About Kept: Recipe Organizer
Kept is the recipe organizer for people who collect recipes everywhere: websites, cookbooks, family cards, screenshots, and ideas of their own. Bring them all into one beautiful, private library that syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your own iCloud. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE • Import from any recipe website: use the share sheet to save directly from your browser, or paste a link to extract the title, ingredients, steps, and photo. • Scan paper recipes: point the camera at a cookbook page or a handwritten card and Kept turns it into a structured recipe. • Paste from notes or messages: plain text becomes a clean, organized recipe. COOK WITH CONFIDENCE • A clean cook-along view with a tappable ingredient checklist. Strike through items as you add them. • Numbered steps with ingredients, cookware, and timers highlighted inline. • Tap any timer to start it, then follow it from the Dynamic Island or Lock Screen. • Attach a photo of your finished dish to remember how it should look. ORGANIZED, AUTOMATICALLY • Recipes are classified into categories with matching icons as you add them. • Search, filter by category or tag, and sort your whole collection instantly. • Group your library by category, or browse most recent and most cooked. YOURS, FOREVER • Recipes are stored as portable, human-readable Cooklang files in your own iCloud Drive. Open them in the Files app anytime. • Save up to 10 recipes free. A one-time purchase unlocks unlimited. • No account, no subscription, no lock-in. Move, copy, or back up your recipes like any other file. • Private by design: no analytics, no tracking, no servers. Your recipes never leave your control and stay only in your own iCloud. Kept supports iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Recipe import works best on devices with Apple Intelligence enabled.

Please install this update on every iPhone, iPad and Mac that shares your recipe library. Kept 1.3 will require iOS 27, iPadOS 27 or macOS 27. Devices that stay on iOS 26, iPadOS 26 or macOS 26 can keep using this version alongside Kept 1.3.
