Add recipes

Paste a link, keep the recipe

Drop in a recipe page or an Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube post. Daily Simmer turns it into a clean recipe: title, ingredients, steps, servings, and timing, with a photo and the place it came from.

Make it yours

Cook it your way

Guests coming over? Ask Simmer, your AI sous chef, to make it vegetarian. It swaps what needs swapping and rewrites the steps that change.

  • Changes are shown side by side, so you can review them and keep refining.
  • Want to keep both versions? Remix it: a linked copy that is yours to change, with the original untouched.
  • Start from an idea, a craving, or whatever is in the fridge.

Your library

The recipes you actually cook, in one place

Weeknights, holidays, the dishes everyone asks for: file them into collections, see what you cooked last, and find any recipe by name or ingredient in a second.

Collections
Group recipes the way you cook, and share a collection with the people who need it.
Cook history
Every recipe remembers when you last made it and how often.
Sharing
Send one recipe with a link, or open a collection to friends and family.
Search and filters
Find it by ingredient, name, or what still needs a photo.

Plan and shop

Plan it, shop it

Place saved recipes on the days ahead, then add the week to one shopping list, quantities merged and sorted by aisle.

Cook

Cook it one step at a time

Cooking mode puts the step you are on in big, clear type, with its timers right inside it, so you can glance over from the stove and keep going.

  • Tap a time in the step to start its timer. It keeps counting if the pan needs longer.
  • Cook several dishes at once, each with its own timers.
  • Close the tab by accident and your place and timers are still there.

Everything in Daily Simmer

Daily Simmer keeps your recipes in one library. Save them from websites, social posts, photos, and other recipe apps, change them to suit you, plan the week, shop from one list, and cook step by step.

Questions, answered

What can I add to my library?

Recipe websites, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube posts, photos of handwritten or printed recipes, recipes you write yourself, and recipes Simmer helps you create from an idea.

Can I bring my recipes from another app?

Yes. Export a backup from the app you use now and upload it to the import wizard. It shows you what it found, brings each recipe across with its photo, and leaves the app you left untouched. See which apps it works with.

What does Free include?

Up to 25 recipes, imports from recipe websites, 5 social-post imports a month, planning, shopping lists, and cooking mode. Free also includes weekly AI usage. No card needed.

Will a recipe change without my approval?

No. When Simmer proposes a change you see the before and after first. Keep it, ask for something different, or discard it. When you want a second version, say a spicier take on a family favourite, make a Remix: a linked copy that is yours to change while the original stays exactly as it was.

Where can I use it?

In any modern browser on your desktop, tablet, and phone. Cooking mode and shopping lists are built for the counter and the aisle.

Is there a mobile app?

It's at a rolling boil. The Daily Simmer app is nearly ready and on its way. Until it lands, everything works in your phone's browser, cooking mode and shopping lists included.

Do I keep control of my recipes?

Yes. Export everything as a restorable archive or portable recipe JSON from Settings whenever you like, and delete anything for good. Our privacy policy explains what we store and why.
