Plan to Eat 4+

Game Changer

Plan to Eat has been a game changer for me. I have been a subscriber for years now and find it worth every cent as it makes planning and shopping for the weekly meals a breeze. You can build your recipe library easily as you import recipes from literally anywhere including websites and photos which means you don’t have to type them up. Once you add them to the planner you can then switch to the shopping tab and voilà your shopping list is there for you ready to check off as you go. There are many other features that takes it to the next level, including the ability to add extra food to the shopping list, adding and removing meals to and from the freezer inventory and the optional ability to track nutritional values or recipe costs as well. The convenience of this app saves me so much money as weeks that I don’t use it I tend to spend more money on groceries so I would say it is a great investment and the app earns its keep!

Changed my life

This app changed my life. It’s freed up time for us during the week and $ on ingredients we already have by being able to plan in 10 minutes on Saturday, then go straight to the shop with the app generated list (amended for ingredients we already have). We both have the app on our phones and smash through the shopping much faster than using handwritten lists.

I hate everything about cooking, shopping and food prep; this app has enabled us to minimise all of this while eating better than we ever have before.

What did they do!

I have been using plan to eat for years now, I started on their desktop site. Lately the search function starts searching for your recipe while your still typing this actually slows it all down. Please just make it so that it searches when I hit the search button. Speaking of slow the app is getting slower and slower. I know have over 1000 recipes saved but it should not slow down performing basic functions.
Also when importing a recipe from the internet I hit save and then try to view it, it appears as though it wasn’t saved at all and the app effectively hangs itself with the spinning logo. So I do it again with the same results, it takes me about three tries to successfully import a recipe even having to delete and reload the app. Then later I will find I actually have the recipe saved 5 times over.

I wish you guys would fix these issues! I really do not want to find another meal planning app but the more frustrated I am with it the more that is looking like my only option.
