Family

Share your recipe book, menu, and shopping list.

Cooking and meal planning work best as a team effort. With Family Groups, one person creates a family and invites others to join. Once connected, everyone shares the same digital recipe book, weekly meal plan, and shopping list.

Whether you're splitting up cooking duties, planning together, or just staying on the same page, Family Groups make it easy to collaborate. Add or edit recipes, suggest meals for the week, or update the grocery list — changes are instantly reflected for everyone in your group.

Family Groups are ideal for households, roommates, or even long-distance relatives who like to cook together. It’s one shared kitchen, fully digital.
