"What's for dinner?" Menu Semaine lets you answer it however you like: by hand, one slot at a time, or by asking for a hand. You plan your week, the app turns it into a shopping list, and nothing pushes you to do it any other way. Your week, your way Add your dishes one by one, change your mind, move a dinner. Breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner: you decide everything. The app is a complete meal planner even if you never touch the AI, and it never puts it in your way. Share your meals Invite your group by username: family, partner or housemates, everyone sees and edits the same week, each from their own phone. Whoever goes to the store knows what to buy, whoever cooks knows what to make. Your Apple or Google account keeps your group, even on a new phone. Creating a group is part of Premium; joining one is free. AI, when you want a hand On the evenings when nothing comes to mind, the app's AI suggests a seasonal dish, fills the empty slots, invents a recipe from what's left in your fridge, or answers a question while you cook: what to use instead of an ingredient, how long in the oven, how to go from four servings to six. It suggests, you approve. Nothing lands in your week without your say. Meals that look like you Say once what you like: how many people at the table, your budget, the mood of the moment, what you'd rather avoid, your allergies, even the appliances in your kitchen. Every suggestion takes it into account. Allergies are a strict rule, never a hint. The no-waste fridge Leftover rice, half a pepper, two eggs? Tell the app what's in your fridge and get a real recipe built around it, without a single extra trip to the store. Less food waste, and savings every week. A shopping list that fills itself in Your week becomes a shopping list: ingredients grouped by aisle, duplicates merged, quantities added up. You can also keep it by hand, line by line. Note the prices you usually pay and the app estimates the basket before you even leave home. A real recipe book - Write your own recipes in minutes, in your own words - Import one from a link (TikTok, food blogs, cooking sites) - Ask anything about any recipe - Find everything sorted and ready to drop into your plan Calories and nutrition, with nothing to log A clear dashboard for the calories and the balance of your week, recipe by recipe. Enough to keep an eye on what you eat, or to follow a diet, without keeping a notebook. Export and share Your weekly menu and your shopping list as a PDF, free, in one tap: print it for the fridge door, send it to whoever is going to the store. A QR code at the bottom helps the people you share it with find the app. Why this app - A complete meal planner that works entirely by hand - Help available when you want it, never forced on you - Menu, recipes, shopping and nutrition: it all connects - One week for the whole group - Less waste, less mental load, more pleasure in cooking The app is free and works without creating an account: planner, recipes, shopping list and PDFs cost nothing. Only sharing needs an Apple or Google account. Premium unlocks the AI, the nutrition dashboard and creating a group; your first days of meals planned by the AI are on us when you sign up. Premium: monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, cancellable at any time from your App Store account. Prices are shown in the app before any purchase.

DiMeals plans your week of meals, turns it into a shopping list, and tells you what each meal cost, using your own prices. HOW IT WORKS You plan the week. You get the shopping list. You shop. With Premium you scan the receipt and the prices land where they belong and stay there for next time. Without it you type them in yourself. WHAT YOU GET โ€ข 64 ready-written recipes, with steps, quantities and timings, in English, Romanian and German. โ€ข A library of 257 products with their nutrition values. โ€ข Weekly planning: breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, with portions for each meal. โ€ข A shopping list built from the plan, which takes into account what you already have at home. โ€ข Prices kept as a log: a new price is added, it does not erase the old one. โ€ข Your own recipes, typed by hand or brought in from text, with notes that stay on the recipe. โ€ข A daily calorie goal, worked out from your own figures. โ€ข A backup in a single file that you carry to your next phone. FREE AND PREMIUM Everything you enter yourself stays free: your recipes, your plan, your list, your prices and your daily goal. Premium is for what DiMeals does for you: scanning of receipts, labels and recipes; filling the week by price, by goal and by what you already have; the cost of every meal and every portion, worked out from your prices; calories per recipe and for your own portion. Nutrition figures are estimates calculated from ingredients. DiMeals is not a medical device and does not give medical advice. YOUR DATA Your recipes, plan, list, prices and photos are stored on your own phone. Scanning needs an account, because the reading happens on a server. The account holds your email address, how many scans you have made, and the date your subscription ends. The photo or text you send to be read is not kept by us. The reading is done by a provider in the European Union, and what you send is not used to train models; the details are in the privacy policy. You can delete your account from inside the app, and the deletion is real. The rest of the app works without an account. THE SUBSCRIPTION A monthly or yearly subscription that renews on its own until you cancel it in your App Store account settings. The price and currency are shown by the App Store before you confirm. For eligible accounts the monthly plan starts with 14 free days, once only. Eligibility is decided by the App Store, not by the app. If the subscription ends, everything you entered stays: your recipes, your plan, your list, your prices and your backup.
