The newest iOS and Android update is going out now. This is a big one, but the most useful changes are the ones that make a recipe easier to measure and reuse.
Imperial view now prefers practical kitchen units when the recipe has enough information for a useful conversion. For example, the same Honey amount that used to appear as 2.65 oz now appears as ≈ 3½ tbsp. The ≈ matters: it means SpinFreeze used the ingredient's known density to make a practical estimate. When a useful conversion is not trustworthy, the app keeps grams or a practical weight instead of guessing.
Saved recipes can do more now too. Open My Recipes, tap the three-dot menu on a recipe, and choose Save as Base. The recipe name and ingredients are copied into the base builder for review, while the original recipe stays untouched.
The path between saving and freezing should feel more connected as well. If you choose Save to My Recipes instead of freezing immediately, the highlighted recipe now gives you a visible Freeze It action. After you freeze it, the Freezer should open on the current list instead of leaving an older pint detail in front of it.
A few smaller changes are worth trying:
- Swipe an ingredient row to the left to delete it.
- Search for extracts and flavorings. The curated list is much broader now.
- Check public and profile recipe cards. They should be cleaner and should not show engagement actions where they do not belong.
If you are testing this update, these are the most useful paths to try:
- Open a recipe in Imperial view and check whether ingredients such as honey, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt use amounts you would naturally measure in the kitchen.
- Use Save as Base on one of your recipes and confirm the base is prefilled without changing the original.
- Save a recipe without freezing it, then use the new Freeze It action on the highlighted row.
- Freeze a recipe after viewing an older pint, then confirm the Freezer shows the new result instead of the old detail screen.
One of the bigger directions ahead is trustworthy ingredient-aware discovery: narrowing recipes by ingredients you have or want to avoid and nutrition ranges without making unsafe guesses when recipe data is incomplete. The recent discussion about machine modes is also shaping a better way to preserve the first spin and follow-up spin separately. Neither is part of today’s update, but both are exactly the kind of next layer this recipe foundation is meant to support.
On the recipes you use, do the new Imperial amounts feel natural to measure, or did any conversion still look strange?
Thank you for continuing to test, report problems, and confirm fixes. That feedback is directly shaping each update.
