    Quick Verdict

    Best for: Home cooks comfortable with broad data sharing

    Not For: You keep grocery and meal habits private

    What It Means For You

    Cooking habits, pantry contents, and in-app activity are shared with Facebook, Mixpanel, and Google Analytics for advertising and behavioral tracking. Purchase history is processed by multiple billing and attribution services. Users have limited control over what is collected or how long it is retained.

    Method and Limitations

    Static analysis only. CITT reviewed the code of this build without running the app, so runtime behavior was not observed. The findings below describe the analyzed build and may not reflect server-side controls or later versions. CITT makes no determination about compliance with any law or platform policy; it reports what the artifacts contain and cites the published guidance so a reader can compare.

    What Data is Collected

    Pantry inventory, meal plans, and shopping lists are stored remotely. In-app behavior, including which recipes are viewed, how frequently the app is opened, and how long is spent on each screen, is captured by multiple analytics services. Subscription and purchase history is processed by three separate billing services. Account identity is handled through Google Sign-In.

    Third-Party Data Sharing

    Activity and account data is shared with nine third-party services:

    • Facebook SDK - behavioral data used for ad targeting across the Facebook network
    • Mixpanel - detailed event-level behavioral analytics
    • Google Analytics - usage and engagement tracking
    • Firebase Analytics - session and event tracking
    • Sentry - crash and error diagnostics
    • RevenueCat - subscription lifecycle and purchase management
    • Google Play Billing - payment processing
    • Amazon IAP - payment processing
    • Google Sign-In - account authentication

    Positive Security Features

    No notable positive security practices were identified in this version of the app.

    Areas for Improvement

    • User data is shared with nine third parties, and the app provides no clear mechanism to limit, pause, or opt out of that sharing.
    • Data sent between the device and the app's servers does not consistently apply strong protections, meaning user data travels with less protection than expected under certain network conditions.
    • There is no visible way for users to request deletion of account data or review what has been collected.
