LaLa Lunchbox App Reviews

My son enjoys being able to decide what he eats for lunches, and I like that I can modify the lists to reflect what we have in the house and what he can eat. The grocery list function helps me plan my shopping trips, which is an added bonus. Love it!

I love the app it was so helpful especially when it was a last minute kind of thing.

There is no option to add your own food ideas. Lots of things we normally take for lunch are not on this list, and cant be added. Also, it just seems to be an ad for Applegate foods. My child doesnt understand what half the stuff listed is & its not even available in our area. Not worth buying the app, and not really worth having when its free.

Downloaded this app last year for my son when we were both so tired of PB&J in his lunchbox. I was so surprised at some of the things he requested for lunch via the app! He was 7 when we started, which I think was a great age to begin planning. He understood the choices he needed to make and I rarely had to veto anything. His sister is now 5 and weve started her on the app too. It takes a little more effort with her- I sit and do it with her. But I consider it training her to make the healthy choices. I do wish there was an easier way to switch between boxes while packing the lunches. I think someone else suggested swiping up which would be great. I also wish you could customize the number of items by user as well as edit custom items after you add them. All in all, we love this app!!

I thought this was a cute and functional app for my kindergartner, who is adept at feeding monsters. The construct is easily understood, but it is unfortunately not user friendly. It does not sync between devices, even though we have it linked to be on the iPad and mine and my husbands phones, so any updates or changes that are made to the menu options only show up on the device in which it was made. Because I took photos of food items to customize things, that means we always have to use my phone, and the images are very small, not to mention that the menu is so small it is hard for him to page through the options. Items that I have deleted multiple times somehow keep showing up. There are food items that have pictures and can only be used in one category, which is frustrating--it would be nice to be able to add some items to >1 category (e.g., applesauce in both Fruit and Snack categories). When we have the time to research a new app, we will definitely change, because it is a frequent hassle.

My kids and I really enjoy using this app. I wish there were a way to include more of the foods the kids like and that we could add some of our own ideas for lunches.

We’ve been using the app for a while with good success. I load it up with the agreed options and foods she likes and she she gets to pick whats in her lunches— she can’t complain! Woo hoo! Great customer support to boot, a definite recommend.

This is a great app! I only have one problem, I can not delete or edit the lunchboxs and this makes it difficult to use. I need these problems to be fixed to give it five stars.
