When to Upgrade

Consider upgrading if:

  • You’re hitting the 10 credit limit — heavy importers who save more than 10 recipes a month benefit from unlimited imports
  • You have more than 50 recipes — Premium removes the recipe storage cap
  • You want step-by-step cooking mode — large-text guided cooking with built-in timers
  • You want Smart Meal Planning — auto-fill a random week and copy a week forward
  • You want nutrition info — see calories, protein, carbs, and fat for every recipe
  • You cook in multiple languages — recipe translation lets you translate any recipe into your preferred language
  • You want to share recipes with other Cookonut users — direct user-to-user sharing is a Premium feature
