Second Drawer Down

Every family has that drawer — the one full of handwritten cards, torn-out magazine clippings, and printouts of the recipes that actually matter. Second Drawer Down is that drawer, organized.

IMPORT YOUR EXISTING RECIPES
Already have recipes typed up somewhere? Import a plain text file instantly — no AI needed, no limit, completely free. Have a handwritten card, a cookbook page, or your own magazine/website subscription? Snap a photo and let AI read it for you — you get 5 free AI-assisted imports to start.

ADD RECIPES BY HAND
Type in a new recipe just as easily as writing in a notes app — title, ingredients, and steps, always free with no limit.

ORGANIZE YOUR WAY
- Categories: Appetizers, Mains, Desserts, and more
- Holidays: pull up your whole Thanksgiving or Christmas lineup in one tap
- Cuisine: Italian, Mexican, Thai, and dozens more
- Collections: build your own, named anything you like — "Sunday Dinners," "Recipes from Mom," whatever makes sense to you

FIND WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
Search by name, ingredient, or keyword. Browse by photo when you remember what a dish looked like but not its name. Or combine filters — find that dessert from Italy, or the entrée you made for the 4th of July — without needing to remember the exact recipe name.

COOK WITH CONFIDENCE
Scale any recipe up or down by servings, or by pan size for baking. Switch between US and metric units anytime. Keep your screen awake while you cook with Cook Mode, so flour-covered hands don't mean constantly waking your phone back up.

MAKE IT PERSONAL
Add your own notes for next time. Track who loved a dish (and who didn't) so you always know what to make when they visit. Add a photo of how your version actually turned out.

YOUR RECIPES, YOUR BOOK
Turn your whole collection into a real, downloadable book with a custom cover — upload your own photo or choose from several built-in designs. Send it straight to your Kindle, or share it as a file to any e-reader app you already use.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Recipes and photos live on your own device by default — nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to. Want a cloud backup? Connect your own Google Drive anytime, entirely optional. Want a copy you can open anywhere, app or no app? Export your whole collection as a PDF.

No ads. No tracking. No selling your data. Just your family's recipes, kept the way you actually want them.
