Developer: HeliosBit S.L.
First release : 14 Oct 2011
App size: 35.04 Mb
Welcome to the first cookbook App with MILLIONS of recipes at your fingertips!!!!!
Yes, you read it right, not kidding, this App will use the main web search engines to find the recipes you ask it for so you can save them locally in your device, and get back at them offline whenever and wherever you want. Native iPhone 5 and iPad 3 retina support!!!
Facebook, Twitter and DropBox supported!!!. Share recipes and let others know your cooking skills in your Facebooks wall and biography, or tweet it so your followers will call for a dinner invitation.
DropBox support added so you can safely store backups for your recipes in it. Your data protection is a main concern for us, never again lose your data because a network problem, an App bug or a user mistake.
Now you can print your recipes with any AirPrint compatible printer from within the App. Sharing with the non-techies made reality!! ;-)
Its a brand new concept for this kind of Apps, where you have total flexibility in the way you want to arrange and organize your recipes. Create your own categories (courses) if the most common doesnt fit you, and group your recipes as you like.
Automated recipe import from your favorite cooking websites. May automated import fail, or the recipe to import be in another format (email, note, text file...) you can still semi-automatically import the data, just copying&pasting, in a couple of minutes. Old and trusty hand input is also available.
Easy browsing based in the categories you define.
Advanced local searches, for every recipes item (prep. time, ingredients...)
Try it FREE and see whats all the buzz about by yourself with the only limitation of 20 recipes for free. Go the Premium way to add as many recipes as you want, unlock DropBox and rest of Pro features.
Detailed MANUAL in the App itself. It covers all the App functions and explains important tricks.
Full iPhone 3, 4, 5 and iPad 1,2 & 3 support, detailed Nutrition Facts per serving in every recipe (great for people on diets) and even more powerful searches.
Dramatically improved search and import engine, allowing you to select the language you want the app to work with. For the time being english, spanish, catalan, italian, portuguese, french and german are available, more coming soon. (This feature refers to the search&import function only, the interface is only available in english and spanish right now).
Local and remote (using DropBox) backup functionality, so you will never lose your data. Facebook backup also available, but while Dropbox backups and restores all of your recipes at once, Facebook works on a one by one basis.
- Whats left in the oven?? More languages, more social networks integration.... Well try to release new versions every 2-4 weeks...
Latest reviews of iRecipes HBit: The Ultimate Recipe Collector app for iPhone and iPad
I have been looking for a program that is easy and allows me to search the web and store the recipes I find within that program. This is quick and easy and I love it but the price of $6.99 is more then I am many like me can even afford. If you bring the price down to $2.00I and many others would buy it in a heart beat.
Search the web, find a recipe, click "capture" and viola! Always handy at your fingertips. Or add a recipe manually. Allows you to categorize like a recipe box. Send recipes via email and had a nice interface. 2 minor gripes that I would like to see addressed: 1. Wish there was a delete feature to remove unwanted recipes. 2. When I edit a recipe title it only saves capitalization on the first word. Maybe these features are in the premium version but I will not buy it at $6.99.
Been looking a long time for a good cookbook app. Found this gem a few months ago, but it needed a little refining and was a bit pricey. Looks like the new version has fixed most issues I had. Easy to add your favorite recipe wether from a web sight or from a family recipe book. The lower price is a better fit for the app, so go ahead and try it.
Unable to start, not working at all. I hate it.
I really love this app! Its simple and easy to use but still very powerful and lets me keep all my existing recipes organized as well as finding new ones online. I especially love the fact that the app includes iCloud support. Customer service is friendly and great too. I highly recommend this app.:)
