Adding recipes
How do I import my recipes from Apple Notes?
Answer
1. Apple Notes has no export, so copy the text out: open a recipe note, select all (Cmd/Ctrl+A) and copy.
2. Paste into a plain text file (TextEdit → Format → Make Plain Text, or Notepad) and save it as a .txt. Put several recipes in one file with a line of dashes (------) between them.
3. Give each recipe a title on the first line and the headings 'Ingredients' and 'Method' so we can split them correctly.
Then on RecipeFiler tap Import → Upload a file, drop the file as it is (up to 500MB, no unzipping), check the preview and tap Save. A zip full of .txt or .md notes (for example from a notes-export app) works too. Recipes with handwritten photos? Use Import → Screenshot instead.
