Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An iPhone recipe diary for recording dishes, cooking attempts, ratings, notes, photos, meal plans, and shopping lists.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-11 issue.

Field notes

Nombook stores a personal cookbook on the iPhone, with optional private iCloud Sync rather than a Nombook server. Recipes can be entered from handwriting, cookbook photos, pasted text, or links, then used in an awake-screen cooking mode with step timers. The diary layer records each cooking attempt with a star rating, note, and outcome photos. It also turns planned meals into shopping lists and can search for dishes based on ingredients available in the fridge.
