Write meals on iPad
Plan the days and meals you need. Handwrite titles, add ingredients, and save recipes you cook often to drop into this week — or any week with Pro.
On the App Store · Version 1.0
This week’s meals, then the grocery list. Write on iPad, browse on iPhone, and send shopping items to Reminders.
Free to download. Meal Buddy Pro from $3.99/month. Native for iPhone and iPad. Meals stay in your iCloud.
Why Meal Buddy
Meal Buddy Planner is an iPad notebook for the week’s meals. Use Apple Pencil on each card, add ingredients, then open the same week as a read-only menu on iPhone — plus a Home Screen widget for today.
No Meal Buddy account. Sign both devices into the same Apple Account and meals stay in your iCloud.
Plan the days and meals you need. Handwrite titles, add ingredients, and save recipes you cook often to drop into this week — or any week with Pro.
Browse the plan as a week menu. Add the Today’s meals widget to your Home Screen — it refreshes each day from what you wrote on iPad.
Pull ingredients into a shopping list, jot extras by hand, and send items to any Apple Reminders list you pick — including one named Meal Buddy.
