The 7 best recipe apps
Tastemade
O Tastemade é conhecido pelos vídeos curtos de culinária que viralizam nas redes. No aplicativo, o formato é de streaming: programas de cozinha, séries gastronômicas e documentários sobre comida e viagem, com passo a passo mostrado na tela.
Aqui vale a parte que quase ninguém conta: o download é gratuito, mas só os quatro canais de streaming ao vivo são abertos, no estilo da TV. O catálogo sob demanda — justamente os programas e documentários que você escolhe quando quer — fica na assinatura Tastemade+, vendida dentro do aplicativo. A nota na Google Play também é modesta, 3,1 de 5, com boa parte das reclamações batendo nesse ponto.
Ou seja: serve bem para quem quer deixar rodando e se inspirar, como um canal de culinária ligado ao fundo. Para buscar uma receita específica na hora de cozinhar, os aplicativos seguintes da lista resolvem melhor. Disponível apenas para Android no Brasil — a Tastemade não publica o aplicativo na App Store brasileira.
Everything Delicious
This is the largest collection of recipes in Portuguese. It contains tens of thousands of dishes submitted and rated by the community itself, organized by category: desserts, rice, stews, soups, meats and salads, as well as special selections for Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter and June festivals.
The strong point is the comments: you can see who has already tried it, what went wrong, and which substitutions work. Free, with ads, for Android and iPhone.
Cookpad
Cookpad focuses on real homemade recipes, the kind someone's grandmother used to make. Its search function is what sets it apart: you type in the ingredients you already have at home, and the app tells you what you can make with them.
It also allows you to save favorites, create your own recipe book, and publish your recipes. Free for Android and iPhone, with an optional subscription for extra search features.
That Recipe
Brazilian app with a wide variety of recipes and simple navigation. It offers everyday recipes, quick options for the week, desserts, and dishes for air fryers, which is currently one of the most popular searches in the kitchen.
Você pode filtrar por tipo de prato ou por tempo de preparo, o que ajuda muito em dia corrido. Gratuito para Android e iPhone, com anúncios e compras dentro do app.
Globo Recipes
This collection gathers recipes featured on Globo's cooking shows, with organized information on ingredients, preparation method, and yield. You can explore by chef, program, or type of dish.
One of the most useful features is the suggestion of new dishes, which helps when you're unsure what to make for lunch. And if you don't like the recipe, you can simply go back and choose another from the list. Free for Android and iPhone.

Tasty Recipes
Tasty is the app for those top-down videos where the entire recipe happens in one minute. It features thousands of recipes with step-by-step video instructions, filterable by ingredient, time, and occasion.
Ele também monta lista de compras a partir das receitas que você salvou e sugere planos de refeição para a semana. Vale um aviso honesto: é um app de culinária, não de acompanhamento nutricional — ele não substitui a orientação de um nutricionista. Gratuito para Android e iPhone, com compras dentro do app.

YouTube
In fact, the YouTube app is present on virtually all cell phones. In it, you can find a multitude of recipes and channels that allow you to find exactly the dish or dessert you want to make.
Here you're sure to find the recipe channel that best suits your taste, from everyday basics to the most elaborate confectionery. And since many channels publish the ingredient list in the description, you can check everything before going to the market.
How to choose the right recipe app for you
- Do you prefer reading or watching? Those who prefer text-based content will find TudoGostoso, Cookpad, and Receitas Globo more appealing. Those who learn by watching will prefer Tastemade, Tasty, and YouTube.
- Can you cook with what you have at home? The Cookpad ingredient search solves it.
- Short on time? Look for filters by preparation time, available in most apps on the list.
- Bad internet in the kitchen? Save the recipes to your favorites before you start, or take a screenshot of the ingredient list.
