Categories and favourites
Create your own categories with an icon and colour, assign them to recipes and mark favourites.
Categories are entirely yours — there are no built-in ones. You can create the first ones when you first open the app, in the First categories step.
A new category
- On the phone: More → Categories, then Add category.
- In the browser: Settings → Categories, then Add category.
Enter a Category name, pick an Icon and a Color, then save. The category colour shows next to recipes in the list.
You can also add a category right from the recipe form: in the Categories field choose New and type a name.
Assigning to a recipe
In the recipe form, in the Info part, pick one or more categories in the Categories field. On the recipe list, categories work as a filter.
Changing and deleting
Tap a category in the list to change its name, icon or colour. To delete:
- on the phone, swipe the category to the left,
- in the browser, use the Delete button next to the category.
Deleting a category doesn’t delete any recipes.
Favourites
Mark a recipe as a favourite with the heart in the recipe’s header (Add to favourites). Tap it again to remove the mark.
Favourites show on Home in the Favourites section. On the recipe list, under Filters and sorting, choose Favourites first to keep them at the top.
