What Users Really Think About Mela - Recipe Manager

Catastrophic iCloud sync reliability with abandoned developer support

"Sync between two devices simply doesn't work. I have 15 more recipes on my phone than on my iPad"

"Been emailing developer for months with no response"

Would be the perfect app if only sharing worked across iCloud. Reached out to developer multiple times to no avail. Please let me know when you resolve it and I’ll be back!

Have used this for a long time and liked it. One day turned on iCloud sync and without warning it deleted all my data. Years of data gone. Developer never responded to support requests.

This app has pretty much everything I’ve looked for in a recipe collection app and works fantastic … unless you’re looking to share your recipes with another person.

So I cannot paste. The formatting of the built in print function is only for full page. Can’t modify it. I feel like I...

I just updated to iOS 26 and the ability to control what gets included in the print menu is now gone. I usually uncheck the photo to save ink and the description to keep the recipe to one page, now I can’t do that anymore!

The only downfall is adding a new recipe from scan. I have been using Recipe Keeper and it has a much better process for importing and scanning new recipes. It should be like adding from a website.
