Recipes that write your grocery list
Keep each recipe with its ingredients, steps, timings and photos. When you decide to cook it, Stilos turns the ingredients into a grocery list, already sorted by aisle.
Watch it happen
From ingredients to a sorted list
This is the idea in a few seconds: the ingredients of one recipe become a grocery list, grouped by store aisle.
A new grocery list made from the recipe: only its 7 ingredients, sorted into 7 aisles.

A recipe page laid out for cooking
A recipe in Stilos is a note with a shape. The details sit at the top, the ingredients are a checklist, and the method is a numbered list you can follow with a spoon in one hand.
A recipe on a computer. The Make Grocery List button sits at the top right.
The recipe page
What a recipe holds
- The details. Preparation time, cooking time, number of servings, and where the recipe came from, such as a website or a book.
- Photos. Add up to eight photos to a recipe, so you remember what the finished dish should look like.
- Ingredients you can tick. Each ingredient has a box. Tick them as you gather them on the counter.
- Steps in order. The method is a numbered list, and you can add headings, notes and tips around it like in any other note.
Recipes are gathered in their own Recipes view, and search looks through titles, ingredients, steps and details. Type "lemon" and every recipe that uses one turns up. You can also file recipes in folders and mark the ones you cook most as favorites.
Like everything else in Stilos, recipes are stored on your own device. There is no account, and the collection is not shared with anyone. See how Stilos keeps notes private.
How it works
From recipe to grocery list
- Open the recipe. Check the ingredients are listed under the Ingredients heading. That list is what Stilos reads.
- Press Make Grocery List. A small window shows how many ingredients were found and the first few of them.
- Choose where they go. Create a new grocery list named after the recipe, or add the ingredients to a list you already have. Adding to an existing list skips anything already on it.
- Press Make list. The grocery list opens with the ingredients grouped by store aisle, ready for the store.
Seven ingredients found, with a choice of a new list or an existing one.
One list for the whole week
The second choice in that window is the useful one when you plan several meals. Start a grocery list for the week, then open each recipe in turn and add its ingredients to the same list. Anything already on the list is skipped, so three recipes that all need olive oil leave you with one line for olive oil, not three.
The list that comes out is an ordinary grocery list. Add the things no recipe mentions, such as milk or dish soap, and press Organize again to file them in the right aisle. Amounts stay on each line as you wrote them: "400 g spaghetti" is still "400 g spaghetti" on the list.
Two limits to know
Stilos does not fetch recipes from websites. You type a recipe or paste its text, and the source field records where it came from. It also does not add amounts together: if you add the same recipe to a list twice, the second pass is skipped, not doubled.
Good to know
Questions about this
Can Stilos turn a recipe into a grocery list?
Yes. Open a recipe and press Make Grocery List. Stilos reads the ingredients, then either creates a new grocery list or adds them to one you already have. The list comes out grouped by store aisle.
Can I import a recipe from a website?
No. Stilos does not connect to websites, so you type the recipe or paste its text into a recipe note. The source field is there to record the website or book it came from.
Can I add photos to a recipe?
Yes. A recipe can hold up to eight photos. They are stored on your device with the recipe and are included when you save a backup.
Will it combine ingredients from several recipes?
It adds them to the same list and skips anything that is already there, so nothing is listed twice. It does not add amounts together, so check the quantities when two recipes share an ingredient.
