What's New in Cook Units

1.7.1

October 11, 2026

- Added 9 ingredients: Puff Pastry Dough Squares, Chinkiang Black Vinegar, Douchi, Tian Mian Jiang, Chili Crisp, Sichuan Peppercorns, Cassia Bark, Dried Lily Buds, and Mung Bean Starch. - Added translation caching for recipe notes, avoiding repeated translations while the original notes remain unchanged. - Improved translation formatting to preserve line breaks in recipe notes. !! Important note on translation quality: On devices that support Apple Intelligence, Cook Units uses Apple’s higher-fidelity translation models for more fluent translations and better preservation of formatting. This requires iOS/iPadOS 26.4 or later and an Apple Intelligence-enabled device: iPhone 15 Pro/15 Pro Max or iPhone 16 and later, or iPad mini (A17 Pro) and iPad models with M1 or later. Apple Intelligence must also be enabled and available for your language and region. On other devices, Cook Units automatically uses Apple’s traditional translation models. Translation remains available, but formatting and translation quality may differ. Thanks for using Cook Units!

Toute les recette on disparu

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi les recette on disparu depuis ce matin

Not a full recipe resizer

I was looking for an app that I could copy and paste into the app and it would take a 5 serving recipe and scale it down for 2 servings.
