A Fool and his money are soon partedDO NOT BUY THIS APP. YOU ARE BETTER OFF WITH A PENCIL AND A NOTEBOOK. $3.99 DOWN DRAIN!!!.Version: 2.18.2

Recipe optionsI have really been enjoying planning my meals and have the grocery listed compiled for me!! However, every time I choose a meal from then provided "meal steps" database, the recipe amounts for the ingredients are always messed up! Under ingredients and my grocery list it will say a certain "amount" of something, like a 1 tb of oil, but then when I click on the actual recipe to follow the directions it calls for 3/4 cup of oil. It has messed up my meals because I don't know which amounts to follow and the amounts in general seem off. This just happened again for the vegan lemon poppyseed cake. It's in the oven so we will see how it turns out. I think it happened to my apple crisp too, the crisp part did not turn out. Please fix this problem or make it so acquiring other recipes from other sites will acquire the ingredient list too, this would be SO helpful!!!.Version: 1.7.2

Worst Meal Plan appI paid for this app and am deeply regretting it. It comes with barely any recipes and any recipes I do add from my favourite websites don't work with the app. In order to make this app function the way I want it to I would have to spend hours manually inputting all the recipes I want to use..Version: 2.12

Trying to Eat RightThis app does not have the flexibility to really plan meals unless you cook using recipes-which I don't. While, if you are patient enough to type in your own recipes, OR if you experiment with on line recipes (which I don't)it probably would work fine. IF like me you are looking for a digital chalkboard to plan your week of simple meals in a weekly format that would give you a shopping list section to type in yourself THIS IS NOT IT. Sorry I wasted the money..Version: 2.7.1

Needs improvement..This app has a great interface, the layout is clean, easy to read and also plan ahead. BUT.. actually inputing meal items is counter-intuitive and labourous, and I'm utterly sick of it deleting my meals for weeks already planned. Fix this bug and the app might just be useful..Version: 1.6.2

Data lostThe update has wiped out all the meals I had carefully planned, plus everything in the memory..Version: 2.6

Don’t waste your moneyThis app has nothing to offer. The recipes are a joke and I suspect the only good reviews are from the developer who created the app..Version: 2.19.1

Good app- could use some small improvementI really like this app! It is easy and intuitive to use, and makes menu planning simple. I would like to be able to view two weeks at once, and I would like to see the grocery list sortable by department. The sortable list is on my wish list, but if the app would let you see two weeks at a time I would give this app five stars! And I love love love the magic wand! However- not all my grocery items are showing up when I generate the shopping list :(.Version: 1.3.2

Not easy to useAfter looking at several apps to replace our index card system of planning out what we’d eat for the week I chose this app. Unfortunately it is not easy to use and trying to link Pinterest so we could use the recipes we have there the only way to link it was just the Pinterest site itself..Version: 2.18.1

Don't buy ! Total waste of moneyNot user friendly, and a shame to pay 2 pounds for that.Version: 2.11

Over priced & it's an half baked appI've been having issues with one of the key function of this app, which is enabling you to add a online recipe & grocery list. You'll end up have to add your own quantity and unit for every all the ingredient, which is too time consuming. It just defeat the whole purpose of having this function in the first place. Some of the online recipe just doesn't work properly to be added in as well..Version: 2.7.1

New version worseThe nee version is too un user friendly..Version: 1.7.3

Not perfect yet.This app should do everything I want, but it just doesn't. The ideas are good but it won't always sync from my iPad to my iPhone; some weeks it does and others it doesn't. Also, the meal plan sometimes adds ingredients and sometimes doesn't, from the same website. It seems to lose meals from the whole site when I delete it from a menu - frustrating, especially when I've added all the ingredients manually! Please keep working on this app because it's exactly what I want. Adding a barcode scan would be great too. Now I'm really angry - I've just spent over an hour planning my weeks meals and the app has emptied all 3 weeks records. I was trying to sync with my phone and as I had done last week, had to delete the previous record to reload the data from my iPad. After 4 attempts to sync the phone, all of a sudden everything disappeared from my iPad. I had no other record - it's ineffective to backup (I did email last weeks MealPlan to myself but it can't be opened. This is more than frustrating! I want a refund..Version: 2.15

Sync frustrationI actually like this app it is easy to use and I love having a grocery list. However I find it easier to plan meals on my iPad then sync to my iPhone for the grocery list. Every time I go to do this however it in not automatic. I have to go though settings each time. And even then only half of my planed meals sync it is frustrating. I am sure this can be improved..Version: 2.11

Healthy eating? Not with this app!This is a great app if you either have mountains of time to add every food and ingredient you'll ever need or are going to live off junk food. There are barely any fruit and veg listed as standard food items but lots of grilled cheese etc. definitely needs a bigger list of foods to be useable without a large time investment.Version: 1.6.2

Just OKThere are much better meal planners- mealboard for example. This one is pretty basic and really clunky to use..Version: 1.7

Don't bother with anything beyond fish sticksI was excited to use this app to plan my family's meals. I cook a wide variety of things and have a toddler as well as an 8 year old. I was looking for something to manage meal planning. I reluctantly purchased the app and started to try it out. I input a number of recipes and their associated grocery items. I created a weekly meal plan and tried to create a shopping list. None of my custom items showed up in the grocery list. I went back to check and all the grocery items I input with the recipes had disappeared. Thankfully I hadn't done too much work but I am not happy about shelling out money for something that only works for simple meal planning (fish, pasta, chicken fingers).Version: 1.3

Not worth the money and awkwardI use the app but really only because I paid for it and too cheap to pay for another one. I use it just on my iPhone so maybe on iPad it would work better but since I don't have one I can't do that. The problem is the way the screens open up to fill the menu constantly need to be shifted around and then they close when you trying move them. Just really awkward. Don't waste you money..Version: 2.12

DisappointedI gave 3 stars because I wanted something that I could add links to my recipes from online and it generate the grocery list. However I've added the links to 7 recipes so far and no grocery list has been generated. I liked this app cause compared to others you can print from it. But annoying that I have to enter each item needed for each recipe.Version: 2.15

Does not work!I can not plan meals for the week. I tried adding meals it did not work. Another important thing I expected is searching for recipes or suggesting meals for the day, I have to fill it myself.. It's useless..Version: 2.3

Not user friendlyDeleted the app in less than 3 minutes..Version: 2.24

Waste if time hereI wanted something simple and bought this. What a waste. Had to resort to pen and paper again..Version: 2.6

Not user friendly!Do NOT waste your money on this meal planner. It is not user friendly at all. I am unable to enter a simple title for a meal, such as "smoothie" for breakfast. There's no need for me at attach a recipe as I know it by heart but it won't allow me to write that in. The online search tool is not helpful either. It claims you can use google to search but you need the exact web address to go to that site. There's five dollars I spent that could have gone to real use..Version: 2.5

Keeps crashingThis app crashes every time I try to add to it- very frustrating especially when I try to add a full week at a time- if this was fixed would be a great app..Version: 1.7.1

A good start...This app is a good start, but has Iimitations. I would love to be able to see my meal plan in a monthly view. It would also be useful to have a place to make special notes each day. I would also love to see a place to store favorite recipes..Version: 1.2

ClunkyI really want to like this app, but it is just so clunky. It is missing simple refinements, like in the meal planner providing a simple way to return to the current date. There is also no design consistency, deleting is done in a different way depending on where you are in the app. I guess it is what it is an old app that has new stuff added with no thought for consistency. It also has a few bugs which are annoying and would be simple to fix if the developer took the time to review the app, rather than add more 'features'..Version: 2.4.1

Very difficult to use - waste of moneyI spent ages typing in my meal planner into my iPad to realise it does not sync properly with the iPhone and the app is very difficult to use on the iphone. I don't usually comment on apps but this one is useless..Version: 2.2

Not User FriendlyI was very disappointed by the lack of instructions and the bad design. The program is not user friendly and has many glitches. I’m disappointed that I paid money for this and I can’t get it back..Version: 2.19.1

CopyHOW?.Version: 2.19.1

Not worth the money!Very basic app, hard to modify the meal plans, regret spending money on it!.Version: 2.9

Was a great app till the updateThis no longer shows on my apple watch. This was one off the best features as I didn't have to have my phone out while shopping. I could just look at my watch to see my shopping list. No longer works with the apple watch. SORT IT NOW OR I WANT MY MONEY BACK..Version: 2.6

No updates for almost two years!It appears the developer has abandoned future development/bug fixes/enhancements on this app..Version: 2.19.1

Not worth the moneyDoesn't link to online page in notes. There isn't that many functions to this simple app they should all work.Version: 1.3

Worst purchaseWaste of money and time. I thought the app allows me to drag and drop evrything from the web. It does that with meal titles but the ingridients, i have to input manually. And I have to exit the screen to see the ingridients from the web, go back to meal planner and type a few from what I remember and so on and so forth. And how can I type up my own recipe? Get this sorted or pls give me my money back. Thnks.Version: 1.6.1

Don’t waste your moneyWhen I saw people say it was difficult to use next to other reviewers that loved the app, I figured perseverance and tech experience was enough. It’s not. At some points, the entry field for grocery lists is cut off of my screen so I can’t edit it. You type in a meal and it looks like they have it in the database. You click the predicted food and nothing happens. This is not easy. At some points it’s literally impossible. There is no phone number just an email and FAQ. I wish I could get my money back. It’s $4 dollars, but four bucks for junk is a racket..Version: 2.19.1

Doesn't workDon't buy. Can't edit categories. It won't open when you try to select various things like ingredients, categories, etc. to actually be able to make this functional. And given they charge for a non functioning app, that's a joke. I hoped the newer positive reviews meant this was ok, but sadly it doesn't work. Working on somehow getting a refund as this is horrible..Version: 2.19.1

Meals not feeding to grocery listI have a number of meals listed this week on the planner with the ingredients not feeding through to the grocery list! Wet annoying when you spend time to list all ingredients for the meal for the sole purpose of the grocery list!.Version: 2.19

Not what I paid for.This app is buggy and doesn’t work well. I’m very disappointed. I thought there would be a calendar type of interface like the one on the FallDaySoftware website, but it’s just a list of meals and every time I want to repeat an item I have to go through 5 steps to do so. This is not what I thought I had paid for..Version: 2.19.1

BasicOK for planning meals. Like the wizard. But shopping list doesn't work. ( Still using IOS 7).Version: 2.3
