iPhone
Ask Anna to make any recipe dairy-free, for two, or faster. Every version is kept next to the original. New in AnnaChef 1.1.
Open the fridge, take a photo, and AnnaChef reads the shelf — the vegetables, the leftovers, the half-used jar — then turns what you actually have into dinners you can start cooking right now. No shopping trip, no scrolling past recipes that need three things you don't own.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan — One photo of your fridge or pantry. AnnaChef spots the ingredients, even the half-used ones.
2. Pick — Recipes that need no shopping come first. Every one shows exactly which of your ingredients it uses.
3. Cook — Big type, one step at a time, with timers built into the steps that need them. Hands on the pan, not the phone.
ASK ANNA TO MAKE IT YOURS
Dairy-free? Cooking for two? Twenty minutes, not forty? Tell Anna what to change and she hands back a new version of the recipe. Every version is kept next to the original, so you can always go back. Ask her a question mid-recipe and she answers from that recipe, not a generic one.
REAL RECIPES FIRST
Chef-curated and catalogue recipes rank at the top. AI is used to read your fridge and match it to real dishes; generated ideas fill in only when the catalogue runs out.
WHAT ELSE IS INSIDE
• Explore — Anna's picks, trending dishes, and curated collections. Browsing is unlimited, no scan required.
• Filters for the way you actually decide — Under 30 minutes, Something easy, High-protein, Vegetarian.
• Your library — Save what you cook, add your own recipes, and share any recipe with a link.
• Pantry staples — Oil, salt, flour and your usual spices are assumed on hand, so recipes never get blocked by basics.
• Preferences that stick — Dietary choices, household size, and skill level shape every suggestion.
• Guest mode — Try the whole flow before you make an account.
FREE, PRIVATE, NO ADS
AnnaChef is free. Scanning and recipe generation have a daily fair-use limit that resets every day; browsing Explore is always unlimited. No ads, no tracking across other apps. Photos are used only to find your ingredients. Delete your account and everything in it from inside the app, any time.
A NOTE ON SAFETY
Ingredient detection and generated suggestions can be imperfect. Always check ingredients against your own allergies and dietary needs, and cook food to safe temperatures.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Cooking timers now live on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so you can leave the app and still see the countdown. Any time mentioned in a step is a one-tap timer, with presets for the rest.
Your pantry is remembered on your account and grouped, so the list stays short and the basics are always assumed on hand.
Anna's answers no longer go missing if you switch apps while she's thinking, and scans over 50 ingredients show how many to remove.
Small fixes and polish.
