This has always been a nice simple app, with a handful of key recipes, which is why I used it on a semi regular basis. No muss-No fuss. However, they have added new content, a few (??) new recipes, and many other optional features. Of course you don’t need to access any of this extra stuff to “use the app“, and you still get a fair amount of free recipes, but quite a number of recipes are now locked and require you to watch some advertising or do something else to gain access to them. A handful of my favorite recipes are now locked. And DEFINITELY watch out when you login the first time. The advertising to try to get you to spend $$ on a subscription is so hard to close, my iPhone tried to charge me twice because I didn’t hit the X “just right“. If my thumb had been on the fingerprint reader, I would have been stuck with a big old charge. I support the developers right to do anything they want with their app, but I’m not impressed with the amazing amount of new advertising, which in itself always makes me suspicious of ad tracking, etc. I think it’s time to delete this and move on.

This was one of the first apps I ever downloaded and the longest lasting in my inventory. I used to love it. Even when the ads were introduced, I understood. However, after a recent update, many of the recipes I had marked as “favorite” are now locked and requiring me to watch a video or buy a subscription to see a recipe I’ve probably used hundreds of times. This, I cannot understand and am now looking for a replacement, even if it’s a quick Google search that provides several options, each with its own review. As a very long time user, this is extremely disappointing.

App blatently attempts to trick you into a subscription by making it look like you press 'Continue' after reading help screens when you first open the app... shame on them, BOO! This app has been around forever and it WAS a great 5* app, older reviews reflect that. Now, if you manage to get into the app without being tricked into unintentionally entering a subscription you will find much of the content, including favorites you have marked over the years, is locked and can no longer be viewed without either watching video ads or signing up for a subscription.
