You are standing in front of the fridge with no idea what to make. Snappmat solves exactly that. Photograph what you have at home. Snappmat recognises the ingredients and suggests recipes you can actually cook with them, not recipes that need three things you do not have. You see straight away what you already have and what is missing. Anything missing goes on a shopping list sorted by where it sits in the shop. HOW IT WORKS Photograph the fridge, the pantry, or whatever you have put out on the counter. Check the ingredient list. Add, edit or remove. Get recipe suggestions ranked by how much of what you have they use. Cook. NUTRITION THAT IS CALCULATED Calories and macros are calculated from the recipe's actual ingredient weights, not guessed by a language model. The numbers are shown rounded, because that is as precise as you need. ALSO IN THE APP Weekly planning. Put recipes on the days of the week and get one combined shopping list. Saved recipes and ratings, so you can find your way back to what worked. Dietary preferences: vegetarian, vegan, and the option to exclude ingredients you do not want. Swedish and English. SNAPPMAT PREMIUM Free: scan and cook. Premium: unlimited scans, weekly planning and more dietary filters. Snappmat is an AI assistant, not a guarantee. Always check the ingredient list before you cook, particularly if someone in the household has allergies. The app is not intended for allergy management.
