Simmer

Every recipe you love, in one place — and it stays yours.

Paste a link from any food site and Simmer turns it into a clean, cookable card: ingredients, steps, photo, times, nutrition. It reads the open recipe markup that sites publish, but it doesn't stop there — when a blog has no markup at all, it finds the recipe inside the post; when a page is old, it reads the microdata and the printable version; when it's a TikTok, Instagram or YouTube link, it parses the caption.

It reads your cookbooks too. Photograph a page and Simmer recognises the text on your device — including two-column book layouts, where it keeps each quantity with its ingredient and preserves the groups ("the filling", "the royal icing"). Servings and times come along too.

In the kitchen
• Cook mode: one step at a time, screen stays awake
• Durations become one-tap timers you can run in parallel
• Change the serving count and every quantity recomputes
• Switch metric/imperial, translate a foreign recipe into your language

Before the kitchen
• Shopping list grouped by aisle, matching quantities merged, translated into your language
• Pantry: what you already have is left out of the list
• Nutrition per serving — published by the site, or estimated from the ingredients and clearly labelled

Around the kitchen
• Guests: note who you had over, when, and what you served them — with a note per person (allergies, tastes)
• Tags, collections, favourites, ratings, your own photos of the result
• Import from Paprika, Cooklang, JSON-LD, PDF, Word, a saved web page or a photo — one entry, the format is detected for you
• Export to Paprika, JSON-LD, Cooklang, Markdown, PDF or text, and share a recipe with anyone
• Optional iCloud sync, and a home-screen widget

Private by design. Extraction runs on your device. No account, no ads, no tracking, nothing sent to a Kinevia server. Your recipes work offline.
