Description

Mela is a simple, elegant and modern recipe manager that syncs with iCloud. SYNC Sync your recipes with iCloud, either privately (default) or by sharing a recipe library with other iCloud users. IN-APP BROWSER WITH LIVE PREVIEW Quickly save a recipe while browsing: If Mela detects a recipe on the currently viewed page, it will be displayed in Mela's native recipe viewer*, on the same screen on the iPad and a swipe-left away on the iPhone. Want to add or view a recipe from outside of Mela? No problem, just use Mela's sharing extension. FEEDS Subscribe to your favorite recipe blogs to view all the recipes in Mela's native recipe viewer*. COOK MODE The cook mode makes it easy to follow all steps while cooking, displayed using a larger font to make sure everything stays readable even when you're not right in front of your device. You can add multiple recipes to the cook mode, easily letting you switch between them. TIMERS No need to switch to another app for setting up a timer. When in cooking mode, Mela let's you easily create and manage timers. Timers come with support for Live Activities (iOS 16.1+). SCANNER Scan a recipe from a book: With the help of text recognition, you can just add it to your personal collection and view it in Mela's native recipe viewer, as any other recipe. GROCERIES Mela uses the Reminders.app to manage your grocery list. This has the advantage that you’re always able to access your grocery list on all your devices even if Mela is not installed on a specific device. CALENDAR Do your meal planning by using Mela's built-in calendar. It's managed by Calendar.app which also has the advantage that you're always able to access it on all your devices. There's also a widget, showing you the next planned meal from your calendar. ORGANIZING Recipes can be organized in categories, marked as “Favorite” or as “Want to Cook”. PRINTING Of course, Mela supports printing in case there’s a recipe you want to have on paper or save as PDF. Please note: If iCloud Sync is enabled (default), Mela will sync these items with iCloud: - Recipes - Browser bookmarks - Subscription list (feeds) Not synced: - Feed recipe entries - Browser history Groceries are always stored in Reminders.app Mela is free to download but will require a one-time purchase to unlock all features. * Extracting recipes only works for websites that support this, most of them do.

    To be honest, I was a bit skeptical about getting this app and using it but I was completely wrong! This app is AMAZING! I would always come across recipes online and would bookmark them but no longer do I need that! This app is able to capture any recipe for any website. The best thing is, the recipe itself is saved and removed all the unnecessary verbiage that we usually skip over. If I could give this 6 stars out of 5 I would!
  • Amazing

    I used to use Pinterest and a 3 ring binder to store all my recipes, but Pinterest was hard as pulling them up to cook had so many ads, and my physical 3 ring binder was hard to locate which recipe I wanted. Mela makes it so easy by recognizing and inputting recipes either from a website, or scanning a paper print out, or even just typing it in it super easy and fast to do. Then I can assign meals to days on the calendar?! Super helpful! I also love that it will generate a shopping list, but also allow me to uncheck items that are already in my pantry first. I do kinda wish there was an option to put my grocery list into Alexa instead of Apple’s reminders app, but it’s a minor thing that I can work with easily. Even juggling the two grocery lists isn’t hard.

    Probably the best recipe app I have ever seen, what an absolute pleasure it is to use this app. It is so well organized and integrated with native ios apps.

    This app is simply amazing. I can’t thank the creator of this app enough. Best $5 investment hands down
  • Good but missing important features

    This is a pretty good recipe app, but it has a ways to go. Some features I’d like to see: - Better iCloud integration. Currently, there is a bug where grocery lists made on the app don’t automatically sync with the phone app. In order to do this I have to turn iCloud syncing off and then turn it on again - Saved shopping lists. I have a lot of items I buy regularly but that aren’t part of any particular recipe. I’d like a way to save certain items as shopping list favorites so I can add them to new lists easily - Organized shopping lists. Currently the grocery lists are just a jumble of items. It’d be nice to have them sorted by aisle or department (this is a feature that Samsung Food/Whisk does well)
  • Was looking for an alternative Recipe Viewer, this is not it.

    This app does not have a website for easier recipe importing. The app costs $5 one time which is great, but you can only use the free version for 10 recipes. The Grocery export to Grocery reminders in iOS doesn’t work. I think there should be a tutorial on finding rss feeds for the “feeds” section. I paid $5 dollars to start importing my recipes, and I’m not feeling like I’m out $5.
