Hello Larry and all: I am not Esther so by definition this email is not going to satisfy all of your questions because Esther is much smarter than me :). however, I have had some luck with this app. at first glance, it can look a tad disjointed because there are a variety of things on the screen. however, take heart. when you open the app, in the lower right-hand-corner you should see a recipes BTN, a recipes tab, my recipes BTN, my recipes tab, meal build BTN, meal build tab, store BTN, store tab, and tools BTN, and a store tab. I opened it quickly so if you do not see the tabs do not panic. if this is what you see however, double tap on the recipes tab … not the button, and that should drop you into the recipes section. near the top of the screen you should hear the app say showing 1 - 5 of 2164 recipes. or close to that :). more recipes may have been added since the writing of this email :). smoking baby back ribs should be the first recipe you come across. to the right of that you will hear voiceover say 4. I cannot tell if it means a number though it is probably a graphic of some sort. you will hear 4 immediately to the right of all the recipes. double tap on that and you will be brought to the baby back rib page … yum :)
some buttons are clearly labeled … details, ingredients, preparation. some are not and I am still experimenting. so, it does work although there is a slight learning curve. Hopefully this gets you started. I am off to try the east meets west burgers. lol Hopefully this email was of some use to you. Please let us know. take good care and I wish you enough.
