Meet Pestle for iOS 26 – reimagined for Liquid Glass and Apple Intelligence. What's new: – Every screen in Pestle has been upgraded to complement Liquid Glass, with recipe images blending beautifully into the ingredients. – Pestle can now leverage on-device Apple Intelligence to parse recipes from more websites than ever. – You can now add sections for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner to the Meal Planner - and you can even add your own custom sections. – Timers in Pestle now behave like system timers, to ensure even if your device is muted or has Do Not Disturb enabled, you won't overcook your pasta! – Search is now a dedicated page, with quick access to recently added recipes, folders, and any categories from across your entire cookbook. You can access search by tapping the icon in the tab bar, or by pulling down in your cookbook. – Pestle's recipe editor has gotten an upgrade too, with a new button to add ingredient sections! – It's now easier than ever to sort your recipes and change your layout, with a new dedicated button in the top right of the Cookbook. – Recipes from social media without clear names will now use Apple Intelligence to generate one. - Timers will now name themselves using Apple Intelligence. And that's not all! A lot of bugs have been squashed also: – Fixed a crash that could occur in the Meal Planner. – Sort now works in folders. – Categories and cuisines were difficult to remove. – Some TikTok's couldn't be imported. – Grams and Kilograms will have more sensible rounding behaviour.

Changed in 3.0.2: – Fixed bookmarks not being tappable on iPhone. – Fixed the highlighter not working when a recipe failed to import. – Added an indicator for pull to search – You can now long-press recipe titles, descriptions and notes to copy them. – Fixed shortcuts not returning ingredients or instructions for recipes. – Fixed “1 2/3” being parsed as “1 3/4”. – Fixed searching for recipes with hyphenated titled being difficult. – Recently added recipes wouldn’t be sorted correctly. Changed in 3.0.3: – You can now copy recipes and notes in your Meal Plan to other days. – Shortcuts can now insert recipes into specific sections in your Meal Plan. – Fixed a crash that could occur after editing a recipe. – Fixed “Meal Plan” showing twice at the top of the page. – Fixed a case when printed recipes could have no image. – Recipe images are now higher quality. – Collapsed sections in the Folder screen will no longer expand when something changes.,
