Fridge Pal App Reviews

Good concept, waiting for better sync.

Its a good concept but the execution needs some more work before it can be 5 stars.

Functionally, this app seems great, but its internal syncing tool lost all my data, and the Dropbox integration doesnt appear to work at all. Very disappointing since it was a great standalone app.

After says of inventorying our freezers it deleted everything in a sync. No response from support team after multiple emails. A heartbreaking amount of work, and we paid for the sync functionality on all our devices.

This is an absolute app to have in order to monitor your food storage. I tried lots of app but this app stands out specially with barcode scanning. It is almost complete only one thing is missing... Hope you will put an inventory level so that it will go automatically to the shopping list once it goes below the inventory level. This is one of the most important feature that needs to be added in order to be on top of everything. Please consider adding it as soon as you can. This is highly recommended to have!!!

I thought this was a great tool until all the data I had entered mysteriously disappeared today. I had spent hours entering details from my freezer and pantry and was extremely unhappy to see all my effort was a big waste of time.

I originally rated this 5 stars, then took away 1 when scanner and synching werent working. Now, I take away all stars and why not -- it took away two months of data. Constant crashing, parsing errors, mysterious reappearances.... What irks me is having convinced friends to migrate to this app, even convinced some to buy it, and now were left with no recourse but to go back through deep freezers pantries and cupboards to know expiration dates. Sad, it was a good app. Try rewriting getting rid of the scanner and the recipes and maybe it can work again. I dont know if I would ever trust it again though.

All I wanted was a simple list for shopping that alphabetizes which this seemed to offer but EVERY time I launch I get a “Cellular Data is Turned Off for Fridge Pal. You can turn on cellular data for this app in settings” Well fridge pal. I’ve been using you for weeks and guess what? after asking me that hundreds of times don’t you get I don’t want you to use a single byte of my cellular data? I have no use for you connecting to the internet and instead of turning it on you’ve earned yourself a one star rating and I’m now going to uninstall. Also can’t seem to turn off tips and never opens on the one page I use (shopping list) Off I go looking for a replacement.

My wife and I use this to keep inventory of our pantry and fridge. Its frustrating when things run out. App does not sync well with our 2 iPhones so we cannot see the same shopping list and inventory. I was not able to upgrade using my credit with App Store, very frustrating. Barcode scanner sometimes freezes and hangs. When manually adding items to shopping list, menu bar at the bottom of screen covers up main screen choices and you cannot slide the choices up into view. They keep dropping back down. All in all though very handy. Hope to see improvements and updates.

Not an upgrade version shows an ad at the bottom. It pushed the top menu up. Cannot click the buttons at the top.

Hope they can fix the bugs. Downloaded this app a while ago but no updates to fix the constant crashing. Great concept, love that you can scan (but not always successfully), like that theres expiry dates but not everything needs an expiry date so would be nice if this field is optional. As well theres a fridge where you can store things but cant figure out how to put things in there as the default is no storage and I creates a pantry but when I go to store the item the fridge is not an option. Not super intuitive as you do need to navigate a bit to get to various places. Would be nice to add Stores so you can sort you shopping list by stores youre at. Would also be great if there was a spot to write notes about a product Please update and it has a potential of 5*

Absolutely loved the app. Then developer releases an update, knowing it is likely to wipe all of users accumulated data (lists, products, inventories, etc), with no warning to users. As useful and attractive as the app is, Im not going to waste time re-entering all that info just to risk it being deleted again with the next update. Switching to a more stable program.

Scan wont work on Ipad...

I liked the fact that the app offered the option to scan all the groceries but the app doesnt work the screen is all black

I feel ripped off. Silly me that spent any money and their support email doesnt even work.

Nice looking, great idea. Very usefull. I propose addinational function on product in fridge, when you swipe it. There is delete pls try to add "export to shoping list".

It is nice and easy to use but it does need improvements on syncing. Moreover When you add something reading barcode you dont get any pop up or message so you have to go and check if was added properly. Slow to delete stuff from list.

Since when 2,99$ equals 2,99€?

The app doesnt work with the upgrade. I tried to send an email to The Support but I received no answer! The App is basically good but there now is not working and I wasted Time and money.

After last update, categories cannot be edit or changed and once I tried app crashes. Very annoying. I spent the entire weekend to add all products in my fridge and pantry, would be very welcome and useful that the work done will improve the database. Syncing and sharing (like family members) are fundamental features.
