## What is Bimsy?

Family dinners, planned. Budget, kept.

Bimsy plans a week of dinners for your family around your budget, your supermarket and the little ones at your table, then turns it into one tidy shopping list. It's made for busy mums and dads, grandparents and anyone who hears "what's for tea?" every single day.

A WEEK OF DINNERS IN A MINUTE
Answer a few quick questions about who's eating, what they like and what you want to spend. Bimsy builds seven family dinners that fit, with simple recipes and the cost per portion. Not feeling Tuesday's dinner? Swap it in one tap.

BUILT AROUND YOUR BUDGET
Pick a weekly budget and Bimsy chooses dinners to fit it. Tell us roughly what you spend on food now and it shows an honest estimate of what a planned week could save you.

A SHOPPING LIST SPLIT BY SHOP
Your week's ingredients are added up and sorted by aisle, so you're not doubling back for the onions. Shop in two places? Bimsy splits the list between them. Pick your usual shop, from the big UK supermarkets to US grocery chains. Costs are estimates in £ or $, with local units. Bimsy isn't affiliated with any shop.

KIND TO FUSSY EATERS
Add each child, their age and the foods they won't touch. Bimsy leans towards kid-friendly dinners they're likely to eat and shows you how to plate each one their way, from the same pan. Cook once, keep everyone happy.

COOK FROM YOUR FRIDGE
Snap your fridge or type what's left. Bimsy spots the ingredients and finds dinners that use them up, best match first, with a short list of anything else you'd need.

SNAP YOUR PLATE
Photograph a meal for a quick calorie and macro estimate, log tonight's dinner in one tap and see your day at a glance. Photo counts are AI estimates and can be well off. Not medical or dietary advice.

ALLERGIES AND DIETS
Tell us about allergies and dietary needs and we'll filter them out of the recipes we suggest. Always check labels: Bimsy can't guarantee any recipe is allergen-free.

NO ACCOUNT NEEDED
There's no sign-up. Your plans, preferences and family details stay on your phone. Photos you snap are sent securely to our server and Google's Gemini AI to be analysed. We don't store them.

BIMSY PLUS
After you build your first week, Bimsy needs a Bimsy Plus subscription to keep using it: yearly with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers, or weekly.

Plus includes weekly family dinner plans, kids' plates, smart shopping lists, budget-matched meals, one-tap swaps, fridge scans and plate snaps.

Bimsy Plus is an auto-renewing subscription. Choose yearly, with a free trial for new subscribers, or weekly with no free trial. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when your free trial ends. Your subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-10-29

Ramuna is now Bimsy, a family meal planner. Ramuna's hair-care plan has been retired.

Meet Bimsy, your new family meal planner.

Tell us who's at your table and what you want to spend, and Bimsy plans a week of family dinners, kids' plates included, with one shopping list split by shop. Cook from what's already in your fridge, snap a plate for a quick calorie check, and keep fussy eaters happy at teatime.

Pick your usual UK supermarket or US grocery store for estimated costs in local units. We'd love to hear what you think.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-13

Every step of your plan rewritten in plain language, with a picture showing you
the technique.

Measurements you can actually track. Log your length, a shed count or your
ponytail from the + button, and see all of it on Progress.

Poof now reads your progress and says something about it, only ever based on the
numbers you have logged.

Optional reminders: the night before a wash day, a Sunday check-in, a nudge if
you have been away, and a heads-up when a bottle is running low.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-11
