5/5just about perfect!
i have just recently started using Recipe Gallery and am super excited about the functionality! they've pretty much thought of everything that a home cook needs to keep track of recipes. as an avid cookbook collector, the ability to record and classify tried recipes simply by photographing the page is genius. and the search technology includes scanning the photographed page - which is awesome! the catagories and search functions work together seamlessly to help you find exactly what you're looking for no matter how many recipes you've recorded. the one minor complaint i have is that there are only two color options to personalize your gallery. as many people that utilize app technology and the internet are very visual and creative, having more color options to personalize the app i think would be greatly appreciated by the users. similarly, and this is not a complaint, just a bit of constructive feedback because i think the app's functionality is genius; with a bit of update on the logo and color scheme, and dare i say even the name, this app has the potential to appeal to the new generation of cool cooks out there - of which there are many. when researching apps i almost went right past it because it looks a bit fuddy-duddy. that said, i am so glad i didn't and will certainly be telling all of my cooking friends about it!

5/5AMAZING
Granted it has taken me days to sort through and upload my hundreds of recipes but this app makes it about as easy as it can get. You can upload them from websites in several different methods by screen shooting recipes or copy and pasting texts from websites (which is awesome for my dozens of Pinterest recipes that I’ve had nothing to do with for years). Or you can just simply take a picture of your recipe cards or books! Then you can categorize them into pasta, seafood, etc making it incredibly easy to find your favorite recipes! And finally my favorite part of this app... you can get the recipes on your phone or iPad. Which comes in handy if I’m out and about at the store but realize I forgot my recipe card at home or something... don’t have to worry about that anymore! And then when I get home I can pull up my iPad to view the recipe on a larger and propped up screen. Incredibly user friendly and easy to use. And customer service is SUPER responsive. At first I didn’t think my recipes were uploading between devices so I contacted customer service and they responded within 24 hours explaining each time you upload recipes and reopen the app on a different device it sometimes takes a little while to upload the new recipes... and problem solved! :) recommending this app to all my friends and family that love cooking!!

5/5Using it for years, exceptional customer service too!
I have been using this app for years and I have hundreds of recipes in it. I have photos of my grandmother’s hand written cards, on-line recipes with notes of my own variations, photos of cookbook pages, and my own recipes typed in. Most of them have photos. It’s easy to add a bookmark to a recipe online and import it later. I love the link to go to original recipe site, since so many people put ads in the middle of the recipe to interfere with screen grabs. I run it on my phone (for shopping) and my iPad (for cooking). I share recipes with my sister who also loves this app. I recently upgraded my phone and the app wasn’t downloading the recipes from iCloud correctly. It has been a problem for a while, and I hadn’t prioritized fixing it. But this morning I needed a recipe and decided to fix it. The support materials didn’t apply, so I used the built-in email support. It’s a Sunday, so I didn’t expect to hear anything for a few days. I was so surprised to get a step-by-step email addressing my exact problem within 3 hours. On a Sunday. Great product and great customer support.

5/5Excellent!!
Been looking for a good recipe app for several years. This one is gave me everything I needed plus more. I hesitated at first when I saw the price, not that $2.99 was expensive. My problem was with other apps I paid for that were buggy, incomplete and soon deleted. All of the great reviews for Recipe Gallery convinced me to give this a try. It was worth it!!! I am extremely pleased with this app! It is very easy to use and complete for my needs. You can easily take pictures of your existing recipes, crop down the size, alter the contrast as needed. It's very easy to type notes to add to the recipe or type out the entire recipe if you wish. Then to be able to go through the app to go out on line to find pictures and/or complete recipes was so easy and in my case helped me complete my recipes with pictures that I didn't have. There are a generous number of categories in the app and you can easily add new categories if desired. If I had any suggestion to give to the developers, there is only one - I haven't been able to get the categories to take my additions and alphabetize all of the old and new categories together.

5/5Finally my recipes are organized
I have collected recipes for a long time in pretty much every form...paper, Facebook, web sites. Every time I wanted to find a specific recipe it was a nightmare to figure out where I got it so I would have some clue how I might have stored it. With Recipe Gallery all that mess is in one place and categorized making it pretty easy to find recipes and a search feature that offers another way to locate things. I like that I can add notes as I make adjustments to the recipe. I also really like the fact that I can share across devices so my phone has everything stored too making it simple to pick up the ingredients for a recipe when I am shopping. And one last thing I have used quite often is sharing the PDF of a recipe in my gallery with others. No more writing it down every time someone asks me for a recipe...just export it to email and away it goes. There are so many apps out there that are only semi useful at best. It has been a great experience to find an app that does what it says it will do and is so useful it has become a tool I go to almost every day.
