- 📦KptnCook: Cook & Meal Planner updated to version 10.1.0iOSAhoy Captain! There’s reason to celebrate: we’ve got a big surprise on board for you!
- We’ve been tinkering, testing and trying things out – and now we can finally share it with you: our new Meal Plan! It makes planning your week more personal, more flexible and, most importantly, much more your own.
- You decide when your plan starts and which days you want to cook, choose your diet and food preferences, set your nutrition goals and budget, and tell us what you’re craving. Maybe a bowl, salad or pasta? Or something that’s perfect for meal prep over the next few days?
- You can even choose ingredients you’d love to use and pick a meal type for each day. That way, you can create a varied week that really fits you.
- And once your plan is ready? Helpful tags show you at a glance why a recipe is a great match for your preferences – and you’ll find the nutrition info right in the overview. Add notes to individual days or simply drag & drop recipes to move them around your week.
- And there’s a little goodie for everyone: even without a subscription, you can now use the Meal Plan with your saved favorite recipes.
- Prefer to stay on your usual course? “Plan for me” and “Plan yourself” are of course still on board.
We’ve been so excited to finally share the new Meal Plan with you – and we hope you love it as much as we do! It’s fresh out of the galley, so if you notice anything that doesn’t feel quite right or could work better, please let us know. Your feedback helps us make it even better.

Latest updates
10.3.0
Ahoy Captain!
So glad you're cooking with us! This update makes everyday cooking a little easier.
- Found a recipe you love? Save it with one tap right at the bottom of the recipe page, so it's easy to find when you're ready for round two.
- After cooking, you can now tell us more about how it went: Was the portion too small? Was an ingredient missing? Did everything turn out just right? Your feedback helps us keep making our recipes better.
- And for everyone cooking with an iPad: In cooking mode, your screen now stays on, even when you're right in the middle of chopping.
We've also been fine-tuning things below deck.
Have feedback? Drop us a line at [email protected]
10.2.0
Ahoy Captain! We're so happy you're cooking with us!
Fall is in the air, and our galley is filling up with delicious seasonal recipes perfect for cozy days in the kitchen.
- Our Fridge Finds feature just got a little upgrade! You can now see at a glance how many of your selected ingredients are used in each recipe. So it's easier to find something tasty to cook, make the most of what you already have, and cut down on food waste.
- Your meal plan just got even better, too! Now you can choose exactly which recipes and ingredients make it onto your shopping list. That means less hassle and more flexibility when it's time to shop!
- We've also been busy below deck, making a few improvements here and there to keep everything running smoothly while you cook up something delicious.
Got feedback? Drop us a line at [email protected]. We'd love to hear from you!
10.1.0
Ahoy Captain! There’s reason to celebrate: we’ve got a big surprise on board for you!
- We’ve been tinkering, testing and trying things out – and now we can finally share it with you: our new Meal Plan! It makes planning your week more personal, more flexible and, most importantly, much more your own.
- You decide when your plan starts and which days you want to cook, choose your diet and food preferences, set your nutrition goals and budget, and tell us what you’re craving. Maybe a bowl, salad or pasta? Or something that’s perfect for meal prep over the next few days?
- You can even choose ingredients you’d love to use and pick a meal type for each day. That way, you can create a varied week that really fits you.
- And once your plan is ready? Helpful tags show you at a glance why a recipe is a great match for your preferences – and you’ll find the nutrition info right in the overview. Add notes to individual days or simply drag & drop recipes to move them around your week.
- And there’s a little goodie for everyone: even without a subscription, you can now use the Meal Plan with your saved favorite recipes.
- Prefer to stay on your usual course? “Plan for me” and “Plan yourself” are of course still on board.
We’ve been so excited to finally share the new Meal Plan with you – and we hope you love it as much as we do! It’s fresh out of the galley, so if you notice anything that doesn’t feel quite right or could work better, please let us know. Your feedback helps us make it even better.
