## What is Handed Down Kitchen?

Handed Down Kitchen is a private recipe box for your family: the handwritten cards, the "add a pinch of this" recipes that only live in someone's head, and the stories that go with them.

KEEP THE RECIPE AND THE PERSON
Every recipe remembers who it came from, with a photo of the original card in their handwriting. Record Grandma telling the story behind her turkey, in her own words, and keep it with the recipe.

SCAN THE CARDS
Take a photo of a recipe card, even a faded handwritten one, and it's typed up for you to check.

SEE WHERE A RECIPE HAS BEEN
Mark where a recipe began and every place it's been made since, and watch its journey on a map, from the farm kitchen in 1952 to your first apartment.

COOK THE BIG MEAL TOGETHER
Plan Thanksgiving with everyone pitching in. Choose who's making each dish, and whether they're cooking it there or bringing it ready. Everyone gets their own grocery list and a timeline worked back from dinner: when to start, when to leave, when it goes in the oven, and a reminder to preheat. Guests who aren't in the app get a link of their own.

A SCRAPBOOK OF THE DAY
Everyone adds photos as the day goes, and links to videos of the blessing and the toasts. Afterward, tell the story of the day in your words or your voice, and print the scrapbook or send it as a PDF, in a classic, scrapbook or instant-photo style. Each dish is kept on its recipe, so next year you'll remember who made it.

MADE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Invite everyone, from the grandkids to the great-aunts. Each person signs in with their own email, no passwords to remember. Larger text, read-aloud steps and a hands-free Cook Mode make it easy at the stove.

PRINT A COOKBOOK, OR ONE JUST FOR THEM
Turn your recipe box into a printable family cookbook, with each recipe's story, its original card, and QR codes that play the recordings. Or make one for one person: a child leaving home, a newlywed, a first apartment. Add a note in your own words, the song you two share, and a message in your voice, alongside Grandma's.

YOUR RECIPES ARE YOURS
No ads, no tracking. Download everything, any time.

Try the sample kitchen first: a made-up family's recipe box you can look around in the app without signing up. See two cookbooks printed from it, a family's and one made for a child leaving home, at handeddownkitchen.com/samples

SUBSCRIPTION
Every new recipe box is free for 14 days, then $19.99 a year or $2.99 a month (prices may vary by country). Payment is charged to your Apple ID when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless it's turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it in Settings, under your name, then Subscriptions. Family members you invite don't need a subscription of their own.
