Everything a recipe box should do

Local-first privacy

Recipes are saved directly on your device, not in a cloud or third-party database.

Ad-free, distraction-free reading

A clean recipe display focused on making great food.

Easy sharing

Export and import recipes as .yipyipzip files, with the recipes they link to included.

Private recipes

Mark a recipe secret so cherished family dishes are never shared by accident.

Backup and restore

Move your whole collection (and settings) to a new device or protect it from data loss.

Smart search

One search box across name, ingredients, tags and credits, or advanced search to combine filters. Results are sorted by your most-viewed recipes.

Recipe linking

Connect related recipes and jump between them with one tap.

Recipe images

Attach a photo or screenshot of an existing recipe to the ingredients or instructions and view it alongside your recipe. Supports JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, plus HEIC/HEIF on iOS and macOS.

Shopping list

Add ingredients straight from a recipe, manage the list separately, optional auto-delete for checked items.

Meal planner

Plan your week with a checklist, add recipes from your collection, assign meals to dates and drag them onto days.

Customization

Dark mode, logo colors and thumbnail view settings.

Available for macOS and Windows

iOS and Android coming soon.
