Not free

Lame they only let you save 5 recipes from social media on the premium version
As described in the title…
It stopped working
I was able to create a few recipes without a problem but now the recipes do not show the nutritional info which is what I need
Not unlimited

Constantly saying can’t upload.
So many problems. Constant messages above failure to upload even though it has been done correctly and have latest version of app.
Subscription needed
Was advertised to me as free-to-use, and it is except you get very limited access to any meaningful portion of the app until it forces you to upgrade to a paid subscription.
Disappointed
This app says you can download unlimited recipes FREE. So I downloaded the app. I started downloading some recipes and now it is froze. I could no longer download any more recipes until I pay them and they could lock it.
Another life‘s disappointment everything’s a scam!

Literally makes up recipes that aren’t in the link
Paid for 1 month of this app to try it. Sometimes I import a recipe and it’s just makes something up. Tried to save an eggy breakfast recipe and it keeps giving me a yogurt bowl.
5 recipe limit is trash
Terrible app - not free at all
Frustrated
You site is terrible!! When I import a recipe, it’s never the right recipe! The site has too many bugs! You need to clean it up and get it working right. I’m canceling my subscription!
Works As Expected
Works good, but like most apps now days, they want a monthly or yearly subscription. What happened to one time payment and it’s yours? Nope!! Deleted!!🙄
Disappearing recipes
The last 5-10 recipes I thought I saved are missing. I waited for the saved confirmation and checked it was there. Today I open and everything I saved yesterday is gone.
I was told this was free. Nope
Not free
Search not working
Can scroll through and open a recipe but search function not working.
Have to upgrade to save recipes
I was trying to find a good app to save recipes from social medias and this one only allowed 5 saved recipes before it required an in app subscription 👎🏼
Quit letting me add recipes
Cant access customer service.
Claims to be totally free
Claims to be totally free but will only let you download 5 recipes. Then they want 60 dollars a year. No thanks.
Not FREE
I can only download five recipes before I am charged for a premium fee. No way.
Restriction of downloads
After purchasing the monthly plan it restricted my downloads and locked up.
Half the receipts won’t load
Not free. Super problematic trying to load any recipe from social media. Lame.
eh
only 5 recipes can be imported from social media then you have to pay for them, they do not get the recipe right at all and just not worth it
Half the time it doesnt work, often imports recipes wrong
It often gets the recipes wrong
If you try to save from social media and it cant import the recipe, it wont let you save the post
Waste of money

Waste of money
Doesn’t appear to be a free app
It says it’s free, but it will only allow me to download five recipes. That’s not a free app.
Inaccurate translation of recipes from social media
The vast majority of times, cutting and pasting links from social media results in a recipe that has different ingredients and preparation to that which was intended. Kind of a waste of time…
Gotta pay for recipes from social apps
Nahhhhhhhh
Does NOT get the same recipe
It uses AI to pull in a recipe with the same name, but it’s often NOT the right recipe from the reel.
Loved but doesn’t play well with tik tok
I wanted to love but it just doesn’t work well with tik tok
Nope
Had 5 saved and erased 2 and still tried to get me to setup on premium subscription
Counterintuitive
I wanted to find the URL for a recipe I created in order to import the ingredients into Cronometer where I track carbs, blood sugar, and share with Apple Health for an integrated monitoring of my diabetes. I also wanted to see the nutrition information in Flavorish. Nothing worked and help was not to be found. I hate having to waste time looking for what should be intuitive and obvious.
Doesn’t work for TikTok anymore
Such a bummer. Loved this. Since the shut down it doesn’t work with TikTok anymore
Was good until…..
Was good until it limits you to only 5 uploads and then makes you pay. Disappointed that they can’t get revenue through ad banners instead.
No Customer Support
Premium services are not working. Contacted support twice with NO response…
No nutritional update after serving change
The app does very well pulling in recipes from photos.
I got the app to check nutrition information from my current app. What I found was the nutritional information is calculated as one serving for the entire recipe. When I change the serving amount the information stays the same.
I can divide the information by the number of servings. But it doesn’t seem like a reach to depend on the app to calculate it per serving.

Not a free app
I loved this app until it would not let me download any more recipes from social media without a $49.99 yearly subscription. Looking for a new app!
Stuck
Uploaded a few recipes then suddenly a recipe got stuck during upload and have not been able to upload any more recipes.
I was extremely excited at first but too good to be true.

Keeps limiting use
I enjoyed the app but after 5 saves from social media I had to subscribe. So I did because it is super useful. Everything says I subscribed but now I’m limited again on my saves from social media again! This is so frustrating!
eh.
great just wish it was free… I get you have to make money but just wanted to let everyone know.
To many glitches and
Have been using it for 5 months and able to import some recipes and not others
Today it won’t even let me do any. It’s stuck on wanting me to re subscribe but even after refreshing my subscription it still won’t import

So-so
Let me start with the positives: the concept of the app is great and really useful. The nutritional information is very useful. The app is easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. However, I’ve noticed that when I import a recipe from social media, all of the ingredients aren’t brought into the list. This is problematic because it also leads me to question whether the measurements are accurate or not. A suggestion, maybe add an option for the user to add ingredients or instructions in case Flavorish missed something.
Mediocre at best
I love the sharing social media recipes/ videos option, but the ai doesn’t get the recipe right. Skipping tons of steps and ingredients.
The idea is great, but tool doesn’t deliver.

Grocery list doesn’t work well
When I add ingredients to grocery list everything is listed separately and not in any categories. Have to manually go back and change every ingredient to something the app recognizes before it will group. I have a different app that does this automatically when sending recipes to list. Makes it very difficult to shop with list. I have been copying recipes over to that app to make it work. Good for pulling recipes off insta. Not good for grocery shopping.
