The Recipe Box for Positive User Reviews

Fantastic AppI love this app! It's quick, simple and intuitive to use, and it's so handy for filing new recipes I've come up with or found. No more lost bits of paper or recipes ruined because I've splashed something on them! Thanks, guys!.Version: 3.4

Best thing since sliced breadBest app to organise all my recipes. Soo easy to use. Great features such as instant import from some websites..Version: 3.4

Just the best apThis would have to be the best ap available for recipes. I now have a renewed zest for cooking, hubby is loving all the amazing new dishes that I am finding on the many websites that has the instant import, sooo easy!!! I truly recommend this ap to all..Version: 4.0.7

Awesome recipe file appThis app is so much better than other apps I've purchased for twice as much money & now not using because I've found this one! Easy to cut & paste from web & on some sites transfers recipes to your file with the touch of one button. Easy to find recipes in your file due to numerous subtitles you can add & great little photos you can take of your dishes. Easy to edit & make extra notes. Fabulous!!.Version: 4.0.7

Recipe BoxThis app is great. Easy to use and fantastic that direct imports available from some recipe web sites. Recommend!.Version: 3.4

It's become my kitchen bibleThis is the best and easiest to use app. I have found. All my recipes are now stored on it - and I've even researched old favourites on the web - and downloaded them. It's great for transferring shopping lists to my phone - and for sending recipes requested by my friends. You have a world of cookery books and recipes at your finger tips........and if you type in a few ingredients, you can search for recipes using them. I did have a problem with an upgrade - but had great help from the support team. Highly recommended - and a big thank you to the developers!.Version: 4.0.6

Love love love this appI love this app. I cook a lot. I now have all my recipes loaded and have done away with my card file. It makes searching the web and down loading, editing, creating shopping lists, sharing and sorting recipes so easy. Best of all I can take everything with me so when I change my mind on whats for dinner, it makes it quick to put a new shopping list together. The only added feature would be having a way to double or triple the recipe without having to do the math yourself. I cook for large groups at the time of anywhere from 20-50 people and having an initial scaling would be awesome. But I am likely the exception to the rule here as this is not a common need, so I live with a calculator..Version: 5.1

SynchronisationIOS 13 Impossible de synchroniser mes recettes entre 2 applications thé recipies..Version: 5.1

Great Recipe Manager ❤️This app is really well thought out. It has all the features I need to keep my kitchen running smoothly, from finding what to cook, to shopping, to preparing. I can access my recipes even when I'm not online and my collection is totally private. I love being able to share with my friends and family, too!!.Version: 6.0.1

No more lost recipes!This is a great app - it does exactly what it promises and is so easy to use. Note - this isn't intended to give you a large set of recipes, it's intended for your own recipe collection. The user interface is great - you can copy and paste recipes from the web with ease, including photos. If you are entering your own recipes or copying from books, the keyboard defaults to standard measures and terms used in recipes so this becomes a breeze. I added 7 recipes from a variety of sources in less than half an hour. The finished recipes look great and you can include URL links to the web page if available. I would recommend this to anyone who loves collecting and reusing recipes. The app also allows you to email your finished recipes without any hassle. It would be nice if you could change the background of the pages to mix it up a little but overall this is well worth the money..Version: 2.1

Missymissy666Have had this app for a few years now, and I cannot live without it, amazing what you can do and I have even had my friends download it also. Never ever had any problems. So believe me if you do not have it, download it now. 5 stars worthy..Version: 5.1

Brilliant AppThe app is easy to use and colourful. i can now store all my recipes on ipad using this app. looking forward for updates..Version: 3.4

Great appGreat app. One place for all my recipes.Version: 4.0.7

FantasticDon't need to say anymore......Fantastic App.Version: 5.0.1

Good app but..According to the app British cooking does not exist under the cuisine setting. Would have got 5 stars if it wasn't for this. New update still doesn't recognise British cooking even though they say it does..Version: 3.4

Great app, very handyFantastic app. Easy to use and stores all your recipes in the one spot. Also syncs well with the iPod version so you can use it to shop with. Love it..Version: 3.4

Best recipe journalIt is the best app to copy and past recipes from the Internet or email into a journal. The screen stays on until you press your home button to exit, so you can cook and refer to it without having to tap the screen and avoid getting your ipad messy. Really easy to use, if this is the first time you've decided to buy a recipe journal, get this one. I have tried 6 of them. I've never written a review for an app before but this one deserves it! Shopping list is brilliant if you want to meal plan. I can't say enough good things about it. Never lose a recipe again. Possibly The email function could be improved to circulate recipes easily with the images. Email function is not so intuitive, also it doesn't copy the Pictures. to copy the images from the Internet hold your finger then save image and then add through photo album option on the recipe page..Version: 3.4

Great appThis is what I love about this app 1. My iPad stays open at the page until I've finished with the recipe. 2. I can download and save most recipes directly from the internet. Copying and pasting is easy if the recipe doesn't have download capabilities. 3. The app organises and categorises the recipes so that they are easy to find. 4. I have the ability to create my own folders for recipes that are important or that don't fit in the folders provided. 5. The format is easy to read and to edit. It is one of my most favourite apps on my iPad. I use it daily. No more leafing thru books and loose recipes to find what I'm after..Version: 4.0.7

Love!I love this app! It does all a home cook would love!.Version: 3.4

Good appMaking a recipe book with all my favourites is really easy with this app..Version: 3.4

Love this appYears ago I saw this app and thought I’d give it a try. It makes looking up your recipes easy! One thing I love is that you can email your recipes to friends right from the recipe itself. I love the format. Whoever designed this app did a very fine job at making it easy to use. No more searching through recipe cards, ripped out magazine pages or cookbooks! I use this app every day. I have hundreds of recipes in it. If you cook and bake you will love this app!.Version: 6.0.2

Unable to select and editI have had this app for years, and really like it, but, lately I cannot select to edit or cut and paste. The option comes up when I touch the part I want to select, but it doesn’t let me select. Frustrating!!!!!.Version: 5.1

Happy for the updateHave been using this simple little app for years. It does everything I need with no clutter, or excess fields. It makes keeping, using & sharing favourite recipes easy. I like the format for ingredients and directions. I have never used the notes section but think it will be useful when adapting gluten free recipes..Version: 6.0.1

Love the App and Teach the AppI love this app but there seems to be a couple of features that are not working: 1. The “Back Button” that takes us back to main menus list does not work. 2. The feature to send recipes by WiFi to another iPad does not work. Otherwise the app is wonderful, especially when importing from recipe websites and emailing to someone who has the app. Hopefully the Developer Kathleen Tavel will fix these two things so that my clients can continue to enjoy the app that I recommend as often as I can at all my classes. Thanks for a great App and I look forward to more features when you find them. Pamela.Version: 5.1

Love it! And Love the Update!Updated review: I was so excited to see this app get updated and be supported again! I have used this app for years for my recipes and to help meal plan, but over time it had lost the ability to transfer recipes between the app on my iPhone and my iPad. The “instant import” feature had also stopped working (as far as I could tell), but I could still manually import recipes from websites and blogs so I made the best of it and it was still a mostly useful app. But NOW, with the update, everything is back and even better than before. The transfer between my phone and iPad works again. Even better, instant recipe import is even better than before!! I just imported a recipe from a food blog with the touch of a button! So amazing and way easier than the manual import I used to do. I love it and will go back to recommending this app to friends. ********* Great app! So easy to upload recipes from websites. I have it on both my iPad and iPhone and sync recipes between them. I use the app as a way to brainstorm dinner ideas. Before each grocery store trip, I browse the dinner recipes and select which one I'm going to make that week. So nice to have them all in one place and not rummaging through all of my cookbooks, magazines, and random scraps of paper for ideas..Version: 6.0.2

Excellent AppEvery time I discover a new recipe, I type it directly into this app. So no more recipe cuttings lying around, and everything is in one place and easy to find. Twice as convenient now that I have purchased the "To Go" version of the app for my iPhone. It took seconds to transfer all of my iPad recipes to the iPhone wirelessly. Absolutely fantastic app for anyone who enjoys cooking, and I can't recommend it too highly. Buy it now!.Version: 3.3

Awesome appsI love this app , worth every cent I spent ..Version: 5.1

Once again this is the best recipe app ever!I’ve been using this app since it came out but about four years ago it appeared to have been orphaned. A lot of features stopped working but I stayed with it and the basics worked. I just got notification of an update after all this time and am ecstatic!!! I use this just about on a daily basis. It was and now is again the best recipe keeper/organizer ever. Thank you, thank you,thank you for the update, bringing all features back to life. Previous review: No updates or response from developer in 2 years. Features quit working. Don’t buy this..Version: 6.0.1

A great helpThanks to this app I have gathered some really good recipes in one place. I particularly like salads and now I have great variety at my finger tips. Keep adding new websites to the Instant Import facility! Makes adding recipes so painless..Version: 5.0

ReviewI love this App and was extremely happy there has been some updates. It has been my go to recipe app for a long time. Thanks!.Version: 6.0.2

Perfect for keeping my own recipesI love that this app doesn't bog me down with a lot of pre-entered recipes that I will never use. It lets me enter my own and I'm even able to easily add from recipes I find on the internet directly in the app. The only thing I don't like is in the latest update when I try to share a recipe by email with someone who doesn't own the app, it doesn't include the picture anymore like it used to. It only attaches the recipe file with the picture placed in *there* (which is useless to the other person if they don't have the app)..Version: 5.1

Unhappy with latest updateI love most features of this app and have been using it for several years. However the latest version has two new features which are annoying to the degree that I would consider using another app if I didn't have all of my recipes already stored in this one. The new larger font is too large and gets over-crowded making for poorer not better legibility as was intended. The other is the lost of the picture and other functions (editing, bookmarking, etc) that was available on the ingredients-direction page. They were handy right there but now I have to toggle back and forth which is very annoying. Please revise back or at least give the option to chose these features..Version: 5.1

Best, Must TryEdit- no longer able to praise this app. Doesn't function with instant import, random characters with preset measurement choices and no response to any support tickets I have turned in the last 2 years This is the best recipe app out of any I tried. They listen to customers' requests wonderfully and integrate things in updates we've requested. Works without flaw all the time..Version: 5.1

Love it!Extremely efficient and intuitive app. Well done!.Version: 3.4

Great appLove it.Version: 5.1

Brilliant app so easy!!!!!I love this app. It is so easy to use, so easy to find recipes using any words associated with the recipe you might be looking for. All the recipes are with me even when I am on holidays or making visits to the big city. Its also easy to download recipes from the internet or add my own. I would love it if I could save and view the actual recipes on my pc (which I might be able to do - still looking into this) in case my ipad ever crashes..Version: 3.4

Great appDoes what it says on the tin. You can upload your own photos and importing recipes is easy. You can also add web links which is helpful when you want to share. Just what I wanted!!.Version: 4.0.7

My main recipe app.This is far and away my favorite recipe app! Between the instant import from most recipe sites, and speaking the recipes that are not instantly import-able, I can get a recipe in it in less than five minutes any time. I also like that I can tap an ingredient, and it grays out, or tap the step in the directions and it highlights. This helps me keep my place. I am not a chef or anything, but I dig this app..Version: 5.1

Could be a great wee appThis is a lovely looking app, with fabulous potential, and I am really enjoying using it to build up my recipe collection. However, a few wee gripes. Firstly, most of the instant imports don't work and you have to do them manually. This is not a massive problem as manual import is nearly as quick and easy, but it's a tad disappointing when the app is supposed to have this feature. Secondly, there is not as much support for the UK user - there is a feeling that this is very much an American app. For example, all the recipes you start with are in US measurements only. Thirdly, and this is related to the second point, there is no means of converting quantities and temperatures instantly to your chosen setting. This would be a particular advantage due to the huge use of Internet recipes, many of which are from the US or other countries. Those are nitpicks though. Please keep working to improve this app - I have a feeling it's going to just keep on getting better!.Version: 3.4

Love this app!I have been using this app for about 3 years and it has always performed perfectly for me! It is an easy way to gather Internet recipes. In addition, I can put my own recipes in and when I need to share it with a friend in a printed copy, it looks so professional. Please keep it going, I have had no issues with malfunctioning, adding recipes, sharing or viewing recipes! It may take a few tries for you to get the hang of it, but it's so easy to import whatever you want to keep. Editing is a breeze..Version: 5.1

Importing & EditingLove the updates and the link between iPad and iPhone is great. One thing I discovered, if you EDIT a current recipe on one device, you need to delete the old recipe on the other device before you link the devices and “share” the recipes. It’s a simple fix, but if you don’t delete the old recipe it will not update your edits! The new import feature from the web is great….just play with it and you’ll love it….beats typing long recipes. I’ve had this original app on my iPhone for several years….it’s great when you bring one of your items to a party and someone wants the recipe….you can text the recipe from the the app or email it, both work very well. It’s like having my personal recipe collection in my pocket at all times..Version: 6.0.2

ConvenientThis is a great place to keep online recipes. I love the fact that it stays it on and unlocked on my iPad. Easy to use..Version: 5.1

Perfect for what I needI'm a professional chef and for while now have been frustrated with though recipe apps I have found in he App Store. This one however is perfect for what I need. Quick, easy and quickly understood. As a previous reviewer has said very intuitive to use. Well done to its developers..Version: 3.4

Recipe BoxEasy to Use. Good for picking up recipes or entering. Like the ability to add own categories and themes. Real easy to use on the bench top. Mods in the last few updates have continued to make easier to use..Version: 3.4

Black screenI keep getting a black screen? Very annoying.Version: 4.0.2

WOW an app that works!Extremely easy to use, grabs most recipes instantly...if you can't it's very easy to manually add recipes. Also very easy to share your recipes with others via wifi..Version: 5.1

Use to love, love this app.I use to love this app but the import feature which is what I loved it for stop function years ago. The keyboard is dead in the water, I have contacted them and they never respond. I guess I need to look for a new app what kills me is I have made everyone in my family purchase this app so we can share recipes so lost business for them since we are shopping for a new one. DO NOT purchase if want to be disappointed..Version: 5.1

FabulousI’ve had the app for several years then it stopped working correctly. I still used it though because the format was appealing to me. Now I am over the moon happy that the app got the attention it needed, and all functions seem to be operating properly. Better yet, none of my recipes were sacrificed with the update. Positively pleased!.Version: 6.0.2

Recipe boxI love recipe box so easy to use recipes are easily accessible & love being able to import recipes from web sites from the application..Version: 4.0.6

Mrs Karen EllwoodI like this app very much. It's allowed me to convert a drawer full of recipes torn out of magazines or copied from the Internet to be organised into one very stylish folder. It does require some patience to copy all the recipes into the app but once done their all beautifully organised and very easy to email to friends. It comes with a very helpful guide explaining how to copy and paste recipes directly from the internet into your recipe cards. The keypad is also fantastic with extra keys to speed up copying recipes (chopped, 1/2 lb, oz, Tbsp, fl oz ,diced, peeled, etc) There are also a few recipes already installed just to get you started,but you can soon delete these if you don't like them. All in all a very good app but some patience is required..Version: 1.3

Must have for cooksUsing this to store IQS recipes. The best most used app in my library. It does exactly as it says it does. Love love this app :).Version: 3.4

Excellent productI have been using this App for the last 12 years and love it. It works as long as you do not update the latest operating system. Wish I could buy this App for my PC..Version: 5.1

Thank for the update!I have been using this app for MANY years and a lot of features stopped working, but I put so much time and effort into building up my catalogue I didn’t want to switch. I also really like the format. I love that the instant import works again! I’m still getting used to some of the other updates, it it’s working great! Thank you thank you!!.Version: 6.0.1

Luv it!Just what I have been looking for! Thanks 😊.Version: 5.1

Best app on my ipadFabulous, you can type recipes in, cut and paste them in, or import direct from a large number of sites that are book marked on the add recipe page. Add pics too. Categories are fully customisable so you can tailor them to your needs and then tag your recipes for easy sorting later. And best of all, you can select recipes and with one button create a shopping list - easily cross out those ingredients you already have then mail the list to yourself! I cannot think of anything that I would change about this app, I love it and use it all the time!.Version: 3.3

BrilliantInstead of having every safari window open with recipes I like. Now I import them into this app, I have even cleared my notes app where I previously cut and pasted the ones I liked. This is the best app I have on my iPad, it's easy and saves me trying to remember that awesome recipe I saw three weeks ago that I bookmarked along with a tonne of others but now can't find..Version: 4.0.6

Love this AppThis app works very well for me. I put all my favourite recipes here but also those from the internet that I have tried and loved. Easy to send someone a copy, easy to use while cooking. Love it..Version: 5.1

This is the one........... and I've tried them all. Intuitive and easy to use, and the developer has thought of everything. I love the way you can delete all included recipes, (and reinstall them at any time) allowing you to use as a digital source for your own favourites. Shopping list is very innovative too, add all ingredients at once, mark the ones you already have, and then once you're shopping, cross them off as you go. Excellent App, you will not be disappointed..Version: 4.0.2

Perfect!Ok, I never ever review apps but I had to make an exception with this. It's perfect! Everything is intuitive, does exactly what you need it to do and looks great too. Just buy it, it's the best recipe organiser on the app store..Version: 3.3

MrsThe best app ever, I could not do without my Recipe Box app..Version: 5.1

AwesomeGreat app, easy to use & even easier to import recipes into. Thanks for helping get rid of all those loose pieces of paper..Version: 3.2

Absolutely FantasticI couldn't manage without this app, I use it every day. It would be fantastic if you could alter serving sizes but I understand that how the app works would make this too difficult.Version: 4.0.2

Good recipe appWorks pretty well.some recipes didn't import but was able to copy and paste. Format for reading on iPad is good. Overall very good. I do worry about the possibility of losing my recipes as what happened with another user but willing to keep with this one..Version: 5.1

I Love this app,!I use this app everyday . It's great for importing recipes from websites and emailing and receiving recipes from friends and is very easy to navigate , I would definitely recommend it to anyone to buy ..Version: 4.0.2

Almost PerfectI had to switch from my former Recipe Pad app when the developer claimed he would no longer support the app ugh!!!. I downloaded my apps before I hit upon this one and I am glad I did. Importing from most sites is easy , copy and paste is easy as well. I would like some additional features are to accommodate sous vide cooking and more sophisticated iCloud support and I hope the developer is working on it. It would also be nice to have a favorite recipe sites feature as opposed to scrolling though the list to get at the ones you frequent. All in all thus app is a powerful tool..Version: 5.1

Wow!!!Love this app. Fun, easy to use and easy to download all of my favorite recipes. Give it a try you will never use another recipe box. Can't tell you how many recipes I have lost with other apps. I love going to the store, looking up a recipe and having at the touch of my fingers. I transfer recipes from my phone to my pad. This app is amazing. Instead of putting in calories I put in points for weight watchers. Give it a try! You won't be sorry! Yes, mine freezes up once in a while. I just reboot my iPad. I, too, think this app just keeps getting better. Thanks so much for a terrific product..Version: 5.1

Help. Not working well.Is this app still even being supported? I’ve used it for years and have loved it, but now I can’t even get it to sync between my devices or my daughters devices. I’ve invested a lot of time organizing and entering all of my recipes I purchased this app and purchased it for both of my daughters as well so we can share, but it simply won’t connect. And now I can’t seem to find a way to connect with anyone for help. If I can’t get it figured out, I’m searching for an app I can use and hopefully transfer everything fr9m here to there..Version: 5.1

Quick, Easy and SmartEase of use facilitates access to elegant and highly effective functionality..Version: 3.4

Best app everI absolutely love the Recipe Box... Best app ever and I couldn't be without it now...Version: 5.1

Brilliant little appSyncs between my iPad and iPhone really quickly and really easy to download a recipe from the internet. I will probably never use my (many) recipe books again. It would be nice if I could organise my recipes in my own named main category listings but its not really a problem - I just use "courses" and have subcategories within that one..Version: 4.0

Bye It because .. Is really the Best , Really ..Besides the point I liked it before it updated and changed into a lesser program ; it's still one of the best as an app , works fine : not to difficult to get going with , some nice points and for the moment it's what we got .. Added ; long time user , there's nothing better but could be better with some simple additions .. Still the best like years later ; I do , indorse this program app an I'm a app tester so I wouldn't say it if it wasn't fact .. Thanks ; guys , well like done ...Version: 5.1

Great functionality, if a little dated in styleThis is a great app -really easy to use for both saved recipes and your own. I just find the overall look and style a little dated which makes it a little difficult to read. I would like to see an upgrade of the look into the current century..Version: 4.0.2

Absolutely love it !!!Love the ease in which you can add recipes off the Internet. The way you can click on an ingredient or step of method and it dims so you know where you are up to at a quick glance. Looked at many recipe apps and reviews on google re recipe apps and glad i picked this one as could only ask for multiple timers which was the only feature a few apps had that i thought wow that would be handy. Love having all my favourite recipes in the one spot instead of going to all different books and saved websites on my ipad (which isn't that great when Internet drops out - which has happened at a few inconvenient times). To save time and have a bit of order well worth cost..Version: 3.4

Easy and VersitileAn excellent app for capturing recipes from the web or entering your own..Version: 4.0.7

Brilliant 💖Best app. I have. Well done. Use it all the time. It works so well..Version: 4.0.7

Awesome!Awesome, awesome, awesome!!! Within ten minutes of having this app, I could not put it down. Looking though the numerous "instant download" websites to save new recipes, typing in ones I've already got at home. I'll probably run out of battery power before I finish. Just a thought, would be great to have the ability to use the app on iMac to type in your own stuff. Obviously easier to type on PC than ipad..Version: 3.4

Excellent AppOnly just downloaded this app but already loving. Does exactly what i need it to do. Great value for little money..Version: 3.4

Great ProgramI use this program all of the time. I have not encountered any problems so far except in the beginning I was noticing additional recipes that would show up that I did not enter into my recipe box. I prefer putting in my recipe box what I want and not what someone else thinks that I should have. I removed the foreign recipes and to my knowledge (I have not checked recently) I do not have recipes in my file that I did not put there. This is a great program and I no longer loose the fun and delicious favorites. I love that you can add photos of the recipe and you are able to share the recipes as well. Thank you for doing such a great job..Version: 5.1

New update after all these years!OMG! Thank you, thank you for the update! I have been using this app for years and had been quite disappointed it appeared to have been abandoned. But I had a lot of recipes saved and did not want to go through all the trouble to start over. Besides, I really did like the app. What a great surprise to see it had been updated after all these years! The Image Capture and instant Import worked flawlessly. I am a happy woman!.Version: 6.0.1

The recipe boxI use to love this app….. now it doesn’t work properly. Can’t copy and paste recipes into it anymore. Can’t print recipes from it. It’s turned into a garbage app and it seems that the developers don’t want to fix the issues.Version: 5.1

BrilliantBest recipe app, I no longer have to keep torn out recipes as download straight onto app! Saves so much room..Version: 4.0.7

Impression multipleJe n,arrive plus a imprimer toutes les recettes d,une section, je dois procéder une recette a la fois... A part cet inconvénient je suis toujours satisfaite du logiciel après plusieurs années d,utilisation.Version: 5.1

Best Recipe Keeper!I have used The Recipe Box for years and loved it. But, guess what? They just made it even better! It’s so easy to find and store recipes. Just search for what you want to make, decide which recipe you like best and save it with one click. So easy! When I first started using the app, I looked up some of my very old recipes by name and the magazine name and was able to find and save many of them. Or, you can type in recipes that you can’t find. Over the years I have added so many recipes from magazines, food blogs and friends. The app is also easy to cook with. You can store your recipes in categories so they are easy to find. One recipe can be stored in several categories. For example: vegetarian, soup, easy or pasta, chicken and other poultry, make ahead. They are listed in alphabetical order in each category by default but you can change that with a couple of clicks. The app stays on while you are viewing or using the recipe. It’s a snap to share or delete recipes, too. There is so much more-I can’t write it all in a short review. Just try this app-I know you will love it!.Version: 6.0.2

Awesome recipe appHave used this app going on 5 i-devices now, I've had it for that long! I just love it, the ease of use, the simple one touch importing of most recipes, the easy copy and paste of the rest... Yeah, I'm a huge fan. Have definitely gotten my money's worth, would be lost without it. Also, one of the few apps where each update seems to make it better, and I've never had any sort of stability issues at all..Version: 5.1

Doesn’t workVery disappointed. I wrote all my recipes and worked for a few years. Now the developer has forgotten all about it. No support no updates. App crashes, won’t work properly. The developer is still bragging about developing it, but doesn't have any support. Apple should not allow it in the app store..Version: 5.1

ExcellentVibrant attractive interface. Excellent app. Just what I needed. Perfect!.Version: 3.3

May be going back to RolodexUpdated review (iOS16 version): So excited all the broken features have been fixed. The capture feature for importing works better than ever! I love this app and have not been willing to abandon it. ------------ This is a great app, but it hasn’t been updated since iOS9. Surprised it works on iOS11 at all. Will keep using it, but like others posters, I’m going to have to back my recipes up to print/PDF in case it stops working with the next update. It’s not even worth trying to find another app to replace it. I don’t have to time to build recipe files from the ground up, only to have to start all over when the developer loses interest..Version: 6.0.2

Keeping family recipes close at handI have been using this app for some time now. Great app. The only thing I would change is to able to iCloud back it up so it’s available to me on my iPhone so when the kids call I can send from anywhere.Version: 5.1

Best appAwesome app. Holds all my recipes and can send them to friends easily. Recommended..Version: 4.0.7

My Best Friend in the KitchenThis program is the best! I have been using it for years and it just keeps getting better, in fact, it's so good it doesn't need any thing more! I no longer need to type recipes in, or cut and paste, I can just go online through the app and most of my favourite sites for recipes allow an instant import and voila, there are all the details, including pics, portions, cooking time, in fact everything! I LOVE it :) Thank you for a great program. Ps: It's also brilliant value for money..Version: 4.0.7

So easy to useThis app is the best thing since sliced bread.. I have had a library of books for years, now they gather dust..Version: 4.0.7

My favorite recipe appThis is my go to app for all my best recipes. It's the easiest one to either download or build recipes. I'm even able to download from my PC. I wish I could download load more from the internet but I can bounce back and forth from web view to build. It takes longer but still gets the job done. This is a great app and they are making improvements to it. It would de fantastic if I had this as a program on the computer too..Version: 5.1

Fantastic app!Love this app so much. It makes my huge recipe collection portable so I need never be without it. It's a joy to use. It's easy to import recipes and instantly add your own photos. You can 'grey out' ingredients once you've added them; no more accidentally doubling up on ingredients. You can zoom in on the recipe instructions, refer back to the source web page, share recipes with other people/devices, make a shopping list ... I could rave for hours. Even my mother (technophobe) loves it. It's also got developers who listen to their users. Thoroughly recommended!.Version: 3.4

UpdateAlthough I sort of like the update, I was totally not expecting it. It came from out of nowhere. There are some things that just don’t seem to work as well. Take for instance, the time; prep and total. You start clicking on buttons and all sorts of things pop up. That’s just for starters. Then there are the conversation charts popping up everywhere. However nice they are, I think that they should be allowed for YOU to bring them up. It’s just too many things staring at you. Thanks for listening. Zanna.Version: 6.0.2

Great recipe appI love how easy it is to add recipes. Love the look and everything about it. I have my recipes on my iPad so I always have them with me when we travel. I also love the new and improved updates..Version: 6.0.2

Great! Has potential to be even better!!!!!Love it! But would the the opportunity to download some additional recipes too! Would be happy to pay for these! Looking forward to an update!!!!.Version: 2.1

Great little apApp does exactly what it says it does and does it well. Yes, it could have a few more 'bells and whistles' (such as adding "cooking time" to 'Prep" and "Total" but these do not detract from the app. Thanks ... exactly what I was looking for.Version: 5.1

A fabulous easy way to store all of your recipesThis app is so easy to use, find a recipe from any recipe site and easily import it into your recipe box. It is easy to edit and a great addition to any cooks kitchen. I love it.Version: 5.0.1

Love - Love this APP.Best recipe keeper ever. I have suggested it to many people. So appreciative of the updates. Works a lot smoother now. Still can’t link my iPad to my iphone so that they have the same recipes. Most of them are linked but have new ones that I would like to go to the phone app. So handy when I go grocery shopping and I can look up a recipe to see what ingredients I need. Thank you so much..Version: 6.0.2

Been a whileI have had this app for several years. It has also been quite a while since it has been updated. I like the fact that it is simple to use and has all the features I was looking for in a recipe collection. I’ve used it for my restaurant’s recipes as well as my personal recipes. Well done on the upgrade. Nice job..Version: 6.0.2

Yup, too darned big!Nice enough look, great features, ease of entering new recipes manually, but the fonts are too darned big! I have the font size turned all the way down in the Settings and both ingredients and instructions run off the screen, requiring scrolling. I'd go portrait, but then there's no ingredients, just instructions. >_< Please, add a setting to choose a smaller and/or non-serif font, or cram everything onto the portrait screen. I like to see everything on one screen and I don't need to read it from far away! Otherwise, terrific application. :).Version: 5.1

Love it!This is a great app for organising all your recipes!.Version: 3.2

MA OxonI have used this app for years, absolutely love it, I use it for my cake baking, when ever I find a cake recipe it goes on my recipe book. Brilliant..Version: 5.1

AwesomeGreat app so easy to use..Version: 4.0.7

Great recipe keeper.A great way to keep recipes. Easy to use, have been attempting to do this with a notebook, but was very happy to have found this, as I can now send my recipes to friends..Version: 5.1

Great place for storing recipesThis is a neat app for storing all those recipes you have cut out from magazines, transporting favourite recipes found on the web and writing down family favourites. Simple filing system although I have to file desserts under pastries I wouldn't be without it.Version: 4.0.6

RecipeIMO, this is best recipe book I’ve used..Version: 5.1

Happy Happy HappyI constantly use this app. I highly recommend it..Version: 3.4

Great app but give us the old icon backI love using the app but I want my old icon back! I was different and lovely..Version: 4.0

The Updates are greatHave been using it for years. But the upgrade has made it so much easier. Love that the import function from websites. It works for so many different sites. Also it’s nice to share and update with my friends and family who have this app. Keyboard shortcuts are a plus for manual editing. Thank you so much for all the work you’ve put in this recipe app..Version: 6.0.2

Best recipe app so farWould get 5 stars if you could edit the categories to suit your own/your country's style, and if you could stop the keyboard popping up when cutting and pasting..Version: 4.0.7

Finally updatedI was looking to replace this app 3 years ago since a lot of stuff stopped working slowly but surely. Finally updated and works!.Version: 6.0.2

Top marksTop marks - this is one of the best recipe apps I have used. It is also one of the only ones that links to australian recipe sites. The instant import function is awesome..Version: 3.3

The recipe box - really really goodExcellent app. Does everything you want it to😄. I use it all the time. It's brilliant on my iPad as it provides a stand where I can keep referring to the recipe during cooking. Love love love it!.Version: 3.1.1

DumasLove the app. Easy to import recipes. Easy to enter own recipes, and love that I am able to use the recipes without having the internet. Easy to make own notes on recipes. Able to edit my recipes any time. Adding my own categories..Version: 4.0.7

My Favorite Recipe SourceI love so much about this app, but agree w/ reviewers about keeping the photo on the recipe, don’t like the large font and the fact that it often freezes when I’m adding Type (category) or times in recipes. Would’ve given it 5 stars if above items were corrected. I like having the photo on the recipe AND as you scroll thru’ looking for a recipe. I also wish the source was on the opening listing. I’ve been using this since Recipe Box started and think it’s the best way to keep old and new recipes..Version: 6.0.2

Love. It.It is wonderful. Cannot imagine cooking without it :). I can't even tell you how much it has changed my life !!.Version: 5.1

What the Half-baked App?I’ve had this app for years and have parked almost all my best recipes here. Now it barely functions. Instant import does not work, specialized keyboard does not work, I can no longer view the ingredients and the instructions at the same time, etc. I always install updates. What has happened to one of my all time favorite apps? I’ll be burned if I have to move all my collected recipes to a new app. I tried to email rather than put this in a review, but, surprise, that wasn’t working either. Please, please get this fixed!.Version: 5.1

Must haveBrilliant app!! Love the ease & accessibility of all my recipes. Gone are the stained papers & ineligible recipes kept over the years. I am recommending it to all family & friends, necessity for all cooks, beginner to advanced. It has reignited my love of cooking. Love the tutorials! User friendly for people who are non techno-savvy! Thank you.Version: 3.4

Please update appI love using this app but it has lost so much functionality. Please update..Version: 5.1

Love itEasy to use, particularly like that you can customise the settings to your needs. Only worry is if my elderly iPad dies how can I back up? Can one use cross platform? If I can do that I'd happily give 5 stars.Version: 3.4

This app rocks!This is just what I've been looking for to keep all my favourite recipes together in one place. Gone are the sheets of printed out recipes and all the books have been put on a high shelf! I have typed in favourite recipes collected over the years and cut and paste recipes from favourite websites. This keeps them organized and in one place. Love it🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.Version: 2.0

Just greatThis is just perfect, especially for sharing recipes. I have given this app as a gift to two friends who I share recipes with regularly and they love it too. It does exactly what I need. It would be nice if the background could be changed to a bit lighter or even if there were a range of background to choose from. Maybe seasonal? A conversion chart would be good also..Version: 2.1

Recipe BoxLove recipe box! So many sites and so easy to import and categorise your recipes! Would like to see a couple more Australian recipe sites though:).Version: 4.0.6

Just a great app.Love this program. Easy interface pretax import feature. Wouldn't be without it..Version: 5.0.1

Love itStill my favourite app on my iPad. A must have for anyone who cooks at all! Love, love, love. Unfortunately it really needs an update. Gets hung up frequently. Still love it. A little nervous that one day I may lose the recipes. Was the best by far..Version: 5.1

Really love this app!I find this app so useful. I have been using it for years and have the iPhone app too. I prefer using it on the iPad for both entry and cooking. I use it just for my recipes, but love the bookmark for new recipes I would like try. My only issue with the latest update is that on entry/edit, the text screen seems to scroll a lot while I'm typing. I typically uses it I the horizontal position. Also, this is really small, but the degree button now produces a capital X instead of the degree symbol..Version: 5.1

Just perfectIf you want to create your own cookbook - don't look further. This app simply has all you need. It's simple, intuitive and beautifull interface. Please note that it doesn't have many recepies. This is your own book! Excellent!.Version: 1.2.1

Great App - I Rarely Have ProblemsI have been using this app for several years, initially on ipad, then added to my iphone, currently 6S. I rarely have problems. I am a Cook's Illustrated web subscriber and the instant import works great there. I simply do not have the problems I see elsewhere in the reviews. When instant import is not supported, the copy and paste work-around always works. I like the idea that the recipes I keep there are mine, not an encyclopedia of recipes I will not use and have to search through to get where I want. When I am shopping and forgot to check a recipe for ingredients, I just check my phone. I love this app.Version: 5.1

Recipe boxThis is a great app. Love the instant import and the new updated recipe sites..Version: 3.4
