Every night, millions of people stare into the fridge at 5pm, paralyzed by the same question: what should we eat? Eats just answers it. Tell it about your household—who you cook for; what you like; what you avoid. Then let it predict your week. Swipe to see alternatives. Tap to tweak. Done. JUST TWO THINGS • Predicts what you're going to eat this week • Tells you what to buy to make it happen That's it. No recipes to manage. No ingredient lists to maintain. No meal prep guilt. HOW IT WORKS Eats learns based on your meal plans. It notices patterns, respects preferences, and predicts a week of dinners that feel like something you'd actually make. Don't like a suggestion? Swipe for alternatives or type your own. The grocery list updates automatically. SYNC ACROSS DEVICES Plan on your phone, check the list on your iPad at the store. iCloud keeps everything in sync. --- Free to use with on-device AI (iPhone 16+ with Apple Intelligence).

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: The Food Plan at 15.1 against Eats's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
