How it works
One loop, from recipe to dinner.
Every step hands off to the next. What you save fills your plan, your plan writes your list, and your list gets you to the stove.
-
Step 1
Save
Start with 500+ tested recipes, then bring in your own. Share a recipe page from Safari, scan a cookbook page with on-device text recognition, or type a family classic.
- Website import from the Share sheet
- Cookbook photo scanning, reviewed before it saves
- Collections, favourites, cuisines and dietary tags
-
Step 2
Plan
Fill the week in one tap. Auto-fill picks dinners that use what is already in your pantry and skips anything you cooked in the last two weeks.
- Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks
- Pantry-aware suggestions you can shuffle
- Export the week to your calendar
-
Step 3
Shop
Your plan becomes one list, grouped by aisle, with duplicate ingredients combined. Each item remembers which recipe needs it.
- Generated straight from your meal plan
- Grouped by aisle, quantities merged
- Check off as you go
-
Step 4
Cook
Big, clear steps that keep up with you at the stove. Timers run on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, and voice guidance reads each step aloud.
- Step-by-step cooking mode with servings scaling
- Live Activity timers and voice guidance
- Log the cook, and it is back in your rotation
The film
Twenty-two seconds, start to dinner.

What can I cook now?
Tell your pantry what you have. Smart Recipes shows each recipe's match and warns before things expire.
Apple Intelligence, on device
Generate a recipe from the ingredients you have, spin a variation, or find a substitution. Nothing leaves your device.
Timers on your Lock Screen
Cooking timers run as Live Activities in the Dynamic Island, so the countdown stays in view while the phone sleeps.
Hands-free voice guidance
Each step is read aloud in the voice you choose, so floury hands never touch the screen.
Widgets, Siri and Shortcuts
Keep recent and favourite recipes on your Home Screen, or ask Siri for today's meals or a random recipe.
iCloud sync, no account
Your library, plans and lists follow you between iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch through your own iCloud.
iPad and Apple Watch
Made for the counter, and the wrist.
On iPad, the sidebar keeps every section a tap away and recipes stay big enough to read from across the kitchen. On Apple Watch, ingredients and steps sit on your wrist.
Private by design
Your recipes are nobody's data set.
No DuttLabs server, no ads, no third-party analytics and no tracking. Your library lives on your device and in your personal iCloud.
- No accountSign in with nothing. Your Apple ID is enough.
- No trackingNo ad SDKs and no analytics SDKs.
- No cloud AIAI runs on device with Apple Intelligence.

Questions
Good to know.
Do I need an account?
No. Smart Recipes uses your Apple ID and your own iCloud account. There is no separate sign-up.
Which devices does it run on?
iPhone and iPad with iOS 18 or iPadOS 18 or later, and Apple Watch with watchOS 10 or later. Your library syncs between them through iCloud.
Do the AI features send my recipes anywhere?
No. Recipe generation, variations and substitutions use Apple Intelligence on supported devices, and cookbook scanning uses on-device text recognition. Everything else works without AI.
Can I import recipes I already have?
Yes. Share a recipe page to Smart Recipes from Safari, or scan a photo of a cookbook page. You review each import before it is saved.
How do I cancel or get a refund?
Subscriptions are managed by Apple. Open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Refunds are requested through reportaproblem.apple.com.
