This weekly food planner is a handy tool for both small and large families to manage their weekly menu calendar and meal plan, if you're on a diet (e.g. keto, whole30, forkes over knives, mediterranean diet ...) or not. You can even use it as a diabetic meal planner.

pretty handy. No frills and easy to plan meals. Easily look for recipes and attach them to meal plan. I would like to see a prompt before deleting an entry. Occasionally delete things by accident. An enhancement to the shopping list is to put list into categories, e.g. Produce, Frozen isle, Milk itself, dry food. Option to attach pictures in the shopping list not necessary. Add option to save meal_plans. I purchased the lifetime app and satisfied si far. Thank you.

I made a goal this year to plan breakfast, lunch and dinner but was dreading all the keeping track. I actually got the paid for version of this app and I'm quite enjoying it. I can search for recipes in the app, the app then moves them to a shopping list. There are more features that I haven't bothered to use yet because I've figured out what I need.

The only meal planner app that my fiance and I use. Love that you can have two people logged in separately and it syncs in real time. An extremely nice feature is that you can find your recipe online and import it right into your meal plan. No going back and forth for the groceries you'll need either. Just check the boxes for the ingredients in the recipe and it automatically adds it to your shopping list. The cost per month is less than a dollar so it's completely worth it!

I'm really enjoying this app so far. I've been meal planning for a few years now but I wanted something that might help me with remembering ingredients for my recipes when I make the weekly grocery list. My only frustration with the app at this point (which could just be User Incompetence haha) is that when I add multiple categories to a recipe, I can't search the categories individually. They only pop up if I search the exact order of category I put them in, which isn't terribly useful for me.

So far I like it. Helps my family stay on the same page. Rules are neat, every Tuesday is Taco Tursday at our house. Also, i really like how you can search for and attach a recipe. Makes trying new things and really PLANNING for the weeks meals so much simpler. Recommendation- I wish the shopping list function was able to sync in some way with my Alexa shopping list. "Hey Alexa, add tomatoes to my shopping list in Meal Planner" would be so convenient.

I absolutely love this app. I am trying to cook at home and eat left overs this month. No going out to eat. This meal planner is perfect for jotting down dinner for the week. It's easy to edit and you can also add snacks and other meals. I love that it remembers old meals and suggests them when you start to type. Highly recommend!!!

Love the app. Easy to have morning, noon, a night all decided. I can share with my husband so we both are aware what's for dinner, what needs to be prepared, and keeps us all on the same plate. I love being able to add a link for a recipe and shows right on the page. Time saver. I would say I wish it was more customizable but for the price and the main need for the app, great.

THANK YOU! Looks EXACTLY like what I was greatly needing & seeking!! Simple, not huge or overdone or ultra fabulous (yuck!), but customizable, designed for regular everyday human usage, very friendly, well thought out & more! Which is perfect for me! πππ π π I'll use this along with another app which gives time reminders for when to prep/eat a meal/snack, bc I need that ability also.

I recommend this non-caloric based app for digital meal planning. It's not entirely customizable to fit your aesthetic, but you can set a background photo. The grocery list function takes a couple tries to get the hang of because it's not a true checklist, and it doesn't automatically sort itself by aisle until you set ingredients to their aisle.

Overall, it has been a great experience. I recommend this app. I have been using the app for many months now. Four adults have it installed, and it aids in planning as well as who is scheduled to cook. π I had an issue with auto populated meals after the update, but with the EXCELLENT and timely support, I discovered it was that I was overlooking what had changed in the update. This started out as a great app and has improved. I look forward to future enhancements. It is worth the price.

So far so good. I paid for the premium since it was a very reasonable price. Not everything copies perfectly but that is to be expected. Grocery list option is handy. I love being able to have a list of what is in my pantry. It would be nice if the app could make recipe recommendations based on the ingredients that I have on hand, but that is the only feature that I feel is missing. Everything else is good (not perfect but definitely usable). I am a huge menu planner and this has helped me.

i'm brand new to the whole "cooking for yourself" thing, and this app has been a total life changer! i like that the free version has everything you need for the basics. The layout is simple, and the features are easy to use. Even if I needed to use the premium features, it wouldn't be a problem because it's crazy affordable. After having a hard time finding apps that actually help me organize anything, I'm happy to say this one has REALLY changed that! RECOMMENDED!!!

I had over 20 recipes, and somehow the app left me with only 2 of my recipes. Did it glitch or something? Edit: revising my review because they really tried they're best with attempting to resolve my issue. It was apparently a bug. They were responsive with my questions. In the end, I lost nearly all my recipes, but willing to give this app another chance, as they gave me premium for free.

Writing for the free version. I like the detailed fields but minimal sections for your daily records of meals & shopping list. It even has some recipes you can try out based on filters of ingredients available to you. You can store your recipes on the app as well. The UI is friendly. It's my go-to app for meal planning now. Definitely recommend!

It's wonderful to have my recipes with me at the store when I fail to preplan. I can easily look them up and know which ingredients I need to buy. I love that both my husband and I have access to the app and can check the grocery list whenever we're at the store. I need to learn more about creating the lists, my daughter-in- law loves that part. I am excited to learn that too!

This is a very easy to use meal planner. I needed to streamline my meal planning and grocery list to reduce spending, create less food waste, and reduce the time I spend making dinner. I found a cook once eat twice book and combined it with this app to start planning a month at a time. It's been working perfectly. I would highly recommend.

I've really loved using this app, it makes meal planning super simple. I like that you can see the meals for the week in a list view as well as pull up a calendar for the whole month. Adding recipes is super easy and convenient, I have a lot of screenshots of various recipes and all I have to do is add the picture to a recipe and it will extract the info for you! It's also really nice that you can share it with other people or devices. It's a really intuitive app, easy to use.

Great help! This is almost exactly what I've been looking for to help me plan out my meals for the month, but to have the freedom to go back and change easily. I get so frustrated with pen & paper, having to erase or scribble out, etc. The added convenience of it being right on my phone is also a big bonus! The only thing I'd say is that I wish the font size was customizable, so that I could use shorthand and see the whole day/week/month menu at a glance without scrolling.

I really haven't used it much yet. It's been helpful to me by allowing me to roughly plan out each meal for the week. I put in a few of my own recipes, but you can only save a small amount without paying. ****creators** please consider: I would like to be able to change the date of a meal without re-entering it on another day. For example, I wrote a plan for a specific day, but we went out to eat instead. I'd like to go to the meal and just change the date.

edit after 1 yr: I'm still not using most of the functions BUT dang is this keeping me organized. I'm usually planned a month or two ahead. I'm still learning the app. It's not bad so far. I like that I can see the whole month at once. It would be nice to have a place for a "to-do / prep" list.
