> ClipCook is a personal cookbook. It does not operate a ClipCook account or a server that stores your recipes.

Last updated: 19 September 2026.

## What is stored

Recipes, photos and cookbooks live on the device. On iPhone and iPad they sync with iCloud on your Apple ID. On Android they stay on the phone. Reinstalling the app or switching iPhones with the same account brings them back.

## How a video is imported

When you share a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link, ClipCook does not download the video. It reads the public title, creator and description when those exist. The cookbook keeps a link to the original so you can watch it again.

## AI extraction

- On iOS 27, Apple Intelligence processes recipe text on the device.
- If you connect another provider, the recipe text is sent with the key you paste in Settings. That key stays on the phone (on iPhone, in the Keychain). ClipCook never receives it.
- The provider may charge you according to their own pricing.

## What ClipCook does not do

- It does not create a ClipCook account.
- It does not sell data.
- It does not use third-party analytics in the app to profile you.
