Notes:
(1) Recipe Search requires Internet access from your device. (That's so we don't have to install all 170,000+ recipes, plus their images on your device!) If you are not running at full 3G speeds, the recipe and food glossary article fetching speed will be limited by your connectivity. Like Safari, BigOven's article display speed is directly related to your current connection quality and speed, which varies over time and location. If the app appears slow, be sure you've got full 3G or wifi connectivity.
(2) This app is currently FREE. We reserve the right to do modest advertising, or instead perhaps charge a modest fee for the app at some point in the future to help offset considerable server hosting costs. But we wanted to get this out there and get some feedback on whether it's useful to you.
Happy cooking from your friends in Seattle!
Streamlined interface! Access the Leftover Wizard, Glossary, Favorites, Try Soons and more from the Home button.
A new Leftover Wizard lets you enter any three items in your fridge or pantry and discover what you can make. "What's for Dinner" view shows you what people are cooking around the world.
BigOven will now remember the recipe you were looking at if you interrupt the program.
We hope you enjoy this free app. Happy cooking from Seattle.
