Paprika details are taken from its own website, help pages and app store listings, checked on 12 November 2026. "Not listed" means we did not find the feature in those sources, not that we have confirmed it is missing. Apps change, so check with Paprika for the latest.

Where Paprika might suit you better

No app is right for everyone. Paprika may be the better choice if:

  • You want your recipes on a computer as well as your phone. Paprika has apps for Mac and Windows, and for iPad. YoHugo is on iPhone and Android.
  • You want a free app with no time limit. Paprika's free version lets you save up to 50 recipes on a single device.
  • You like to plan further ahead. Paprika's meal planner has day, week and month views, while YoHugo plans a week at a time.
  • You want to keep track of what is in your cupboards. Paprika has a pantry feature for this.

Where YoHugo is different

  • UK supermarket price comparison: YoHugo estimates the cost of your recipes and shopping list at Aldi, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's.
  • Import from social media by tapping share, including TikTok and Instagram, with the original creator credited on the recipe card.
  • A weekly meal planner and shopping list that work together.
  • Ask Hugo for any recipe, ingredient or cuisine and he will write a recipe for you.
  • The Ideas page: thousands of trending recipes, already imported and free to cook from.

What YoHugo costs

YoHugo is free to download. Your saved recipes, the Ideas page and shopping lists are always free. YoHugo Pro costs £2.99 a month or £24.99 a year. See the pricing page for details.
