Why we developed The Yummy Cook?
As iPhone developers we enjoy our iPhones and we're constantly looking for ways for the iPhone to improve our lives. Before The Yummy Cook, we kept our laptops beside us in the kitchen to look at recipes from our favorite food websites. We wanted to use our iPhones, but the laptop was easier. Why? Because our computer wouldn't shut off and we could save our favorite recipes on our personal webpage. With these things in mind, we set out on a mission to replace our laptops with our iPhones in the kitchen. We reasoned that if these issues were addressed, surely, the iPhone should be easier to cook with than our computers! So we spent weeks pulling together the necessary pieces. We knew the app should keep the iPhone screen on and not shut off so we disabled the autoshutoff (we were frustrated at how the iPhone's screen would shut off when we had safari on a recipe for more than a few minutes). And we added the ability to save our favorite recipe bookmarks inside the app and categorize them according to Main Dishes, Sides, Appetizers, Desserts. We could have stopped there, but we wanted our app to be even more useful and helpful. So we added multiple timers that we could run simultaneously. Then, we added a super-simple grocery list organizer to quickly jot down items we might need for our recipes. In it, we made it so that you can group items into categories at a touch of a button to make shopping a breeze. It's fast, useful and simple. Finally, we added a grocery market locator to pull up nearby markets for quick shopping. The result? We've created an app that brings the iPhone into our kitchen! It's finally easier for us to use our iPhones now while cooking than our notebooks computers. And now as iPhone developers, we're sharing the joy with you. We hope you enjoy The Yummy Cook, and make many yummy meals with it's help. :)
