Why Look for a Recipe Keeper Alternative?
Recipe Keeper is a popular choice for recipe management, but its free tier comes with limitations. To unlock all features like unlimited recipes and full cloud sync, you need the premium version. For home cooks who just want a reliable, full-featured recipe manager, these costs can feel unnecessary.
Recipe Notes offers a genuine free alternative with no artificial limits. Store unlimited recipes, sync across all your devices, and import from anywhere - including Instagram and TikTok - without paying a cent.

"I have been looking for an app like this that lets me import recipes from a browser, hard copy recipe cards, etc. Other apps I checked out cost $ but I functionality I didn't care about. Now that I've used this I would pay for it."
