Great App with amazing customer service

I have been using grocery king for several years. I was using the old app and like others realized it was crashing all the time. I went to the App Store and realized there was an entirely new version of the app available. I spoke with customer service and I downloaded the new version and they helped me get reimbursed for the old version. The new app is even better than the old one.

Good idea, but not there yet…

I was waiting on the pantry feature, which transforms shopping lists and recipes/meal plans in something intelligent and more useful. It seemed the latest update brought just that: making meal plans based on what you have in the pantry; the pantry would update as you made recipes. Too bad that the pantry cannot be filled with product you already have, but only with items you put in a shopping list. There is no database for common products available in the USA market (let alone other ones). There is no crowdsource database either (like in the Pantry Check app), so you need to put in by hand each and every product you buy or have, and if you want to restock, the only way is via the shopping list, not also through the pantry. Clipping of recipes is only possible on the iOS app, not on the Mac. Changing from metric to standard us is not possibile on the Mac app, and the app has seemingly no logic for recipes that support both. Ingredients such as lemon juice are a single unit (1 pack) which make no sense, and doesn’t want allow you to put a quantity in a recipe. You cannot import recipes from a .pdf or a .doc file. So you can forget about importing quickly all your recipes.Long story short: it seems the app was never tested by somebody who actually cooks and manages recipes and a pantry in a home.Waiting for improvements…Ps: did a month subscription to try, but asked for a refund.

Developer Response
Pantry list can absolutely be created without the need to add items to a Shopping List. Just tap on the Search icon on Pantry screen and lookup items to add to your pantry. The entire catalog of 1000's of common products are accessible from Pantry view. Crowdsourced database of products is coming with the next update and will include a way to lookup an item by its name or barcode scan. We have made some fixes to Recipe quantity input with the latest update, please give it another try. Please keep your feedback coming, we are on a very quick pace of development with the app and plan to put out updates and new features faster than any other app. Please stay tuned for more amazing features coming soon.

Good Start but A Long Way to GO

I emailed them today for the 3rd time…Lets see if they answer.I have emailed you 3 times and have not gotten a response yet.I paid good money for this app and at least deserve the courtesy of a response.This app is a very good attempt, but you have a myriad of bugs in it. I switched to your app from the best cooking/recipe app ever Paprika 3 because of your AI use. Let’s get it right people.1. Whenever you scale a recipe, the amounts it scales to are often incorrectly applied.2. When a recipe is scaled, it should also scale the ingredients in the directions!3. The way this application syncs between devices is often confusing. It should let you know when it is synching. OH, and don’t have the “synch” button buried all the way at the bottom of the settings menu.4. Quite often whenever you apply a scale (2x, 3x, 4x. Etc) you have to take the focus off of the page you're looking at and come back for it to be applied.5. And PLEASE provide a setting option for IMPERIAL measurements!!!!! We are American and aren't in England.6. And finally (for now) PLEASE ANSWER YOUR SUPPORT EMAILS!!!!!!OMG!! I just changed my password on macOS Sequoia 15.5 and ALL of my RECIPES except the ones that came with the app DISAPPEARED! That along with all my shopping lists, HUNDREDS of list ITEMS and list CATEGORIES, and EVERYTHING in my store shopping lists, including all of the stores that I had lists for. ARGHHHH.The good news is that I found a setting buried in the gear 􀍟 > Sync Settings > Push All Data On This Device and it restored everything, but I had to spend a half hour arranging everything back to where I had it before I changed my password. Save yourself some grief and not a little bit of panic and don’t change your password.
