Your recipes, beautifully kept. weReci is a quiet home for the recipes that matter to you — gathered from anywhere, easy to cook from, and always yours. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE Share a link, a photo of a handwritten card, or a cooking video into your cookbook straight from any app's share sheet. weReci reads it, tidies it up, and credits where it came from. The typing is done for you. The cooking stays yours. SCAN THE PAGE Point the camera at a cookbook spread or an index card and the text lifts off the page — a grandparent's handwriting included. COOK FROM IT A step-by-step cook mode built for the stove rather than the screen. Scale a recipe to the number of people at the table, swap an ingredient you don't have, and move between steps with a wave of your hand when they're covered in flour. ON THE BIG SCREEN Put Cook Mode on the TV: an Apple TV through AirPlay, a Chromecast or Google TV, or any screen with a browser. The step goes up in type you can read from across the kitchen, and your phone stays the remote. FIND IT AGAIN Search the way you actually think. Ask for a cozy weeknight dinner and get the dishes, not the word matches. Or drop in a photo and search by what it sees. IT CURATES ITSELF Your collection organizes into shelves worth browsing, resurfacing things you'd forgotten you had — connected by ingredients, people, places, and seasons. SHOP TOGETHER Build a shopping list from any set of recipes, sorted by the aisles you actually walk, and share it with whoever is at the store. Both phones stay in step: a tick from one shows up on the other. NOT ONLY RECIPES Letters in a grandparent's handwriting, the kids' art too good for the fridge door, ticket stubs and postcards. They keep here too, shelved beside the dishes. SHARE DELIBERATELY Pass a recipe to the few people who matter, or share a whole cookbook with one other person and cook from it together. No feed, no followers, no audience to perform for. IN YOUR LANGUAGE The whole app in 17 languages, and recipes that translate for whoever is reading them — saved in one language, cooked in another. YOURS, AND STAYING THAT WAY Export or delete your collection at any time. We don't sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use your collection to train models. AI here is transparent and optional — see what it does, bring your own key, dial it down, or switch it off entirely. Free while we grow. Your recipes come with you if you ever leave.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: weReci at 5.0 against GrabScanGo's 2.6. weReci also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks). GrabScanGo's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
