About Mealpin
Mealpin keeps recipes, the weekly plan, and shopping in one place. No account, and no cloud servers of ours. What you can do • Add recipes, sort them into folders, and import from a URL (for example Chefkoch) • Cook step by step, with a timer • Send a single recipe with Share or AirDrop • Plan the week: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and more • Share the plan over iCloud. Others see this week plus the next three, read-only, and can copy recipes into their library • Build a shopping list and send it to Apple Reminders • Optional: NFC tags for weekdays on the fridge Local first Your data stays on the device. iCloud syncs recipes and plans through your Apple Account, and sharing uses that too. Mealpin Pro (one-time purchase) Planning and recipes stay free. Pro unlocks unlimited Reminders export, URL import, and writing NFC tags. One free export and one free import are included. No tracking, no ads.
What’s new
Version 1.5.2 · Updated October 18, 2026
Import, cook mode, and the Today widget are more reliable. • Recipes from HelloFresh and other sites import as plain text, without HTML tags. • Amounts like 1.000 g or 1,000 g count as 1000, not 1. • The Today widget stays filled after midnight, even if the app is closed. • “Cook today’s meal” opens a cook session that’s already running, instead of ignoring it. Sharing is still optional via iCloud: read-only, this week plus the next three. Stop anytime. No Mealpin account.
