Turn a page into a recipe
Give handwritten cards and saved screenshots a place in your collection.
Scan a recipe
Tap + and choose scan. Place the page on a contrasting surface in even light. Keep the full page inside the camera frame and avoid shadows across handwriting. Capture additional pages in recipe order; scanning supports up to 10 pages.
Use existing photos
Choose photos for a recipe already in your library. Select up to 10 images in reading order. Include the title, full ingredient list, directions, and any notes; crop out unrelated text when practical.
Review recognized text
Check the recognized text before continuing. Pay particular attention to fractions, decimal points, handwritten abbreviations, and oven temperatures. Correct unclear lines rather than guessing. Rescan a sharper, brighter image if too much is missing.
Keep the original handy
Text recognition helps with transcription; it cannot guarantee the meaning of every handwritten mark. Review the finished recipe against the original, especially quantities and instructions.
