User Reviews

Real Plans is strong for auto shopping lists, Whole30 meal planning, leftovers, and supportive onboarding. However, recurring complaints focus on high cost and billing/refund hassles, frequent instability and update issues, a clunky UI, limited recipe variety, and some diet-type confusion. Overall, it’s a powerful planning tool when it works, but cost, reliability, and usability hinder broad satisfaction.

Pros

Automatic, customizable shopping list generated from meals
Whole30-compliant automated meal planning with easy editing and leftovers
Efficient weekly planning with leftovers and grocery optimization
Easy import of external recipes and ability to add personal recipes/recipe integrations
Responsive customer support and helpful onboarding

Cons

Expensive subscription with recurring billing and frequent cancellation/refund problems
Frequent app instability and update-related blocking (crashes, not working, performance issues)
Clunky, non-intuitive UI with slow navigation and problematic editing/search
Limited recipe variety and need for add-ons or paid extras to access more recipes
Confusion or misalignment around diet types (e.g., Whole30 options) and expectations

I love how easy it is to schedule meals, whether it’s a recipe from the app or one that I’ve imported. I love how it generates a shopping list for me and how I can check things off as I’m shopping. My biggest complaint is a recurring problem. I have gluten free bread scheduled for my shopping every week. Every once in a while, it disappears completely from the list and I have to add it again. Even though it is a weekly item, I have actually forgotten to purchase it when it has disappeared from the list, which is very annoying. The whole point of scheduling weekly recurring items is so that I don’t have to think about them every week.

I love the shopping list feature!! It was fantastic at simplifying the changes I needed to make in my shopping to accommodate the Low FODMAP diet. Just wish there was a bit more variety and new recipes published more often.

I’ve done whole30 before and it’s night a day with this app! I love you can say when you want to cook and when you want leftovers! Of course you can pick your meals but having them start with something helped my decision fatigue and everything they’ve suggested I’ve loved!
