED TO BE a Great App; COULD BE againI have had this app for years. And like many other reviewers, I loved it when I first got it. I have invested a lot of time and energy into drafting and importing recipes into the app. But the app no longer functions as it was designed to. Instant import never works. And all the special keys that made creating recipes so easy no longer work. All the app needs is a true software update to be compatible with the current ISO. But the designer never seems to respond to these types of comments. I have even gone to the designer website for support. And I’ve tried leaving a comment on their website for support. I always get an under construction-type message. Which leads me to believe that the designer is not in business anymore. SOMEONE PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP!!!!!.Version: 5.1
✓ Transfer of files not easyI got a new device and had to transfer each recipe separately because the program has a glitch. I love to use the recipe box but I think it needs to have a serious update..Version: 5.1
✓ New UserI clicked on happily to give this a 5 star rating. Love the potential of the app and it's intuitive bent matches mine. However, before I typed my review and stars, I read in other reviews how it cannot sync between iPad and iPhone. Also, disturbingly, an upgrade gave a massive loss of personal recipes to multiple users! Ooooh! Can't start with THAT! I looked for a response from the program developer but there is none that I can find! Disturbing! I guess I'm gonna check out of this one, boys and girls. I'll be back, though, if all the cookbook apps have the same issues because I do like this one!.Version: 5.1
✓ Great app... But no longer supportedI love this app and have used it for several years, but apparently it is no longer being supported. I have The Recipe Box on two iPads, but can no longer share recipes between the two. I have diligently followed the instructions, but when a link has been created between my two devices, there is no "send" button to proceed. There is no help whatever on the web site. I've invested a lot of time and effort adding recipes to this app and sharing them with friends and family. I would hate to have to discontinue it's use. Numerous attempts to connect with the developer via Twitter have elicited zero response. Please, if the developer is still involved, a little help would be greatly appreciated..Version: 5.1
✓ Used to be great-found replacement appUpdated review: App is no longer supported or updated. It’s been 3 years since last update. I found another app which is just as good and it imported all of my recipes (200+) easily. Plus you can import recipes from almost any web site. Finally, the app continues to be updated and customer support responds quickly if you have any questions or problems. The name of the app is Recipe Keeper. With iOS 13 coming out who knows if The Recipe Box will even work. I have given up on Recipe Box completely. It was great years ago. First off, its a good app. Second, and most important, mine developed an bug and said it was importing pictures just this once. Just like after the last update. It then crashed and stopped running. I contacted customer service several times with no response. I paid for an app that will not work. So, if it works fine. If it ever develops a problem...your finished!.Version: 5.1
✓ What's gone wrong?What used to be such a good app has died... Its support team seem to have disappeared also. I moving from iPad to iPad Pro I tried to use Recipe Link to migrate my recipes. Not only did it fall over after receiving about 40 recipes (out of 1002), the Pro version couldn't be restarted. Attempts to contact Support met with a "We're sorry" screen that the "feature", ie support, wasn't available. The much-touted Instant Import feature seems also to have collapsed. Has the developer gone bust?.Version: 5.1
✓ Abysmal supportApp is great until you need support. First mail gives useless suggestions and tells you to send again if still an issue. Thereafter nothing. So now I sit with an app that hobbles along and no way to get support. You can accept if app is free but you pay for this! Twice if you put on your iPhone too!!.Version: 4.0.7
✓ Latest Version needs bug fixesI love this app and have used it for a long time without problem. This latest version won't put new recipes entered in alphabetical order nor will it allow you to add a photo. What's happened??.Version: 5.0
✓ What went wrong?Noticed that no one has rated this app in quite awhile. It’s now even worse than when I originally posted this review. Practically impossible to enter new recipes as the fractions and abbreviations aren’t live. Supposedly my recipes are now backed up on iTunes, but can’t access them. If you’re considering this app, move on. Was really loving this app. Even raved about it friends. Now it won't load. Contacted customer service and no response. I'm afraid to delete and reload cause I might lose all my recipes. Could downloading the iPhone version allow me to find my recipes? Hate to have to pay again for the same app as I'm not really interested in having it on my phone..Version: 5.1
✓ Missing recipesGot a new iPad and none of the recipes are mine. So disappointed!.Version: 5.1
✓ I use this all the time, but....Please add a login feature. I have all of my recipes in this app and use it all the time. I refer to my iPad while cooking, and use my phone while gathering ingredients at the store so I need both devices to have all of my recipes. Currently, you are required to synch your recipes one by one between devices, but half of the time this feature doesn’t work. I’ve thought about converting to another app that has a login feature, but then I would spend hours transferring recipes..Version: 5.1
✓ In app Keyboard Shortcuts no longer workI have used this app for years & loved it; but the short cuts for things like 1/2 or cup buttons included in the in-app keyboard no longer work at all....Version: 5.1
✓ Not happy, recipes lost, very poor supportSorry to have to say that Recipe Box is not working and despite backing up all my recipes I cannot get them back onto my ipad - the app keeps crashing despite deleting/reinstalling, resetting ipad etc. Up to now I have been a very happy Recipe Box user but am devastated to have lost my recipes despite backing up. I have emailed Corpus Collusion several times asking for advice and assistance and there has been NO RESPONSE..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Latest version so bad, please take us back!I find myself searching for another recipe app, but really, I just want the old Recipe Box back. The new version is visually terrible, the details overlap on the main page, only limited information can be accessed from individual recipe pages, instant import frequently makes the app crash, and some entries randomly change - I have had to re-enter several recipes, and I had to re-enter all the prep times and cooking times several times because they changed to different numbers (like 00:15 was suddenly 22:57). Please "update" us all to the last version we all enjoyed and trusted with our recipes. If you have not downloaded this yet, don't..Version: 5.1
✓ Lost all recipesI lost all my recipes. No support. No updates. Don’t buy.Version: 5.1
