Conveniently enter your own recipes with one touch from the home screen, directly import a recipe you found online or from another Recipe Box user that has sent you their recipe! With this App, you can now take your Recipe Box with you! Some of the features: โ€ข Sync and backup your recipes over the cloud - use Recipe Box on your iPhone and iPad and the recipes will sync between the two! โ€ข Recipe Box is now has an additional sharing feature we think you'll love - send your recipe file via mail to another person using Recipe Box, allowing them to import your recipe directly into their app via a file attachment (Recipe Box automatically generates and attaches the file to the email). โ€ข Import recipes from the internet directly into your Recipe Box without any fuss!
