Save any recipe. Cook it tonight. Send Munch a link from TikTok, Instagram or YouTube, a recipe from any cooking site, or a photo of a page from a cookbook. It comes back as a real recipe — ingredients, steps and timings — in one place you can actually cook from. WHAT YOU CAN SEND IT • Videos from TikTok, Instagram and YouTube — including the ones where the recipe is only ever said out loud • Any recipe site or food blog • A screenshot, or a photo of a printed page • Text you paste from anywhere No more scrolling back through saved posts trying to find the one you meant to make. PLAN THE WEEK Put the recipes you have saved onto the days you will cook them. Munch fills the gaps if you would rather it chose. ONE LIST, ONE CART Every ingredient for the week lands on a single shopping list, combined and tidied. Connect a Kroger account and send the whole list to your cart in one step. A PHOTO FOR EVERY DISH Recipes arrive with a photograph Munch made for them, so a recipe you saved from a video is as good to look at as one from a cookbook. MADE YOURS • Scale any recipe to the number of people eating • Tell Munch what you don't eat, and it stays out of the way • Keep your spice rack on file, so recipes work with what you already own • Cook mode with step timers, for when the phone is on the counter Munch Pro unlocks unlimited imports, fifty new recipes a month, a photograph on every recipe including the ones you import, and per-serving nutrition. Munch works without it. Terms of Service -- https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy -- https://munchai.app/privacy-policy
