Simmerly is a personal recipe box that keeps every recipe you love in one tidy, searchable place — and gets it to the stove without the clutter of a browser full of tabs. Type a recipe in, or scan a recipe card and let your phone read it for you, then cook from a clean, full-screen view. HOW IT WORKS Add a recipe with its ingredients, steps, and category, or point your camera at a handwritten card or printed page and Simmerly reads the text into an editable recipe. When it's time to cook, open Cook Mode for large, glanceable steps you can follow from across the kitchen, and scale ingredient quantities to the number of servings you actually need. FEATURES • Store recipes with ingredients, steps, and categories • Scan recipe cards and pages — the text is read on-device • Cook Mode: distraction-free, full-screen steps for the stove • Scale ingredients automatically to any serving count • Search and browse your whole collection by category PRO A single one-time unlock adds: • Unlimited recipes — no cap on your box • Duplicate any recipe to tweak a variation without losing the original • Export and share any recipe as clean, formatted text Simmerly Pro requires a one-time in-app purchase. TERMS OF USE (EULA) https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ PRIVACY Simmerly works completely offline. There are no accounts and no cloud — every recipe and photo stays on your device, and recipe scanning happens entirely on your phone.

Founder quote

Simmerlyis built around one principle: your data stays on your device. We don't want it, we don't store it, and we don't need it to make the app work. Everything that can run locally, does.”
— Peter Zhang, solo developer, Obelisk Club
