SnapCookBook wants the dog-eared recipes off the counter
A planned iPhone app that turns cookbook pages and handwritten recipe cards into searchable recipes stored in a personal iCloud library.
- For
- Home cooks with recipes in books and cards
- Worth noticing
- The site says up to four pages can be combined into one recipe, and unclear words are flagged for review.
Field notes
The page lays out a library organized around source cookbooks and page numbers, with collections such as “Weeknight” or “Mum's” and search by ingredient. It describes on-device scanning on iPhones with Apple Intelligence, including offline use, while other device requirements are left to the FAQ. The app has not yet reached the App Store; the listed free and Pro features are product descriptions, not independently observed functionality.
