Bentofy
Recipe Manager & Meal Planner
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad
Now rebuilt in Swift for a faster, smoother experience. Save recipes from anywhere, plan meals in minutes, and enjoy a beautiful kitchen companion.
Bentofy is your personal meal planning assistant. Plan the week, save recipes from anywhere, and get AI-powered suggestions so you spend less time deciding what to eat and more time enjoying it.
ONE PLACE FOR EVERYTHING
• Meal calendar. View your week, day, or month. Drag and drop meals between days and slots. See today’s meals at a glance.
• Your recipe library. Save and organise recipes. Import from Safari, Instagram, or any link with the Share extension—no need to open the app.
• Grocery list & pantry. Items sync from your planned meals. Track what you have in the pantry and get gentle reminders before ingredients expire.
• AI meal planner. Ask “What can I make with chicken and broccoli?” or send a photo of your fridge. Get ideas, add to your plan, or add items to your list by voice when your hands are full.
PLAN THE WAY YOU COOK
• Personalised from day one. Tell us your favourite cuisines, diet, allergies, and how often you cook. Suggestions and weekly “chef’s choice” picks are tailored to you.
• Weekly recommendations. Bentofy Pro suggests a set of recipes for the week based on your tastes and what you have on hand. Pick what you like and add them to your plan in one tap.
• Recipe collections. Group recipes into collections (e.g. “Quick weeknights”, “Sunday roasts”). Filter by category, difficulty, cuisine, or cook time.
SMART GROCERY & PANTRY
• One list. Add items manually or by voice (Siri or in-app). Plan meals and see ingredients flow into your list.
• Pantry tracking. Log what’s in your pantry with optional expiry dates. Get “use it soon” ideas so you waste less and use what you have.
• Works offline. Your grocery list is available when you’re in the store, even without signal. Changes sync when you’re back online.
IMPORT RECIPES FROM ANYWHERE
• Share to Bentofy. See a recipe on a blog, Instagram, or Pinterest? Use Share → Bentofy to save the link. The app can extract the recipe so you can add it to your library and plan.
• Your recipes, your way. Add your own recipes with photos, ingredients, and steps. Scale servings and keep everything in one place.
BUILT FOR IPHONE & IPAD
• Native and fast. Redesigned and rebuilt with SwiftUI for a smooth, responsive experience.
• Dark mode & accent colours. Match your device and your style.
• Optional Bentofy Pro. Unlock AI chat, weekly recommendations, unlimited recipes, and a synced grocery list. Subscribe when you’re ready; you can explore the app first.
Whether you meal prep on Sunday, decide day by day, or just want one place for recipes and shopping, Bentofy keeps your kitchen organised and dinner decided.

Ratings & Reviews
This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Bentofy is now a native iOS app. Here’s what’s new, from the changes that help you most to the rest.
FASTER, SMOOTHER APP
Bentofy is rebuilt natively for iPhone and iPad. Launches are quicker, scrolling is smoother, and the app feels tuned to your device. Your data and preferences are preserved—same account, same recipes, same plan.
SAVE RECIPES WITHOUT OPENING THE APP
See a recipe on Safari, Instagram, or Pinterest? Tap Share → Bentofy and save the link. The app picks it up when you open it later. No need to switch apps or copy URLs.
GROCERY LIST THAT WORKS IN THE STORE
Your grocery list is available even when you have no signal. Add or tick items offline; changes sync when you’re back online. No more “I left my list at home” or dead zones in the aisle.
PANTRY + “USE IT SOON” REMINDERS
Track what’s in your pantry with optional expiry dates. Get gentle reminders before ingredients go bad, plus recipe ideas that use them—so you waste less and cook with what you have.
SEND A PHOTO TO YOUR MEAL PLANNER
In Chat (Bentofy Pro), send a photo of your fridge or a recipe (cookbook, scrap paper). The AI suggests what to make or extracts the recipe so you can add it to your library. No typing required.
VOICE INPUT
Ask the meal planner out loud or add groceries by voice—in the app or with Siri (“Add to my Bentofy grocery list”). Hands-free when you’re cooking or pushing a trolley.
OMAKASE (CHEF’S CHOICE) FOR THE WEEK
Get a set of personalised recipe suggestions for the week based on your tastes and what you have. Pick what you want and add them to your plan in one tap (Bentofy Pro).
DRAG-AND-DROP CALENDAR
Move meals between days and meal slots by dragging. Native drag-and-drop makes replanning the week faster and more intuitive.
