A family cookbook used to mean a Tupperware bin full of index cards, a folder of yellowed magazine clippings, and a single laminated copy of grandma's pierogi recipe everyone fights over at Christmas. MyRecipe is a digital family cookbook app that finally puts all of that into one searchable, shareable place. Snap a photo of any handwritten recipe card, let the OCR scanner pull out the ingredients and steps, attach the original photo for sentimental value, and your family classic is preserved forever.
Once it's in MyRecipe, your family cookbook follows you everywhere. The Family plan lets up to four relatives — siblings, parents, in-laws, your spouse — share one household library. Add a recipe on your phone, and your sister sees it on hers. Tag heirloom recipes with categories like 'Holidays,' 'Sunday dinner,' or 'Mom's,' and they're a tap away. When you want to gift the whole collection, you can share a public chef profile or export to a printable PDF cookbook for the next family reunion. Generations of recipes, finally in one place.
