Recently shipped

October 2026

  • Olivi on Google Play, official release

    Mobile

    The Android app is available to everyone on Google Play, with the weekly plan, recipes, shared list, Olive and cooking mode, all synced with your web and iOS account.

  • Save a TikTok or YouTube recipe

    Web + Mobile

    Paste a video link, or tap “Share” then “Olivi”: Olive reads the caption and, if the recipe isn't there, watches the video. The recipe arrives in your language, with the photo, the creator and the original link. TikTok photo posts work too.

  • Your own aisles in the grocery list

    Web + Mobile

    Create an aisle (“Canned goods”, “Asian grocery”…) and file your items in it: it shows up in the list, in shopping mode and in the shared list. On the web now, in the app with the next update.

  • Zoom on recipe photos

    Mobile

    On a recipe, tap the photo, then pinch to zoom, double-tap to enlarge and drag to move around. Coming with the next app update.

  • Free plan: up to 50 recipes

    Web + Mobile

    After your 7-day trial, the free plan keeps up to 50 recipes (the 15 starter recipes don't count). Nothing is deleted above that: everything stays viewable and cookable, only adding waits for Essential, which has unlimited recipes.

September 2026

  • Share to Olivi from any app

    Mobile

    Olivi shows up in the iOS and Android share sheet: a shared video or recipe page imports itself, nothing to copy.

  • Pick the photo of a video recipe

    Web + Mobile

    Several frames from the video (or the YouTube thumbnails) are offered, and Olive preselects the one where the dish is done.

  • Imports keep going in the background

    Web + Mobile

    Video import, scanning and Olive's answers carry on when you switch screens; a banner lets you know as soon as it's ready.

  • Grocery list from the meals you pick

    Web + Mobile

    Tick the meals to include in the list and switch between weeks, up to four weeks ahead.

  • 15 recipes to get started

    Web + Mobile

    A new account comes with a pack of recipes in its language, to try the weekly plan and the list right away.

  • Free forever

    Web + Mobile

    Seven days of everything in Olivi, no card, then a free plan with no time limit: unlimited recipes and grocery list. Weekly planning is part of Essential.

  • Yeast and leavening scaled with common sense

    Web + Mobile

    When you increase the servings of a bread or cake, yeast, baking powder and strong flavourings no longer double blindly: they follow a gentle curve, the way a baker would. A note explains the adjustment and recalls the equivalents between fresh, active dry and instant yeast.

  • Olive removes one ingredient, and only that one

    Web + Mobile

    Ask Olive to remove an ingredient from a recipe: she removes exactly that one and leaves the rest untouched. A card shows you what will be removed before you accept.

  • Imported recipes keep their original language

    Web + Mobile

    A recipe imported from an English website stays in English until you turn on "Translate". Translation is a choice again, not an automatic step.

  • Recipe source shown on mobile too

    Mobile

    On iPhone and Android, the recipe page now shows where an imported recipe comes from, with a link to the original page, just like on the web.

August 2026

  • Olivi in six languages

    Web + Mobile

    French, English, Spanish, German, Italian and Dutch: the site, the app, the help centre and the emails, with recipes, units and products adapted to each country. Olive answers in your language.

July 2026

  • Android app on Google Play

    Mobile

    Olivi lands on Android: the full app (plan, recipes, list, Olive, cooking mode) on Google Play, synced with your web and iOS account.

  • Portions saved to your plan

    Web + Mobile

    Change the portions of a planned recipe: the choice is remembered, and the grocery list, cooking mode and batch sessions follow automatically.

  • Smart freezer

    Web + Mobile

    A ❄️ chip on your plan when you have frozen portions of a recipe, calendar scheduling, "eat soon" reminders and automatic exclusion from the grocery list.

  • Quantities right in the steps

    Web + Mobile

    No more flipping between Ingredients and Instructions: every step shows ingredient quantities, adjusted to your portions.

  • Polished batch sessions

    Web + Mobile

    A single combined prep list (fridge/pantry) addable to your list, timers always visible that survive leaving the page, duplicate-free saving.
