hmly: Pantry, Recipes & Chores

Recipes, built in. Build your cookbook or let on-device intelligence turn what's in your kitchen into a recipe, then plan, shop and cook it. All on device. 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 already 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, connected to the rest of your kitchen:

• Save your recipes: ingredients, step-by-step method, cook time, servings, and a photo. Browse and search them in the new Recipes tab.
• Generate with AI: tap Generate and on-device intelligence writes a complete recipe from what you already have, expiring food first. On device.
• Plan the week: add a saved recipe or build a meal from real inventory, 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 inventory automatically.
• Recipes and plans sync across your devices, shared with your household.
