    This app is a gem once you pay for it. Adding and saving recipes is a breeze. No complicated features to deal with like other meal prepping apps. You decide what to make, when to enjoy it, and which ingredients to use. Simple as that. No distracting social media-like features or unnecessary tabs cluttering the experience. It just gets the job done beautifully. The downside? The user interface really needs a refresh.

    This app transformed how I manage food and waste. I have ADD/ADHD, and fresh fruits and veggies often disappear from my mind once they hit the fridge. Impulse shopping adds to the chaos. This app allows me to create a shopping list based on the recipes I plan to use. I can plot out meals for two weeks, cutting our food waste down by 80%. Grocery bills went from $500 to just $167. A handy tip is to plan "Leftover" meals. It makes all the difference!

    The app is simple and super handy. It's making my weekly meal planning a breeze. I haven't explored all the features yet, but my experience has been great so far. I'm from India, and I would love to see one improvement. It would be awesome if it could suggest recipes that use local ingredients specific to my country.

    This meal planner fits my needs perfectly. I can pick meals like breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The shopping list feature makes it easy to organize everything I need. Adding recipes from the web is a breeze with the search function. The support team is fantastic. If a recipe doesn’t load, they quickly issue updates. It's impressive how responsive they are!

    I found the perfect app for planning my family's weekly meals. The interface is easy to use, though it could look a bit nicer. Still, it gets the job done. The drag and drop feature works great. When I plan meals, the ingredients automatically go onto a shopping list, which I can check while I'm out. I haven't seen any other app that matches its simplicity and features. It would be nice if copying plans to other weeks felt easier and more intuitive.

    What a fantastic experience! This app has truly been a game-changer for me and my friends. We’ve had it for several months now, and it makes planning meals so much easier. Four of us actively use it, and it really helps keep track of who’s cooking on any given night. I did run into a little problem with the auto-populated meals after an update. Thankfully, the support team was excellent and super quick to help. They pointed out some changes in the update that I had missed. This app started off strong and keeps getting better. I can’t wait to see what new features come next. It’s definitely worth every penny!

    This app is amazing! It's so easy to organize recipes, and having the ingredients included is fantastic. The focus on calories isn't my favorite part, but I get why some people need that for meal planning. I'm autistic, and I really enjoy putting everything in order :3
