How to Use Dinner Spinner for iOS


The app launches to a Wheel of Fortune-type spinner that must be spinned to activate. Taking this action causes three categories to randomize, resulting in a unique combination of preparation time, ingredients, and dish type, as well as a handful of recipes meeting each criteria.

Each recipe can be sorted by rating, title, popularity and relevance, and include a photo of a particular dish, as well as the username of the author.


Selecting a recipe form the list will show the full details of that recipe, in addition to other details relating to the recipe such as user reviews and nutritional value, from those who have already tested it.


Dinner Spinner also includes a built-in shopping list which can be added while the user is browsing each recipe type. Every ingredient on the list is divided into categories such as Meat, Fish, Seafood, or Milk, Eggs and Dairy for ease of use.


Before an item can be added to the shopping list, you have to create an account by entering a username, your email, and a password. Once you become a member of AllRecipes.com, you will be able to review and rate any recipes you have cooked, upload an image of that dish, access the shopping list and do much more.


Dinner Spinner carters to all dietary requirements and also lets you search recipes based on filters such as lactose intolerant, vegan, etc. You can scan a product barcode to search for recipes including specific ingredients, and also view scanned history.


Also, you can bookmark each recipe for future use by tapping Add to Favorites. This keeps track of the many recipes you have selected to try next time; they are categorized alphabetically for ease of use.


The latest version of the app lets you add photos, pins, texts, etc. about your new cooking victories and share them on social media. More than 1,000 videos of recipes are also available with step-by-step instructions.
