APP COMPARISON
Mandje vs SlimMandje
A recipe app that turns a recipe from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube or Facebook into a shopping list with products and prices from Albert Heijn or Jumbo, and puts that list in their online basket. The name resembles Mandje, the app does not.
In short: Mandje wins. SlimMandje does one thing cleverly: turn a recipe video into an orderable list at Albert Heijn or Jumbo, with a paid subscription. For the groceries themselves Mandje is the better choice: 10 supermarkets side by side, free without subscription, with price per kilo, price history, alerts and the offers of every chain. Do not confuse the two: SlimMandje is a recipe app, Mandje a price comparison app.
