# Chefless

> Chefless is a free social recipe and meal planning app for iOS and Android. Families, couples, and housemates keep their recipes in a private recipe book, share them in private groups called Kitchens, plan the week together on a drag-and-drop meal schedule, and generate grocery lists automatically. There are no ads and no algorithmic feed; recipes are private by default and users choose exactly what to share and with whom.

Key facts:

- Platforms: iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). Free to download.
- App Store: https://apps.apple.com/ae/app/chefless/id6760949571
- Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sahabsolutions.chefless
- Pricing: the core app (recipe book, Kitchens, meal planning, grocery lists) is free forever. An optional subscription unlocks power features such as AI recipe import, unlimited Kitchens, and year-in-review exports.
- Kitchens: private shared groups (household, family, friends) with role-based permissions, invite codes, a shared weekly meal schedule, shared recipes, and a shared grocery list. Every change syncs to every member, including offline edits.
- Recipe book: recipes are owned by the user and private by default. Sharing is opt-in per recipe. Recipes can be scaled to any serving count and tagged by cuisine and diet.
- Meal planning: drag-and-drop weekly schedule; any member of a Kitchen can see and edit the shared week; grocery lists are generated from the plan automatically.
- Social layer: instead of an algorithmic feed, members log "I cooked it" with a rating and optional photo, visible only to their Kitchen. Remix trees show how a recipe evolved as people adapted it.
- Culinary Passport: every recipe is tagged to one of 77 regional cuisines across 7 world regions; cooking a recipe earns a stamp, and regional badges track progress around the world.
- Wrapped: a yearly recap of dinners cooked, cuisines explored, and stamps earned.
- Dietary tags: recipes carry tags such as Low FODMAP, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, vegan, nut-free, keto, and paleo, and can be filtered by tag. Chefless is not a medical or nutrition service.
- Offline: recipes, schedules, and grocery lists work offline and sync on reconnect.
- Privacy: no ads, no data selling. Two-layer privacy model (account-level public/private plus per-recipe shared/private).
