Respins is a recipe browser for the Ninja CREAMi. Browse a community catalog, filter it by what you actually have, and keep track of every pint in your freezer. FILTERS THAT ANSWER REAL QUESTIONS High protein, no refined sugar, dairy-free, vegan, or without one specific ingredient. The ingredient filters understand families, so "no gum" covers xanthan, guar and tara at once, and the app says so when it can't be sure about a recipe instead of guessing. YOUR FREEZER, IN ONE PLACE Start a freeze from any recipe and every pint gets a countdown. Ready pints rise to the top, and the app badge counts the ones waiting for a spin. MAKE IT YOURS Save favorites, sort them into collections, log every spin with notes, and write or import your own recipes. Paste a link and the recipe is read for you. Everything syncs across devices with a free account, and every recipe has a short link you can share. Nutrition is estimated from the ingredients themselves, not typed in by hand, so the macros hold up when you scale a recipe or swap the pint size.
