Support — The Recipe Organizer

Importing Recipes

Copy and paste the full URL of any recipe page — the app will extract the ingredients, steps, and nutritional info automatically.
If a recipe fails to import, try copying the link directly from your browser's address bar rather than from a share sheet.
Some websites block automated access. If a site consistently fails, please contact us and we'll look into adding support for it.
Recipes behind a paywall can't be read by the app. You'll see a message explaining this — try finding the recipe on another site.

Share the post to The Recipe Organizer, or paste its link into the import screen.
For Instagram and Facebook, the app will ask you to paste the post's caption as well — that's where the ingredients and steps live, and those platforms don't let us read it for you.
TikTok links pull the caption in automatically, along with the creator's name and photo.
If the caption doesn't actually contain the recipe, there's nothing for the app to extract. Some creators put the full recipe in a comment or link out to their own site.

On iOS, tap the Share button in your browser or any app, then select The Recipe Organizer from the share sheet.
On Android, tap Share and choose The Recipe Organizer from the list of apps.
The recipe will be imported automatically when the app opens.

Tap Add to write a recipe from scratch — title, ingredients, steps, servings, and cook time.
You can add your own photo, and enter nutrition values by hand if you want them.
If you navigate away mid-edit, the app will warn you before discarding unsaved changes.

Open a recipe and tap Cook to step through the instructions one at a time.
Tick off ingredients as you add them — the checklist keeps your place while you work.

The Plan tab shows the week ahead. Add a recipe to a day from the plan, or from the recipe page itself.
Mark a recipe as made once you've cooked it.
If you share a collection, everyone in it sees and edits the same weekly plan.

Share your collection with the people you cook with, and your recipes, tags, and meal plan stay in sync for all of you.
Send a single recipe to one person without sharing your whole collection. They can save their own copy. You control whether they can pass it on, and you can revoke access at any time.
Publish a recipe to the community collection so anyone can find and save it. You can unpublish it later.
Discover lets you browse community recipes by category or cuisine and save any of them into your own collection.
Recipes you saved from the community are marked as such, and can't be republished back to the community.

Every imported recipe keeps a link back to where it came from, shown at the top of the recipe.
That card shows the creator's name and photo or the site's logo, their handle and platform for social posts, and a View original link to the source page.
Attribution travels with the recipe when it's shared or published, so credit isn't lost along the way.
Are you a creator who'd like a recipe removed from the community collection? Email us and we'll take care of it.

You can sign in with a passkey (Face ID, Touch ID, or your device PIN) or with a magic link sent to your email — no password required.
Want to look around first? Choose Continue as guest. Create an account later to keep your recipes and use them on other devices.
