I purchased the app in 2021 and on the latest update the app doesn’t find my user.

I’m so disappointed.

The app is not good
It’s very buggy and I can not access it. Also the recipes and method organization is hard to follow
★★★★ andreaosio 11/8/2020 v3.3
App not showing ANYTHING
I have being using the app since June with no problem, but since Thursday it is not working at all! The screen stays white and the recipes do not download!
I already uninstalled it and reinstalled, and I still have the same issue
I sent already 2 emails to the support team, but no response.
I was loving the app, but it seems I lost my money
★★★★ 3nanooo 11/7/2020 v3.3

Don’t purchase, app doesn’t work!
App gets stuck at downloading recipes and then gets killed. I contacted support and they’re trying to fix it, but for now I can’t open the app. Waste of money that you can’t get back through AK customer support. Reaching out to apple now.

★★★★ Robinblueshoes 10/23/2019 v3.0
Poor app
App crashes a lot and just isn’t very user friendly. Scrolling through all the meals to find the one you want is tedious. Regret buying.
★★★★ Dedunski 9/22/2019 v3.0
Application it too erratic!
Erratic application

SCAM
I paid for this app to easily get recipes for my baby. But I couldn’t even log in or register. Waste of my time and MONEY!
★★★★ araspatt 3/3/2019 v2.7
It doesn’t generate shopping lists
Recipies seem nice. It is not very handy to add one by to the meal planner, specially since there is no way to have a general overview of it. You need to remember what you already add and when. Then, once you succeed, there is not shopping list automatic generation, you need to add the recipes again! It will be really nice if there will be a nutritional preferences quiz at the beginning and then you have meal plan automatically generated, with shopping list. With the option to swap recipes if needed.
★★★★ Ddrakes06 2/11/2019 v2.7
Doesn’t Work
The app is little hard to understand at first. Once I got the hang of it everything went blank. Now I don’t use it at all. I tried again after months and now it won’t exit from an add to buy more stuff. Very annoying. Not worth the money AT ALL
★★★★ Eman_Gh 2/9/2019 v2.7
App contains nothing
Since almost 3 months all the recipes have disappeared!! I paid to get this app and didn’t get any benefit !!
★★★★ sls_25 2/5/2019 v2.7
Can’t even register!
I have three of the books and I absolutely loved them. Had high hopes for this app. Considering the price tag I am annoyed I can’t even register, let alone see what’s on the app. Waste of money! I will stick to the books.
★★★★ lex774 1/5/2019 v2.7
App not working
The app doesn’t work. Everytime I keep trying to log in it say network error. I want my money back 😤
★★★★ ToddiWoddi 12/24/2018 v2.7
APP IS BLANK!
When I first downloaded the app it was fine. A few days later and the entire app is blank. Useless. Not worth the money. There are no recipes or anything. I want a refund!
★★★★ Cece8118 12/9/2018 v2.6
Where did all the recipes go?!
App was working fine until recently. Every section is blank. All my favorite recipes are gone. And it’s been like this for days now. I can’t even register because there is no next or done button after entering all my information. I’m going to uninstall this app. What a waste. 👎🏽
★★★★ Anna Ner 11/21/2018 v2.4

I see this is a persisting issue. Not able to register too and the app does not show any recipes. Just white pages

★★★★ EefaPeefa 7/8/2018 v2.4

Pretty much none of the recipes have photos. Expected more from an app that you have to pay for.

Problem with register
Hi. I just download the app and I have a problem confirming the password of my account. I don’t see any “next” or “done” button so I can go to step 2. The screen stays at Step 1 of the register process and that’s it. Almost $4 for that? Please help. Thanks.
★★★★ Emred1234 4/15/2017 v1.29
Ugh
Showing no recipes!! Just a blank screen :(
★★★★ Shoug Al K 4/7/2017 v1.29
App Doesn't Work
I've tried downloading this app countless times (even left it for about 5 hours one time) and it won't open. It keeps displaying "downloading recipes" no matter how long I leave it to download.
★★★★ JoziPoppy 4/6/2017 v1.29
Waste of money doesn't work
Recipes don't download. App hangs on download screen. For a paid app this is ridiculous
★★★★ Elmeiyah 4/4/2017 v1.29
Not working
The app is showing a message that the "recipes are downloading" and is not responding
★★★★ Designed pics 4/4/2017 v1.29
Won't open
I thought this app would be perfect for starting my little one on solids, however when I try to open the app it states the recipes are downloading- which never do. I have extremely fast internet - google fiber optic, so internet strength is not the issue. I would not recommend this app.
★★★★ MacItalian 9/4/2016 v1.26
Do not buy this app - it doesn't work
I made the mistake of buying this app before I went to the website and read the reviews there. It does not load. I basically paid $5 for a picture with the title of the app at the top. This was a common theme of the reviews online - I recommend heading there before you purchase. Don't waste your money.
★★★★ Sonya McWitherspoon 3/24/2016 v1.24

★★★★ Clarkfamily 7/20/2015 v1.24
Waste of money
You have to wait for download which is annoying but the videos literally show you how to cut and peal a squash or cut a mango that's it ! Seriously you can get all you need from you tube ! This APP is useless !!
★★★★ Beane3455 5/20/2015 v1.22
Loading
The app will not leave the homepage. I can't even login, waste of money for something that can't even function properly.
★★★★ Gamer109876543212345678910 3/23/2015 v1.22
Very disappointed
I bought this app because I had got the Nuk Cook N Blend food maker and needed more recipes. Only to find out after I wasted my money, that none of the recipes are geared towards the food maker. Wish I could get my money back.
★★★★ Ash111609 3/9/2015 v1.22

Please fix the app
Every time I open this app it says "downloading content" then switches to "saving content" & gets stuck there
★★★★ natasha69 10/14/2013 v1.7
Fantastic UI. Horrible bugs.
My wife and I bought this app to help plan meals for our infant. There are critical logic bugs that need to be fixed. For example, if you switch units from metric to imperial, and add new items to your shopping list, the list has items in grams and in cups. The app should standardize the list in one set of units. My wife added one recipe and the app bombed on her. She restarted and went to her shopping list. Apparently we need to purchase 110 onions this week for one of the recipes. Not sure I could eat that many onions let alone our baby. Two examples of many bugs that are prevalent in this version of the app. Obvious no one tested this before releasing to the App Store.
