Just a small bug fix and improvement update here! Here’s what changed: Improvements: – The print size for recipes will stick between sessions. – Formatted notes can now be reset to have no formatting. – Grams will not longer display as “308½g”, they will instead round to whole numbers. – Teaspoons will no longer display as tablespoons when scaled, unless they’re exactly halfway between a measurement. – Ingredients now show a more focused layout, with only the quantity and unit highlighted in green. – Recipes wouldn’t sync to your calendar from your meal plan. – Scaled recipes could have formatting issues. – Steps could duplicate themselves when editing a recipe. – Pounds, when written as “lbs” might not get picked up. – Refetching an image could fail. – Serving sizes couldn’t be changed in some cases. – Recipes scaled by 10 could incorrectly show large quantities.

Fixed a bug that could make reordering ingredients result in seemingly shuffled ingredients, sorry about that one!

Fixed a bug that could prevent recipes from being able to be added to the meal plan in select screens.

Mostly a bug fix update here, but I’ve also added one new feature! Added: – Smart Folders now let you filter with a recipes name. And some fixes also: – Pestle shouldn’t show in the share sheet when using Chrome – “.75oz” would parse as “75oz” and scale incorrectly. – Searching for “Pears” wouldn’t show recipes where an ingredient was just “1 pear”.

Hey everyone, it’s been a minute! There’s lots of great upgrades in Pestle 2.1.6, so let’s get into it: New: - Ingredient sections are now supported on more sites - You can now reimport recipes – Newly supported sites Fixes: - A couple of you wrote in with an odd bug you'd spotted, where ingredients would convert a bit weirdly. For example, "1 cup water" could convert to "1 mL water", obviously not ideal - When searching, certain characters could fail to produce results some times. - The keyboard couldn't be dismissed when searching. - The Meal Plan widget would use low quality images. - Pestle could crash when adding a recipe to a folder. - Shared recipes couldn't be opened.

And now units will automatically convert if they’re above a threshold, for example “3 tsp” will because “1 tbsp”. – You can now get to timers from the recipe viewer page by tapping the … button. Fixes: – A crash could occur if you deleted the last category/cuisine in a list – The Discover page’s Pestle Pro warning could double up. – Moving steps between sections could result in unpredictable behaviour. – Some search results could be included when they shouldn’t be. – The Meal Plan widget wouldn’t reload quickly enough. – The Shopping List quick launch action wouldn’t work. – Recipes from ATK could have incorrect quantities – Recipe deletion could fail in some cases – PDF importing wouldn’t work if initiated out of app – Pestle could crash if you tried to share a recipe on iPad. – Deleted categories could come back. 2.1.1 fixes: – Ingredients using cups could display as tablespoons 2.1.2 fixes: – Ingredients may display incorrectly. 2.1.3 fixes: – Smart Folders might not appear after creating new folders – Notes wouldn’t import from Paprika 2.1.4 fixes: – The recipe scanner would show some very strange code! 2.1.5 fixes: – Saving a recipe might result in Pestle saying you saved it on a different device.
