YoHugo

Made for UK home cooks

The recipe app made for the UK

YoHugo keeps every recipe you love in one place, then helps you shop for it. Save recipes from social media, websites and cookbooks, build a shopping list and see estimated prices at Aldi, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's.

What it is

One recipe app for everything you want to cook

Most of us keep recipes in too many places: a saved folder on TikTok, a screenshot album, a browser full of tabs and a shelf of cookbooks. YoHugo is a recipe app for iPhone and Android that brings them together as clean, ready-to-cook recipe cards.

Each card has the ingredients, the method and the creator it came from. When you are ready to cook, cook mode shows one step at a time alongside the ingredients that step needs.

Save from anywhere

Import recipes from social media, websites and cookbooks

YoHugo imports recipes from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest and any recipe website. Tap share on the post, video or page, choose YoHugo from the list, and Hugo saves the full recipe rather than just the link.

It works for paper too. Take a photo of a page in your favourite cookbook and Hugo saves it as a recipe card. There is more detail in our guides to saving recipes from TikTok and saving recipes from Instagram.

Priced for UK supermarkets

See what a recipe costs before you shop

This is the part that makes YoHugo a UK recipe app rather than a general one. Recipes are price checked against Aldi, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's, so you can see an estimated cost for the ingredients and compare what your shopping list comes to at each supermarket.

Read more about how it works on our supermarket price comparison page.

Plan and shop

A weekly meal planner and a shopping list that builds itself

Add the ingredients from any recipe to your shopping list in one tap, or plan a full week in the meal planner and add every meal to your list in one go. The list is sorted by aisle so the shop itself is quicker.

See the meal planner and shopping list page for the details.

Not sure what to cook?

Trending recipes and Ask Hugo

The Ideas page is a collection of thousands of trending recipes that have already been imported, ready to save and cook. It is free to browse, with no subscription needed.

If you have something specific in mind, you can ask Hugo for any recipe, ingredient or cuisine and he will write a recipe for you.
