1.1.0 is here! What's new: • Alchemist's Journey — 10 levels, 4 progress trails, and 40+ achievements (themed, individual, and secret) to track your growth in the kitchen. • Photo Alchemy — snap a photo of your fridge or pantry and let AI recognize the ingredients to generate recipes. • EPUB import — pull recipes straight from ebooks, with the same multi-recipe-per-file support already available for PDF. • Automatic translation — recipes imported in another language are now detected automatically and offer one-tap translation, including in batch when the file has multiple recipes. • Smart substitutions — ingredient swap suggestions (now with a choice between multiple options, including vegan ones) and serving-size scaling with cook-time estimates. • Quick time filter — find recipes under 15, 30, or 60 minutes right on the home screen. • A more complete Alchemy — pick servings and a max time for generated recipes, and reuse your last purchase's ingredients with one tap. • Shopping list grouped by market section (produce, dairy, butcher...) and a planner showing the full week with per-meal slots. Fixes: the shopping list now has a button to clear the whole cart; the keyboard now dismisses automatically when generating recipes in Alchemy; plus additional stability improvements.
