★★★★ Z L 12/8/2025 v1.2.4
Downloaded it but couldn't get past main screen (even as guest). Says servers are down, try again later. Will update this review if I get a response when its up and running and I can try it out fully.
★★★★ Kerry Needham 10/25/2025 v1.2.4
I down loaded app set it up and paid money to use it for a year. I have never been able to use this app. Just says “something went wrong”,when trying to get into the app.I Can't find away to get in touch to alert them of the problem.
★★★★ Raven Ambrose VII 10/21/2025 v1.2.4
it doesnt work, wont me sign up or load
★★★★ Maliya Watts 6/22/2025 v1.2.4
after one day the app shut down and nothing even loads, I uninstall it and now I can't even sign in
★★★★ Shaun van Niekerk 6/2/2025 v1.2.4
does not work at all
★★★★ Alex 4/3/2025 v1.2.4
cant get past login screen. no matter what options i select, i get a pop-up error "something went wrong." is it because my email is a yahoo account??
★★★★ Matt Tait 3/16/2025 v1.2.4
Recipes I would like to use are locked, have to pay to see them - Worthless, Uninstalled
★★★★ Hobo Joe Thatsit 1/21/2025
I am rating this a 1 star because I can't actually use the app anytime I try it says error and then winter let me in to look at the recipes
★★★★ César V 8/6/2024
Paywall fest.
★★★★ James Mulheir 12/9/2023 v1.1.0
App keeps stuttering and freezing, which I could put up with if the developers didn't try to get me to pay for any of the half decent looking recipes. It's hard enough being vegan without this nonsense.
★★★★ no no 6/19/2023 v1.0.7
Barely any free recipes, to get at the other blocked 99% you have to pay quite a large subscription amount
★★★★ Helen Pitt 5/15/2023 v1.0.7
The app does not load unless I uninstall it and reinstall it. Every time I leave the app I have to go through this procedure. I paid £19.99 last week for a one year subscription and I have requested a refund.
★★★★ NITIN KUMAR 5/9/2023
I hate subscriber
★★★★★ Jon Miles 11/14/2025 v1.2.4
I downloaded this app some time ago and have the paid version. I like the app its easy to use and i love the recipes, however... out of the blue I kept getting the message "something went wrong" my phone and apps are all up to date so i deleted the app and my subscription for a few weeks then re download and repayed my subscription again the app worked perfectly for a short while now I have the same message "something went wrong" or "server down" great app and recipes WHEN IT WORKS .
★★★★★ M.A. Sturley 4/3/2025 v1.2.4
Response to vegan bowls: Maybe there aren't enough recipes altogether to justify paying for it. Perhaps it would make sense to keep the free:paid ratio the same but increase the total # of recipes. •••• First review: If this is a free recipe app then a trailer is a free movie. The "Mains" section has about 150 recipes, of which 9 are free. There's also no way to search for free recipes and they're scattered randomly throughout so you have to scroll through all the recipes to find the free ones.
★★★★★ Thomas Hordijk 2/14/2025
75% behind paywall and using packages as a metric in recipes is just bonkers. Waste of time
★★★★★ p a t r i c k royce 7/19/2023 v1.0.6
Not a free app! 😁 Do advertise as paid only app ~ not for app to be available from free section 😅
