Dinner Daily App FAQs

For a quick overview of how our app works on the phone CLICK HERE

Our app has been designed to work equally well on your phone and your computer.  Once you install our app on either device (see “How to get the App on your phone or computer” below) you will have direct access to your plan without the need to log in to our website.

If you ever want to swap out a recipe or delete an entire meal,  it is very easy to do! You can also change your food preferences, dietary needs, store and state from the same view without needing to go to a separate settings page.  You can see this in action HERE

You can shop in store on your phone or if a printed list is your preference, that’s an option too. Please note print is only available from the computer at this point in time.  Just click on the print icon in the upper right corner of the green teal bar to print your shopping list or your recipes.

• On the shopping list, you can select one or more dinners to shop for, and the ingredients for the other meals will be hidden
• Pictures of the main courses are now an integral part of the recipes.
• It’s fast and you’re always logged in.

Here’s how it works: If you have selected a Kroger or Kroger-owned store, (such as Fred Meyer, Frys Food, King Soopers, Pick N Save, Ralphs or Smiths Food and Drug) you’ll see an “Order” button at the bottom of your shopping list on your phone, or in the upper left side of the screen on your computer.  Click that and you will be connect to a  existing Kroger.com account or you can set up a new Kroger.com account.  After connecting, when you return to the Shopping List, simply select the items you want to send to Kroger by tapping the checkbox next to the item(s)  and then tap on the Order button. You will see a confirmation window showing the items to be sent (and their prices) and you can select which store near you to send them too. The items sent will now have a green dot next to them in your shopping list. Be sure to go to Kroger.com to check out and schedule your delivery or pickup.

Please note that you need to allow access to your location for this feature to work correctly, so it can identify the Kroger or Kroger owned stores nearest you  to send the order.   The app will prompt you to allow, but if you did not allow at first and need to change here are instructions:
