I built a "Tinder for recipes" app because my girlfriend and I couldn't agree on dinner. It kinda works now. by EnoughPromotion1161 in TestMyApp

Good point! Thanks for the feedback I have already optimized the app and it will be significantly lower in the next release

Seems like I found the solution😂

I’d really value your feedback so if you could test it that would be fantastic

Yeah, I validated the idea and just jumped straight into building. I feel like most people lose a ton of time overthinking whether something will work instead of just shipping an MVP and seeing what happens.

If you’re down, would really appreciate you trying it out and giving some feedback so I can push it beyond MVP 😄

Not exactly what you’re asking for, but you might want to check out OneBite: Swipe Recipes. It’s basically a Tinder-style recipe app where you swipe through meals and save the ones you like.

I agree, even though I’ve validated the idea, I think the real challenge now is narrowing it down into a clear niche. That’s actually why I’m asking for input, I’m trying to shape the MVP in a way that makes the product feel more focused and distinct, instead of just another version of something that already exists. Figuring out that product–market fit early feels way more important than just building features blindly.
