Tap anything. I'll turn it into a recipe.
CookZone handles it all.
Social media, food blogs or cookbooks: share the post or link, or take a photo of the page, and a moment later it's a neatly formatted recipe.
Pick one and watch.
YouTube, TikTok, PDFs and magazine pages work too.
Hands full? Cook mode has your back.
No more flipping between the ingredients tab and step four with sticky fingers. Each step shows up with its own amounts and its own timer, right where you’re looking.
Tick a step. Or start a timer.
- Ingredients right in the step
- Screen stays awake
- Timers built in

Hi, I'm Florian.
CookZone comes from Hemhofen, a village in Bavaria, and it started as the app I wanted for myself: one place for the recipes I kept losing in screenshots, chats and saved reels, and for the ones that only existed on paper, in cookbooks and magazines.
Your recipes are read by Mistral, a European AI, and stored on servers in Frankfurt. Your data isn't for sale. If something doesn't work or you have an idea, write to me. I read every message.
