    You always worry about 'free lifetime'.

        Some of us can't afford to buy a new iPad every few years and the ones we have are still fit for purpose. I have an older iPad mini that I use as a kitchen recipe device and it only needs limited functionality such as web-browsing/Youtube - both of which work fine on the older iOS.

        Great! So far:

        I didn’t like the un-closeable pop up asking me to try the blog saving feature. I’m not interested in those sites and already have used the feature.

        In recipe recreation, I’m swiping up and down to select the duration, but swiping up and down also closes the window. This was annoying
        https://streamable.com/1ajtdu

        I would love the ability to add recipes from
        scans. My grandmas cook book is typed on old paper, but definitely readable by OCR. For now I can use iOS built in text selection in the photos app and copy and paste. But i would love to take multiple photos and your app could format everything correctly.

        I love the increase/decrease serving size feature!

          I'm unfortunately unable to view the video (404 error). Is this in reference to selecting the 'prep time' and 'cook time' when uploading a recipe? You can also email me [email protected] if easier.

          I agree- so many handwritten recipes, so scanning them in would make life easy

            • dman1 on 06/09/2023 - 18:51

              @homecookingaddict: I definitely +1 this comment - the amount of recipes from my mother and grandmother which are all still in the original handwritten versions.

              Some are 70 years old, lots were from pre metric days so being able to put in imperial measurements or hand written or scanned and maybes OCR Recipes, and convert to metric - though a lot of my personal newer plastic measuring spoons and cups are metric, I have been given some older ones from my mother who is in her 80s and I’ve been trying to convince her for 20 years to scan them, but the OCR is poor, honestly would almost be quicker typing some of them.

              My grandmother’s recipes, she couldn’t smuggle them out of Austria when they made their escape in 1938, she spend months, possibly a few years writing up all the ones she could remember when they finally got to Australia and a lot are in pencil on used or second hand paper.

              Those are the family recipes passed down and though I want to preserve all of them, the ones my Grandmother did by hand from memory, are a link to my mother’s family heritage.

              Even though I’ve told my mother to go photocopy everything, right now, my mother still uses the originals when cooking something. I’m thinking, “you are leaving all the cooking mess on them and not even using gloves to touch the paper!” lol.

              I know my sister would love to save them and has already put her hand up to inherit them. In the mean time, trying to get my mother who is quite capable of using a computer and scanner, to scan them in and if required I might be able to some restoration before I turn them into PDFs

                @dman1: Thanks for upvoting - we will look into OCR! Wow these recipes are very old and it would be great to digitally store them and document them so they're preserved for future!

                Very brave of your mum to cook with the originals. Perhaps you can try upload them manually onto ReciMe if it's faster than OCR.

                Goodluck and please let me know if you have any questions or feedback, my email [email protected] is always open!

  • derdew on 05/09/2023 - 19:50

    not working for me- signed up for the free trial, and don't see the "Tap ‘Upgrade to ReciMe Plus’" step. any fix for this?

    • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 05/09/2023 - 20:09

    • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 05/09/2023 - 20:16

      I think you may have signed up for the 'free trial' when you signed up, so you won't see the 'Upgrade to ReciMe Plus' button. I'll clarify the instructions, but you may need to create a new account in order to access the free lifetime subscription.

    would be keen if there is an Android version. I sometimes use Samsung food (formerly Whisk) for saving recipes and aggregating groceries

      • RabboHood on 05/09/2023 - 20:20
        +1

        Thoughts on Samsung food / Whisk:

        Pros:
        - Generally good in extracting ingredients
        - Good groceries list that shows ingredients for multiple recipes
        - Grocery list allows sorting by AIsle (e.g. fruit together) or recipe
        - Some (although limited) integrationw ith Alexa

        Cons:
        - Shows all the blurb for recipes, including advertisement from the original website, rather than just the recipe

        • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 05/09/2023 - 23:45

          Thanks for sharing!

          ReciMe can:
          - Extract ingredients from websites quite accurately (unless there's multiple quantities or obscure ingredients)
          - Extract full recipe (prep time, cook time, serving, ingredient, method) without blurbs for recipes, ads etc
          - Groceries list that shows ingredients by recipe or by aisle

          We don't have integrations with Alexa.

          • Member 0230 on 07/09/2023 - 10:31

            @homecookingaddict: Since ReciMe works only with the latest iOS (16), maybe it also needs the latest macOS to run (13)?

    • Member 0230 on 07/09/2023 - 10:26

      Fwiw, I first tried on the same machine, a 2020 M1 MBP, and it worked. Screen dimensions are for an iPad.

      A quick test would be to create a new user account (<1 min?) log in to it, then try ReciMe from there.

      • If it works, the problem is likely with your main account.
      • If it doesn't, your (older?) macOS version may not be supported by ReciMe.

        Great to know, will note this as a feature people want!

      • MisterQ on 06/09/2023 - 07:27

        Yup, would like that - at the moment I am transitioning from Rezepthos (a web-based recipe manager) to Mealie (which is hosted in our home Proxmox/Docker automation environment).

        One of the things that we do, do, is share the shopping list as an IOS shared Reminder List. From phone, watch, or Homepods in the kitchen, we can say "Hey Siri, add rice to Grocery list"

        The bulk of the shop is Woolies (who have a relatively decent ordering app, but the transfer from the reminder to their app has to be manual. (We also shop at Coles, Aldi, Costco, and occasionally IGA mainly for specials, or obscure store-specific products). Going from a recipe list to a shared reminder list or even an app would be super cool. Of course, if you are getting into that level of interaction, then working out who has the best price for the ingredient would be the icing on the cake.

        Of course, one of the challenges is that every "app" does it's own thing" and doesn't talk to others.

        While on that topic, check out yuka.io - they rate store products on "how healthy it is for you" - integrating that if possible would be cool. or at least delivering a similar outcome.

        • bohn on 06/09/2023 - 07:56

    • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 05/09/2023 - 21:23

      Thank you for the feedback! We haven't looked into Apple Watch integration yet but we'll check out Pestle.

We do have 'step by step cooking mode' which allows you to cook along to any recipe more easily. Just tap on 'Start Cooking Now' button any recipe to check it out.

    Thank you man. Great app.

    Feedback: on the grocery page, when looking up for items, if I type “Car” I would like to have all the ingredients available starting with “Car”. Then “Carrot” will show up and I can just select it.
    Faster to select all ingredients. English isn’t my first language it’s also easier to find ingredients.

    • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 05/09/2023 - 23:57

      Thanks so much! Your English is great! Feedback noted and something we can look to explore within the grocery page.

      We have this exact feature on the 'explore' page where you can search for recipes by ingredients. Under the 'Search by Ingredients' section, when you tap 'see all' and start typing to search for what's in your pantry, ingredient options will appear as you type. Is this what you're looking to see?

      • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 06/09/2023 - 10:51

        You can definitely move them! You probably just need to do it manually as we don't have an integration to import directly from Paprika

    • Associatedhomecookingaddict @ ReciMe on 06/09/2023 - 10:50
      +1

      Paprika has all the features we have + pantry management as well. They also have an in-app browser to import recipes but we don’t. They don't have the community/social aspect and our interface is more modern. Their cost for lifetime subscription is cheaper though (~$8 i think).

      Pestle has import recipe, shopping list which we have. They have meal plans which we don't but they also don't allow users to upload recipes to community or find recipes. Their free tier allows you to import 15 recipes, then you pay $31AUD per year.

      You can definitely import Paprika recipes to ReciMe, there isn't an integration to easily import, but you can paste blocks of ingredients and method. I'd love to know if you give this a go!

    - Can you make the grocery list smarter? E.g two individual limes from two recipes should add to 2x limes rather than having 1x limes written twice
    - Same with recipes using different units, it would be great if the app will calculate what 1 cup and 20ml of soy sauce adds up to
    - Can multiple users see a single list and edit it? E.g having a family help with the shopping and being able to check off the ingredient live would be fantastic!

    Anyways great job!

      Awesome feedback, we don't do any of those yet but definitely plan to make groceries & ingredients bundling smarter and allow for recipe/cookbook/grocery collaboration. Is there anything else you'd like to see? Always looking for more feedback so feel free to share them with me anytime - [email protected] :) Thanks!

    Have you already started wearing black turtle necks and talking in a deeper-than-normal voice? I heard ted-x broken hill has a few empty spots and were keen to get some speakers.

    Thanks. Does the lifetime sub save to my account? ie. if I install this on my iPad and login to the account I created on iPhone, will it recognise the unlocked sub or do I have to do the trick on every device I install it on?
