## Review summary

Users praise Menu Box for integrating with Apple Shortcuts to build attractive, easy-to-use menus, with a UI/UX that's intuitive and time-saving. The app is also valued for affordable pricing and the ability to embed data directly in menu choices. However, recurring drawbacks include gating key docs and features behind a subscription, paywalled example shortcuts that are hard to test, occasional performance issues and slow responses for certain menus, and missing features like vCard export and Apple Watch support. Some users also note overly large item spacing in the UI.

- Example shortcuts require payment to test and often don’t work.
- Performance issues and slow responses on certain menus.
- Missing export to vCard and Apple Watch support.
