I own the "101 Juice Recipes" App as well as the "101 Smoothie Recipes" App plus the physical spiral-bound "101 Juice Recipes" book with the same recipes as in the juice app.
First I gotta state that the recipes themselves are perfect. Well balanced veggies and fruit for healthy juices which even taste good. And they only use produce which can be found easily. Other juice books Ive got have ingredients youll never find in normal stores.
The design and user experience of the app is great too but there are some disadvantages compared to the book which would be worth fixing:
1) They put a lot of emphasis on different juice colors and tell you you should drink different colors each day but in the app you cant search for a specific color. You can only search by ingredients, condition, category or index. An extra color-search where you can see say just the yellow juices would be good. Weirdly enough under category you can look for "green juices" but not the other colors.
2) in the physical book every "Reeboting Juice" is indicated with an "R" on the recipe page. In the app though you can search for "Rebooting Juices" under category but once in the recipe itself there is no indication whether the juice is reboot friendly or not. An extra visible label within the recipe would be much appreciated.
THE NEXT TWO ISSUES DEAL WITH THE SMOOTHIE APP TOO
3) what I find annoying is that there are two separate shopping lists for juices and smoothies if you got both apps. This way you have to switch and the same ingredients appear twice. An integration would be great
4) in both apps you get the same video tutorials on how to juice, buying a juicer and how to make Joes Mean Green Juice while this is great for the juice app it is not sensible for the smoothie app. Other videos for smoothie preparation and buying a proper blender would be cool.
SOME MINOR FLAWS WHICH DIDNT TURN OUT AS SUCH BUT WOTH MENTIONING
5) I looked ages for the substitution table for different produce. Youll find it with a right-wipe next to the ingredients
6) Same thing goes for the list on how to juice different veggies and fruit. Thought first they had not included it in the app but its to be found under the little "i" in the upper right corner and then in the "how to" section. I found that counter intuitive.
It would be cool if these issues could be considered in the next update!
