Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The nice looks of the application are quite appealing and allow users to customize the background. The visuals are coupled with a smart organization of the content, but the difficulties in accessing that information take away some of that good feeling. |
Function9
Allrecipes Dinner Spinner offers a wide variety of recipes and users can search the database or use the special feature that gives the app's name to find original dishes. The nutrition facts and the detailed instructions are also important pluses for this utility. |
Security5
The application is quite intrusive in terms of areas of the system it requires access to, as it tends to look in many places that have nothing to do with the actual functionality. |
Battery7
Allrecipes Dinner Spinner needs a moderate to high amount of energy to run properly and the battery usage is noticeable higher when carrying out lots of searches and loading several recipes in a row. |
Price9
The amount of information brought by this app freely is impressive and the only things that decrease its overall value are the delays in accessing that info. |
Compatibility9
Tailored to work on most Windows Phone handsets, the app only needs version 7.5 or above of the operating system to be installed onto the device. |
