About Zest Recipe Planner
Most recipe apps assume you want thousands of recipes. Zest assumes the opposite: you already know how to cook the twenty or so meals you actually make, and what you need is a faster way to plan and repeat them rather than a bigger collection to scroll through. START FROM WHAT YOU ACTUALLY BUY Keep a running list of the ingredients you really use, and build recipes from that shortlist instead of typing everything out from scratch every time. It's ingredient-first, not recipe-first, reflecting the way most people actually cook. DECIDE ONCE, NOT AT 5PM Give a recipe a date, and Today tells you what you're making — no calendar app, no remembering, no standing in front of the fridge trying to decide. Plan a single day or the whole week in a few minutes. COOK HANDS-FREE Tap Cook Now and get your recipe's steps one at a time, full screen, with the display kept awake so you're not swiping through a wall of text with wet or messy hands. ORGANIZED HOWEVER YOU COOK Search and filter recipes by meal type, sort ingredients into your own categories, and color-code however makes sense to you. Simple to start with (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Produce, Dairy, Spices) and just as simple to make your own. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY Works offline, syncs quietly across your devices. Built to fit an iPhone SE without feeling cramped, and just as sharp stretched across a full iPad and looks great in both light and dark mode. A SMALL WAY TO DO GOOD 10% of every Zest subscription goes to A21, an organization working to end human trafficking. Try it free for 3 days, then continue with a subscription that gives back. Zest is available for a Basic monthly ($.99) or yearly ($12.99) subscription that supports continued improvements and new features. Both offer a free trial to give you time to get to know Zest and decide if it works for you.

Cook what you already love, without the decision fatigue.
