What's New in Nombook

1.3.0

September 14, 2026

Turn a recipe list into a menu. Pick a layout — List, Fine dining, Illustrated, Cute, Chalkboard or Omakase — and Nombook draws your list as a menu you can send as a picture. Each one has a shape of its own, so a dinner for four and a week of meals both come out looking like a menu rather than a long scroll. Fix a step while you're cooking. Tap the pencil in cook mode to change the wording, the timer or the photo without leaving the walkthrough, and add a note and photos on the finish screen alongside your rating. Bringing in a recipe you've saved somewhere else is easier too: paste its link, or send the post to Nombook from the share sheet. If the recipe is only in the pictures, import screenshots of it instead.

无敌的软件

界面非常可爱,功能比想象的多很多,使用起来非常舒服,无敌

I love it and will keep using it

So cute, but also actually useful! It’s super easy to save and organize my recipes, and I love being able to add my own notes and photos. The recipe-sharing feature is probably my favorite—I can send a whole recipe to a friend instead of taking a million screenshots. Everything works smoothly and is really easy to figure out. Definitely one of those apps I’ll keep using!

Cute, free recipe app, and it just works

I didn't expect to like this as much as I do. It's genuinely cute — the little hand-drawn art makes opening it feel nice instead of like a chore. And it's simple. I put a recipe in and I can find it again. That's more than I can say for the last three apps I tried.

The meal planning is what made me stick with it. Being able to actually lay out the week and have the shopping sort itself out is the thing I always wanted and never got.

Also it's free, with no account and nothing trying to upsell me. That still surprises me.

基本上很好,有些问题

我目前加入菜单发现的是,每次一点做菜步骤,就无法滑动查看修改。所以修改必须要滑动到错误的地方修改一次,确认之后再点击需要编辑,再经过食材整理啊之类的,然后再精准滑到错误的步骤位置,这点对我来说太困难了。

Response from developer

谢谢反馈!最新版本已经支持在编辑做菜步骤时滑动查看和修改啦,不用再反复退出、重新进入编辑,可以更新试试~

What kind of notes can I add to recipes in Nombook?

Is Nombook suitable for young children?

Nombook has an age rating of 17+, indicating it is intended for mature users. This is likely due to the complexity of features or potential content that may not be suitable for younger audiences.
