#2It can get frustrating skimming through text walls just to find the recipe on blogs/sites. Authors do it to get high ranking on Google.
You can use OnlyRecipe.app to extract the recipe information. It works on almost all sites/blogs which follow a recipe standard when they post.
You can also save it to your phone directly using the app. Scan recipe QR code using your phone camera and voila.

Currently working on a feature that lets you share recipe "image cards" with your friends.. Something like this https://i.redd.it/kk1goqsswo981.png
Let me know if you'd use that feature

#3I just happened to be looking into a shakshuka recipe and as per usual every website is 90% life story, background, history of the mesopotamia era...
This worked perfectly and will make shopping a bit easier. Example below.

This is my suggestion as well. I've used it for dozens of meals.

#6Feedback: visiting recipe pages, such as the one bearjaws shared, using Safari[0] can result in you being "trapped" -- the back button doesn't have the desired effect. It looks like onlyrecipe may be doing something to the web history.

I believe it's more likely that it's to do with whether you can or can't copyright a listing of ingredients and method.
If you add enough of a story, you definitely can.

#10Since OnlyRecipe.app is already parsing the recipe site, it would be a great feature to allow conversion to weights from volume (e.g. show 120g of flour vs. 1c of flour). Also, allow someone to double (or 1.5x...) the recipe as well, and have all measures double in the recipe!
