## What is Hijo?

Hijo is a weekboard for family recipes. Photograph a handwritten or printed card, confirm the pantry lines and steps, save the dish in the family book, then drop it onto a night.

Open the app, tick User Agreement, and tap Create a Recipe. After Apple’s tracking and notification prompts, you land on This week. Sunday through Saturday sit as a photo rail. Tap a filled night to open the large dish photo, leftover note, and Open recipe. Empty nights show Open night and Add a recipe.

Family book lists every saved dish with a large Sunday Roast feature card. Search and filter Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, or Bake. Open a dish to scale servings. Pinches and “to taste” stay marked Confirm by hand. Make a recipe card previews a JPEG without spending a Plate. Generate card spends 1 Plate when the file saves. Add to this week places the dish on a night.
