Recipe Helper is a simple concept. Create your own recipe or shopping list. You can use it yourself or send it to a friend or family member. Rather than use a centralized server, Recipe Helper uses whatever communications you have available on your phone. At its most basic, it can use text messages or email.
Recipe Helper offers fairly robust data features, should you choose to use them. For example, you can create a store entry, then assign an aisle to an ingredient for that store. The next time you go to that store, you can sort your shopping list by aisle.
