Questions about this tool.
Does Reel Meals work with every YouTube video?+
Supported public cooking videos work best. If a video does not expose enough recipe information, you can paste recipe text or upload screenshots instead.
Can I save the extracted recipe?+
Yes. You can use the recipe in a plan immediately and sign in if you want saved recipes to sync across devices.
Can I combine YouTube recipes with Instagram or TikTok recipes?+
Yes. Reel Meals is designed to combine recipes from several sources in the same weekly plan.
