Tap the + button on the Meals tab to add a new meal. You can give it a name, add ingredients, set a default serving size, and attach a photo.
Plan your meals for the week on the Planner tab and Mealwise automatically builds your shopping list from the ingredients. Items are grouped by aisle to make your shop faster.
Shopping Mode gives you a clean, full-screen view of your list while you're in the supermarket. Tap an item to check it off as you go.
Your data is stored on your device, so it's worth making a backup now and then. Go to Settings and tap Back up my data. Mealwise saves your meals, photos, meal plans, shopping list, cupboard and settings into a single file, then lets you choose where to keep it. Choose Save to Files to keep it in iCloud Drive or on your iPhone, or email it to yourself. Backups are never sent to us. Without a backup, deleting the app deletes your data.
Install Mealwise on the new phone (or open it on your current one), go to Settings and tap Restore from a backup, then choose your backup file, for example from iCloud Drive in the Files app. Restoring replaces everything currently in Mealwise with the contents of the backup, and the app restarts when it's done.
When planning a meal, you can adjust the number of servings and Mealwise will scale the ingredient quantities on your shopping list automatically.
