Why a recipe app doesn't need ads

Ads don’t belong in the kitchen

Most recipe sites and apps show ads, videos, and pop-ups every time you look up a recipe. Scrolling past ads with wet hands while cooking is frustrating and unnecessary.

PrivCook shows no ads at all. Open a recipe and you’ll see ingredients and steps immediately. It sounds simple, but that simplicity makes a real difference when you’re cooking.

The link between ads and privacy

Showing targeted ads requires collecting user behavior data — which recipes you view, when you open the app, what ingredients you search for. PrivCook doesn’t collect any of that.

Your recipe data stays on your device and is never sent to a server. Your recipe book is yours alone.

How PrivCook sustains itself

Without ads, how does it work? PrivCook offers a one-time Pro purchase. No monthly subscription — buy once, use forever. Simple and transparent.

The free version gives you up to 30 recipes with all core features. Start free, and upgrade to Pro if you’d like more.
