## What is MiNoms?

Collect, organize, and cook your favorite recipes in an app that respects your privacy. No subscriptions, no ads, no accounts, and no tracking.

Built specifically for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
 
COOK WITHOUT THE CLUTTER
Ingredients and preparation steps are displayed side-by-side in independently scrollable lists. This way, you don't have to constantly switch between different sections. Check off ingredients and steps as you cook, and prevent your screen from turning off.
You can even scroll or check off items hands-free by using simple hand gestures recognized by your device's front-facing camera.
 
IMPORT RECIPES FROM ANYWHERE
Import recipes from websites, PDFs, text, HTML files, Paprika App recipe files, photos, your camera, or your microphone. Then customize recipes with your own notes, edits, ratings, tags, and images.
 
FIND RECIPES FAST
Search your entire collection by recipe name, ingredients, notes, ratings, favorites, or tags. Combine multiple filters to instantly find the right recipe, even within large collections. Create your own categories and tags to organize your personal cookbook exactly the way you want it.
 
SYNC ACROSS ALL YOUR APPLE DEVICES
Your recipes automatically sync across your Apple devices using iCloud with no account setup required.
 
SCALE AND ORGANIZE RECIPES
Scale recipes up or down for any serving size. Organize ingredients into groups to keep multi-part recipes clear and easy to follow.
 
PLAN MEALS AND SHOPPING LISTS
Create shopping lists and meal plans for individual days, entire weeks, or even a month in advance.

### 5/5 — awesome and handy

*2025-07-25*

love all the features in this app and it’s super easy to get the hang of!

### 5/5 — Pure Gold

*2024-05-12*

This recipe organizer is jam-packed with useful features, with none of the annoyances we’ve been conditioned to expect with App Store products. Hurray for MiNoms!!  I’ll be telling all my friends and family about it. Thank you, Pete!!

### 5/5 — recipe manager

*2024-04-27*

Very nice app. does what is suppose to do.

### 5/5 — And now I can categorise!

*2024-02-12*

Update Feb 24 - update to app is great! Recipes all neatly organised!

I really like this app and have it on all my devices - helpful when you’re shopping! Only thing is I would like to categorise the recipes - mains, desserts, baking etc and can’t see how.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! 

Right now the best way to categorize recipes is using tags (from the last tab of the recipe screens), you can add as many tags as you like to a recipe, then once you've added a tag you can search from the main menu for those tags (change the search type from 'title' to 'tag' and enter the tag name).

I've been thinking about ways to make the tags browsable, but I haven't worked out the details, hopefully that will come in a future release. In the meantime I hope that searching them will work for now.

If you have any other questions or suggestions feel free to email us at support@minoms.com, thanks!

### 3/5 — nicht so schlecht

*2023-06-01, version 1.0*

war  am Anfang schwierig etwas reinzuschreiben
kann man vielleicht einfacher machen

### 3/5 — not happy

*2023-02-11, version 1.0*

Unable to delete unwanted recepis or add notes

### 5/5 — Excellent recipe App

*2023-02-03*

Totally easy to use recipe app. Hands free thing is a great touch

### 2/5 — Keine 5 Sterne wert

*2023-01-25, version 1.0.113*

Die 5 Sterne Bewertungen ist doch gekauft. Die App ist noch sehr unausgereift und kaum zu benutzen. Die Steuerung ist nervig und die zwangsweise Querformat Anzeige der Rezepte nervt. Der Import ist nett, aber für Rezepte aus dem Netz hab ich Lesezeichen.

### 5/5 — Wer gerne kocht wird diese App lieben!

*2023-01-20, version 1.0.113*

Mein Highlight ist definitiv der Kochmodus ! 

Wer kennt das nicht auch, man findet im Internet ein leckeres Rezept und will es nachkochen. Die Zutaten stehen i.d.R oben und danach kommen die Anweisungen. Meistens weiß ich unten schon nicht mehr wieviel ich von was benötige und so  scrolle ich dauernd hoch und runter. Wenn ich überhaupt dazu komme, da meistens duzend nervige Werbeanzeigen aufpoppen  und das Rezept total verdecken. Nervig oder? 

Deswegen liebe ich diese App und den Kochmodus so sehr ! Jetzt lade ich meine Rezepte einfach aus dem Internet herunter und verwende den Kochmodus - die Zutaten und Anweisungen sind alle nebeneinander angeordnet und man kann die Listen unabhängig voneinander bewegen. Endlich alles auf einem Blick und keine Werbung mehr !

Mega finde ich auch, das man den Kochmodus auch kontaktlos verwenden kann - ohne den Bildschirm zu berühren nur mit Handgesten! Diese Funktion werde ich sicher noch öfter benutzen - vor allem beim backen.

Meine Rezeptsammlung ist mittlerweile sehr groß und die verschiedenen Suchfunktionen der App sind sehr hilfreich und Rezepte teilen geht auch super easy.

Die App sieht super aus und macht mega viel Spaß!  

Ich sag nur  nom nom - MiNoms !

### 5/5 — BEST RECIPE/COOKING APP EVER!

*2022-12-16*

I’ve tried so many recipe apps but NONE have this nice of an interface! The split screen for recipes and ingredients is genius and I love how it can pull recipes from anywhere!
