    Question Android Recipe app

    EDIT - Started this thread in Android form, but as nobody answered, I thought I'd see if anyone here has an suggestions.

    Anyone know of a good recipe app that allows entry of your own recipes, ingredients, timings, etc, and then preferably will generate a shopping list to cook a meal, and then allow you to check off what you'already got, and print/view the remainder.

    Free would be nice, but if it'll get rid of ads, a reasonable cost is ok.

    To be clear, I' m not after something that comes pre-loaded with recipes, but which can be my own, personal, recipe book. A PC version and the ability to sync them would be delightful.

    Re: Android Recipe app

    I remember having an app that did most of that, cant remember the name though.

    A quick google search did turn up this though:

    Not sure how good the actual recipes part is but its worth a try.

    Looks interesting. Thanks.

    It does want full network access and the ability to create network sockets and use custom protocols., though. That makes me nervous. I need to look into that before installing. I'm already getting the distinct impression that's going to be an ongoing nightmare with Android.

    Thanks, shaithis, but I want it local on my device, not web-based.

    Re: Android Recipe app

    For anyone interested, I'm currently thinking MyCookbook (androidcookbook) is looking interesting.

    MyCookBook looks really nice. Dropbox syncing is always good.
    How does it export to dropbox? what filetype?

    I've no idea how it works with dropbox, because I don't use dropbox, or any other form of cloud storage, for that matter.
