ZWILLING App Reviews

by Bosuda

I love the vacuum sealer, but ZWILLINGApp is close to worthless. I can’t scan anything, I can’t select what storage container I am using, and I can’t specify whether the product is in the fridge, freezer, or pantry. Basically is just let’s me know what I have and how old it is. So still useful, but very annoying.

Just migrated to the “new” app and added my groceries into containers and scanned them into ZWILLINGApp . The use by date is populated based off the apps suggestion. By the time I was done adding all items the dates had changed all over the place. I had two separate containers of mushrooms added at the same time. By the time I was finished. The use by dates were completely different for both containers. Fix ZWILLINGApp , the features promised with this product do not deliver.

It's cool on the surface when you first start using it, but once you try to put it to work the limitations come out.

By far the biggest issue is when you store a food item, there's no way to store information about the item. They give you an optional description box but it doesn't work if you enter in more than a sentence because it will only scroll the very first time you create the item and enter the text. After saving, it will not scroll anymore. Storing pancake mix and wanna save the instructions? Not gonna happen. Storing protein powder and want to save a picture of the nutritional facts for reference? No way to do that. Even if you made it the item photo, that can't be enlarged bigger than a thumbnail so it wouldn't be readable. If you do use their description box, make sure you hit save before tapping anything else or it will delete everything you wrote - though sometimes it will do that anyway. Right now the only way reliable way to save information about an item is to save photos or text in a separate app or location somewhere which kind of defeats the purpose of the whole "store the info using NFC" idea because the only useful information from scanning is the expiration, which you have to calculate yourself or use the default 2 years.

When you save food in a bag, they give you the option to select the type of food and location (freezer, fridge, pantry, etc) that's in the bag and they'll determine the expiration using that info. While the food options they give you are super limited right now and need to be expanded, this is a great feature. The NFC dry food storage needs the expanded version of this feature, otherwise without this and the ability to add more product details, ingredients, photos, nutritional info... I really don't see the point of the NFCs at all which would be a disappointing missed opportunity for something great.

The ability to have recipes suggested based on what you have is so brilliant and reminds me of myfridgefood where you could input the food you have in the website and it would tell you all the things you can make. That itself was an awesome idea, then to connect it to Fresh and Save? Could be such a game changer! But unfortunately it really doesn't work at all and most of the "meals based on what you have" are composed of 90% ingredients I do not have. Another missed opportunity.

The concept behind ZWILLINGApp and the whole Fresh and Save system is so awesome and it has so much untapped potential, but in its current form it's a marketing gimmick. I really hope the Zwilling team sees that potential and fixes this in the next update.

ZWILLINGApp isn’t linked for logging in with linked Gmail - makes it useless with a linked account

The system with the vacuum sealer is not sealing food in freezer adequately, the bags always loose some vacuum, which doesn’t happen with pantry items.
Also, ZWILLINGApp needs improvement. It’s not intuitive and can’t be customized. The item list that are suggest are not sufficient and pretty basic, one should be able to customize those. Overall it’s ok, but there’s the risk of not using ZWILLINGApp because it’s not that intuitive.

This is a great app. I really like how it notifies me of items that’s about to expire. It helps with meal planning too, when I can view what all I have sealed in a list.

Would be nice:
Keep my previous labels, so I don’t have to type out Strawberries every week

Give some caution on things Ex: Grapes vacuum in a bag is not okay, they will get smushed and deformed. I did not know this 🤷‍♀️

I’m not sure how the recipe section is supposed to be helpful with the “items I have”. It doesn’t actually use the items I have but give generalized recipes on broad categories. Ex: You like vegetarian meals and you have a veggie bag in the freezer, so try this tasty recipe…I just have broccoli and the recipe suggestion doesn’t list broccoli.

ZWILLINGApp is clean, simple and easy to use. The ability to adjust ingredients quantities in the recepies is a great idea - I love it

I love this product! I love fruits especially strawberries blackberries raspberry. No more moldy fruit after a day or two. Now it’s been a week and it’s still fresh.

Great App and Great Product. Helps keep the pantry and freezer organized. Great for recording the stock and freshness of food storage.

Por los momentos nos ayuda a gestionar espacio. Y con la ventaja de aumentar el tiempo de conservación
