Features
Every feature, in detail
How ChopCue actually works, screen by screen, and why each part exists.
The core loop
Guided Cook Mode
One step per screen, with a large, glanceable timer, never a wall of text.
Multi-timer queue
Several named timers running at once, because real cooking rarely has just one thing on the stove.
Prep board
Get everything measured and ready before the heat goes on: mise en place, built in.
One-tap ingredient picker
A 220+ ingredient catalogue with fractions, units, and swap suggestions. Searching for "salt" should not mean typing it from scratch.
Getting recipes in
Import from any URL
Paste a link, or share a page straight from your browser. The recipe lands pre-filled and still editable.
Recipe editor
Write your own recipe from scratch, with photo, steps, timers, the works, and never lose a half-finished draft.
Barcode scanner
Scan a package barcode to add it to your grocery list, without typing a product name.
The kitchen around the cook
Pantry & My Fridge
What is on hand, in sections you name yourself: one screen, not two separate destinations.
Grocery list
Add any recipe’s ingredients, already scaled to your servings: categorized, reorderable, and cost-aware.
Meal planner
Week and month views, a recipe for every slot, and the slots are yours to rename.
Diet & Preferences
Allergy warnings across nine allergens, and calorie estimates that are always clearly labeled as estimates.
Community & ownership
Explore
A public feed of recipes from other cooks, browsable by cuisine, drink, diet, or style.
CookSnaps
Post a photo of your own attempt on someone else’s recipe: the proof-it-worked layer under every shared dish.
Family sharing
Join by code or email invite: one shared grocery list, recipe pool, and meal planner for the people you cook for.
Recipe backup
Export everything as readable JSON, any time. Your recipes stay yours, on or off ChopCue.
