## What is The Saucery?

Where the sauce is made. Keep every recipe in one book, plan the week, and let the shopping list write itself. The same book for everyone in the house.

SAVE EVERY RECIPE
Paste a link, photograph a page of a cookbook, send a screenshot, or just describe the dish. It comes back as a proper recipe, with ingredients and steps you can cook from. A recipe belongs to the family by default, or to you alone if you would rather, and anyone in the house can leave a note on it. Any recipe can be sent to someone outside the family as a plain web page, whether or not they have the app.

ARRANGE THE WEEK
Drag dinners onto the days. Push Thursday's to Saturday when the week turns. Leftovers count as a night, and so does eating out. Mark a night cooked when it is, and the record keeps itself.

THE LIST WRITES ITSELF
Your shopping list builds from the plan, organised by aisle, topped up from the pantry staples you keep, and carrying over whatever you did not get last week. Everyone in the house watches it tick off as it happens.

COOK HANDS-FREE
One step at a time on a dark page, the screen kept awake, the ingredients for that step where you can see them. Say "next" with your hands in the flour and it turns the page. Say "repeat" and it reads the step back to you. Timers belong to the step that started them, so several can run at once without you keeping track, and they keep counting on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island after you put the phone down.

ASK WHISP
Whisp reads your book, your plan, your pantry and what you cooked last month. Ask what to do with the salmon that is defrosting and it searches your recipes, scales the one you pick, swaps what you are out of, writes the rest onto the list and puts it on Thursday.

A RECORD OF WHAT YOU CAN COOK
Every recipe is filed against the techniques, ingredients, cuisines and equipment it uses. Cook it and those are struck into your book as badges, each with a short piece on what the thing actually is. Beside them sits the plain record: what was cooked, when, by whom, and what you thought of it.

KNOW WHAT IT SHOULD COST
The Saucery watches supermarket prices on the ingredients you actually cook with, keeps their history, and tells you whether this week's deal is one. It reads Woolworths, Pak'nSave and New World, and you pick the store you shop at, because the two Foodstuffs banners price store by store. This part is New Zealand only for now.

ON EVERY SCREEN
One family, one collection. Read the whole book on a laptop, open a recipe on the phone in your hand, cook at the bench. It is the same book wherever you are standing.

FREE TO KEEP
Twenty recipes, the week's plan, the shopping list, cook mode, the whole family, the cooking record and the badges. No card, and no expiry.

SAUCERY PASS
Unlimited recipes, everything Whisp does, recipe importing and the grocery prices. Every new family gets the first seven days, with no card.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.15 — 2026-10-24

• A product you linked by mistake can be unlinked. On the screen where you link an ingredient or a staple to a store product, a linked product only showed a tick, and nothing said you could undo it. A linked product or staple now has an Unlink button beside the tick. Tap it and the link is gone, and you can link something else.

### 1.1.14 — 2026-10-23

• Long comments show how much room is left, and why one was refused. A comment over 500 characters was turned away with a vague "Couldn't add comment" and no reason. The box now counts down the characters you have left once you get close, shows how far over you are if you go past the limit, and holds the send button until it fits. If a comment is still refused, you are told why.
• Deleting a comment now asks first. Tapping the bin on a comment used to remove it at once. You are now asked "Delete comment?" and can cancel.
• Shopping list prices sit beside the item, and notes get the full width. A price like "$12.99/kg · about $3.90" took nearly half the row, so the recipe and prep notes under an item were squeezed into a narrow column many lines tall, and a longer name could wrap onto two lines. Each line now shows the item on the left and its price on the right, with the notes and the SPECIAL stamp running the full width underneath. If the name and price do not fit side by side, the price goes on its own line under the name. The price is also set a little smaller, so the item name reads first.
• Favourite a recipe from its own page. The heart was only on the recipe cards, so you had to go back to the list to favourite something you were reading. A recipe's page now has a heart at the top, next to Share. Tap it to add the recipe to your favourites, and again to take it off.
• The Lab on iPhone shows every badge. It stopped at the first 100, so whole categories were missing and badges you had earned further down never showed in Earned or in the count. It now loads all of them, the first screenful at once and the rest as they arrive.
• The iPhone app fits a resized window on a Mac or iPad. Dragging the window narrow on a Mac hid Settings and the add button behind a "…" button that opened an empty bubble. A narrow window now gets the layout from the phone, with the tab bar along the bottom and both buttons at the top. On a wide iPad or Mac window, recipe cards no longer grow to fill half the screen, and recipes, the week, the shopping list and sign-in sit in a centred column instead of stretching edge to edge.

### 1.1.13 — 2026-10-21

• See what a recipe costs to cook. With Saucery Pass and a store chosen, a recipe now says about what a serving costs at your store, such as about $3.20 a serving. It counts what goes in the pot, not the packs, so a teaspoon of salt costs a teaspoon's worth. A recipe with too few of its ingredients priced says how many are, such as 7 of 11 priced, rather than a total that is short. Tap the price on a recipe to see each ingredient's product, how much of it is used and what that comes to, and choose another product for that recipe or for every recipe.
• Sort your recipes by what they cost. Searching your recipes now offers Cheapest first, a cap of $3, $5 or $8 a serving, and a Cheap dinners filter.
• The developer API is part of Saucery Pass. API keys now need Saucery Pass, as importing and Whisp do. A family whose subscription ends keeps its keys, which start working again when it subscribes, and can still see and revoke them. Settings, API Keys now says so and offers Saucery Pass, where creating a key without it used to fail without a word.

### 1.1.12 — 2026-10-19

• Tick lines off with no signal. Ticking a line on the shopping list in a supermarket with no reception put it straight back with Couldn't tick off, so the list stopped working halfway down the aisles. A tick or an untick now stays put with no signal, is kept if you close the app, and reaches everyone else's list once your phone is back online. If someone else changed the same line in the meantime, your tick is the one that counts. Adding and removing lines still needs a connection.

### 1.1.11 — 2026-10-18

• Deleting a shopping line while someone else changes the list no longer closes the app. On iPhone, swiping a line and tapping Delete while another person in the family was ticking or removing lines could close The Saucery. The line now leaves the list as soon as you tap Delete, and comes back with a message if it could not be deleted. Deleting a line someone else has just removed is no longer an error.
