A little help for your kitchen.
Saving Recipes
Which Recipes Can I Import?
Fennel can import written recipe content shared from TikTok, Instagram, and public recipe websites. Open the source’s share sheet and choose Fennel.
The source needs to include the recipe in its written content. Fennel does not transcribe video or audio.
Can I Bring Recipes From Another App?
Yes. Open Settings → Data and choose Import from Mela or Import from Paprika, then select an exported recipe archive from that app.
How Do I Export My Library?
Open Settings → Data → Export Recipe Library. Save the .fennelrecipes file somewhere you can find it again. To bring it into Fennel, choose Import Fennel Library in the same section.
The file includes recipes, categories, tags, and recipe images. Your meal plan, grocery list, and app preferences are not included. Imported recipes join your existing library.
Planning and Cooking
Where Do I Plan My Meals?
Open Plan to add recipes to your week. You can adjust servings for a planned meal without changing the saved recipe.
Can I Make a Grocery List From My Recipes?
Yes. Add ingredients from recipes or planned meals to Groceries. You can also add items yourself. Fennel groups the list by aisle and combines compatible quantities.
Do My Recipes Sync Between Devices?
This version keeps your library on your iPhone and does not sync to iCloud. Use a recipe-library export to transfer your recipes. See Privacy for more about local storage and exports.
