Mi Recipe

'Mi Recipe' lets you record your own Recipes using your device's camera and microphone. Take photos of each step of the recipe and record a corresponding explanation.

When you come to use the Recipe again, tap on the Recipe (from the List of Recipes). The first step (usually a list of ingredients) is shown. Tap anywhere on the screen and your verbal explanation of the Step is played back. Tap the screen again to pause the explanation or tap the restart button to restart the explanation.

Scroll forward and back through the Steps of the Recipe by swiping the screen left and right.

You can set up as many Recipes as you require and there is no limit to the number of Steps.

Record all the Steps of your recipe with this App and when you want to use the Recipe again, tap on the Recipe name. The photo of the first step is shown. Tap anywhere on the screen to hear the explanation of the Step. Tap the screen again to pause the explanation, tap again to the restart. Scroll forward and back through the Steps by swiping the screen.

To set up a Recipe, go through the cooking process for the recipe. For each step, create a name (eg. Bake in Oven'). Next, use the 'Photo' button to create a photo. Finally record an explanation for that step using the 'Record' and 'Stop' buttons and then save the Step. Repeat this for each Step in the Recipe and now your recipe is available for any future reference.

Usually the first Step is a list of ingredients. You can take a photo of a hand-written list, a photo of the ingredients section from a recipe book or alternatively use a screenshot from a word processor (eg.Word) or spreadsheet (eg.Excel).

Whenever you come to cook that recipe again, use the photos and explanations to run you through the process.

Since you may have messy or sticky hands when cooking, being able to use your elbow, little finger, whatever to scroll from step to step and to play / pause / restart each explanation is a major advantage. Also seeing the process and how the mix of ingredients should look, adds to that level of confidence that things are coming together well.
