Copy Me That combines a recipe manager, shopping list, and meal planner into one seamless flow. Easily save recipes from any website, as well as from most apps, including social media apps. You're not just saving the link; you'll have your own copy of the complete recipe. The app also lets you add your own recipes, of course. Copy Me That syncs with all your devices so you'll have online access anywhere. Edit any part of a recipe to remember your recipe tweaks. Add your own masterpiece photos, or fun flop photos, as the case may be! Organize your recipes with collections or just use search to find what you're looking for. Plan your meals ahead of time with the meal planner and then head off to the grocery store with your shopping list. Sort your shopping list by recipe or category (aisle) to easily find your items in the store. Looking for inspiration? Then see what others are sharing in the Copy Me That Community. You decide how much (or little) you want to share. We've made sure that your iPad or iPhone won't go to sleep while you're following a recipe. (We know how annoying it is when that happens!) Your recipes belong to you and you can export them at any time. You immediately get access to all our features, including features that were previously premium-only. The free version has a limit of 40 recipes. After that it's only $0.99 per month for unlimited recipes. You can also purchase an annual or lifetime membership. One paid membership is good on all your devices. Note that the recipe detection, when adding recipes from other websites, is currently optimized for English. Please also refer to the standard Apple Terms of use https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Loadlight is a shared todo and grocery app for couples, families, roommates, trips, and teams. Capture what needs doing, assign a clear owner, and keep the group moving without another round of follow-up messages. CAPTURE IT FAST Type a todo or say the messy version. Loadlight can split one recording into multiple tasks and recognize names and dates. SHARE THE LOAD Create or join a private group, assign tasks, add due dates and effort, break bigger jobs into subtasks, and send a gentle nudge when someone needs a reminder. SHOP TOGETHER Add several groceries by typing or voice, keep items organized by aisle, assign who will grab what, and see what is already in the cart. STAY IN SYNC Use Today and Calendar views to see what is next. Open tasks assigned to you can sync to a dedicated list in Apple Reminders, where dated reminders can also appear in Apple Calendar. KEEP IT FAIR See the group's recent workload and rebalance it before one person is carrying everything. Loadlight is built for real life: add the thing, assign it, and move on.
