Scrollioli
Saved recipes into usable dinners
Screenshot recipe imports
Rescue recipe screenshots before they disappear into your camera roll.
Screenshots are one of the fastest ways to save a recipe and one of the easiest ways to lose it later. Scrollioli turns recipe screenshots into editable drafts so ingredients, steps, and context can move into your meal plan.
Does
Extracts visible recipe text, then gives you a repair board for OCR cleanup.
You get
An editable recipe draft that can be organized, planned, and shopped from later.
Before and after
The screenshot becomes a draft you can repair.
Screenshot proof should show cleanup work: clipped lines, OCR oddities, and the corrected recipe draft.

Step 01
Why screenshot recipes get lost
A screenshot proves you wanted the recipe, but it does not make it easier to cook from later. Important details get buried in camera-roll clutter, and it is hard to turn a static image into a useful weekly plan.
Scrollioli treats screenshots as a supported import path so you can bring those recipe saves into the same app as links, social posts, and your weekly plan.
Step 02
Check before saving
Screenshot imports can be messy. Quantities may be clipped, steps may wrap oddly, and ingredient formatting can vary a lot from one source to the next.
That is why Scrollioli keeps the result editable first. You can fix what matters before the recipe joins the library you rely on later.
Step 03
From screenshot to dinner plan
Once approved, screenshot recipes can be organized into collections, added to the weekly plan, and used for grocery generation just like any other saved recipe source.
The practical value is not OCR by itself. It is turning a quick save into something you can actually cook from later in the week.
How it works
A quick run, not a long read.
Upload
Add the recipe screenshot.
The static image becomes editable text instead of another camera-roll save.
Repair
Fix clipped or awkward lines.
Quantities, steps, serving notes, and OCR oddities are checked before saving.
Use
Move the cleaned draft forward.
The recipe can enter collections, meal plans, and grocery generation.

Is this only OCR?
No. OCR is just the starting point. The useful part is moving the result into an editable recipe workflow.
What if the screenshot is incomplete?
Keep the source context and edit the draft. If important quantities are clipped, review before adding the recipe to your library.
