Master Cook for desktop computers is a great recipe program! That fact hasn’t changed since I began using it over 30 years ago. It’s a program that has provided robust recipe archiving, back-up, retrieval, and more! Now, thanks to the Master Cook App, that program capability is now portable. Tech support is available to help with any issues you may encounter. I’ve not had many, and they were dealt with promptly and professionally to my satisfaction. They have been friendly and helpful every time!

This app works best together with the Master Cook desktop app. It's much easier to add recipes, related pictures, etc. in the desktop app versus on the phone. I only add and edit on the desktop, and I use the phone app to display a recipe while cooking. I like the functionalities of the desktop app that other apps don’t have, for example, the link to the 300000+ USDA food items database. Additional items not found in the USDA DB can be added together with nutritional information.

I have used Master Cook for years and wilĺ continue to use it. I enter new recipes, modify recipes that I have already entered; and delete recipes that I no longer use.

At some point after 2011 the developer sold this company to Valusoft Finance (name says it all). Instead of improving their original Windows and Mac product they spent their money on extracting residual revenue from their existing and future base by investing in Android & IOS apps & a cloud site. The existing Win & Mac products are still early 2000s crude. Do yourself a favor: if you can live with a PC version, find a torrent and download v15 for free. That's what these grease balls deserve.

Some features are great for importing online recipes, but I am still on the lookout for a better program. The shopping list sucks. It doesn't combine items or organize by shopping section, so I may have something on my list that is repetitive, garlic for example, is listed 4 times in my list and I have to check it off 4 times and each time it wants me to accept and then returns to the top of the list, so I have to scroll down again to check all off. Ridiculous rookie programming mistakes.

The app is great, BUT... the value? Not so much. I have been using Master Cook for years and never had problems. Tonight I couldn't log in and got a message that if your subscription expires, you pay $100?!!! No, thanks! I have Master Cook 14 installed on my PC and will be taking my recipes to a different app.
