I found this app ok for finding g recipes, however it's NOT worth the money when you can search the net for free. you're paying for followers. I have canceled my subscription but they are still trying to take money out. I have canceled the actual subscription, not just uninstall the app, yet it is still charging my card.
How do I cancel the subscription for this app? I can't find anywhere to cancel this app.

Do not recommend. I canceled the free trial and was still charged.
I can't even create an account. keep getting "network error."
I signed onto this app because of yourbarefootneighbor. I was excited to try out this app. Unfortunately, I have not been able to use it yet & then I was charged. The customer service is horrible. "Per the screenshot you shared, our website actually just got relaunched 48 hours ago and looks like this one slipped through the cracks." What a sad representation of something so sought after because of an influencer & that of a customer telling you facts. I'm disappointed.
Successfully uploaded 2 recipes then nothing but error messages on every other link i tried form various sources. I tried on different days, times and sources. nothing more uploading. The last one was error on their servers and I just can not pay for an app that does not work 5% of the time.
it won't even let me get past the sign up page and it keeps crashing
won't let me log in
won't let you cancel have tried several times still charge 45 dollars
Stated it was a free app but as soon as you install and hand over your private information, they want announce a charge and want your credit card. Deceptive.
sorry deleted immediately after downloading.... won't pay for apps like this... I'll continue to do what I do and save money!
if you don't pay monthly for the app, the you can't look at the recipes that you saved for later, is that right?
they want access to your contacts, and then they want money. it would be cool if they would tell you that it's a paid app
keeps giving me a server issue and kicking me out of the app
This app does not organize and seems to be glitchy. In the 'recipes for you' section, I have made attempts to delete those recipes and they will not go away. I never added those to begin with. Also, when saving my own recipes, I have to save over and over again for them to save in the 'my collection' section. Quite annoying!
not great, wanted to cancel before getting charged. never saw a way to cancel outright. got charged, need my money back. I did delete my acct. please give money back. very deceptive way to charge someone with no real explanation on how to make sure you don't get charged.
I assumed there was a free option to use it. I should have known better. I won't be using this app with Pinterest is free!
it's so bad I wanna give it the zero but that's not possible so I give it a one.
I cancelled my subscription within the trial. My PayPal account was charged after I cancelled. I've spent days with email exchanges to get refunded. The rep, who claims to be the CEO but won't provide his/her name, refuses to refund me stating I never cancelled and they never charged PayPal. I sent print screens with Pepper the app listed as the seller via PayPal. I've been accused of lieing, altering docs and creating fake accounts just to get a refund.
so far it has tried to force me to save recipe on something I will not eat, and I can't figure out how to delete it. I had joined to follow "your barefoot beighbor" and can't find him to add. only other people using that handle. very frustrating first 5 minutes
get almost all the way in to find out it's a paid app?... well that just pisses everyone off.
well be getting rid of it was using now wants my info amd to pay for it. Will be looking for better app
can't set up asking same questions.
I cant log in and its frustrating
requires personal information to sign up and is spamming fake testimonials all over social media. screams subscription scam.
$30 to use 👎
having alot of problems canceling subscription.
Uninstalled before I even got through setting it up completely....I'm sorry but when an app doesn't give you a choice about sharing your contact list, but demands it to even set up the account. I want NOTHING to do with that app. You don't need access to my contacts, my photos, my phone's history, etc. I don't consent and you shouldn't force me to just to use your app.
there isn't a spot on here to filter out recipes that don't have certain things, I have massive allergies so that kind of sucks. guess I'll find something else
constantly crashes, occasionally just makes up ingredients and steps when the post you upload didnt list anything in the description
it fails to download most recipes the first time and takes three or more attempts
I downloaded this app just a couple of days ago. for every one recipe I've saved, I've gotten one or two server errors. am I doing something wrong, or is it always this glitchy? trying to decide if I want to pay for the service, and so far, its not worth it.
It may be a great app, but they don't tell you about the fee until they already have all your info. They started sending emails, and I couldn't find where to unsubscribe. Just be upfront.
It's great to browse but saving things is a mess. The social feel of the app is pretty good and the UI is also decent. I just can't use an app that doesn't let me organize saved items.
not much too it. very few comments on recipes. its cool to be able to back up tik tok recipes but idk if thats paid or free.
not intuitive for me. I'll save a recipe but can't find it in my saved recipes. often, I don't have a photo when I'm typing in a recipe and therefore can't finish it. I won't be renewing.
good but not great. I love the recipes and the ability to add my own recipes. The problem is when using the filters to search for something, the submit button is too low and it winds up behind the icon on my phone that closes the app. So the ability to filter when searching is pointless.
