## What is AiMeal?

What's for dinner tonight? Open AiMeal and it's already decided.

AiMeal answers the 4pm question every day. Tonight's dinner is on the screen when you open the app, with a photo of the dish and the recipe one tap away. Don't feel like it? Tap Something else and a different dinner that fits your family takes its place. That's the whole app on a weeknight, and it's free every day, forever.

TONIGHT, DECIDED
• Tonight's dinner is waiting when you open the app. No scrolling, no browsing, no debate.
• Every meal comes with a photo of the dish. Add your own picture to any meal and it comes back whenever that meal does.
• Tap Recipe for clear step-by-step directions, with the ingredients right there.
• Tap Something else for a different dinner that respects your never-list, your traditions, and what your family actually eats.
• Tomorrow's dinner shows underneath, so you know what to pull from the freezer.

IT PLANS ITSELF
• The week fills in quietly in the background so tonight always has an answer, from AiMeal's own library of family meals, each with a photo and its recipe built in.
• With AiMeal Pro, Grok (by xAI) writes the week for your household instead: your favorites, your never-list, your headcount, quick on weeknights and a little more involved on weekends.
• Heart the meals you love and they come back. Skip the ones you don't and they are gone for good.
• Never list: type "no mushrooms" once and it never shows up again. Set Taco Tuesday and every week just knows.

AIMEAL PRO: GROK WRITES IT, THE WHOLE WEEK, SHOPPED
• Grok writes every meal for your family, and rewrites any recipe simpler, faster, one-pot or healthier.
• Type exactly what you are cooking and for how many ("chicken pot pie for 6") and Grok writes that recipe, sized to your table, with the ingredients on your list.
• Breakfast and lunch too: tap them at the top of Today and each gets its own card. Any one, two or all three.
• See all seven nights and swipe up to three months ahead. Swap one night, Keep the ones you love, Skip the nights you are eating out, and re-roll the rest.
• The grocery list writes itself: every ingredient across the week, combined and sorted by store aisle, pantry staples left off, every-week items like milk added automatically.
• Send the list straight to your Kroger cart and pay in Kroger's own checkout. Or text it, print it, or drop it into Apple Reminders.
• Two weeks in one trip, Done shopping and Past lists, and unlimited re-plans in Budget, Mix or Fancy.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-up, and no tracking. Your plans, rules, favorites and grocery lists are stored on your device.
• AI planning is opt-in: AiMeal asks before anything is sent. With your OK, it sends Grok (by xAI) the dish names you type, your meal style and family size, and your food preferences and favorite-meal titles, to write your meals. Never stored, never linked to you.
• Say no and AiMeal keeps planning with its built-in offline planner. Change it anytime in Settings.

The 4pm question, answered before you ask it.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-16

Now with pictures and a smarter week. Every meal shows a photo of the dish, and you can add your own. Type any meal and how many people are eating ("chicken pot pie for 6") and Grok writes the recipe and the ingredient list. The Week screen lets you swipe up to three months ahead, and every night has Swap, Keep and Skip. Tonight's dinner, Something else and recipes for AiMeal's own library meals are free forever. Grok writing for your family, breakfast and lunch, the week view, the grocery list, Kroger and exports are AiMeal Pro, with your first 3 days included.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-14

AiMeal now opens on one question: what's for dinner tonight? Tap Recipe and start cooking, Something else for a different dinner, or Not cooking tonight. Add breakfast and lunch to Today with one tap each. The week plans itself in the background so tonight always has an answer. Tonight's dinner, swap and recipe are free forever. The week view, grocery list, Kroger cart and exports are now part of AiMeal Pro, with your first 14 days included.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-09-11

Tonight's dinner now sits at the top of the plan with its recipe one tap away. Swap any night with the new Swap button. Add every-week items like milk and butter once and they land on every list. Tap Done shopping after a store run and find it later under Past lists. Fold next week into one trip. Hide side suggestions you never use. Switch between Simple and full planning any time from Settings. And every screen now has a ? in the corner that explains it in plain English.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-28

Small polish release with clearer App Store info. Manual planning stays free forever, your free plan still includes one AI-planned week each month, and the free trial still gives 14 days of unlimited AI planning.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-26

Planning by hand is now free forever - type any meal into any week, keep your grocery list, exports and Kroger. Your free plan includes one AI-planned week every month, and the trial now gives you 14 days of unlimited AI planning.

Swap one night without touching the rest of your week - tap the dice on any meal. Not cooking Thursday? Mark it Leftovers or Eating out and it stays off your grocery list. Keep weeknights quick: Mon-Fri meals stay under 30 minutes unless you want otherwise.

Plus: past weeks stay on your calendar with one-tap repeat, lock meals you love and re-roll the rest, fill all three meals together, an optional weekly planning reminder, 100 meals in the offline library, and easier Kroger reconnection.
