Serving Sizer Pro for iPad- recipe converter cookbook

April 12, 2010


I’m a fan of the Serving Sizer apps, first the regular recipe converter and then the newer converter and cookbook version. Now the developers have taken the app and done it up for the iPad. The same great features are still there but they take excellent advantage of the larger screen. In this version when you add ingredients to your recipe a box for that pops up on the screen so you don’t have to navigate to a new screen and back. You can easily search for an ingredient or scroll through the list they’ve provided. Tap on the one you want then use a simple slider to adjust the measurement, tap the plus sign and it’s added to your recipe. (Note: you’ll have to tap the plus sign on the recipe screen, not in the ingredient box. It took me a couple tries to realize this.) You can literally add ingredients without having to type anything.  It was easy to put together recipes in the iPhone version but I really like the way the iPad handles this feature.  The finished recipes look fantastic when they take up the entire screen. Plus, it’s still as easy as before to convert the recipe for a smaller or larger group. A fantastic app!

Update 4/14 – Apparently the developers already have an update underway that deals with my little quibble about adding ingredients and the plus sign. They’ve also included someother tweaks. Looking forward to the update!

Individual Text Tones for Contacts

My 9 year old daughter told me about an iOS 5 feature that I was totally unaware of until last week. Miss S. showed me how to set up individual text tones for my contacts.

What I Do

I review iPhone apps for moms. I have a decent grasp of techy things but the technical guts (for lack of a better word) of how the apps work are beyond me. So my reviews will be practical and purely subjective. Reviews for moms by a real life, actual mom. My kids will vouch for me.
