An iOS app · Beta

Keep a larder. Keep a list. Cook from both.

Larder & List is a shared grocery list and recipe library for a household of two. Recipes come in from the web, your camera, or your own typing. Your list syncs between phones the moment either of you edits it.

What it remembers

№ 01

A shared list, without the drama

Two phones, one list. Changes show up on your partner's phone the moment you type them, over iCloud. No accounts, no invitations past the first one. If the store is out of cilantro, they'll know before you come home.

№ 02

Recipes you actually cook

Paste a link from a food blog, scan a page of your favorite cookbook, or type one in. The app pulls ingredients and steps, sorts them like a magazine recipe card, and lets you tap any ingredient onto the grocery list.

№ 03

Aisle-sorted, always

Items group by where they live in the store — Produce, Dairy, Meat, Pantry — so you walk the aisles once. Tell the app once where something belongs, and it remembers for next time.

How it works

Three short moves to get your household set up.

  1. 01

    Install on both phones.

    Sign in with your existing iCloud accounts — no new accounts, no passwords. The app uses Apple's CloudKit, so your list is covered by the same privacy terms as your Notes.

  2. 02

    Share your household.

    From Settings, tap Share Household. Send the invitation to your partner. Once they accept, your lists and recipes become one.

  3. 03

    Add recipes you already love.

    Paste a URL from your favorite food blog, or hold your phone over a page of your cookbook. The app reads the page and files it alongside everything else.

Questions

Is Larder & List free?
Yes, during beta. There are no ads, no analytics, and no subscription tier. A one-time purchase may arrive at 1.0 — we'll say clearly if it does.
Does it work if only one of us has it?
Of course. Household sharing is optional. You can use it as a solo grocery list and recipe library, and bring in a partner later.
What happens if I paste a recipe URL and it fails?
Older food blogs often don't embed the structured data modern recipe sites do. When that happens, the app offers to scan the page with your camera instead — the text lands on your phone the same way.
Where is my data stored?
In your iCloud private database. Your partner sees a shared copy through Apple's CloudKit sharing. Nobody else — including us — can read it.
Does it work on iPad or Mac?
It's an iOS app first. iPad works today in compatibility mode; a proper iPad layout and Mac Catalyst build are on the list for later.
