Dinner, decided.

TimePeace keeps the food side of life calm: a week planned around your real days, recipes saved where you’ll find them, the freezer finally inventoried, and a shopping list that builds itself from what you plan to cook. Less deciding at six o’clock; more eating what you meant to.

The detail

What does meal planning look like?

A week of dinners on one card — pick from your own dishes and recipes, or ask for a plan that reads your real week: busy evenings go easy, the freezer and what needs using up come first, and you choose from three options. The groceries you need land on the Shopping list by themselves.

Does it know my recipes?

Yes — yours. Save the dishes you actually cook; TimePeace remembers what goes into them, what they cost and what the table thought. Cook mode keeps the screen awake and shows one step at a time, with a timer when a step says ‘simmer ten minutes’.

What’s in the freezer?

At last, an honest answer. Portions in and portions out, so the soup you froze in May gets eaten in June — and busy nights have a plan B already cooked.

What happens after dinner?

One tap: eaten, skipped or leftovers. The pantry updates, leftovers become a later meal, and next week starts from what really happened.

Can it cook for a whole household?

Yes. Add the people you feed — their food needs and allergens, who is away on which nights, whose plate is bigger — and the week plans for who is actually home. One meal can become two plates, with one Shopping list.

Can it help me host?

Pick an occasion — a Sunday roast, Christmas, Eid, Diwali or a braai — and TimePeace builds a timeline backwards from the time you sit down, notes each guest’s needs from People, and sets out the menu as a card.

Does it count calories?

Only if you ask. Food opens on plain words and plates, not numbers. Switch Numbers on and you get targets as ranges for energy, protein, carbs, fat and fibre — never in red, and for adults only.

Can it fuel my training?

Yes. Your training plan sets the day’s plate — easy, steady, big or race day — and each session gets a fuel card for before, during and after. A fuel check looks at a few signs across your week and, if something is worth raising, suggests a word with a doctor — never a number, never a diagnosis.

Can I bring my recipes from another app?

Yes. Recipes from Paprika, Plan to Eat or an AnyList backup, or a list of recipe links (handy now Mealime is closing), come in from Food’s settings. You see what was found before anything is added, and nothing you already have is added twice.

Fed, not optimised.

No calorie scolding, no diet agenda — TimePeace keeps what you cooked and who it fed.
