The HobPad app icon

The kitchen notebook that writes your shopping list.

HobPad keeps recipes, notes and todo lists in one place. Photograph a recipe and HobPad files it and names it. When you are ready to cook, one tap turns it into an ingredient shopping list.

Coming soon to the App Store

How it works

  1. 01Photograph a recipe from a book or magazine, or import a PDF. HobPad stores it and gives it a sensible name.
  2. 02Tap Create ingredient list. HobPad reads every page, merges repeated ingredients, and can scale the quantities to how many you are cooking for.
  3. 03The list arrives in your todos, ready to tick off at the shop.

Pricing

Notes, todo lists, recipe storage and recipe photography are free, without limits. Turning a recipe page into a shopping list uses one conversion credit. Every new install includes five free credits, and further credits are sold in packs inside the app. Credits never expire.
