  1. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Ads Ads Ads. Not usable. Ads pop up every 5 seconds. Was once a good app. This is an app I paid for long ago.

  2. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Can’t download. I paid but app doesn’t download What’s the problem?

  3. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    0/3 for recipes made from this app. I have followed each one meticulously and they really turn out poorly. Just use not "healthy" ingredients and your meals will turn out much better.

  4. ★★★★a needed feature is missing

    App doesn't allow ingredient restrictions. There is no option or setting to filter out specific foods, like dairy or nuts. This makes it not very useful for those of us with food allergies.

  5. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Makes no sense. Why are recipes with meat and fish listed as vegetarian? For an app that is so highly rated, this is absurdly stupid

  6. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    False Pricing. So, here is my issue. I was charged $3.99 for this app, however upon opening it up, I discover that I am unable to use all the features. You are forced to pay MORE money in order to add items to your own meal plan and shopping list. Why you charged for an incomplete version. Very false pricing.

  7. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    They call Arabic foods “israeli”. Why are traditionally Arabic foods called “israeli” inside the app?

  8. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Was okay. Used to love this app. But lately it’s become glitchy and not very stable. Easier to just watch on YouTube.

  9. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Scam. Says free but after I downloaded it I started getting charged 5 HOURS LATER while I was asleep for downloading it. Refuses to refund too. SCAM

  10. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    DONT buy this app. Very disappointed. All that’s included when you buy this app is recipes you can find for free online. You can’t get a meal plan without paying extra, you can’t even make your own meal plan without paying extra.

  11. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Blog said this would integrate with Health app, but it didn’t. I was expecting from the app developer’s blog that this would integrate with the Health app so I could have my macros reported there. Didn’t work, but another app did right away.

  12. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    What about the money I paid a few years ago?. I was an original supporter of FMC back when it was coming up. I PAID for the original pro version of the app before there was a subscription plan, to get the features. I even jumped on the MPP app because I liked what you had to offer. But I noticed I wasn’t using the MPP app as much as I wanted to because of life. I went back to using the original FMC app for recipes but noticed that now I have to pay a subscription? I don’t think this is fair to people who have supported you from the start. You should “grandfather” original supporters like me who already paid for the features in your app. I want to give you guys 5 stars, but honestly this just feels like a cashgrab and I’m insulted.

  13. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    In app purchases. Dumb that when we were first to buy, and we were promised that pay once and get all the app benefits, yet this is a lie as we now have to pay for an upgraded version of FitMenCook pro. I unfollowed this guy on Instagram and I definitely won’t be supporting or recommending to anyone.

  14. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Macros. Macros aren’t realistic. Very disappointed. This is probably the most useful information.

  15. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Requires in App purchases and upgrades. You won’t be able to create your own meal plan without upgrading so basically all this app does is provide recipes and a few pre made meal plans

  16. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Recipe is not good. The recipes look good, and are probably nutritious . However, they simply do not taste good.

  17. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Six items is far too less. Six items (before paying for a premium) is far too less for an app that already charges me 4$. Just a few comments below, the developer claims that this app will stay subscription free, but this is basically what they’re doing. Six items isn’t even half a week worth of meals.

  18. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Pay to pay to use the app. I paid $5 for this app 2 years ago. Now I must put a subscription to use basic app functions. Hence pay to pay to use. Pretty dumb.

  19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Not user friendly!!!. This app would get a FIVE STAR if it made the necessary adjustments to its Meal Plan. First off, the Meal Plan feature is TERRIBLE!!! It has three features: Use Calorie Calculator, New Blank Plan, and Pick Your Calories. If you use either Calorie Calculator or Pick Your Calorie. When you’ve input the information you’re give a meal plan that YOU CAN NOT ADJUST!!! You’re stuck with what you’re given. I have to delete whatever meal they gave me. Look for another meal out of HUNDREDS. Which I CAN’T filter. Therefore leaves me with the only alternative to not just go off whatever I feel like making or just use another app. The New Blank is worse!!! It’s the same thing. Only difference I have to manually choose out of the HUNDREDS of meals my whole week. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, plus snacks. Bro this is time consuming. I’m already busy throughout the day. The last thing I want is to manually pick my meals out of a large meal book. Let alone not be able to adjust a created one. Until they fix that feature it gets TWO STARS. This could easily be a FIVE STAR app. FIX ASAP!!!

    Not what I was Told. I got this app not only for the recipes, but read that there was a calorie tracking tool with this app/purchase. It looking through the app I only see meals with calories but not a calorie tracking tool.

  21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Unrealistic recipes. This app is full of things I will never cook. Bunch of random recipes, food you’ve never wanted to try before and too complicated to do quickly at home.

  22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Too many green foods. I purchased this app because of the incredibly positive feedback but it just isn’t right for my personal use. The app and recipes themselves are not bad, they look great! The balance of food is simply askew. Healthy eating does not mean going green everything, it means balancing your diet. This app is perfect for those looking for vegan/green diets. Seafood is also big in this app for those looking. If you are looking for beef/chicken/pork then you will be at a loss with this app as it has very minimal selections. This app has so much potential and I would love for it to work for me.

  23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No Print Option????. The recipes look great. But there is no way to print out the recipes ingredients and directions. The only work around I have figured is to screenshot and print those. But it’s inefficient and annoying process for s cooking app. Very disappointed.

  24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Confused. It doesn’t seem to be updated to 2019!

  25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Wants more money. I hoped this app would be good but unfortunately although you buy it you still have to keep buy with in-app purchases to add recipes and meal plans. If you want a solid app, this is not the one.

  26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Landscape only. I cannot use an app that forces me to use it in landscape mode. The iPad is uncomfortable to hold that way.

  27. ★★★★★mixed experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Branded spice blends listed in recipes with no substitutions. Recipes will have Fit Men Cook branded spice blends in them with no guidance on how to substitute. This is very bad for those with food sensitivities to things like garlic and onion (ex. Low Fodmap) not to mention inconvenient to everyone who wants to quickly make a recipe without ordering something. Could be the perfect app if this was fixed and there were options for filtering out the 4 different FODMAP sensitivities in recipes.

  28. ★★★★★mixed experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    So much for new recipes every month. This app hasn’t been updated in two months

  29. ★★★★★search fails to find what is needed

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️. After searching for a recipe I couldn’t find I decided to go with another one. Chipotle chicken macaroni salad.. after viewing on the website the instructions were behind a click ad pay wall , fair enough, I understand… so I purchased the app.. TO FIND THAT THE RECIPE ISN’T EVEN ON THE APP! Disappointing but nevertheless there is still worthy content on the app. Now this could be solved by doing some housekeeping to make sure what content that’s on your website aligns with what content your app has.

  30. ★★★★★mixed experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Delicious recipes from a cool guy but definitely not geared to weight loss. All are high calorie.. Very heavy in calories
