Great for minimising waste. Potential for much more
StinkyPete91
I really enjoy putting together in my shopping list for me in the minimisation of food waste. I have some small problems with portion size (often much larger than required) which isn’t the worst problem. Also small glitches or mistakes where amount of ingredients required isn’t enough for example this week my shopping list said 500g of potatoes and I ended up needing 750g. I would love for them to add calorie and macro information in the future. Overall great app.
Great but wish there were subscription levels

I think this is a great app for getting people more interested in cooking but I really only use it for the recipes rather than the meal/shopping planning or the step by step recipe guides (which again would be great for those less confident). If you use the whole functionality the price is good but it’s a little steep for what I use it for. Would love if there was a cheaper level of subscription that only has search and written recipe access.

Thanks so much for your review and valuable feedback!:) We really appreciate it and are constantly working towards making it better for our users.
Solid little app

Sorted is a great solution to food waste, and meal planning. Its simple and tasty. The app has improved, my only complaint is for a user whos used to traditional recipe layouts it can be a little backwards (counter to traditional recipe layout) but i understand why (they want to guide users). It would be nice to have the full recipe a default layout option and have it structured a little more traditionally.
Excellent Meal Planning

We love it! My partner and I use it every week. It’s been super easy for us to plan a weekly shop and try new dishes. We love that you get a specific shopping list and get to choose your own produce. The recipes are easy to follow - good instructions and timers while you cook. It’s helped us with lowering our food waste and helped us expand the different types of food we eat. Plus it’s cool to have the guys read the recipes to you!

Thank you so much for your 5-star review!! We are pleased to know you enjoyed cooking with audio guides, trying new recipes using Sidekick😀 Means a lot to us!
We’ve fixed a few bugs and made a big upgrade to search.
It’s now smarter at understanding what you mean, not just what you type - so whether you search by ingredient, cuisine, or a rough idea of what you fancy, you’ll get more relevant recipes, faster.
