Easy Recipe App3.16 - App Store

Turn anything into a recipe.

Easy Recipe App uses on-device AI to extract ingredients and instructions from your favorite culinary content. Paste a link from TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, or a food blog - or simply snap a photo of a handwritten card or cookbook page.

Everything processes locally on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Your data remains entirely private. iCloud sync keeps your recipes up-to-date, and safe, across all your Apple devices.
Key Features:

. Media import: extract formatted recipes from video links, URLs, or photos.
. Local AI processing: Easy Recipe App uses on-device Apple Intelligence for extraction. Data stays local unless you enable iCloud sync.
. iCloud Sync: Secure backup and seamless syncing across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
. Create baking and cooking timers directly in the app, glanceable from the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island with Live Activities.
