About this app

Snap a photo of any dish and Plate writes the recipe, ingredients, steps, and per-serving nutrition. Then saves it to a private cookbook that belongs only to you. Plate is an AI cookbook for people who actually cook. Point your camera at dinner, paste a link, or scan your grandmother's handwritten index card, and Plate turns it into a clean, structured recipe you can follow, scale, and keep forever. EVERY RECIPE YOU ALREADY HAVE, IN ONE PLACE • Photograph a finished dish and get the full recipe back • Paste a recipe URL, or an Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or X video link • Scan a printed cookbook page or a handwritten recipe card with your camera • Import straight from the screenshots already sitting in your camera roll • Save from anywhere with the share sheet THE SIGNATURE PLATE Plate does something no other recipe app does: it rebuilds your dish as a teardown image, every ingredient separated and floating into place, shot like editorial food photography. Choose from premium visual styles. COOK WITHOUT TOUCHING YOUR SCREEN Cook Mode walks you through one step at a time with built-in timers, a tickable ingredient checklist, and Live Activity timers right on your Lock Screen. Scale servings up or down and every amount recalculates. ASK SIRI, FIND IT IN SPOTLIGHT Hands full? Ask Siri what you can cook with what you have, search your cookbook, or open a recipe. Your recipes also appear in Spotlight search. COOKING TIPS FROM APPLE INTELLIGENCE On supported devices, Apple Intelligence adds cooking tips and optional extras to your recipes, privately on your iPhone. KNOW WHAT'S IN IT See estimated calories and macros for the whole recipe, per serving, and ingredient by ingredient. Adjust any amount and the numbers update. Allergen and dietary tags are surfaced on every recipe. These are AI estimates generated from your ingredient list, intended to help you cook thoughtfully. They are not medical or dietary advice, and they will vary by brand and preparation. Plate is not a calorie tracker — there are no daily budgets, no weight goals, and no guilt. COOK FROM WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE Tap the ingredients in your kitchen and Plate finds the recipes you can make right now, ranked by how much of your pantry they use. A COOKBOOK THAT REMEMBERS Your Yearbook collects every plate you cook into a private archive by month and year. Export any recipe as a high-resolution card or a PDF cookbook to print, share, or keep. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No feed. No followers. No likes. No comments. Your cookbook is yours, synced to your account so it survives a new phone, and deletable in full whenever you want. SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE Plate is fully translated into 20 languages, from Spanish and Turkish to Japanese, Arabic, and Hindi. PLATE PRO Plate is free to try. Pro unlocks unlimited saved recipes and lists, AI recipe creation from photos, links and paper scans, teardown image generation, every premium visual style, full ingredient nutrition, and watermark-free high-resolution and PDF export. We think paywalls should be honest. Plate never forces you into a trial to look around, and we don't take away features you already paid for. Photos and recipe text you submit are processed by third-party AI providers to generate recipes, nutrition estimates, and images. You are asked for permission before this happens, and you can delete your data at any time. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
