Another paying app for recipes? When I'm a subscriber to the guardian? I don't think so
Great recipes! Enough for vegans and vegetarians. I get the newsletter too, but when I click on the recipes in the emails, I go to the app store and not the app itself. then if I open the app from the app store I don't come to the recipe that I was interested in, just to the main opening highlighted dish. I can't click through from the emailed links to the actual recipe, and sometimes I then can't find it. what's the point of having links in the emails if they don't work?
Excellent resource that brings together great recipes and wonderful cooks & writers. Highly recommend it
really enjoying using the app. Plenty of inventive recipes with everyday ingredients.
very positive
easy to use, fantastic recipes!
