4.6 out of 5
Don’t waste your money.

Not only did they cancel mine after I canceled but they still charged me and Apple isn’t giving me a full refund. It’s all AI generated. There’s no sides to choose from. It’s not worth the 7 something a week.

Not worth it

Potto is pay to use. Seemed like it had good potential but paying almost $30 per month for an app that uses AI to do the work seems pointless. You could use ChatGPT or any other platform to do the same thing. On top of that, when I entered that I only wanted to spend $50 per week (to feed just me) it kept prompting me to up my budget. The whole point in using it is to find out how to stretch the budget I have. Maybe they’ll figure it out later and improve the customer experience

Ai generated everything

Potto has potential, but you have to pay to do anything, and when I didn’t when I reopened Potto I had to redo the questionnaire like it forgot everything I already said. Plus it’s pretty obvious everything in it is entirely vibe coded without much attention to detail :(

Not worth it

Immediately deleted after realizing they want to charge you $30 a month or 7.99 a week for this. I get that people have to get paid but also it’s not worth it for a bunch of AI meals. Rather just do hello fresh and be don’t with it

7 a week?!

Not my fav app

Charging $10/week is psychotic

Edit: I just want to say THEY JACKED UP THE PRICE!!!!! All the reviews FROM THIS PAST SUNDAY SAID Potto COST $7/WEEK AND NOW IT’s $10/Week. FOUL AND DISGUSTING.

I wanted to use Potto, but charging $10/week is psycho and wayyyyy too expensive. And the fact that that’s the only option is such an awful business model. Definitely a man who created this lol. I understand that they need to make money, but I (and I’m sure many many people) would lowk prefer ads with an free experience rather than charging $40/month which is not feasible for majority of people (sorry it’s not argue with the wall). Potto is not accessible and it’s screwed up it’s kept behind a paywall. Want a good review? Create an app EVERYONE can use. Such a waste.

Eh…

It’s kinda cool I can see where they’re coming from. But you can only get dinner ideas. And the ingredients for the shopping list is always just salt and onion powder… like these are terrible recipes..

Scam

So ridiculous. You put in all the information and when you’re finally ready for some recipes, they make you pay. So stupid and misleading. Stop doing this!

Predatory subscription prices

The amount they ask for each month is predatory. They expect you not to pay attention to them charging you an arm and a leg for AI slop. I tried to warn others on a TikTok that was clearly an Ad but not marked as one (the whole profile was just videos about promoting Potto). The creator only deleted my comments. Do not get sucked into their pricing model.

Cheap AI Slop

It’s a cool idea. I was so excited to download Potto specifically because it advertises a feature of being able to choose which cooking items you have in your house. This is helpful because I have no oven at the moment. I turned off the option for Oven AND Hob/Stovetop. Still, it regenerated two recipes starting with “Preheat oven to ___”. AI slop for profit really has taken over.

BOT RATINGS

no one reviewing has given five stars? you’d think with so many ratings that at least one person would write a review but no. Potto is all ai and you have to pay a TON a month to use. just use chatgpt if you really want to for free. don’t bother downloading this money grab app.

Expensive

Literally $40 a month.. no other option. Not worth it.

Disappointed

Decided to finally try it out after seeing ads for it everywhere and I was very disappointed. It’s a good concept and could be helpful but it doesn’t let you add multiple stores at once. Also the pictures they use to display what you make is A.I generated. Makes me question the quality of the recipes. It’s also subscription based which I think is kind of crazy.

Cool idea, not worth the price

$10 a week is absolutely insane. Cool idea, way overpriced for it being generated by AI

Too Expensive

App seems pretty cool, but there is no way I'm paying $10/week for this. I'd consider $10/month. Just silly.

Ok

I love that they include low fod map diet.but once you follow everything out Potto has a 3 day free trial.after that it requires payments. I feel like it would be an amazing app besides that.

Not for picky eaters

Potto itself works great and seems easy to use. My issue with it is that it doesn’t have any place to mark off things you won’t eat. It has the basic dietary restrictions. But I won’t eat peppers and the first things I get is stuffed peppers and stir fries. And the swapping feature just gives me more and more peppers. I should be able to mark off things I will not eat so it doesn’t show them again.

Trash AI Slop App

It suggested fried rice as dinner with nothing else, and egg and bean burritos... like girl. It will go over budget if it can't manage to think of things within the alotted filters. Great app concept TERRIBLE execution. Not to mention to actually use Potto you pay $7 WEEKLY for something you could do for free using chatgpt... don't water your time here.

Please include more food allergies!

As someone who has alpha gal (red meat allergy) there is no option to include my allergy, making Potto insanely hard to use

Love so far, but needs more features!

Love Potto, has so much potential! I would love to have options to select which meals you want generated for the week (breakfast, lunch, or dinner). Also, would be great if you could add an overall option to switch to generating bi-weekly or monthly meal plans! Some of us don’t want to plan and grocery shop every single week!
