Share a recipe from TikTok, YouTube or Chrome, nothing to copy

This is the gesture that changes everything on Android. You watch a recipe video, tap Share, pick Olivi: the app opens on the import screen with the link already in place and Olive gets to work. She reads the caption, watches the video if the recipe is not written out, then hands you a clean recipe card in your language, with the photo, the creator’s name and the original link.

The same button works from Chrome on a recipe page, from YouTube and from a TikTok photo post. On the website you had to copy the link and paste it; here there is nothing left to copy. The help article on importing a TikTok or YouTube video walks through it screen by screen.

Shopping mode, offline and full screen

Store signal is often poor. The app’s shopping mode loads your list before you walk in, shows it full screen by aisle, and lets you check items with one thumb; checked items drop off the top and the remaining total stays visible. When the connection comes back, everything syncs with whoever shares the list with you.

The aisles are the same as on the website, including the custom aisles you created yourself (“Canned goods”, “Asian grocery”), in the same order.

Scan a paper recipe with the camera

A notebook page, a magazine recipe, a handwritten card: photograph it in the app and Olive turns it into a structured recipe, ingredients and steps separated, quantities recognized. Family recipes make it into Olivi without retyping.

Olive builds the week, the list writes itself

Olive is Olivi’s virtual cooking coach. On Android as on the web, she builds your weekly menu from your tastes, your constraints (diets, allergies, cooking time) and what you have left, then the grocery list is generated from the menu, sorted by aisle, with exact quantities. You can chat with her to swap a dinner, remove an ingredient, or ask for a recipe with what is in the fridge.

Nutrition facts for each recipe are calculated from Health Canada data; Olive gives cooking and planning ideas, she is not a dietitian and does not replace professional advice.

What early users changed

The app went through an open testing phase before this launch, and several fixes come straight from that feedback: the weekly plan no longer shows last week’s meals when you open it; custom aisles arrived because “Other” was overflowing; recipe photos now zoom; the app rotates and adapts to tablets and large screens; and the recipe counter on the free plan tells you clearly where you stand.

What about iPhone?

The iPhone and iPad app exists too, with the same account. For now it installs through TestFlight, Apple’s install tool, while its App Store listing is pending; the Download page has both links and remains the entry point for every platform.

Install Olivi on Android

Open the Olivi listing on Google Play, tap Install, then sign in with your Olivi account (or create it in the app: email, Google or Apple). If you were already using the website, your menu, recipes and list are there on first launch.
