A Home for Your Recipes
Found a recipe on Instagram or TikTok? Have a handwritten family recipe you want to preserve? Mangerate brings them together in one place. Import recipes from social media and websites, turn handwritten and printed recipes into digital recipes, and organize everything into collections that are easy to search and use.
Plan your meals, create grocery lists, cook step by step, and share your favorite recipes with family and friends. No subscriptions. No Mangerate account to create. Your personal recipe collection is stored on your devices and synced through your iCloud account.
Grandma’s handwritten recipe cards. Recipes scribbled on scraps of paper. Old cookbooks and printed recipes.
Take a photo, and Mangerate transforms them into digital recipes you can organize, search, cook from, and share. No retyping required.
Discover something delicious on Instagram or TikTok? Bring the recipe into Mangerate instead of losing track of it in a saved post. You can also import recipes from websites and add your own recipes whenever inspiration strikes.
Switching from another recipe manager? Mangerate also supports imports from Paprika, Mela, and Recipe Keeper.
Choose what you want to cook and schedule recipes for specific days. Or add recipes to Up Next when you know you want to make them but haven’t picked a date yet.
From tonight’s dinner to recipes you’ve been meaning to try, Mangerate helps you keep your cooking plans organized.
Every recipe in Mangerate belongs to a collection. Start with “My Recipes,” your personal collection synced through your iCloud account. From there, you can:
Whether you’re organizing weeknight staples, collecting holiday favorites with siblings, or swapping ideas with friends, Mangerate keeps your recipes together.
Use your iPhone on the go, or switch to your iPad in the kitchen with a fully optimized layout. In cooking mode, ingredients and steps are easy to follow, and on iPad you can see them side by side. You can even have your iPad read the steps aloud, so you can keep your cooking hands off the touchscreen.
Your personal recipes stay in sync across your devices through your iCloud account.
Mangerate doesn’t require a separate account or store your personal recipe collection on Mangerate servers. Your recipes are kept on your devices and in your iCloud account, with sharing managed through Apple’s CloudKit. You choose which collections to share and with whom.
Create a shared recipe collection and invite others to contribute. Everyone manages their own recipes — no one else can edit them. The collection owner controls membership and can remove recipes from the shared collection.
Share family favorites, build a collection with friends, or keep your personal recipes just for yourself.

Simple ways to pass along the recipes you love.
No subscriptions. No Mangerate login screens.

Mangerate is free to download, with optional one-time upgrades for additional features and capacity.
Mangerate is a made-up word — born in a multilingual home where English, French, and Italian intermingle daily. It blends the French “manger” and Italian “mangiare” (both meaning “to eat”) into something new: a verb, a vibe, a way to share what you cook and love.
To Mangerate is to cook, collect, and share — on your terms.
Curious how Mangerate began? It started as a small pandemic project that grew into a recipe app. You can read the story on Medium.
Whether you’re cooking from a French blog, a Spanish food magazine, or your grandma’s handwritten Italian recipe, Mangerate keeps the original language of your recipes intact.
Recipes retain their ingredients and instructions in their original language, while Mangerate’s interface is available in seven languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, German, Dutch, and Brazilian Portuguese.
Because recipes should speak the same language you do.
Mangerate is a recipe manager for iPhone and iPad. Save recipes from Instagram, TikTok, and websites; scan handwritten and printed recipes; organize personal and shared collections; plan meals; follow cooking steps; and create grocery lists. Mangerate uses iCloud for syncing and sharing, with no separate Mangerate account or subscription required.
