Foodie is built around saving recipes from social video, planning the week and an aisle-sorted shared grocery list. Saucepan saves recipes from Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and websites, shows which ones you can make tonight, and cooks them hands-free. Pick Saucepan if you want a pantry you fill by scanning your receipt, widgets and Live Activities while you cook, and an assistant that can search 5,700+ recipes before you sign in.
It reads the receipt on your phone and lists the food it found.
Ingredients, steps, a photo and credit to the creator.
Large type, timers that ring, and voice to move on.
