Recipe Scanner App

The best recipe scanner is the one that's always in your pocket — your phone camera, paired with MyRecipe's OCR engine. Point the camera at any recipe — handwritten, printed, photocopied, or torn from a magazine — and the scanner extracts a clean, editable recipe in under 30 seconds.

What makes it work

Works on handwriting, print, and photo

Cursive or block letters, card stock or newsprint, faded ink or fresh — the scanner handles them all.

Structured output every time

The scanner separates ingredients from instructions automatically, so every scanned recipe lands in the same clean format.

Keep the original photo

The source image stays attached to the recipe card. The sentimental original and the searchable digital version live side by side.

Frequently asked

Do I need the app to scan recipes?

Yes — the scanner is inside the MyRecipe app. It's free to download and free to scan your first 50 recipes.

Can it scan multiple recipes from one page?

Best results come from one recipe per scan. For multi-recipe pages, crop the area you want or scan individually.
