Free Recipe App | MyRecipe

MyRecipe is a free recipe app with no usage limits on sharing, search, OCR, or meal planning. Save up to 50 recipes free, share unlimited.

Start Free Browse Recipes

Most 'free' recipe apps are built around a paywall — you can save five recipes, then it's nag-screens forever. MyRecipe takes a different approach. The free tier is built for people who want a real, useful, ad-supported tool: 50 recipes, basic meal planning, full-feature shopping list, full search, and unlimited public/link sharing. Sharing is never paywalled because sharing is what makes the network grow.

If 50 recipes isn't enough, the Family plan is $4/month for unlimited recipes, OCR import, full meal planning, and household sharing for up to four members. We don't have free trials with credit cards, we don't have hidden fees, and we don't sell your data. The free tier is genuinely free, the paid tier is genuinely useful, and you can cancel any time without losing your saved recipes — they downgrade gracefully back to the free tier limits. That's the whole pricing story.

What MyRecipe gives you

  • Save and organize unlimited recipes (50 free, unlimited on Family)
