Skillit: Learn to Cook

Want to learn how to cook? Trying to take your cooking to the next level? Looking for recipe ideas? This is the app for you. Skillit is about giving you the skills to cook for yourself. Behind the app are two guys – Laz and Dane – who share a common desire: to cook quick, easy, inexpensive, and healthy meals to fuel our active lifestyles. We built Skillit because we believe cooking is the single best skill you can learn to improve your life – you’ll eat healthier, save money, and always know how to impress a date (trust us, a home-cooked meal is nature’s most powerful aphrodisiac).

Yet for how much we love to cook, we noticed a troubling trend – none of our friends knew how to cook for themselves. So, we set out to change that by creating Skillit. Our goal was to build a cooking app to teach people how to cook and help them discover that perfect, mouthwatering recipe.

We did this by asking a simple, yet often overlooked, question: what’s in your kitchen right now that you want to cook with? Tell us what you got – say, chicken, eggs, rice, and broccoli – and we’ll show what you can make. Once you decide what you want to cook, we’ll walk you through every part of the cooking process. Need help dicing that onion? Just tap on the step and up pops a video showing you how to cut like a pro. Not sure why your chicken always turns out a little dry? Tips to elevate your cooking are just a tap away. Want to see different spice combinations to keep things fresh in the kitchen? Oh boy, do we got options for ya. At Skillit, we hate doing dishes, so we designed our reicpes to use as few dishes as possible - in fact, many of our reicpes just use one pan, trary, or skillet.

Thanks for checking us out and letting us share our passion for cooking with you. We get irrationally stoked when people tell us they learned to cook through Skillit, so please reach out to us with any comments or feedback. You can find us through all of the usual channels. And if you hate us, we’d love to hear from you too – we’re always trying to improve. Happy cooking and keep on #skillingit.

**12/20/2017 Dev Update** - Just fixed a server issue (had to update our DB driver) that was causing the app to crash a lot lately. Sorry about that everyone! Should work as expected now.

App looked really promising but it DOES NOT WORK. Sign up first of all doesnt work for google, facebook, or email... amd when you skip that page it just keeps "simmering" and you cant continue through the app... VERY DISAPPOINTED

It doesn't work. Login and sign up options all don't work, and if you skip that step, the app just displays a loading icon overlapping an error message. Why is this still up?

Sad wanted to use the app but same thing everyone else complaining about I also experience. What a waste of time since it doesn't work shame looked interesting too. Can't sign up for account no matter what says working and it's just a infinite continuous load but never works. As previous people have said in their reviews terrible.

Great idea, but the app is broken. The app immediately asked for storage access, which I denied. Unfortunately after this, the app got stuck on a loading overlay saying "simmering" and is non-functional.

The first time i opened it it didn't let me sign up or log in and when it did let me in it said simmering (loading), but didn't load anything. The next few times i opened it, it didn't open. I got notifications saying application error.

I really want to use this app but every time I open it there's a problem with the server and the app is continuously loading, its been doing this for a few days now and ive tried restarting my phone and closing and opening the app again

Ger. M. Jan 10, 2021     

I couldn't even get to use or start using the app, it said simmering and stayed like that forever. Tried to uninstall and install, and tried rebooting my phone, but nothing worked.

Ali. S. Dec 3, 2018     

I have trouble creating an account. Everytime I try to create one it just losds forever and never does anything. But overall it's a great app.

Tay. S. Mar 7, 2021     

Horrible, would not even get into the app it just kept on loading and loading I restarted my phone and didn't work reinstalled the app didn't work so I didn't learn anything 👎👎👎

App did not work whatsoever, just loads infinitely. Wastes of storage like this are the only thing that makes me envy Apple, because their curation wouldn't allow a non functioning app through

Mar. P. May 20, 2021     

I used this app for a long time and absolutely LOVED it. Now that it doesn't exist anymore I'm pretty sad, but I hope someday it will come back.

Tri. C. Oct 28, 2018     

I can't make an account because it just loads for several minutes and then nothing happens.

A. G. u. Nov 29, 2018     

Really good app, just wish it would give the nutritional info

Мих. Б. Feb 28, 2021     

Doesn't work. Can't pass the 'Simmering' loading screen

Pau. T. Nov 8, 2019     

Abandoned app. The server doesn't respond, so obviously isn't being paid for anymore.

jes. b. Jul 12, 2019     

I don't know it just kept simmering. And I'm not the only person to complain about this, so I wonder if anyone is monitoring the app.

Gav. B. Jun 4, 2021     

Just doesn't load but seems very useful

Kho. M. May 16, 2021     

This app really doesn't work. I do not recommend it at all!!!!!!

Pro. r. u. Dec 9, 2019     

Doesn't load it just says simmering that's it

Ste. S. Dec 10, 2018     

Could not sign up

Col. C. May 22, 2019     

Does not Load so useless.

Dar. H. Apr 28, 2021     

I can't even get into the app.

Ben. W. May 5, 2019     

will not allow me to make an account.

Mat. H. May 21, 2019     

App is no longer supported, or updated. Developers have clearly lost interest in the app which is a great shame as it is the only app i have come across that caters for people learning to cook! Currently the app will not even open, it brings up an error message, and with no more development on the app this means the app will be permanently broken.

イデア. Mar 23, 2018     

Seems to be nice app! There are instructions for maaany dishes! The only thing I don't like is I can't really sign up. I tried Google and signing up normally bit it just says "simmering" and nothing else happens.

Mik. V. Oct 6, 2017     

Simple, essential suggestions for the beginner, with a sprinkle of lighthearted humor. Ten fingers are definitely better than nine. Thank you!

Gav. M. Dec 20, 2017     

Absolutely fantastic app. Really glad I retried after an apparent server mishap.

Sed. M. Sep 15, 2017     

Wow! This app is great for someone like me who is a beginner and doesn't know how to cook the stuff in my fridge. Thanks!

A. G. u. Jan 4, 2018     

This app is brilliant love it so much but I wish that you could search for a dish

Tes. S. Sep 10, 2018     

Won't let me sign up. It just loads and then stops. Everytime.
