Focara Kitchen is a warm, personal recipe box for the dishes your family actually cooks — the card from Grandma's tin, the screenshot you saved last week, the blog recipe buried under ads. SAVE EVERY RECIPE, EVERY WAY • Paste a link and import from almost any recipe website • Snap photos of cookbooks, cards, and handwritten notes — smart scanning reads them into clean ingredients and steps, and strips the clutter • Or just type it in with a fast, structured editor COOK HANDS-FREE • Cook Mode keeps the screen awake with big, readable steps • Easy Read highlights the ingredients inside each step, so a glance is enough with your hands full • Tap any step's timer to start it — timers keep running if you leave the recipe, and survive closing the app • Run multiple recipes at once and switch between them without losing your place MAKE EVERY RECIPE YOUR OWN • Scale servings and watch the amounts adjust • Save your changes as versions — keep the original, and the way YOU make it • Jot notes after each cook: what worked, what to change, how it turned out • Show amounts in US or metric, per recipe or app-wide DINNER, READY TOGETHER • Plan a meal and Focara builds the cooking timeline backwards from serve time • Each dish gets its own start alarm, so everything lands hot at once • Start cooking right from the timeline and move dish to dish A SHOPPING LIST THAT SORTS ITSELF • Add a recipe's ingredients in one tap — duplicates merge automatically • The list organizes by store section: produce, dairy, meat, pantry • Plain water never clutters your list (it's assumed on hand — tap to restore) SHARE ANY RECIPE • Send anyone a beautiful, ad-free web page of your recipe — no app required • The link shows the photo, ingredients, and steps, ready to cook from MADE FOR REAL KITCHENS • Fully localized in 34 languages, including recipe scanning • Your recipe box lives on your device — export everything, anytime • Free to use with ads; Focara Kitchen Pro removes all ads for less than a dollar a month "Focara" comes from an old word for hearth — the warm center of the home where food and family meet. That's what this app wants to be for your recipes. FOCARA KITCHEN PRO (OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION) Pro removes every ad. Nothing else is locked behind it — the whole recipe box is free. • Focara Kitchen Pro Monthly — $0.99 per month • Focara Kitchen Pro Yearly — $5.99 per year Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
