Cooking Mode is a quick and easy way to separate what you are currently cooking from any of the other activities you are doing in the app. This way, if you browse away from the recipe you are making and want to get back, you can just jump back into cooking mode.
Cooking mode has a much simpler view which concentrates on the recipe itself. You can also select ingredients as you add them so that you can keep track of your progress.
You must be signed in to use Cooking Mode.
To enter Cooking Mode, simply tap/click on the 'Make It' button on the recipe page:
Or, simply tap/click on the 'Start' button on the bottom of the recipe page:
In our mobile apps entering cooking mode prevents the screen from going to sleep, so be sure to exit when you're done in order to conserve battery life.
You can cancel cooking mode with the 'Stop cooking' button and when you're done with a recipe simply tap or click 'I'm Done'. You can back out of cooking mode at any time with the 'Back' button.
This will send you back to the app in its normal working mode while leaving what you are currently cooking/baking at the bottom of the screen so you can go back to it at anytime.
Exiting from cooking mode, with either 'Stop cooking' or 'I'm done' will return you to the app in its normal working mode and will remove the 'now cooking' window.
