02 Frequently asked questions

My recipes aren't syncing across devices+

Make sure you're signed in with the same account on both devices, and that you have an internet connection. Open Settings → Account and pull down to force a manual sync. If it still doesn't sync after a minute, try signing out and back in.

How do I cancel or manage my subscription?+

Subscriptions are managed through the App Store, not inside Sous Chef. On your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions, select Sous Chef, and choose Cancel. Access continues until the end of the current billing period.

I made a purchase but it's not showing up+

Open the app and go to Settings → Restore Purchases. This re-syncs your App Store purchase with your account. If it's still missing after that, email us with the email address used for the purchase and we'll sort it out.

The app crashed or froze — what should I do?+

Force-close and reopen the app first. If it keeps happening, check Settings → General → About for updates, or update from the App Store. Still stuck? Email us with your device model and iOS version and describe what you were doing when it happened — that helps us fix it fast.

Can I use Sous Chef offline?+

Recipes you've already saved are available offline. Search, new suggestions, and syncing require an internet connection.

How do I delete my account and data?+

Go to Settings → Account → Delete Account inside the app. This permanently removes your saved recipes, lists and profile. You can also email us to request deletion — see our Privacy Policy for details.

I have a feature request+

We'd love to hear it. Email us a short description of what you're trying to do — real requests shape our roadmap more than anything else.

03 Still need help?
