Mealie in your pocket.
A fast, native iPhone and iPad app for your self-hosted Mealie server. Browse recipes, cook step by step, plan the week, and shop from a list that syncs with Apple Reminders.
Works with Mealie v2.0 and later. Requires your own Mealie server.
Your whole recipe box.
Browse as a photo grid or a detailed list. Search, sort, and filter by favorites, cookbook, category, tag, or tool, with infinite scroll through even the biggest libraries.
Rate, favorite, share, and edit recipes all in the app.
Cook Mode with text you can read across the counter.
Cook mode shows each step large and on its own, along with just the ingredients that step needs.
- Timers from the recipe. "Simmer for 10 minutes" becomes a button. The countdown shows on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and an alarm rings when it's done, even on silent.
- Scale servings and every quantity follows.
- Screen stays awake while you cook.
- "I Made This" at the end logs it to the recipe's timeline in Mealie.
Weekly meal planning quick and easy.
See the whole week at a glance. Add a recipe or a quick note to any day and meal, or let Mealie pick a random recipe when nobody can decide.
Plan to list in one tap. Add the whole week's ingredients to your groceries with the shopping cart icon.
iOS native shopping list that auto categorizes.
If you have foods on Mealie categorized (using the seed dataset) MealieMobile will categorize them in the grocery list. If you utilize the new iOS Grocery list in reminders the categorization is automatic.
On Hand pantry. Mark staples like salt and olive oil as On Hand, and they start unchecked when you add a recipe to groceries, so you only buy what you need.
Shop from Reminders. Siri, Apple Watch, or any Apple Device.
Pair your Mealie list with a Reminders list and changes flow both ways: check off milk on your Watch, ask Siri to add eggs, or let someone at home add to the list from the Reminders app. Set the list type to Groceries and Reminders sorts everything into aisles for you.
Everyone's changes merge
A three-way merge tracks what changed on each side since the last sync, so edits never ping-pong and the newer change wins.
Pairings that stick
Every reminder carries a link to its Mealie item, so pairs survive reinstalls, iCloud resets, and several phones syncing the same list.
Safely handles changes
If a lot of items vanish from one side at once, sync pauses and asks before deleting anything on the other.
Save a recipe from anywhere.
Paste a link and Mealie's scraper does the rest. Snap a photo of a cookbook page or paste text for Mealie's AI import, or write one from scratch with sections, notes, tags, and categories.
Parse Ingredients runs Mealie's parser so every ingredient is linked to a food, ready for unit conversion and On Hand.
Save to Mealie. Tap Share in Safari or any app and send a recipe straight to your server, without opening MealieMobile.
Built for how you actually cook.
Made for iPad
Ingredients stay pinned in one column while you work through the steps in the other. The meal plan becomes a week grid, and Split View just works.
Siri & Shortcuts
"Add to groceries in MealieMobile" and "Sync groceries" work from Siri, the Shortcuts app, and your automations.
Sign in once
Your password is used once to create a Mealie API token, which is kept in the Keychain. Or paste a token you already have.
Home-lab friendly
Plain-HTTP servers on your LAN are fine, e.g. http://192.168.1.20:9000. No
reverse proxy required. Or structure anything between your Mealie instance and the web. Just works how you
do.
Quick actions
Long-press a recipe, or swipe a row, to favorite it, add it to the meal plan, or share it.
No tracking
No account with us, no analytics, no ads. The app talks to your Mealie server and nothing else. Read the privacy policy.
