❓ Frequently Asked Questions

\n\n

\n Why isn't my recipe URL parsing correctly?\n

\n Some websites block automated parsing or have unusual formatting. Try copying\n the recipe text manually or taking a screenshot to upload as an image instead.\n

\n\n

\n Can I edit ingredients after adding a recipe?\n

\n Yes! Click on any recipe to edit ingredients, amounts, or instructions.\n Changes will be reflected in future shopping lists.\n

\n\n

\n How does ingredient combining work in shopping lists?\n

\n The app automatically detects similar ingredients (like \"kosher salt\" and \"salt\")\n and combines them. Each combined item shows which recipes it came from.\n

\n\n

\n Can I add items that aren't from recipes?\n

\n Absolutely! In any shopping list, click \"Add Item Manually\" to include\n household items, snacks, or anything else you need.\n

\n\n

\n What image formats are supported?\n

\n JPG, PNG, and PDF files work best. Make sure recipe text is clear and\n well-lit for the best parsing results.\n

\n\n

\n Is my data saved automatically?\n
