Questions, answered

Which sites does it work on?

Any site that publishes standard recipe data, which is most food blogs and all the big recipe sites. When a page has a recipe, the whisk button appears.

Is it really free?

Yes. No account, no trial, no paid tier. Install it and it works.

Does it work on iPhone?

Chrome and Firefox today. The Safari version for iPhone is finished and in App Store review right now.

Does it change the website?

No. The reader is a view just for you, on top of the page. Tap the whisk again and the site is exactly as it was.

What if a recipe doesn't load?

Report the page from the extension in two taps. Reports are how broken sites get fixed.

Dinner's waiting.

Install it free, open a recipe, tap the whisk.
