CLUSTER MOBILE-RECIPES-COOKBOOK · 45 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-10-30

Recipe saving and organization apps

This cluster is made up of mobile, cross-platform, and web apps that save recipes from URLs, social media, photos, or scans and turn them into searchable personal cookbooks, often with sync, offline access, and cooking aids. The dated entries before the index start are sparse and intermittent from 2013 through 2024, then slightly denser in 2025 and early 2026, with several months recording two new members. The traction leaders by activity signal are Dishly Save & Cook Recipes, Thyme - Recipe Keeper, and Sesame: Recipe Keeper & Saver, each at 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
