Recipe Keeper

I trialed this and liked how easily it imports recipes, so I clicked the Upgrade button in the app. Although all the features were unlocked and I get all the updates automatically, it's still "Recipe Keeper Free" in the Start Menu, and if I go to Recipe Keeper Pro in the Store it wants me to purchase it again, which is confusing. I recommend that if you want to upgrade, you uninstall Free and buy Pro through the Store. Pluses: Imports recipes from most of my favorite web sites, syncs across devices (if you register), very easy to use, handy timers while cooking, backup and restore functions.

I tried the app on my laptop to see if I liked it. Turned out it was very user friendly and I could copy pictures right from a word document and paste it into the app. So I purchased the pro version of the app so I could use it on my iPad. I downloaded it on the iPad and went to sign in only to find that I would have to dish out another $5 for that and another $5 if I wanted it on my phone as well. I would have given the app a 5 star review if I didn't have to pay for the pro version on every device. However, shortly after paying for the pro version I had to do a clean install of Windows on my computer and was worried I would have to pay for the app again. Low and behold all I had to do was sign in again.

The application is very handy if you store, keep a lot of recipes. The app does allow syncing with your other devices, computers, tablets and smart phones but you are required to purchase the Pro version for each device. Update: After purchasing the application for my laptop and tablet, I noticed that my laptop still shows me using the free version. I tried contacting the vendor but the link only goes to a blank page for this app. Take the time to explore other applications prior to purchasing this one.

I have been looking for over a year for an app that will keep all my recipes on the computer. I have tried various options and just found the most of the portability was just not worth the effort. Almost all of my recipes are stored as emails, in folders. I have been afraid that this was too unstable for continued long-term use. This app is so easy to use... I can import them from other websites very easy, for the "family recipes" that I have saved as emails, the copy and paste feature is so easy. The photos look beautiful and once you have saved the whole recipe... it's appearance is very professional. I also like the fact that I can adjust the courses and categories according to what is convenient for me. I like the fact that I can also use this on my android phone as well. The price is right for the pro version as well. I highly recommend Recipe Keeper... I think you will like it too!

I love this app! I have been looking for something like this for YEARS that is this easy to use and I LOVE the way you can just import recipes instead of having to enter everything personally. But also be able to put your own recipes in it or customize your recipes that you import.
