Great app

Love it

What's gone wrong?

Peterkar on

New Zealand

What used to be such a good app has died... Its support team seem to have disappeared also. I moving from iPad to iPad Pro I tried to use Recipe Link to migrate my recipes. Not only did it fall over after receiving about 40 recipes (out of 1002), the Pro version couldn't be restarted. Attempts to contact Support met with a "We're sorry" screen that the "feature", ie support, wasn't available. The much-touted Instant Import feature seems also to have collapsed. Has the developer gone bust?

WOW an app that works!

Extremely easy to use, grabs most recipes instantly...if you can't it's very easy to manually add recipes. Also very easy to share your recipes with others via wifi.

Love this App

This app works very well for me. I put all my favourite recipes here but also those from the internet that I have tried and loved. Easy to send someone a copy, easy to use while cooking. Love it.

Awesome recipe file app

louandrich on

New Zealand

This app is so much better than other apps I've purchased for twice as much money & now not using because I've found this one! Easy to cut & paste from web & on some sites transfers recipes to your file with the touch of one button. Easy to find recipes in your file due to numerous subtitles you can add & great little photos you can take of your dishes. Easy to edit & make extra notes. Fabulous!!

Best app

Easy to Use. Good for picking up recipes or entering. Like the ability to add own categories and themes. Real easy to use on the bench top. Mods in the last few updates have continued to make easier to use.

Convenient to use

Easy to write information. All numbers and signs are right there for you. Thank you!

Used to Love It

MyLittleTerror212 on

United States

I used to love this app. My favorite thing about it was the fact that you could enter a recipe into the app and then email it to someone and a link would be in the email that would automatically load that recipe into their recipe box. I have a few different family members that I liked sharing with and they would send recipes to me but without that link it’s just a pain in the behind. Please put the link back in the email.

Very Useful

Been using Recipe Box for many years and love it! Easy to use and great to access on my phone while shopping. I just hope the developer keeps it current. Would hate to lose this app. Although I think my recipes are backed up, can’t imagine how I’d use them without the app interface. Thanks for a a great app!
