## What is MealSmith?

A beautiful home for every recipe in your life.

BRING IN RECIPES FROM ALMOST ANYWHERE

Paste a link from the web and MealSmith turns it into a clean, beautiful recipe. Skip the ads, life story and pop-ups. Bring in recipes from TikTok, Instagram or YouTube, or snap a photo from a book, magazine or recipe card. MealSmith strips it back to what matters, while keeping the original link if you need it.

SAVE THE DISHES YOU KNOW BY HEART

Some of your best dishes are just rough notes, memory or habit. Describe a dish by voice, type what you remember, or photograph something handwritten, and MealSmith will turn it into something structured, saved and ready to cook from.

COOK UP SOMETHING NEW TOGETHER

Not sure what to make with what you have? Want to recreate something you ate last week? Planning dinner for friends? MealSmith works with you in conversation, asking the right questions and shaping the recipe as you go.

MAKE EVERY RECIPE YOUR OWN

Every recipe in MealSmith is editable, not just the ones you wrote yourself. Adjust ingredients, change the method, or ask MealSmith to help modify it in context. Change the number of servings and every ingredient adjusts automatically. Add personal notes too: tweaks that worked, swaps you made, and things to remember next time.

ORGANIZE IT YOUR WAY

Group recipes into your own collections: weeknight meals, a dinner party, your mum’s recipes, whatever makes sense to you. Star the ones you love. Save what you're planning to cook next. Tap any tag to see everything else like it. Your library, arranged the way you actually think about food.

FIND ANYTHING FAST

Search by name, ingredient or tag, or browse by cuisine, protein and meal type. No results? Create something new instead.

COOK WITHOUT DISTRACTION

MealSmith gives you a focused cooking view. Full screen, large type, one step at a time. Tap anywhere to advance, and your screen stays on. Swipe to ingredients whenever you need them. Then, when you're done, add a photo to remember how it turned out.

SHARE, EXPORT AND PRINT

Send a recipe to anyone, export it as a beautifully formatted PDF, or print it out. Your recipes are ready to go wherever you need them.

MADE FOR HOW YOU COOK

MealSmith adapts recipes to your region, so cilantro becomes coriander, zucchini becomes courgette, and cups can become grams. Saved recipes work offline, and iCloud keeps your library backed up.

SIMPLE BY DESIGN

No ads. No social feed. No algorithm deciding what you should cook. Just a clear, well-designed place for the recipes that matter to you.

MEALSMITH UNLIMITED

Add up to ten recipes with every feature included. No sign-up, no card required. When you're ready for more, MealSmith Unlimited removes the recipe limit. One subscription covers everyone on your Apple Family plan. That's it.

Your recipes, beautifully kept.

I’ve only had this app for a few days and already can’t imagine cooking without it! It’s so easy to use and has opened up so many meal options for me and my family. Plus it’s saving me so much time! Five stars all the way.

The app is straightforward to use, well organised and has helped me build a personal recipe collection that I can access whenever I want. It’s made meal planning much easier and would happily recommend it to anyone who enjoys cooking and wants a simple way to store and manage their own recipes.

### 5/5 — So much better than screenshots

*2026-06-23*

I usually just screenshot recipes or save them somewhere and then forget about them. This is much better because you can turn them into proper recipes and keep them in one place. I like being able to add notes too, especially if you change something when you make it and want to remember for next time.

### 5/5 — The best recipe app!

*2026-06-23*

This app is great! It’s so easy to save all the recipes I love from Instagram. I can even take photos of recipes from the books I own and keep them all in one place. I especially like being able to modify the recipes to my taste. I simply speak in my edits and the app amends the recipe and method for me. It’s magic!
