Ask Chef

Just ask Chef.

A cooking assistant that already knows your allergies, your goals, and what’s in your pantry, so its answers start from you.

  • “What can I make with what's in my fridge?”
  • “Swap the dairy in this curry.”
  • “Make this lighter, keep the protein.”
  • “Snap a photo, ask what to cook.”

FAQ

Good questions.

Is Aptiva free?

+

Yes. Aptiva is a free recipe app and meal planner for iPhone, with no ads. Get it on the App Store.

Can I trust Aptiva with a food allergy?

+

Aptiva checks every recipe against the allergens you declare and leaves out anything that conflicts, or that it cannot confirm is safe, before ranking. No filter is perfect, though: always read labels and check ingredients yourself.

Which allergies and diets does Aptiva support?

+

Aptiva checks every recipe against 9 major allergens: peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish, and sesame. It also supports vegetarian, vegan, halal-preferred, and kosher-preferred eating, plus gluten-free and no-beef options.

Can Aptiva tell me what to cook with what I have?

+

Yes. Add what is in your pantry and recipes that use it rise to the top. Adults can also ask Chef what to make from a photo of their fridge.

Does Aptiva plan meals and make a shopping list?

+

Yes. Meal Map plans your next two days of meals around your schedule and nutrition goals, then turns the plan into a shopping list.

What happens to my data?

+

We collect only what the app needs to work for you. We never sell your information, show ads, or track you across other apps. You can export your data or delete your account in the app at any time. Read the Privacy Policy.

What does the AI see?

+

Ask Chef and other AI features send your request to an AI provider to answer it. They are for people 18 and older. Recommendations themselves are calculated without AI, from your profile.

Is this medical or nutrition advice?

+

No. Aptiva gives general cooking and nutrition information. Talk to a doctor or dietitian about medical needs.
