How do I save a recipe from TikTok?

Open the recipe video in TikTok, tap share and choose YoHugo from the list. Hugo saves the recipe to your collection as a recipe card with ingredients and steps.

Does YoHugo save the recipe or just the link?

YoHugo saves the full recipe, not just the link. Each card has the ingredients, the method and the creator it came from.

Is it free to save recipes from TikTok?

Importing recipes is part of YoHugo Pro, which costs £2.99 a month or £24.99 a year. YoHugo is free to download, and your saved recipes, the Ideas page and shopping lists are always free.

Does YoHugo credit the TikTok creator?

Yes. YoHugo credits the original recipe creator on the recipe card.

How many TikTok recipes can I save?

You can import up to 50 recipes a month under the fair use rules in our terms. Cooking your saved recipes, the Ideas page and shopping lists do not count towards that limit.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. YoHugo is available on iPhone from the App Store and on Android from Google Play.

Save Recipes From TikTok as Recipe Cards

The problem

A saved TikTok is not a recipe

TikTok is brilliant for finding things to cook and not much use when you are actually cooking. The recipe is buried in a video, so you end up pausing, rewinding and scrolling with flour on your hands, if you can find the video again at all.

YoHugo turns that video into something you can cook from: a clean recipe card with an ingredients list and a step-by-step method.

How it works

How to save a recipe from TikTok

You do not need to copy anything out by hand. Importing uses the normal share button.

What you get

What a saved TikTok recipe looks like

Every import lands with its ingredients and steps laid out clearly, along with servings and the creator it came from. YoHugo credits the original recipe creator on every card, so you can always find your way back to them.

When it is time to cook, cook mode shows the method one step at a time with the ingredients that step needs, which is a lot easier to follow than a video.

Then what?

From saved recipe to shopping list

Saving the recipe is only half the job. Add the ingredients to your shopping list in one tap, or slot the recipe into your week with the meal planner and shopping list.

YoHugo also estimates what the recipe costs at Aldi, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's. See how on the supermarket price comparison page.

Beyond TikTok

Not just TikTok

The same share button works for YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest and recipe websites, and you can photograph cookbook pages too. If most of your recipes live in another app, see our guide to saving recipes from Instagram.

And if you would rather browse than import, the Ideas page has thousands of trending recipes from TikTok, Instagram and YouTube that are already saved and free to cook from.

Pricing
