★★★★ k Ritadel 9/19/2024
This app charges you automatically monthly without your permission as soon as you download the app on your phone and does not make it easy for you to cancel anywhere via the app or webpage.
★★★★ Alexa Blizzard 8/28/2024
App is 100% unusable without a monthly subscription
★★★★ Martin Gojcaj 1/26/2024 v1.1.4
It's pay to play, all these recipes are free on YouTube, don't waste your money.
★★★★ Katharine 1/1/2024 v1.1.4
No visible or easy how to cancel the subscription. Waiting to hear from the author otherwise this will need to be reported for fraud
★★★★ April Bowman-Morris 6/16/2023 v1.1.2
I've brought an Indian recipe book from my little food critic and also paid for this app for just over a year. However I wasn't using the app anymore and couldn't find a way to unsubsribe. I deleted it and was still being charged. I privately messaged my little food critic Instagram to ask how to do it and the message was read and not answered. I then asked on a Instagram post. They replied and I have now been blocked for asking a question. No misleading information was stated just a question.
★★★★ Danijela Greydanus 5/8/2023 v1.1.2
Useless app.
★★★★ Gillian Fortune 4/18/2023 v1.1.2
Can't get the recipes without paying A monthly fee. Misleading
★★★★ K L 10/4/2022
Cant view or do anything without a subscription
★★★★ C Franklin 8/24/2022 v1.1.0
You can download free but to do literally ANYTHING on the app you have to pay a monthly subscription.
★★★★ Holly Ariston 8/23/2022
Free App, but charges for EVERYTHING
★★★★ Belle De Catherine 7/17/2022 v1.1.0
Must subscribe and payy for it first. Dehh.
★★★★ Yeeling 7/14/2022 v1.1.0
Not free
★★★★ I S 6/19/2022 v1.1.0
Monthly subscription once you download the app... a bit misleading on first view. That being said, I would be happy to pay the £1.49 a month but you can't get to sample the app to see if it is something you find useful. I would be more obliged to sign up, had I seen how the app works, and whether it is user friendly. Even if the recipes where blurred ...
★★★★ Christine Vivier 5/12/2022 v1.1.0
Paid app, zero features available without paying a monthly fee.
★★★★ Heidi H 4/11/2022 v1.1.0
Saw your Instagram and wanted to see the recipe.. but not gonna pay for it thats ridiculous
★★★★ Danielle Cheng 4/11/2022
Downloaded with the assumption that you would be able to have some access to recipes and such. Wasn't able to do anything with the app. Every menu option had a pop up screen to subscribe. Seems to be better off to be a paid app instead.
★★★★ Angeliki Wildmist 3/28/2022
Monthly subscription fee to be able to view anything. My son is a difficult eater so wanted to have a look at some recipies to see if its something he would entertain but cant view ANY unless you subscribe. Uninstalled.
★★★★ Aanchal Gupta 3/12/2022 v1.1.0
When u click on the subscription.. the money was cut on the account.. bt app didn't work.. useless app..fake app
★★★★ Tiarah Corasol 1/29/2022 v1.1.0
When I click on the subscribe button it doesn't proceed so I can sign up. Nothing happens, I am not able to use this app at all
★★★★ Linsay Maier 1/27/2022
The app is free, everything else you pay for
★★★★ Krutika Sonawane 1/22/2022 v1.1.0
Not use full app
★★★★ Jasmine Karacay 1/21/2022 v1.1.0
It doesn't let you to see anything if you don't pay for it . I don't wanna pay for something that I don't even know what recipes I am going to receive.
★★★★ Chahat Mahajan 1/7/2022 v1.1.0
This app is chargeable...(expensive)
★★★★ nurul yuhana 11/26/2021
Kene bayar oi!!!
★★★★ Nipho Anyumba 11/12/2021 v1.0.9
You have to pay before you can access anything on the app. What if you dont like the recipes. Atleast put a few sample recipes for free
★★★★ laura moniz 9/17/2021 v1.0.6
You can't open anything unless you pay for it. NO Free recipes at all.
★★★★ Andrea N. 9/7/2021
The app is for free but you must pay to use absolutely everything? In that case just make the app price already. I wouldn't bother in download it. Pitty.
★★★★★ Ed Edwards 8/15/2025
don't like you have to pay for it
★★★★★ seema nalan 11/14/2024
You need yo purchase every single things in the menu given at the spp if before you access... hmmm
★★★★★ Helena Kung 4/10/2024
It was okay. The recipes themselves were easy to follow.. The reason I gave 2 stars is the app and website do not have easy options to cancel. And judging by some of the reviews, they don't even tell you how to, they just tell you to Google it or very vague, like they expect you to figure it out yourself. I did log into my pay pal cause that's how I was paying for it and it gives you an option there to cancel. Hope this helps
★★★★★ Maria Nambo-Palmeno 2/7/2024
Just make the app a charge before even downloading. ITS NOT FREE
★★★★★ Jessica Neil 4/27/2023
Entirely subscription based with zero free content to try before subscribing. I generally dislike subscription based apps, more so when you can't test any content to see if it's your vibe before buying. Uninstalled without subscription so can't truly rate the app content.
★★★★★ Ash Ash 11/5/2022
You literally can't look at anything past the first home page without paying a subscription fee.
★★★★★ K Ron 10/16/2022 v1.1.0
The app is fine, I can see it could be helpful to some. For me, I just found all the recipes required too many ingredients for baby foods. They were just unnecessarily overcomplicated, also really heavy on coconut oil. One recipe required 4 tablespoons just for 8 bars of a breakfast slice - that's way too much oil for one portion of baby food. I prefer to use the recipes on instagram with other users where they use 5 ingredients or less. Really simple recipes.
★★★★★ Megan Henley 3/28/2022 v1.1.0
Should have to pay to download app if you're just going to make every feature cost a membership fee
★★★★★ monisha mohan 2/13/2022 v1.1.0
I bought this app but it's giving me only 20-30 recipes and not more. Couldn't link my account in this. Help please!
★★★★★ Agyei Sylvester 12/6/2021 v1.0.9
Good
★★★★★ Danielle Clarke 11/4/2021 v1.0.7
