Frequently Asked Questions

How do I import a recipe?

To import a recipe:

  1. Tap the + button on the home screen
  2. Select "Import from URL"
  3. Paste the recipe URL (from TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, or any food blog)
  4. Tap "Import" and our AI will extract the recipe automatically

What sources can I import recipes from?

Mangia can import recipes from virtually any source:

  • TikTok videos
  • YouTube videos
  • Instagram posts and reels
  • Food blogs (AllRecipes, Serious Eats, Bon Appetit, etc.)
  • Pinterest pins
  • Any webpage with recipe content

How does pantry tracking work?

Your pantry is your inventory of ingredients at home. You can:

  • Manually add items with quantities and expiration dates
  • Scan grocery receipts (Premium) to bulk-add items
  • Get alerts when items are expiring soon
  • See which recipes you can make with what you have

When you generate a grocery list, Mangia automatically deducts items you already have in your pantry.

What's the difference between Free and Premium?

Free tier includes:

  • Up to 10 saved recipes
  • Basic pantry tracking
  • Grocery list generation
  • Cooking mode

Premium ($4.99/month) adds:

  • Unlimited recipes
  • AI receipt scanning
  • Voice control in cooking mode
  • Weekly meal planning
  • Priority support

  1. Open the Settings app
