## What is My Recipes +?

Turn scattered recipes into a cookbook that is truly yours.

My Recipes brings together family notes, favorite websites, magazine clippings, photos and voice recordings in one private, beautifully organized library. It works on iPhone and iPad, remains available offline, and keeps changes up to date across your devices through your private iCloud account.

BUILD YOUR COOKBOOK
• Create as many visual categories as you like, with a name, photo and custom order.
• Save ingredients exactly as written, preparation time, servings, rating, favorites and personal notes.
• Add text, photos, web links and audio recordings to individual preparation steps.
• Connect related recipes—such as a tart and its pastry, pasta and its sauce, or a main course and its side—and reuse their ingredients.
• Search by name or ingredient, then sort and browse in a true grid or list.

IMPORT WITHOUT RETYPING
• Import a recipe from a web page and review the reconstructed fields before saving.
• Scan a book, handwritten note or magazine page with the camera. On-device OCR reads the text and rebuilds a draft recipe for you.
• Read a saved photo, PDF, Word document or text file to turn an existing recipe document into an editable draft.
• Bring in editable MyCookBook archives, including backups exported by earlier versions.

PLAN THE SHOPPING
• Add scaled ingredients from one or more recipes to a grouped shopping list.
• Check off items as you shop and always see live progress.
• Share the list or add all unchecked items to a chosen Apple Reminders list in one step—ideal for a shared household list and Siri.

COOK WITH CONFIDENCE
• Follow one clear step at a time in Cook Mode.
• Start several preset or custom timers for the same recipe.
• Timers keep accurate time in the background and can notify you when they finish.

PRIVATE, PORTABLE AND SAFE
• No advertising, no third-party tracking and no developer account.
• Your library remains available offline and syncs privately through iCloud when enabled.
• Export a complete editable backup, a PDF recipe or a CSV summary whenever you want.
• Fully localized in English, Italian, French, German and Spanish.

The free version stores up to 15 recipes. A single non-consumable in-app purchase unlocks unlimited recipes. Customers who purchased the full version previously keep their access and can restore it from Settings.

Made for iOS 18 and the latest iOS and iPadOS experience.

### 3/5 — Can’t change the number of servings

*2020-08-29*

This is not a bad app, but it would be nice to be able to adjust the number of servings once the whole recipe has been entered. You don’t make something for the same number of people every time, after all.

Example: I found a recipe online that was designed with six servings in mind. I entered all the data, including the amount of each ingredient, as set for six. I expected that I would be able to adjust the number of servings whenever I used a recipe, turns out you can’t.
