Makmak: Save Any Recipe

About this app

Makmak is a beautiful, private cookbook for iPhone, iPad, and Mac — a calm place to keep every recipe you love. No ads, no popups, no algorithm, no 2,000-word life story before the ingredients. And as of this update, the AI is free. Paste a link from TikTok, Instagram, or any recipe site and Makmak pulls out the real recipe — ingredients, steps, cook times, and a photo, with the blog noise stripped away. No account, no sign-up, no charge — there isn't even an account to make. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE — FREE One screen: paste a link (or a whole list), paste the recipe text, photograph a cookbook page, snap a plated dish and let Makmak write a best-guess recipe — or write down a family recipe that exists nowhere else. New here? Add starter recipes with one tap. ADAPT ANY RECIPE — FREE Every other recipe app stores recipes. This one changes them. Tap Adapt on anything in your library: - More protein — raised with real food, not powder - Smaller portions — less on the plate, the same protein - Gentler, higher fibre, lower sugar, cheaper - Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, keto, carnivore - Or just type what you want Eliminations catch the hidden sources too — the wheat in soy sauce, the dairy in ghee, the soy in tempeh. You see exactly what changed before you save, and the new version sits alongside the original. ALSO FREE Talk to your recipes — "make it for six" — and Makmak revises the whole thing; you review first. Ask Makmak for substitutions, scaling and technique. Per-serving nutrition, protein first. Say what's in your pantry, get what you can cook. Auto-fill a week of meals. GATHER — REAL RECIPES, NO FEED The anti-feed: no accounts, no endless scroll, no follower counts. A human-picked Recipe of the Week, and "From the Table," where people share recipes they actually cook. Share yours anonymously; it's reviewed first. MAKMAK PRO — FOR WATCHING VIDEO Pro is now for the one genuinely expensive thing: video. Let Makmak watch a YouTube video and read the recipe out of the spoken steps and on-screen text, import a cooking video saved on your phone, and get a much higher daily limit. Everything above is free. KEEP IT ORGANIZED Group recipes into Cookbooks — "Weeknight dinners," "Holiday baking," anything — and a recipe can live in as many as you like. Tag, favorite, and search. IN THE KITCHEN Cook Mode shows ingredients and steps in big, glanceable text, keeps the screen awake, and starts timers right from a step — on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Scale a recipe to feed two or twenty. PLAN THE WEEK, SHOP ONCE Plan meals a day at a time; Makmak combines them into one grocery list, grouped by aisle. Check items off as you shop. FEATURES - Free AI import from TikTok, Instagram, any recipe site — no account - Adapt any recipe: more protein, smaller portions, free-from, or anything you type - Cook this dish from a photo; read a cookbook page with the camera - Gather: a curated, no-account way to find and share real recipes - Cook Mode with Lock Screen and Dynamic Island timers - "Tonight's Dinner" widget, serving scaling, US/metric - Cookbooks, tags, favorites, fast typo-tolerant search - Share any recipe as a link or a card a friend can import - Private iCloud sync, fully offline, no account - Import and export anytime — never locked in PRIVACY FIRST Your recipes belong to you. Makmak keeps your cookbook on your device and syncs through your own iCloud — no account, no tracking, no ad profiles. Cloud features are off until you turn them on; when you use them, only the link, photo, or recipe you choose is sent to be read, and it's never stored. Save any recipe. Cook with confidence. Own your cookbook. Makmak Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: $2.99/month or $19.99/year. It renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime.

- Imports that used to come back empty now work — some posts write the whole recipe as one unbroken block of text, and Makmak reads those properly now - When a link doesn't work, Makmak tells you what it actually found instead of guessing that the recipe must be in the video

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
