What’s new
Version 1.0.6 · Updated August 17, 2026
- Imported recipes now use your Measurement System setting. Many recipe sites publish metric and US measurements, but show only one at a time. When a site does this, Plate imports the measurements that you prefer, in the ingredient list and in the steps. The setting is at Settings > Measurement System. It starts on US in the United States, and on metric in all other countries. - Plate now uses the system font as the default. The previous font is still available: select Analog at Settings > Font. If you already selected a font, Plate keeps your selection. - Plate now reads metric measures commonly used in Europe. Recipes written in decagrams (dag, dkg, deka), hectograms (hg), decilitres (dl), and centilitres (cl) now identify them as units. - Scaled metric amounts change to the correct unit. If you double "750ml", Plate shows "1.5l" and not "1500ml". If you scale "1kg" to a quarter, Plate shows "250g". - A step that gives a time as a decimal ("bake for 1.5 hours") now starts a timer with the correct duration. - If you import a photo that has no recipe text, Plate now tells you to photograph the page with the ingredients and the steps. - An import from a URL could finish with an empty screen, and no editor. Plate now shows the editor. - The recipe screens and the settings screens are faster. - The first recipe that you open after you start the app opens faster.
