Grandma’s handwritten recipe cards, saved forever. Photograph, type up, add the story – and create your family cookbook.
Kitchen Legacy keeps your family’s handwritten recipes safe – the original card, the recipe and the story behind it.
Photograph the card (several pages too), type it up with the original shown large next to it, and add who it came from, the year or occasion and a memory. Little by little your family cookbook grows.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• New start screen with logo and a short animation
• Tapping Cancel now asks first, so a half-finished recipe is never lost.
• When scaling, eggs and the like round to whole or half pieces, and small amounts of liquid show in ml.
• Larger tap areas and a notice when the number of servings doesn't work.
• Notices are shorter, stay out of the way and can be tapped away.
