Family Asked to End Recipe Screenshot Campaign
The group chat is now understood to contain eleven photographs of the same tray of flapjacks.
What RecipeJam does about it
Recipes arrive in RecipeJam from wherever they already are — a screenshot, a photograph of a card, a link, a pasted message — and come out the other side as a recipe you can read, search and cook from.
RecipeJam, in use
A recording of this, in the real application

Screenshots are fine. Finding them is not.
There is nothing wrong with a photograph of a recipe. The problem is looking for it in eight months, in a chat, on a phone you no longer own.
Imported, then yours to fix
RecipeJam does the tedious part and hands you a draft. What it read is always editable, and the words you typed are kept exactly as typed.
