Plan Meals - MealPlanner

Simple, which is just what I'm looking for! I love the uncluttered layout and the fact that I can add multiple meal ideas per section, coz I'm currently eating for weight loss and I prepare something different for the family. Just love this app so much and happy to have found it amidst the complicated apps out there

It does the job but it takes time to key everything in. The shopping list isn't great as it doesn't add up items from multiple recipes, for example if you need an onion for 3 recipes, it doesn't add 3 to the list, it just says onion so you have to figure it out yourself. It would be good if you can reorder meals and shopping list items. Everything is just listed as it is added so when you're in the supermarket, there's a lot of scrolling up and down. It's a very basic app.

Ive used this app for years. I like it best because it's simple. Expect there's a really disruptive bug when you tap to edit the recipe's steps, you can't scroll back up to the ingredients list, you have to go back to the meals list to reset it. Also I wish there was a shortcut to swap the meals to a different day in the week.

After the addition of landscape mode, it will allows for me to much easier edit things with having a tablet with keyboard set/locked in landscape mode. thanks! I purchased the pro mode and am looking forward to using this app to help out with meal prep and planning once I get the hang of it! It seems to have a little bit of a learning curve, but it's just that you need to mess around with it enough to figure out how everything works.

Great app! Very simple and easy to use, has everything ive been looking for! Only issue I've run into is in adding meals. I can add as many meals and snacks as I'd like to my day-to-day from the editing menu, but when I press the X to remove one of the listings, it doesn't remove it; the X just turns a lighter shade of gray for a moment. So as a result I have 5+ snack listings for every day that I can't remove lol

In the past, I used the application to generate my shipping list. Then the developer put that feature behind the pay wall. I was fine with that because it worked well. When they made that change, they also changed the shopping list. Now the shipping list does not generate all of the items from my recipes nor does it show the quantities without changing a setting every time I view the shipping list. Absolutely horrible update.

Nice and simple, but there are some bugs. When you go from one app to another it freaks out a little and if you press the screen it scrolls down when you don't want it to and some times I end up accidentally hitting the delete button.. Also just a bit laggy in general. Edit: Would be great if there was an undo option for when you accidently delete recipes or ingredients, as well as an option to add new ingredients inbetween other ingredients, instead of having to add them to the end only.

I do not recommend this app. The app doesn't sync across platforms. If you set up the desktop version, any updates made on desktop will not show up on your mobile device, and about 3/4 of the time any work you do on the desktop will be deleted as soon as you touch the mobile app. Frustrating waste of time. Additionally, although I got the gold subscription (which I regret) the app routinely forgets that I have the subscription and prompts for me to re-buy.

I'm loving this. Very simple and basic. I would love to be able to label my shopping lists for different stores. Having the ability to rearrange the shopping list and condensing multiple items (or being able to do it manually) would be nice. I would also love to have the option to view my menu in a boxed week calendar (month style)/table and export or print for my refrigerator :)

I really, really like this app. I tend to struggle with planning my meals and groceries, I get overwhelmed and just give up (and order in lol). This app has completely saved me and now I actually cook more. 100% worth the upgrade. The ability to create meals, then break them down the ingredients and put them onto the grocery list is so helpful!

I had 3 weeks of menus planned and then one day I opened the app and it was wiped clean! All my menus were gone! Very upsetting because I had bought groceries while planning my menus...so I was left with a full freezer, full pantry and full refrigerator and had to try to remember what I had planned for every item! Now I'll try to find an app that is more dependable.

I LOVE this app. I have been looking for something that is simple and I can put in my own recipes. PROS: Lets you put in your own recipes Allows you to reusable plans so you don't have to keep planning each week. After adding the groceries to your shopping cart for your weeks plan you can customize your cart! You do have to pay a very VERY small fee to get the above feature but it is worth every penny and more. CONS If you are looking for an app that has pre done recipes for you. It's not for you. Does not have an online website that I can use to make input a little faster. Like another reviewer said a grading star system for each meal would be cool.

This is a good app, however it had a few flaws. - Grocery list does not effectively work properly. - Not have the ability to move around meals or copy and paste for another day. - Does not have the option to print out, which would have been an awesome feauture especially if doctors request it. -I had to pay "premium" just to add more meals such as snacks.

I've been using Plan Meals to plan family dinners and grocery shopping lists for the past year. I plan meals a week or two in advance, and it has kept this busy mom from scrambling to figure out what's for dinner! Helps eliminate multiple trips to grocery store as well, as I can include all ingredients to planned meals on my weekly list. Highly recommended!

This is a fairly good app and has really helped make meal planning less of a chore. For me, it's missing one main feature: the ability to categorise and sort the shopping list once it's generated. I would happily pay a little more to have this feature and my review would be 5 stars.

Love the app but in desperate need of an update to fix bugs like not including all ingredients in ingredient or shopping lists and it glitches when trying to edit ingredient lists or when scrolling through meal plan display. It will also take off ingredients for a meal altogether when making a list fo shopping. The only way I get to work is to make an ingredient list and then screen shot it and even then I have to double check it listed all the ingredients needed. Please fix. Thank you!

Wonderful app for planning what I want to cook from my own recipes. Very easy to use. I wish there was a better way to categorize the meals (entree, side dish, etc.) I have listed because it's completely unorganized and hard to find meals to plan in the future.

I have tried so many meal plan apps over the past few years, and this one is the one that fits me the best, by far! It has the structure I need (laid out by week, input for recipes) but the customization I desire (change first day of the week, change name of the week, input your own recipes, or don't put a recipe just write it down). Navigation is easy and user friendly. Going pro is an inexpensive 1x fee. My only suggestion would be to add a widget so you can view your meal plan by week.

Pretty awesome app. One thing that would make it perfect is the ability to move things around on the shopping list. I love being able to generate the list from the recipes so it would be great if I could then drag and drop in the shopping list to group my produce together, meat together, etc.

Good for recipes, shopping list a bit poor. Great that we can build our own recipes and list options for all meals, but the shopping list has lots of duplicates, so if I use chicken in two recipes it says chicken twice. Also there is no way of sorting or categorising the shopping list so it's difficult to use of you're in-store. If they could improve the shopping list this would be a great app!

Though about getting a meal planner before I went back up to university to help budget and make sure I keep on top of eating regularly and this fits that need perfectly. Only thing I would add is the option to type in the price of ingredients in the shopping list to know the total shopping list cost but other than that this is amazing and am enjoying adding recipes.

Love this app! Please consider adding category options for meal items (main dishes, side dishes, or fruits/vegetables, etc.) and an option to plan out the entire month. Date range selection, or import current calendar, would be so great! Currently, I'm renaming each week with the date range.

I love the convenience. My only issue is the difficulty adding recipes. Typing it into a phone is not easy or quick, so being able to add recipes through my computer would be nice. I believe this might be a feature in Pro, so the app still gets 4 stars from me.

Love it. Easy to use. I like that it saves entries and you can choose from the auto populate when doing new entries. I like that u can add pics for each entry. I use to write out meal plans but this makes it a lot easier to do whenever and wherever the mood strikes me.

Hurts my eyes. The load screen is a really harsh hot pink which stresses me out, and there's an option for a colour change but the only other choice is an equally harsh bright green. I can't comment much on the functionality because I can't get that far, I can't bear to look at it. Gentler, more calming themes and logo might be better. Especially for an everyday use app.
