About Obento: Meal Planner
Turn the recipes you already love into a ready-made week of dinners — with the grocery list handled too. Obento plans your week from recipes you’ve already saved, so you don’t have to decide what’s for dinner every day. Generate a complete plan in seconds, swap anything that doesn’t fit, and let Obento favor recipes that share ingredients so you can shop smarter and waste less. YOUR WEEK, PLANNED AUTOMATICALLY • Generate your weekly meal plan in one tap • Plan from all your recipes or a single collection • Choose which recipes are part of your rotation • Adjust how and what you want to plan • Favor recipes that reuse similar ingredients • Swap any meal when plans change • Plan this week — and next week ahead SAVE THE RECIPES YOU ALREADY LOVE • Import recipes straight from Safari using the share sheet • Paste a recipe link or plain text from notes and messages • Ingredients and instructions fill in automatically • Review and edit everything before saving • Organize favorites into collections and add your own photos YOUR GROCERY LIST, AUTOMATICALLY • Ingredients from your planned meals are combined into one checkable list • Similar ingredients are grouped together automatically • Original recipe wording stays available, so nothing gets lost • Pantry staples and spices stay out of the main list • Check items off as you shop BUILT AROUND YOUR RECIPES Obento works with the recipes you already cook, rather than giving you a completely new set of meals every week. Save recipes from the places you already find them, build your own collection, and let Obento turn those favorites into a week that actually fits you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required. Your recipes, meal plans and grocery lists are stored on your devices and sync through your private iCloud. Recipe parsing happens on-device, including with Apple Intelligence where supported, so your recipe content doesn’t need to be sent to Obento’s servers. Obento uses privacy-preserving, anonymous usage analytics to understand how the app is used and improve the experience. Recipe content, ingredients and grocery items are never included in analytics. Save your recipes once. Let Obento plan the week. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
