Everything MealTime does

MealTime is an iOS app that captures recipes from anywhere you find them and turns them into a kitchen you can actually use. Save a recipe with one tap, organize it into a cookbook, drop it onto a weekly meal plan, and shop from a grocery list that builds itself. Here is what each part does.

AI recipe importer

Tap Share on a video, post, link, screenshot, or block of text and the AI recipe importer extracts a clean recipe — title, ingredients, steps, times, and servings — in seconds. It works with Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, Threads, and any recipe website.

Cookbooks

Every recipe you save lands in a searchable cookbook, so the meals you love stop disappearing into your camera roll, bookmarks, and screenshots.

Meal planner

Turn saved recipes into a weekly meal plan, or ask MealTime for AI meal ideas based on what is already in your fridge.

Grocery lists

MealTime builds an organized grocery list from your meal plan, combines duplicate ingredients, and lets you check items off at the store.

Shared cookbooks and lists

Share a cookbook and a grocery list with your partner or family so everyone sees the same plan and the same shopping list in real time.

Cooking mode

Open any saved recipe in a clean, step-by-step cooking view that keeps the screen awake while you cook.
