Dinner is a two-person job. HelloMealio gives your household one shared plan, one live grocery list, and one answer to "who's cooking tonight" — on both your phones.
The dinner app for both of you.
Dinner is a two-person job, but every dinner app is built for one. HelloMealio gives your household one shared plan you both get a say in, one live grocery list two phones can split, and one answer to "who's cooking tonight."
PLAN THE WEEK TOGETHER
* A week of dinners from recipes you already have, planned in seconds.
* Your partner gets a real vote: thumbs-up any night, or ask for a swap — one tap finds a better fit from your library.
* The plan shows its work: see the ingredients your dinners share, so the week fits in one reasonable grocery run.
SPLIT THE STORE
* One live list, grouped by aisle. Check an item on your phone and it disappears on theirs, instantly.
* Claim an aisle each and divide the trip, with a running count of what's left for each of you.
* Your list stays with you even when the store's signal doesn't.
TONIGHT, HANDLED
* Tonight Mode answers 5pm: what's for dinner, and whose night it is.
* Assign any night to either of you. The home-screen widget shows "You cook" — or their name — and the dinner reminder goes to the cook's phone.
* Mark it cooked, hand it off, or swap it. No plan tonight? Three quick picks from your own library.
* Defrost reminders the night before, when tomorrow's dinner needs one.
YOUR KITCHEN, GROWING
* Bring recipes in from anywhere: paste a link from the web, TikTok, or Instagram, or snap a photo of a cookbook page.
* Scale any recipe to tonight's headcount and the ingredient amounts follow.
* Keep the screen awake while you cook — wet hands never have to wake your phone.
* Share any recipe with a private link your friends can view and save.
* A household streak and honest stats: what you actually cooked, together, and who cooked it.
FREE FOR BOTH OF YOU
The two-player kitchen is free: the shared plan, the live list, reactions and swaps, who-cooks-tonight, streaks, and invites. HelloMealio Pro unlocks an unlimited recipe library and unlimited imports, plus Voice Chef — a hands-free cooking companion that talks you through the exact recipe you're making.
Pro is $19.99 a year or $3.99 a month, and one price covers everyone in your household. Less than one takeout order.
Sign in with Apple or Google, plan your first week, then add your person. Dinner's better on two phones.
