hmly: Pantry, Recipes & Chores

Your cookbook and your pantry, one app. Set a recipe to any number of servings and every amount scales. On-device intelligence writes recipes from what you have. Free.

Everything your household runs on, in one private app. Track what's in your pantry, fridge, and cupboards. Save your recipes and let on-device intelligence write new ones from what you have. Plan the week, assign chores that actually get done, and build shopping lists from what's running low.

Share it all with your family in real time, synced across iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac. No account. No servers. No tracking. Free for personal use.

RECIPES AND MEAL PLANNING

A full cookbook, wired into the rest of your kitchen:

• Save it all: ingredients, method steps, cook time, servings, nutrition, source, photo, and sections for long recipes.
• Browse a photo-forward grid. Rate, tag, filter, and sort your collection.
• Bring your own: import a whole folder of Markdown recipes in one go.
• Tap an ingredient inside any step to see its amount.
• Generate with AI: on-device intelligence writes a complete recipe from what you already have, expiring food first.
• Plan by week or month: add a saved recipe or build a meal from your Pantry, each ingredient flagged in stock, expiring, or still to buy.
• One tap to shop: send the missing ingredients to your shopping list.
• Cook and it counts: marking a meal cooked draws the ingredients from your Pantry automatically.
• Eat the way you eat: turn on Plant-Based Only and meal suggestions leave out meat, fish, dairy, and eggs.

MULTIPLE HOUSEHOLDS

Can't agree on who does what? Settle it with a coin flip, rock-paper-scissors, or spin the wheel.
