Drop Kitchen - Recipe App

I bought Drop because I needed a new scale The scale works well but the app could be improved I agree with other comments about needing organization and the ability to add your own recipes Also the recipes that are there need a QA review and a review by an experienced baker The recipe I tried uses an absurd amount of bowls and tools and they dont actually match the up front images So far I think I would have been just as happy with a separate cheaper digital scale and a different recipe app           Improvements are needed

I preordered Drop months ago finally got my scale The scale is simple and works but has no display You must use it with an iPad No iPhone compatibility though it is in the works Someday The recipe app is pretty like Pinterest but lacks any organizational abilities at all Have some favorites Remember their names because youll need to search to find them again Some you dont like and dont want to see Cant block those out Cant organize recipes into your own categories cant export or print them either no way to share Its a good first attempt at an application but needs a lot more useful features At this point I am better off with a 10 digital scale and any 5 cookbook app I hope the Drop team has a lot more in store for buyers or mine will end up in the cabinet of unused kitchen gadgets           Mixed feelings

Its a great concept and the scale works perfectly But theres still no way to add your own recipes We bake and cook every meal and yet we use the 100 scale almost exclusively for weighing coffee in the mornings If I knew you couldnt add your own I wouldnt have purchased it If you wont allow people to add their own with a 100 accessory you better have thousands of recipes Which it does not        No custom recipes

I agree 100 with a previous reviewer who said it lacks organization Going through the recipes I was overwhelmed and hated not being able to remove ones I knew I would never use or organize them by dish type I preordered this product and was excited to receive it but it has been in the cabinet since I took it out of the box Im not interested in a lot of the recipes and would prefer to have the ability to import recipes and use it with those rather than just the ones that are on the app I hope this is a feature in an upcoming release otherwise it will as the other reviewer said become an unused kitchen gadget     Good conceptbad execution

Really do love the scale and the overall concept I can understand how much it takes to get a product out the door from concept to shelves but the app is essentially in beta stage The scale works as advertised and is really well designed outside of the onoff function is a little hit or miss They did a great job with the overall product I concur with other reviewers concerning the lack of organization with the recipes Its essentially a bunch of recipes thrown together You cant favorite a recipe or remove one along with not being able to upload one One of the biggest disappointments is the fact that one of the selling points was the ability to scale recipes with the ingredients that you have That feature isnt even live yet in the app yet they advertise like it is I would say thats pretty much false advertising Overall I like the potential Drop has but need to see many improvements in the app Once that happens I will update my review        Great scale and concept but the app needs a lot of work

There should be a way to view recipe ingredients without going through the steps while making the recipe As it is now the ingredients are greyed out so you have to strain your eyes to see what it is in order to see if you have enough of the ingredient before you beginlike any other recipe Need more recipes and need a way to upload your own Neat concept though     Needs Work

I love my Drop Kitchen scale and Recipe app Ive baked so many different items in the past few weeks for different holiday parties and got a million compliments on my goods I literally could not have made such tasty treats without my Drop The entire process is simple and everything turns out perfect                 Best Kitchen Gadget

My girlfriend was a skeptic at first because she already enjoyed baking but shes now a convert because everything weve made with this has turned out spectacular mainly cookies but were going to tackle some more difficult recipes soon Weve been making something every weekend Its nice they added a way to mark our favorite recipes On the whole we love it and would definitely recommend it to any home that wants more fun in the kitchen making impressive things This sucker works September 2015 update Nice new UI and lots of new awesome recipes                 Awesome results

This is a beautiful well designed and wonderfully useful app for all kinds of baking and cooking Designed especially to compliment the Drop connected kitchen scale available at the developers web site and at the Apple Store youll be whipping up exciting meals and desserts in no time Features like a timer connected to your phone let you monitor your food while on other tasks smart scaling and substitutions to make the most of the ingredients you have on hand and one bowl recipe prep with handsfree progression with the scale will make your meals shine                 We cant wait to use Drop

I bought the drop scale thinking I could use it for my own recipes No can do All it allows you to do is use one of their recipes That wouldnt be so bad if it werent for the fact that the large majority of their recipes deal with cakes cookies and other horrible sweet things You can use it as a regular kitchen scale but its kinda expensive plus you have to connect your iPad to it which is cumbersome compared to a regular cheap kitchen scale This product is just collecting dust in my kitchen     Wouldnt buy this product again

Gorgeous photos and mouthwatering recipes Great for anyone learning to bake                 Great for learning to bake

Drop has changed the way I cook Its easy to use the selection of recipes is varied and interesting and everything Ive made has turned out great Its perfect for the experienced cook like me and for the novice like my husband Results are always consistent thanks to the easy to follow directions tips and photos                 Love Drop

Great recipes easy to follow instructions and sleek design                 I love Drop

Was disappointed to find when I had an hour rise time on some bread and launched another app that Drop lost my place in the recipe I thought with the timer going it would run in the background and keep my place Now I have to annoyingly click thru to the place I was at in the recipe to finish the bread Not sure Ill be keeping this thing        Cant leave the app or it loses your spot

I can open the app and click on a recipe However it will close the app Currently unusable and I was getting ready to use it for the first time        Automatically closes
