Open Tastetale and start with one dish—slowly build your cooking into a recipe collection of your own. You can add recipes manually. Or, if you’re a lazy cook, just take a photo of a dish and quickly recognize the name, ingredients, steps, taste, cooking time, difficulty, and calories. In a few taps, it’s saved to your recipe box—no more tedious typing of every ingredient and step. Every dish can become a sticker, saved to your calendar and cooking wall (use the Home Screen widget to show this month’s saves and cooking overview, log homemade recipes and baking formulas, and track your cooking). You’ll also get a weekly cooking report—a gentle reminder that this week, you actually made quite a few delicious things. Core features - Photo recipe recognition: Take a photo or pick one from your library to quickly recognize the dish name, ingredients, and method—great for lazy cooks who still want to log what they make. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner; healthy, fat-loss, or low-sugar meals; Cantonese, Northeastern, Fujian, Chinese, Western, or baking; pregnancy recipes or baby food—recognize them all with ease and build your own recipes more easily. - Discover menus: Personalized recipe recommendations based on your dietary preferences, including breakfast, home-style dishes, world cuisine (French, Spanish, Western), traditional Chinese cuisine (Cantonese, Shanghai, Beijing, Shaanxi, Sichuan), soups, and staples like rice, noodles, and dumplings. - Shopping cart: Add ingredients to a shopping cart as a shopping checklist / memo. - Food stickers: Photos automatically become food stickers to capture everyday life. - Food wall: Add a widget on your iPhone Home Screen to browse your sticker wall. - Calendar review: See what you cooked by date and plan meals more easily. - Cloud sync: iCloud sync so you can browse recipes on iPhone and iPad. - Text recognition: In camera mode, quickly recognize printed or handwritten recipes—handy for importing old handwritten formulas and bringing all your recipes together. - Share recipes: Share ingredients and steps so friends can learn your signature dishes. - Editable: Adjust amounts and steps to your taste and create your own version. - Save & manage: Save go-to recipes; automatically organized by ingredients for easy finding. Who it’s for - Food lovers who want a system for collecting everyday recipes - Food creators who cook but don’t want to type everything out - Kitchen beginners learning to cook, logging what they made this month, and improving over time - Chefs / food developers documenting formulas and new dishes Subscriptions Upgrade to unlock more recognition uses, plus benefits like iCloud sync and watermark-free recipe sharing.
