## What is PizzaGiusta?

PizzaGiusta plans your homemade pizza dough from the time you want to bake. It works offline, with no account, no ads and no tracking: your recipes and photos stay on your phone.

Pick the pizza, how much you want and when to bake: the app calculates the dough and the yeast, splits the hours between the fridge and room temperature, then guides you step by step to the oven.

START FROM YOUR BAKE TIME
• A 5-step planner: pizza, amount, oven, timing and dough
• One sentence explains your plan: "Finish the dough today at 9:00 PM and put it in the fridge. Take it out tomorrow at 3:00 PM and leave it out 5 h before baking."
• With or without the fridge: pick "No fridge" and bake the same day
• Move the bake and the app offers to move the end of mixing too

PAN PIZZA AND ROUND PIZZA
• Pan pizza for sheet pans and trays (Detroit-style, Sicilian, Roman-style): pan size in cm and thickness
• Round pizza in dough balls, baked on the stone, Neapolitan-style
• Flour, water, salt, oil and yeast to the gram: fresh, dry (instant) or dried sourdough
• The yeast follows your proofing hours and your kitchen temperature
• Suggested flour strength (W), with what it means
• Adjustable dough hydration, with warnings when a value is out of range

STEP BY STEP, WITH TIMERS
• Guides you through every step: dividing the dough, out of the fridge, preheating, baking
• Pan pizza with a tried and tested three-bake method, with a timer for each bake
• Alerts to take the dough out, preheat the oven and bake, even with the app closed
• Alerts for the key steps get through Focus and Do Not Disturb
• Home Screen widgets that show the next step: tick it off with "Done"
• Apple Watch app with the timer of the dough in progress

YOUR RECIPES AND BAKE DIARY
• Save every dough and make it again with one tap
• A diary of your bakes, with a rating and a note for next time
• Favorites, archive, search and comparison between two recipes
• Photos of the result and the full recipe to share

PRIVACY
• Works without internet
• No account, no ads, no tracking
• Recipes and photos stay on your phone and you can delete them anytime

Available in English, Italian, German, French and Spanish.

• Shared recipes now arrive complete on WhatsApp too: a text with amounts, yeast and times, plus a link to get the app. Photos stay in the app.

• “Turn on reminders” now asks for notification permission right away, without going through Settings.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-10-11

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-05
