Custom imports no longer work... Latest update... Kitchen sync crashes on iphone 5 Down one star- I now have an iphone 6s AND STILL cannot import recipes

I switched to this app when Chefs Hat imploded. I find it very frustrating that I cant import a recipe that I have photographed. Unless I want to search online for a recipe, recipes have to be entered by hand. Getting to a recipe site that is not on the list is a hassle. There is no response from customer support even though there is a "contact us" option. Im looking for a different app.

**Update**. Downgrading this to three stars. I have over 300 recipes in this and now it doesnt seem to be able to handle the volume. Customer service told me to turn the sync off just to be able to use the recipes I have, but then I cant use the grocery list feature (make the list on my iPad, take my iPhone to the store...). Very frustrating. I love to cook so I have lots of recipes!! Searched for an app for my recipes for a while - this one is it! I just wish it would talk to My Fitness Pal so I wouldnt have to type my favorites there for nutrition.

This is THE killer app for recipes. Better than anything Ive ever used. But it desperately needs support and updating. The share feature would be awesome to have but it doesnt work at all. Making sure the apps functionality remains up to date with latest iOS versions is essential too. If its a money thing, I would pay for this app if it meant more support.

I do love this app and have been using it for years, but would really like a feature where I can simply list meals Im planning for the week- nothing too fancy, i.e., Monday dinner: curried lentils. I also would love a place to create a menu, i.e. List the 3 recipes that I am making for a planned meal for a party Im having next week. This a great place to download and store recipes!

The custom import is not working. If I want to add a recipe, I have to add it manually. The custom import feature is the only reason I bought this app.

I love this app. Makes recipe searching and storing beyond easy. And I have my grocery list at my finger tips!!! Highly recommend!!!

I really like this app. I like how easy it is to pull favorite recipes (or new, interesting-looking recipes) from the web into a single place. I like that I can edit/tweak the recipes to my hearts desire. I like how, if I ever want to cook for more or fewer people (i.e., change the yield of a recipe), I can have it automatically calculate new quantities/volumes for the various ingredients called for. There are just a couple of other organizational features I wish it had, without which I cannot give it the full five stars: I wish it were possible to edit the list of categories. For instance, theres no "Italian" category, which I would love to be able to add. There are a number of categories Id like to add, and Im sure Im not the only one. I imagine users needs in this area are as diverse as the users themselves, and thus the ability to customize how the data is labeled would be nice for a lot of people. I also wish it would accommodate subject headings in a recipes ingredients list. For instance, if Im making a salad, I want to be able to visually separate the ingredients for the salad itself and the ingredients for the dressing. If Im making lasagna, I want to have one section of ingredients for the marinara sauce and one for the cheese filling, etc. I also wish there were a few more cooking web sites that the app would interface with, but I realize that might depend on the meta data, etc. used by the web sites in question, which would be out of the hands of the apps developers. Apart from the first two suggestions I mentioned, my kudos go to the developers of this very handy tool.

A must have for recipe lovers. It works perfectly. Please help- How do I add the app to my Macbook.

The information states that you can change and edit the categories, and it even tells you how to do it. However, it appears as though that feature has been removed. I would like that back so I can categorize them to my liking.

I really like this app. However it needs to be updated to work correctly with the apple updates. Right now (after the Os10 update) it takes all preparation and cooking times and changes the minutes to hours. So you end up with a recipe taking 75 hours instead of the 75 minutes that you entered.

Significant updates are few and far between. App works, but it hasnt kept pace with iOS. Development has stagnated. Sad!

This recipe app is the only one I really like what do you mean easily import recipes from multiple website as well as enter my own. I really hope they keep maintaining it and improving it. Its worked great for me.

Says it can download receipes from websites – it cant. Dont even bother to try. I tried many times on iPhone 6 and iPad and after entering all the info as directed the app tried and tried to save it, but it just couldnt do it. Very frustrating. Boo.

I love this recipe app! You can share recipes easily with friends and family...love the ease of adding recipes you find online. Easy to import your recipes that have been typed in other programs. Love how you can double, triple, etc the recipe with one swipe and all the ingredients are updated to the right amounts. Thanks for an awesome app!!

Cant import my recipes from Pinterest. Tried to copy the URL link and paste it into this app but I cant upload the recipe that way either.. This app needs som major improvements!

The more I use it, the more I really really love this app. Took a while to learn it but very glad it did.

Very slow with any decent size recipe collection. Zero support. Freezes. Disappointing.

It is ok, it needs updates.

Ive had this app for a few years and have used it and relied on it every day. This month it began crashing routinely on my iPad and is barely usable. It is my hope and plea for the developers to provide an update correcting existing problems that I and others are experiencing. Then I will be glad to give a 5-star rating, which is what I would have done prior to the constant crashing issue.
