Paprika 4 allows you to organize your recipes into multiple cookbooks. Each cookbook is a separate collection with its own recipes and categories. You might use one cookbook for everyday cooking, another for baking, and a third for recipes you're still planning to try.

Every account starts with a single cookbook named My Cookbook. If you never create another cookbook, Paprika works just like it always has. Your default cookbook cannot be deleted.

Switching Cookbooks

The name of the current cookbook is displayed at the top of the categories list. From the recipes screen, tap the category button in the toolbar to bring up the categories list, then tap the cookbook name in its toolbar to reveal the Cookbooks picker, which lists all of your cookbooks. Select the cookbook you would like to view. The recipes list and categories apply to the currently selected cookbook. A search starts there too, but you can widen it to other cookbooks.

Adding a Cookbook

To create a new cookbook, open the Cookbooks picker and press the button in its toolbar. Enter a name for your new cookbook and save.

Managing Cookbooks

The Cookbooks picker also lets you manage your cookbooks: use its sort option to change how the list is ordered, or tap and hold a cookbook (or press the button) to enter selection mode. In selection mode, press the button beside a cookbook to rename it, or select one or more cookbooks and press the button in the toolbar at the top to delete them. Paprika will ask you to confirm before deleting. Your default cookbook can be renamed but not deleted.

When you delete a cookbook, Paprika asks what to do with the recipes inside it:

• Move to Trash - Moves the recipes to the Trash, where you can restore them until the Trash is emptied.
• Keep Recipes - Moves the recipes into your default cookbook, keeping their categories.

Choose Cancel to keep the cookbook.

Moving Recipes between Cookbooks

To move recipes into a different cookbook, tap and hold a recipe in the recipes list to put the list into selection mode, select any additional recipes you would like to move, and then press the button in the floating toolbar and choose Change Cookbook. Select the destination cookbook. You can also change a recipe's cookbook with the Cookbook field when editing the recipe.

If the recipes' categories don't all exist in the destination cookbook yet, Paprika asks whether to copy them there. Choose Copy Categories to create the missing categories in the destination cookbook, or Don't Copy to move the recipes without them.

Sharing a Cookbook Premium

You can send a copy of an entire cookbook to another Paprika user. From the recipes screen, press the button in the floating toolbar and choose the action named after the current cookbook, such as Send "Desserts" to Paprika User…. You can also press the paper-plane Send button at the bottom of the Cookbooks picker. Enter the recipient's email address and send — the cookbook is delivered as an in-app message, and the recipient can import all of its recipes in one step. See Sending Recipes & Cookbooks for details.
