About

Schlapp's Recipe Buddy

Features
Read full description

The family table, remembered. Recipe Buddy is a private cookbook and meal diary you share with your family. Collect the recipes you actually cook, capture the meals worth remembering, plan the week ahead, and keep it all in one place โ€” no ads, no clutter. COLLECT RECIPES THE EASY WAY Snap a cookbook page or handwritten card, paste notes, or drop in a link, and Recipe Buddy tidies the mess into clean ingredients, steps, tags and an estimated calorie count. Photo text is read on your device; turning it into a structured recipe uses a secure cloud helper. BUILT FOR HOW YOU EAT Tag recipes your own way โ€” Fast 800, Mediterranean, Low Cal, Vegetarian and more โ€” with an estimated calorie count per serving and a calorie-cap filter. Scale any recipe to the number of people at the table. A KITCHEN-FRIENDLY COOKING MODE Full-screen steps, big readable text, and one-tap timers on the steps that need them. The screen stays awake while you cook. REMEMBER THE MEALS, NOT JUST THE RECIPES Keep a diary of meals at home and dinners out. Add photos, who was there, and a personal rating of how much you enjoyed it. Photos can fill in the date and place automatically, and a timeline and map show everywhere you've cooked and eaten. DINING OUT, WORTH RECREATING Log restaurant visits dish by dish with menu and plated photos, then flag the ones you want to make at home and link them to your own recipes. DRINKS WORTH REMEMBERING Keep a list of wines, beers, ciders and spirits โ€” what to buy for dinner and the favourites worth repeating. Snap a label and the key details fill themselves in. PLAN THE WEEK, BUILD THE LIST Drop recipes onto a weekly planner, see the calories for each day, and send the ingredients straight to your Apple Reminders shopping list. SHARE WITH YOUR FAMILY โ€” AND BEYOND One login covers the whole family, and everything is shared automatically between members. Send a single recipe, memory or drink to another family with a code, or push it straight into their "Shared with us" inbox โ€” which they can accept, dismiss, report or block. KEEP A COPY Export any recipe, memory, dining entry or drink as a polished PDF or Word document, complete with its photos. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads. No third-party tracking or analytics. Your recipes, photos and memories belong to your family. Sign in with Apple or Google to get started.
