Scran is an inclusive cooking app designed for neurodivergent cooks and helpful for anyone who wants to simplify cooking.
If you lose your place, reread instructions, miss ingredients or feel overwhelmed by recipes, Scran helps you stay on track and feel more confident in the kitchen.
SIMPLIFY RECIPES
Turn saved recipes into steps that are easier to follow.
Scran pulls prep upfront, puts ingredient amounts directly inside the steps and breaks longer instructions into smaller tasks you can tick off as you cook.
Your original recipe is always kept alongside the simplified version, so you can return to it whenever you need to.
SAVE RECIPES FROM WHEREVER YOU FIND THEM
Save unlimited recipes from websites, social media, screenshots, photos and cookbooks into one visual library.
Organise them into your own collections, ready to simplify and cook from.
COOK WITH LESS MENTAL LOAD
Use Cook Mode to follow recipes one step at a time, keep track of your progress and clearly see what comes next.
Adjust the text size and appearance, choose from accessible font options, scale servings and convert measurements.
SHOP WITHOUT MISSING AN INGREDIENT
Turn your saved recipes to a shopping list, sorted by aisle and ready to tick off as you shop.
Easily add the extra items you need.
CO-DESIGNED WITH NEURODIVERGENT COOKS
Scran has been co-designed with real home cooks, including people with ADHD, dyslexia and autism, to reduce the demands traditional recipes can place on planning, reading, focus and memory.
Spend less energy trying to follow the recipe and more time enjoying the cooking!

I absolutely love this app! I’m constantly finding amazing recipes on TikTok and Instagram, saving them with every intention of making them… and then they just sit in my saved folder forever because I can never be bothered scrolling back through everything to find them. This app has completely solved that problem. It takes the recipe straight from the original source and turns it into something so much easier to follow. Everything is organised clearly, which makes cooking feel so much less effort. It saves me time, makes recipes more efficient to follow, and genuinely does exactly what it says on the tin. I’ve already actually been making all those recipes I’ve been saving for so long! Would highly recommend!

A brilliant app that I actually use!! I’m so bad for downloading loads of app and never opening them again, but Scran has been the first app in a long time that I’ve felt is genuinely useful and I enjoy using it. I find trying to follow recipes online quite overwhelming and difficult so this has made it so much easier to take each step at a time, ticking off as I go along. Love that you can store your recipes in collections as well so they’re easy to find, rather than endlessly scrolling through my saved folder on Instagram looking for a recipe. Great app!

My favourite thing about this app is that I can save my recipes from everywhere - Pinterest, insta, etc in one place when usually I would never return to these recipes after saving them. Then I can format all my recipes in the same way, cutting out all the fluff from the recipes so I can focus on the ingredients and method. Takes out all of the stress from planning meals when everything is in one place and cooking and saves me a lot of time. Highly recommend!

10/10 app for making 10/10 scran

Genuinely once you start using scran, you won’t go back!! The unique simplify feature (absolute genius) takes all the tricks and trip-ups and teaspoon/tablespoon nonsense out of the recipes you love, and makes cooking not only easier and more achievable but also actually FUN again? Plus if you’re anything like me it’s such a useful place to store and organise all the recipes you find and save on TikTok and Instagram and means you actually use them. Love it!

Wow, a 10/10 review, thank you! We’re so glad Simplify is taking the trip-ups out of recipes and making cooking feel achievable and fun again 💛
Good recipes turn up everywhere. Now there are even more ways to bring them into Scran.
• Share from any app: Spotted something tasty? Send links, text or photos to Scran from Instagram, TikTok, Safari, Notes, Photos and more. Our new guides show you how, including how to pin Scran to your share sheet for easy access.
• Import from text: That recipe hiding in your Notes? Paste or type it into Scran and we’ll get it ready to cook from.
• Recipes from ChatGPT: From “what’s for dinner?” to ready to cook. Share a ChatGPT chat or message and Scran will pick out the recipe.
• Better photo imports: A recipe that won’t fit in one photo? Share up to 5 photos per recipe. Scran now reads long screenshots and large photos in more detail.
• Better Pinterest imports: Put those pins on the menu. Scran can now read recipes written on pin images and handle more types of pin.
• Accessibility: We’ve improved VoiceOver and TalkBack support when adding recipes, and text boxes now use your chosen font.
We’ve also tidied up a few bugs to keep things running smoothly.
