## What is TapCook?

1. Enter your ZIP and pick the grocery store you actually shop at

2. Tell us how many you're feeding, which nights you cook, and what you want to spend

3. Get a week of dinners and one grocery list, totalled at your store

TapCook plans your dinners for the week and tells you what the groceries will cost before you leave the house.

Instead of deciding at 6pm, scrolling for ideas, and finding out the damage at the register, TapCook builds the week and the shopping list together — and keeps the total under the budget you set. Tick off the staples already in your cupboard and they come off the bill, this week and every week after. Don't like a dinner? Swap it and the list updates.

TapCook is currently available for US grocery stores only.

*Prices in TapCook are estimates, not live prices from any retailer. They start from a national reference price for each ingredient and are adjusted for the chain and region you choose. Real prices change often and vary by branch, so your checkout total will differ. TapCook is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any grocery store, and store names are used only to show which one a plan was priced against.

*Always review ingredients, measurements, cooking instructions, food-safety guidance, and allergy information before cooking. Dietary and "won't eat" settings are a convenience, not an allergen control.

TapCook 2.0 is a completely new app.

TapCook now plans your dinners for the week and prices the whole grocery list at the store you actually shop at — so you know the total before you leave the house.

• Pick your real local grocery store from your ZIP
• Set a budget and TapCook builds the week to come in under it
• One shopping list, totalled, with a price on every item
• Tick the staples already in your cupboard and they come off the bill for good
• Swap any dinner you don't want and the list updates

Updating from an older version? Open the Plan tab to choose your store and build your first week.

The recipe-saving features have been retired and the screens that went with them are gone.

US grocery stores only for now.
