The 6 best ReciMe alternatives in 2026.

Pestle is built around the same idea as ReciMe: share a post from Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or YouTube, or a page from any website, and it keeps just the ingredients and steps. When it can't pull a recipe out, it saves a bookmark that takes you back to the source instead. Its guided cooking turns a recipe into steps with as many timers as you want, and with SharePlay you can cook along with someone on FaceTime.

It runs on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, with a Chrome extension for saving. The free version keeps 15 recipes, with the shopping list, a pantry and guided cooking; Pestle Pro ($24.99 a year, or a lifetime purchase) adds unlimited recipes, sync, meal plans, recipe scanning and Households for sharing recipes and meal plans with family.

Plan to Eat has helped people plan meals from their own recipes since 2008, on the web, iPhone and Android. The share extension that comes with its phone app clips recipes from Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, its Recipe Clipper saves them from websites, and every recipe goes into a drag-and-drop planner and an aisle-by-aisle shopping list. The phone app keeps your recipes, the planner and the current list on the phone, so they work offline and sync later.

It costs more than ReciMe Plus: $5.95 a month or $49 a year, after a 14-day trial that needs no card, with a 60-day money-back guarantee. There's no free plan, a household shares one login, and Plan to Eat decided against a pantry.

Paprika is the long-standing choice for owning your recipe app: native apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android and Windows that work offline, with a built-in browser for saving recipes, a meal planner, a grocery list and a pantry. Paprika 3 is bought once per platform ($4.99 on iPhone and iPad, $29.99 on Mac).

Social media importing is new in Paprika 4, in open beta since September 28, 2026 and open to current Paprika users: it saves recipes from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube, and family members each get their own login. Paprika says the beta's premium features will need a subscription once the beta ends. There's no web app.

Recipe Keeper finds recipes on the web, Instagram and TikTok and adds them to your collection, and scans recipes from the camera, your photos and PDF files with OCR, so cookbooks, magazines and handwritten cards come in too. It has native apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android and Windows that sync with each other and work offline, a weekly and monthly meal planner, and a shopping list grouped by aisle.

Its Pro upgrade is bought separately on each platform ($19.99 on iPhone, iPad and Android, $29.99 on Mac), with no subscription listed in its stores, and there's no web app.

Copy Me That saves your own copy of a recipe from websites and from most apps, social media apps included, with one-click Chrome and Firefox extensions, a meal planner, a shopping list sorted by category or recipe, and a pantry list. It runs in any browser and on iPhone and Android, and one membership covers every device.

It's free, with every feature, up to 40 recipes, then about $1 a month, or a yearly or lifetime membership. It's simple: we couldn't find a step-by-step cooking mode, cookbook-photo import or nutrition, a family shares one login, and syncing needs a connection.
