About Forked Recipes

Forked turns your self-hosted Mealie recipe library into a weekly meal plan and one grocery list, on your iPhone. Your recipes stay on your server. No Forked account, no ads, no tracking. NEW: YOUR WHOLE LIBRARY Browse every recipe as photo cards, search titles, ingredients, steps, and notes, and filter by favorites, rating, cook time, tags, categories, or what's safe for your Chef Profile. Add any recipe to your plan or Shopping list straight from the Library. Recipes are saved for offline reading, with servings that scale the amounts. EDIT, FAVORITE, AND RATE Edit recipes, add new ones, replace photos, favorite, and rate, right from your iPhone. Changes save to your Mealie server, wait safely while you're offline, and never overwrite someone else's edit without asking. Marking a planned meal cooked also updates Mealie's Last Made date. Requires Mealie 3.21 or later. HOUSEHOLDS Cook from one plan with the people you live with. A Forked Pro owner can invite up to four people for free to share a meal plan and shopping list, and everyone's edits sync through iCloud. Only your chosen name and emoji are shared. Your server credentials, dietary preferences, and Plan History stay private. DECIDE WHAT TO COOK Swipe through Quick Picks from your own recipes to save, pass, or favorite. Suggestions are ranked by your Chef Profile and your favorites and ratings. PLAN YOUR WEEK Generate a multi-day plan from your library, choose a vibe, and swap any meal you don't want. ONE GROCERY LIST Add a plan, saved picks, or your own items to one Shopping list. Matching quantities combine, items are grouped by store section (move one and Forked remembers), and you can paste several items at once or share the list. COOK STEP BY STEP Follow instructions one step at a time with built-in timers, and keep the screen on while you cook. CHEF PROFILES FOR EVERY DIET Record allergies, diets such as vegan, halal, and gluten-free, and the ingredients you love or avoid. Allergies and diets that leave something out remove recipes whose ingredients, title, or a "Contains" tag name it; other diets, like keto, put tagged recipes first. Filtering cannot guarantee allergen safety: always check ingredients and labels. Shared and reused meals may not match your current profile, and Household members' dietary profiles are not combined. WORKS WHEN YOUR SERVER DOESN'T After your first sync, saved recipes, plans, Quick Picks, and Shopping stay ready while your server is slow or unreachable, and Forked refreshes when it's back. FORKED PRO A $9.99 one-time purchase, shareable with Family Sharing. Pro adds Households, Plan History, Use This Plan Again, Reuse Ingredients, and Avoid Recent Meals. Everything else in Forked stays free. Optional tips unlock nothing. Household members each need Forked, iCloud with iCloud Drive, and their own access to the same Mealie library. Turning on or accepting sync shares the Plan or Shopping list, and accepting replaces that list on your device. BUILT FOR EVERYONE VoiceOver, Voice Control, Larger Text, Reduce Motion, status that doesn't rely on color, and light and dark appearance across setup, Library, recipes, Quick Picks, plans, Shopping, and cooking. Requires a self-hosted Mealie server; editing and other changes need Mealie 3.21 or later. Complete ingredients, tags, and categories give better suggestions and shopping lists. Forked is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Mealie project.

What’s new

Version 2026.10.1 · Updated October 16, 2026

Fixes from your launch feedback, thank you. • Ingredients read as written. Lines that Mealie kept as plain text, like "2 tablespoons unsalted butter", no longer show just "2 2", and they scale, copy, and add to Shopping correctly. Allergy and diet filters now see those foods too. • Behind Cloudflare Access or Pangolin? Add your proxy's request headers under Connection Options. They stay in this iPhone's Keychain and go only to your server. • Editing a recipe no longer adds a duplicate tag like "instant-pot" beside "Instant Pot". • The editor's tag and category lists fill in when opened from a recipe. • Edit Connection checks a plain-HTTP home server without the long wait.
