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.
