It would be handy if I could communicate to the app that I’m vegetarian and to stop promising me 5-star recipes via push notification that turn out to be chicken. While I understand that this could get expansive and out of hand quickly, it seems like a “I’m vegetarian/vegan/gluten intolerant/etc” toggle could be helpful for […]

At least 50% of the time, the app tells me it can’t load the feed because I’m “offline.” I have unlimited data and I’m on WiFi at home. The app should work regardless either way. I have reported the issue to NYT with no fix. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Not helpful if […]
The app could use a lot of improvement with respect to its recipe discovery. It would be very easy for them to add search fields by cuisine, ingredient, rating score, and many other categories. After the search, there should be sorting filters. These are basic features of any recipe app. Also, comments would be much […]
I love being able to access the NYT cooking database. I have found so many recipes that I have added to my favorite rotation. The one flaw I would say that it does have is in the “recommended for you” department. Even after I have looked at and not saved (usually because of obscure ingredients […]
I love NYT recipes and fill my recipe box accordingly. But this app has two main flaws. One appears to be a bug in that the category folders do not contain all of the appropriate recipes. For example, I added the recipe for the drink Tinto de Verano to my box, but it does not […]
The content is great, but there is some opportunity to improve functionality. Clicking the share feature on a recipe has always resulted in the app crashing for me. Which is frustrating, especially when I want to share a recipe that I’ve loved with family and friends!! It would also be nicer to be able to […]
Excellent Resource. I am a long-time subscriber to the NYT, so I had no problem with access. The recipes are excellent if a bit awkward to find. The cooking skill level is properly assessed but you need some cooking skills to do the easy level. I personally would like the food analysis breakdown, calories, fat, […]
The only thing I dislike about this app is that it seems not to know when you chosen the “Stay Logged In” setting. You’ll click on a recipe, it will take you to a full-page ad for potential new subscribers, there will be a dialogue button in the upper rt corner that says “Log Out,” […]
It’s a bit disorganized but getting better over time. The early versions were harder to use, but it’s clear that this is much better and easier to use than most of what anyone else has going on. The fact that it’s improving is a good sign that it’s being invested in. More importantly, the recipes […]
I really like having this available. I feel bad because my large, beautiful NYT cookbook in print is languishing on the shelf but you can’t beat the convenience. I wish the search functionality were stronger and the folders could be customized better. Also how do I rate recipes in the app?? Oh and one feature […]
I like some things about this app, but there are a lot of annoying things about it. In the grocery list, I can only remove a certain number of items from my list before it crashes. I also find it really annoying I can’t add other items to my grocery list unless it comes from […]
The recipes are useful, and it’s one of the better recipe apps available for Android. However, much like some other NYT subscriptions, it is very difficult to cancel. You are required to call Customer Service or have a long online chat, and they will try to talk you out of it. It reminds me of […]
App would be great, but doesn’t reliably categorize recipes you bookmark, which is one of the primary use cases for the app. I hate looking through 40 recipes categorized as “dinner” only to realize that the one I’m looking for is one of another 10-15 tucked away somewhere in a “bookmarked” folder of every recipe […]
Good recipes, easy to use, and you can save all the recipes you like so you can always go back to them. I just wish there was a way to edit/add thoughts and ideas to the saved recipes, so that I can customize any of them to my liking, and it would only be saved […]
I’m tired of this app. I’m a paying subscriber, but reconsidering. This has been enshittified. Any time you minimize the app, it pulls you out of the recipe (or list, or whatever) you were viewing and drives you back to the start page, presumably to increase add views there. If I’m cooking, which is primarily […]
App didn’t work despite way too much time on it. Log in (it acknowledges I’m logged in) and it still won’t take you to the recipes, so far it asks various things, like do I want to continue my free trial (what free trial?) and do I want to buy a description (another one?). Anyway, […]
Had a subscription, it expired, I chose to renew it and lost all of my saved recipes. Poor app Has a bunch of potential but the interface is really poor. Would love to see an ability to search through saved recipes, and organize recipes with better ease. If there were more options of lists, I […]
A good app, though here’s a recommendation. When browsing your “Recipe Box”, which could contain dozens of recipes, once you select one of your saved recipes to look at and then want to go back to the list of recipes, it brings you all the way back to the top of the list, instead of […]
Recipes are great, use them all the time, but the app is pointless? The UI is worse than using a mobile brower. No sidebar for what to cook/recipes/ingredients. No “cook mode” to keep the screen from turning off. Autoplaying videos in the recipes even with autoplay turned off (which apparently is only for the home […]
Lots of good recipes, but this is a paid subscription and yet there are giant advertisements everywhere. The app has few features, it visibly polls for data and reloads the screen, clicking an item and pressing back always returns you to the top of the list instead of where you were (super annoying). The app […]
