Recipe & ingredient management
Amiezenplas
Collect recipes, track ingredients, make shopping lists, and share with friends — all offline-first with optional encrypted peer-to-peer sync.
Recipe management
Create, edit, and organize recipes with titles, categories, tags, images, timing fields, and Markdown-formatted instructions. Per-step checkboxes let you track progress, and automatic countdown timers detect durations mentioned in steps.
Import recipes from plain text, RTF, ODT, DOCX, PDF, JSON, and QR codes. Export as backup ZIP, portable JSON, or ODT documents. Toggle between original recipe measurements and your preferred unit system.
Ingredient management
Track full ingredient records including name, unit, category, brand, manufacturer, country, store, package size, barcode, source URL, image, and notes. Stock tracking with quantity on hand and quick adjustment buttons helps you know what you have before you shop.
Ingredients are auto-categorized into grocery categories (Produce, Dairy, Meat, Pantry, etc.), and photos can be fetched automatically from OpenFoodFacts or Wikimedia Commons.
Shopping lists
Create multiple named shopping lists and generate them from selected recipes, factoring in stock on hand. Items are auto-grouped by grocery category with subcategories, and lists persist checked items, quantity overrides, and manually added items across sessions.
Search & organization
Powerful multi-word search. Sort recipes by name, category, tags, or missing ingredients. Collapsible category headings and long-press multi-select with drag and auto-scroll keep large collections manageable.
QR codes & barcode scanning
Share recipes and ingredients as QR codes, or scan product barcodes to look up ingredients locally or via OpenFoodFacts. Live camera scanning supports QR codes and 1D barcodes with tap-to-focus and auto-refocus.
Shared groups & sync
Create shared groups with auto-generated encryption keys and invite members via QR code or manual key entry. Share selected recipes and ingredients to groups — each device maintains its own copy and shares changes with the group.
Optional network transports include Reticulum LAN (peer-to-peer over local network), Freenet, and Hyphanet. Configurable host, port, and auto-sync intervals per transport.
Localization
Fully translated UI in English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. Language is detected automatically from device settings with manual override in Settings.
Settings & accessibility
Light or dark theme, adjustable text scale from 50% to 200%, and independent unit preferences for temperature, length, weight, liquid volume, and volume. Custom unit conversion rules, timer sound selection, and contextual help buttons throughout the app.

Privacy & data use
Amiezenplas is offline-first — all data is stored locally on your device with no cloud dependency. No account is required, and shared groups use local encryption keys rather than user accounts.
- Shared with third parties: No personal data. OpenFoodFacts and Wikimedia receive ingredient name and barcode queries only — no user identifier is sent.
- Shared with other users: Recipes and ingredients you explicitly share to a group are sent. Group details are based on device ID and optional nickname.
- Encrypted in transit: Yes — everything synced to a group is encrypted.
- Deletion: Yes — leaving a group removes the member record; deleting the app wipes all local data.
- Required for basic functionality: No — no network access is required at all. Sync, image search, and OpenFoodFacts are all opt-in.
Optional network transports are disabled by default and only activated if you choose to enable them. For full details, see the Privacy Policy.
