Timers are now automatically detected, and a simple button lets you set them. Timers are available in the app, dynamic island, live activity, and widgets. This feature uses on-device intelligence and works even offline. Timers are recognized in English, Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic, German, Italian, and Portuguese.

- HUD *
Get hands-free step-by-step guidance using Siri. Ideal for large and small kitchens, sticky fingers, and when you want to focus on one step at a time. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, Mac, Apple Vision Pro, and HomePod.

95% there…!

So happy I found this app!

This is THE most user friendly recipe app I have seen to date. So many ways to make the way you collect and categorize your recipes so simply sculpted. URL downloads, meal planning, and even entering your own scratch recipes is wonderful.
Scaling recipes is a great addition to an app, because the number of people we love to cook our favorites for does change occasionally, and this truly makes cooking for two so much easier.

The only things keeping me from giving this 5-stars are the following:

*The ability to print recipes.
People frequently ask for recipes and I like to print them out.
*For the app to work on my iPad.
I updated my iPad and it is apparently still not supported? Hmmmm

*A one-time payment option rather than having to pay monthly (this may actually cause me to, albeit very sadly, give up the app as I have a difficult time paying monthly for more than my utilities.

I will keep checking back on this app for updates, because I am just so pleased with it, and I hope I can edit this at some point and make the rating a full 5 stars.

Developer Response ,

Hi and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us!



We’ll add printing recipes on our list of requests. While we look into that I hope you consider having the recipe printed from the web. To do that click the Share button on a recipe and then pretend you’re going to have it sent via Messages. Without actually sending the message, copy the URL that gets created and then have it pasted in your web browser. Below the recipe image, among the social media buttons, you’ll find a print button.



Regarding using Kookin on your iPad, make sure you have it updated to iPadOS 16 as we unfortunately can support only the latest OS. Please let me know if this issue continues to persist. 



I understand your economical situation, especially giving the global situation currently. We hope we have enough features in the free version for you to consider to continue using it. With each update we try our best to keep all users in the Kookin Community happy :)



All the best and Happy Holidays,

Sofia

5 stars for potential

…but Siri is not working. And instructions widget doesn’t quite make sense if you have to go back into app to switch to next step. And a couple other glitches but overall very good! Also adding a grocery shopping list would make it top tier .

Developer Response ,

Hi! Thank you for your rating and your feedback. You can update both the Live Activity Widget and the Home Screen Widget using Siri by activating “Kookin It” in the recipe you want to make. To see the next instruction say “Hey Siri, Kookin next instruction”. If this doesn’t work for you, please send me an e-mail on sofia@ambi.se and we’ll get to the bottom of this. We’ll add grocery shopping to our list of requests :)

Happy Kookin! / Sofia

Perfect! But….

Hi Developer, I was just loving it so far on my iPad so far. But I would love to add Siri on it, and that will be awesome! Unfortunately, I had just made 2 new recipes and it didn’t save on my Apple Watch. I don’t use my iPad that often! It would be a 5 star it you added Siri and made the recipes on phone, iPad, tv, whatever, save on my watch. Thank you! I was also wondering how to sign in to iCloud

Developer Response ,

Hi and thank you for your feedback! 
In the Shortcuts app you can see all the shortcuts for Ambre that you can use with Siri. For your recipes to sync across your devices, make sure you are signed in to your iCloud and have iCloud Drive turned on for all your devices you want to sync across. Sometimes the syncing need up to a minute, so please keep Ambre open on the device you’re syncing to. 
If you need any further instructions or have any other feedback, feel free to reach out via email at sofia@ambi.se or cesar@ambi.se / Sincerely, Sofia.

Update:

For us to help you the best way possible regarding iCloud, please send us an email to either cesar@ambi.se or sofia@ambi.se. / Sincerely, Sofia
