About Mario Batali Cooks!

** This is the official Mario Batali android app. **

"I'm so excited to present my first ever app - the most advanced, robust, comprehensive cooking app ever built! I personally created 100% of the content in this app - 63 of my most requested recipes from the many regions of Italy each with it's own video and still images made exclusively for this app. Then I added 25 technique and kitchen basics videos along with my own, personal introduction. This app allows me to get as close as I've ever been to personally cooking with you in your kitchen. So grab some extra-virgin olive oil, and let's cook some great food!!" - Mario Batali

A new vision for what a cooking app can be – the most advanced and comprehensive cooking app yet.

• Extensive, intuitive bookmarking feature lets users cook more than one recipe at a time and jump quickly to favorites.
• Built-in timers for any recipe step that requires timing.

Complained to Google years ago. Still not fixed. Somebody should file a Class Action suit. Maybe it will be me. Any mass tort litigators reading this that are interested and think there's q case to be made for all the people who have spent real money on this and have been defrauded - please reach out directly to me.

Can't watch any of the videos or download them it just says network unreachable I originally paid for this app for my htc evo in2011 and it worked just fine, fast forward to 2015 and I can't get it to work on my samsung galaxy s5 or my samsung tab 3 it just says network unreachable they're both connected to wifi and 4G . I have to assume hi five labs has stopped all support

I love this app., great food. I love that Mario is more serious than he is on "The Chew", I can see he takes this serious. I can't wait for more recipes. Love the videos, Love the pics. And WHO thinks of putting a timer on their cooking site or app. ! Who does that? xo

Q70%
by Q####:

Wouldn't download. After reading some of the comments, no thanks... Developer participation could cure these hiccups. You don't care, why should we?

Q70%
by Q####:

Content is good, but the program crashes and support is not helpful. Not recommended.

Q70%
by Q####:

So why can I not reach the network to see Mario prepare the meal. Poor programming and unless fixed will ask for a refund. This looks bad on Mario when he is not the one programming the app.

Q70%
by Q####:

Great app. Top marks. All I would ask for would be a option to convert measures to metric. It's hard to shop in imperial. :-)

I'm yet another of the people who paid for this and tried to watch a video, only to see the message "Network Unreachable". Hundreds of people have experienced this. No return message from tech support. A complete waste of money. I can see that Mario is spreading himself pretty thin these days. Maybe he should should start actually cooking in YouTube videos that have his name splashed all over them, and perhaps hire app developers who don't need to spend half their time either apologizing or fixing silly errors. Booooo!

Q70%
by Q####:

App does not work. Trying to download videos and it just says "network not reachable". I need to cook for dinner guests in an hour and was planning on using this app since I don't have it all commited to memory. Just going to have to wing it. Please fix this.

by Q####:

Worked great at first. Currently, not able to to reach their network to download additional videos. Uninstalled then reinstalled only to lose all videos. Please fix.

Runs great on my Galaxy SIII. Very happy with the app, and recipes. Many come out of his first cookbook, and watching him cook them makes it a lot easier.
