    Version: Yum 4.0.4

    Pros

    The original version was a jewel

    Cons

    The later versions have lots of difficulties: Updates yields multiple copies of the recipes, and just try and delete them....Good luck!

    July 20, 2011  |   By Notes

    Version: Yum 4.0.4

    Pros

    The old version. Used to like the program but then they went and "improved" it!

    Cons

    Read the other reviews that have one star and add mine to the list.

    Summary

    Hey, you guys and gals at Yum downgrade it to the old version.

    "Used to work as version 3"

    December 19, 2010  |   By wsyacy

    Version: Yum 4.0.3

    Pros

    Cloud? Who knows since the software version 4 doesn't work

    Cons

    The software duplicates the number of recipes every time turned on. This is an exponential problem. Also, there no longer is a list view, just the pictures, which don't even display the whole recipe's name!

    Summary

    THey have ruined a perfectly good program. Go back to version 3 features!

    "Gets worse with each update"

    November 25, 2010  |   By Thxtmn

    Version: Yum 4.0.2

    Pros

    appealing graphics

    Cons

    clumsy interface, extremely buggy

    Summary

    I agree with the other reviewers-earlier versions of the software worked fine. I don't see why it was changed for the worse. The fact that every time you open your recipe file, the program adds an additional copy to the existing recipes is insane. I have six copies of the same recipes now. All the categories I created are essentially irrelevant in the new version, because it forces you to use its own list of general recipe labels. And the display, though pretty, does not show full recipe titles. I'm transferring all my recipes to Bento, which works well, is customizable, and actually improves with each upgrade.

    "A great program totally trashed"

    November 21, 2010  |   By gfranco789

    Version: Yum 4.0.2

    Pros

    No deaths so far attributed to this software (as far as I know)

    Cons

    Cumbersome, buggy, unhelpful, difficult to use, poorly organized, etc. etc. etc.

    Summary

    Really used to like Yim, especially with the iPhone version I could take with me to the market, but the upgrade with the new user interface is just horrible. 1st the recipes are listed as little images without enough room to actually print the name of the recipe so you can't really tell what it is without opening it and loosing your place in the list. Then when you try to create a new recipe the format makes it difficult to paste the recipe instructions. There's no opportunity to format the instructions. I could go on... now today I suddenly find a bunch of recipes in the file that I never entered! Who knows where they came from. I really miss the old Yum. This thing sucks. Anyone know of a goof recipe program I can change to?

    "THey broke a great program"

    November 6, 2010  |   By wsyacy

    Version: Yum 4.0.2

    Pros

    It doesn't blow up your computer

    Cons

    Yum also was one of my wife's favorites but the new version doubles the recorded recipes each time she opens it. Does not provide a list format.

    Summary

    Not ready for prime time. Hard to believe that this was released in this condition.

    "Keep version 3.2"

    October 10, 2010  |   By Akopman

    Version: Yum 4.0.2

    Pros

    None that I can think of.

    Cons

    Simply does not work. Crashes every time I open it.

    Summary

    My wife's favorite program is Yum version 3.2. This version will open her old file but then crashes immediately. I am using OS 10.6.4. Old version works fine. No other problems with any other application.

    New version not ready for release.

    "Not worth it!"

    August 26, 2010  |   By MeV

    Version: Yum 4.0.1

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    this clown wants $30 for a product who's features haven't significantly improved from the older free version. Some people just need to step back and ask their closest friends "Does this make me look fat?" and take their advise. I'm sticking with the older version.
