Recipe backup
Export everything as readable JSON, any time. Your recipes stay yours, on or off ChopCue.
How it works
From Settings → Export my recipes, save a full backup of your recipe library as a JSON file you can keep anywhere.
Restore from a backup brings recipes back from a previously exported file, which is useful after a device switch or a fresh install.
If you are signed in, recipes also sync to your account automatically in the background, but this is always a mirror of the local copy, never the source of truth.
Why it matters
Local storage is deliberately the source of truth in ChopCue, so saving a recipe never depends on the network. Export/import and account sync are both built on top of that, not instead of it, so your recipes are never locked into one device, one account, or ChopCue’s own server.
