Great pizza is mostly about timing — and Kneady Pizza does the timing for you.
Tell it the style you're making and when you want to eat. It works backwards to a clear, step-by-step plan: when to mix, when it rises, when to shape, and exactly how much flour, water, salt and yeast to weigh — all from proper baker's percentages.
NO MORE GUESSWORK
• Pick a style — Neapolitan, New York, Roman, Detroit, Sicilian, focaccia and more — and the recipe is seeded for you.
• Set your serve time; the app plans the whole rise around it.
• Yeast and timings adjust to your kitchen's temperature (fetch it automatically or set it by hand).
• Tight on time? It warms the proof and nudges the yeast to fit your window before ever suggesting a quick dough.
A PLAN THAT FITS REAL LIFE
• Quick, Cold or Warm proof — choose your pace.
• Sleep-aware scheduling shifts hands-on steps out of the middle of the night.
• "Start baking now" locks your times so they never drift when you reopen the app.
• A Currently Cooking banner brings you back to the exact step you're on.
COOK FROM YOUR PHONE
• Landscape cooking mode: one step per screen, swipe to move on, double-tap to tick it off.
• Tap any step to read it full-screen, with a big clock pill for its timing notes.
• Each step explains what to do, the kit you'll need, what to watch out for, and the why behind it.
FOR THE SERIOUS BAKER
• A water temperature (DDT) calculator works out exactly what to mix your water at — with friction presets for hand kneading, a stand mixer or a spiral mixer.
• Seven real flour presets — Caputo Pizzeria, King Arthur Bread Flour, All Trumps and more — each nudging hydration to suit.
• Every slider now doubles as a typed exact number.
• An illustrated poke-test guide appears right on the final proof step: underproofed, ready, or past its best.
• Check on a bake from the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island — no need to reopen the app to see how much longer the rise has left.
• A real, sourced pizza history quiz — 21 questions on where every style actually comes from, with myths clearly flagged as myths.
KID MODE — MAKE PIZZA TOGETHER
• A big, fun, mess-and-giggles mode for little chefs, with huge fonts, jokes and confetti.
• Pick a pizza — Hawaiian, Margherita, Dino Pepperoni and more — or build your own and save it.
• Choose the dough: "Right now!" (ready in about 30 minutes) or "Puffy & bouncy".
• One giant animated step at a time, in kid words, with a grown-up hand-off for the hot oven.
• The chef reacts to what you actually made, and finishing a pizza earns a real sticker for your collection.
• A silly six-question pizza trivia round of its own.
• Four modes to match your household — Kid, Villager, Pizzaiolo or Roman — from playful to full control.
PLAN THE WHOLE NIGHT
• Choose classic pizzas — Margherita, Marinara, Diavola, Capricciosa, Prosciutto and more.
• Get a scaled shopping list for dough and toppings, with rough cost estimates.
MADE TO ENJOY
• Two looks: calm Classic or bold Vibrant.
• Gluten-free mode with the right hydration and binders.
• Friendly tips, facts and the odd terrible pizza joke along the way.
