Pinterest Bulk importing, Family sharing with "Pods", and imports got a lot better. PODS (BETA) Share your cookbooks, the weekly meal plan, the shopping list and a group chat with up to 5 people, all on one subscription. Invite with a code, cook off the same plan. PINTEREST BOARD IMPORT Point Recipe Pod at any Pinterest board and bulk-import the recipes from it, with live progress as it scans. SIMPLE AND SMART IMPORT Choose how a link gets imported: Simple pulls the recipe straight from the page, Smart uses AI to clean up whatever it finds. Imports now handle compressed pages, blog-style sites and cook times written in any format. BETTER TIMERS Cooking timers are now backed by a real alarm, so they still go off with the app closed, and you can adjust one mid-cook without starting over. EARN FREE PRO The new Bounty Board pays out Pro time for invites and small tasks. Invite a friend and you both get rewarded. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE - Redesigned navigation with a floating tab bar and a full More menu - In-app guides that walk you through each screen the first time - A new app icon, with light, dark and tinted versions on iOS - Sign in and create an account on one screen - An in-app feedback form so you can tell us what's broken - Reminders that fire on your clock, not the server's - Cook Mode fixes: the wake word no longer goes deaf after answering, "start the timer" resumes a paused timer, and long steps size to fit

RecipePod 1.5.0 is here — our biggest update yet for hands-free cooking, smarter recipe imports, and a totally rebuilt shopping list. HANDS-FREE COOKING ASSISTANT Cook Mode now runs on a faster, more reliable voice assistant. Ask for an ingredient amount, jump to the next step, or start a timer — all without touching your screen. We fixed audio playback issues, tightened wake-word accuracy, and made the assistant go quiet during the right moments so it never talks over you. SMARTER RECIPE IMPORTS Multi-part recipes — think dough, filling, and frosting — now import with clean, separate ingredient sections instead of one long list. Works across more recipe sites than ever, and we fixed a bug that could drop ingredient amounts written as fractions (like ½ or ¾) during import. SHOPPING LIST, REBUILT Swipe to delete items, edit and rename lists inline, check off everything at once, and long-press any ingredient to add it straight to a list. Duplicate items now merge automatically, and the shopping list header got a fresh new look with progress tracking. FASTER, SMOOTHER APP Recipes and instructions now load instantly from cache, with polished loading animations and no more flickering when you switch screens. ANDROID IMPROVEMENTS New edge-swipe-back gesture for easier one-handed navigation, smoother Cook Mode with no more black-screen flicker on high-refresh-rate phones, and fixed voice assistant audio playback. SMARTER PERMISSIONS We now ask for camera, microphone, and notification access only when a feature actually needs it — with a clear, plain-English explanation before the system prompt appears.

Cooking just got a serious upgrade. Truly hands-free cooking — Your AI cooking assistant is now fully voice-activated. Just say "Hey Pea Pod" and ask for the next step, a substitution, or a timer — no tapping, no scrubbing back through the recipe with messy hands. It's like having a sous-chef who never touches your phone. Now on Android too — Recipe Pod is officially on Android, so you can finally share your cookbook with friends and family no matter what phone they carry. Cook Mode front and center — The step-by-step cooking view is easier to reach and better than ever for following along at the stove. A fresh look and smoother navigation — We polished the interface and reorganized how you move through the app so everything feels faster and more natural. A warmer welcome — New here? A quick intro walks you through everything Recipe Pod can do. Plus dozens of smaller improvements and fixes throughout. Happy cooking!
