  • On second thought….

    Thought this would be the perfect app to track my pantry. The problem is when there is more than one person and having to monitor quantities, removing foods used in cooking and entering food purchased. It is just way too much work. I haven’t figured out a good way to best utilize it. I do like the recipe feature though!
  • Great Product!!

    Me and my boyfriend use this app religiously. It helps us figure out what we have at home and what we can plan for dinner, all through text and from our separate workplaces. The offer of a lifetime subscription is very convenient, cutting out the hassle and expense of a monthly fee. The subscription is not required and the app is still great without it, but we like it so we can upload our own recipes to the app. As for correspondence, emails with questions and requests are responded to in a very timely manner. My only note would be to add widget options. It'd be very cool to see the meal schedule or inventory on my Home Screen.
  • Takes Multiple Tries to Scan

    Great app but it can take three or four tries to scan a barcode. In checking the barcode numbers, the wrong numbers come up, so I have to repeatedly rescan. Once it gets the numbers correct, the item comes up from the database. Please fix this as it is the only thing from making this app perfect.

    Say goodbye to staring at your pantry and hoping it whispers inspiration into your tired and weary ears. No more will you toss wilted greens or despair over those sprouted red onions on the counter. And expired milk? Never again. First we decided how to label our storage areas. We gave each location an A-F, and each shelf 1-5 (or whatever). Each item was then scanned into that particular location and shelf, so navy beans went on shelf A-2, for example. We did one shelf at a time to keep it simple. Then spent a whole day emptying each shelf in our pantry, cabinets, fridge, freezer, and deep freeze (again, one shelf at a time so it didn’t all melt and spill). Once a shelf was empty we scanned each of the bar codes into the Kitchen Pal app and put it back. Once we got into a rhythm it went very quickly. For the items not in the database (try scanning the barcode again, or try similar package) it took MAYBE 20 seconds to snap a picture and add it. The edit feature lets me go back another day, when I’m bored out of my mind, and update each new food I entered with nutrition information, ingredients, and more. I am skeptical that I’ll ever care that much but it’s awesome to know that I could if I wanted to. One downside (HAH! AS IF!) is that there are so many features you will want to use them all right away. Oh no my dear friends, hold yourself back. The call of the cabinets awaits, and if you get lost in the many details and possibilities you’ll never get done with the project in the first place. Ask me how I know. Eat that alligator one bite at a time and then go back for more later. Another slight downside is it seems to auto adjust the recipes to my family size, when I tend to cook in bulk and all sorts of proportions. It’s easy enough to fix but I wish it just kept the original version. And honestly maybe it does - there are so many neat features I probably haven’t found that one yet. ANYWAYS. Some potential future mods might be to let the app beep when it scans a barcode so I’m not wondering if it worked or not, and this would also entice my kids to do the same. Another might be to connect with AllRecipes for recipe collaboration, because some of the recipes (or at least the associated “ingredients” are … um …. Creative. I absolutely love the idea of the recipe feature though and expect as I get more stuff logged it’ll just get better from here. For now though it suggested green bean casserole made with spicy pickled green beans, red onions, soy sauce, and cream of chicken. We politely declined. It’s a great launchpad for seeing what you have a lot of (especially without realizing it) and what to make. So tonight we decided on cornbread chili pie since I didn’t realize we had 15 boxes of mix in the depths of our shelves and a random giant can of vegetarian chili. In somewhat related news we apparently also have 15 jars of peanut butter and over 120 packages of plain ramen. Our family challenge is to use up everything we have over the next month, and use the pricing feature for our future groceries to track actual usage and waste. We are major data nerds, so usage reports and purchasing rates etc make us swoon. In just two days this has already made our life SO MUCH easier and meal planning SO MUCH simpler. I can absolutely see how it’s going to save us gobs of money by helping us use what we have, keep track of expiring products (I plan to also use it to track leftover usage), and rotate inventory. As a huge family with a ton of kids I used this for a whopping five minutes before buying the app outright. It’s THAT worth it. It absolutely has room to grow, but don’t we all, and I can’t wait to see where it goes from here. That it’s going to shrink my grocery budget in the process is an even better perk. Thanks everyone for such a cool product. FWIW I pretty much never rate apps, but you guys are totally deserving of mega kudos and visibility, and I plan to recommend it to the other large families that I know. Rock on! 🤘

    This is a good and useful program, but there are several necessary improvements needed to make it an indispensible app. There doesn't seem to be a way to personalize the options each user needs and time drags on after paying for what appears to be a "beta" version. Look forward to timely updates! Thanks.

  • Great for Pantry Management; HORRIBLE for recipes

    I can manage my pantry just fine on my own. That wasn’t really the problem I was trying to solve when I downloaded this app. The problem was trying to figure out things I can make with what I HAVE on hand. This app indicated that it specialized in that process. The app recommendations for dishes were complete garbage. I mean they looked like garbage: inedible. I realize this is technically complicated and AI is not “there” yet; but jeeeeesh. I have a stocked kitchen and the first recommendation was “Italian anchovy soup”…. Ummmmm no thanks lol. I wish I hadn’t wasted the hour of my time inputting all of my ingredients into the app only to have it return completely useless results.
  • FABULOUS Pantry Management. TERRIBLE Meal Planner.

    I see huge potential in this app - and I’m so hoping they make changes to improve and I can correct this review. The app essentially has two functions that are supposed to be complimentary. First- to keep track of all your supplies, and second, to help you plan to use them. The resource tracking aspect of this app is beyond reproach in my opinion. The barcode is great, the basic search is easy to use - and the feature to put the amount of each item and/ or how full any given container is is perfect. I honestly couldn’t wish for anything else and got way more than I expected. Now. The meal planner. It’s awful. The suggestions based on what I have already are nice. They give ideas and I can flip through if I feel like it- great! But. When it comes to programing the meal plan for the week? Send help. I tried (as a simple thing to start with) to tell it I would like to eat eggs and toast for breakfast tomorrow. Mostly to see if it would point out I don’t have sliced bread. Okay. I click add meal - and I have to search for a recipe for the simplest food anyone cooks - toast. Okay. I enter toast. I am returned recipes for French toast, mushroom toast, shrimp toast, avacado toast - and somehow airfrier apple pie. The more I scroll, the more out there the recipes get and there’s no button for a slice of heated bread. So - I go to make one. When I tell you the recipe creation process is agony, I need you to believe me. I enter brown bread, a pat of butter. I am forced to write out instructions for how to make toast for other people to read apparently. I have to Google the weight of the average piece of toast, because there’s no option for a serving, a slice, one piece - nothing like that. I add my (measured) pat of butter (1/2 tablespoon is apparently the average pat) to the recipe. I can’t save it without a photo of my cooking (I am not making toast right now), a formal name for my toast “recipe,” and acknowledging that this “recipe” will be published for the whole world apparently. And it doesn’t get less silly the more or less complex the recipe is. Planning on having an apple for a snack? You have to program a recipe for a raw apple with instructions on preparation. As though anyone will appreciate “wash. Chomp. Chew. Breathe, swallow.” As guidance. Don’t forget to GOOGLE THE AVERAGE APPLE’S WEIGHT IN OUNCES also. I imagine this will be the case for every variety of packaged foods as well. The point of this for me was supposed to be saving some of my favorite recipes so that I could quick reference what I might be missing from my kitchen. If it takes me 20 minutes to program in a basic taco recipe, AND WAIT FOR APPROVAL FROM THE TEAM for however long that’s going to take… how is the pantry portion supposed to tell me that I’m out of black beans? Plus, what if I want my recipes to be private? Why should I have to share my grandmother’s sacred cookie recipe with the universe just to have an automated program remind me I’m low on vanilla? It’s SO HARD to use. You need to allow people to put plain ingredients in the meal planner. You need to let people create simplistic recipes that they keep to themselves for the purposes of tracking. People have their own recipes and ways of doing things. You already recommend thousands of things. Give people the option to have their own, private recipes the way they want them before you have 30,000 entries on roast chicken because people like different spices. I’m still going to use this app for resource tracking for now. I hope very much you overhaul the meal section so that I can have the full functionality of this program, however.
