About Cobble

Cobble is an iPhone app that turns the food a person already has into meal ideas. The camera scans ingredients from a fridge, pantry or groceries, cleans up product names into usable ingredients, and ingredients can also be added by hand.

From that list, AI generates recipe ideas that may include meals to make now, simple variations, cooking steps, timings, nutrition estimates and generated images. A Surprise Me option suggests dishes from current ingredients, and the app also tracks food, plans the week, builds grocery lists and offers guided cooking steps.

Cobble is a proprietary mobile app published by Astri Devs Ltd. It is free to download with in-app purchases, and it suits home cooks who want recipes that fit what is already in their kitchen.
