Never write a
shopping list again.

Put the week's meals on the days. Farro adds up what they need, scales it to how many are eating, and sorts it by aisle — so the shop is written before you pick up your keys.

Farro's weekly planner: Monday sheet-pan chicken thighs, Tuesday turkey chili, Wednesday marked as today

Sunday, and you answer the same question seven times.

Then you write the list twice — once in your head at the counter, once badly on the back of an envelope. On Thursday you buy coriander you already had, and the chicken you actually needed is still at the shop.

Deciding was never the hard part. Turning it into a list was.

You put down this

Six dinners you chose.

Two recipes wanting an onion become one line that says two. Amounts add up, everything scales to the people at your table, and the aisles come in the order you actually walk them.

Three screens. That is the app.

Plan

Your week,
on one screen.

Once a week and it's done. Wednesday turned into a takeaway? Drag the meal to Thursday and the shopping list moves with it. The week that worked last month is one tap from being next week's.

  • Move a meal and the list follows it
  • Copy any week you liked onto a new one
  • Hide the meal slots you never plan

Shop

Walk out with
everything.

No second trip, no forgotten onion, no list in three places. Grouped by aisle, scaled to how many are eating, and big enough to read at arm's length with one wet hand.

  • Add the bin bags that belong to no recipe
  • Metric or imperial, whichever you shop in
  • Send the list to whoever is going instead

Paste a link,
keep the recipe.

The one you screenshotted, the one in the group chat, the one on a site with nine ads and a life story. Paste the link and it lands as ingredients you can plan with.

Three things it will
never do to you.

Never

Decide your dinner

No generated menus, no diet quiz, nothing putting aubergine on a Tuesday you had already made up your mind about. You cook what you want to cook. Farro just remembers it and does the arithmetic.

Never

Guess an amount

If it cannot read "a good glug of oil", that line reaches your list exactly as it was written. A number that was invented sends you back to the shop, and finding out at the till is worse than reading it yourself.

Never

Nag you

No streaks to break, no badges, no notification asking why you haven't planned this week. Open it on Sunday, or don't. It will be exactly where you left it.

Kitchen notes

Weeks of dinners built to share a shopping list, and how to plan seven days so they survive a real Wednesday.

Buttermilk Pancakes, and the Batter Stays Lumpy

The batter is folded about ten times and left visibly lumpy. Beaten smooth it builds gluten, and gluten is what turns a pancake from something that tears under a fork into something that bounces off it.Serves 4 · 11 ingredients Choosing an app

Questions worth asking

Does Farro decide what I eat?

No. There is no menu generator, no diet quiz and no AI suggesting recipes. You choose the meals; Farro remembers them and does the arithmetic. It is a tool, not a consultant.

Can I import a recipe from a website?

Yes — one recipe at a time. Paste a link and Farro reads the recipe data the page already publishes: the title, the servings and every ingredient line. You see exactly what it read and correct it before saving. If a page publishes none, Farro says so and opens the paste box rather than guessing. Cooking steps stay on the page they came from.

Do I need an account?

No — no sign-up, no login, no server. Everything lives on your phone, which is why it opens instantly and works with no connection. It also means there is no automatic cloud backup: when you change phone, you export to a file and import it on the new one.

Does it work offline?

Yes: planning, the list, your recipes and the export all work with no connection. The one thing that needs the network is importing a recipe from a link, which has to fetch the page.

Which phones does it run on?

iPhone on iOS 15.0 or later, and Android. Farro speaks English and Spanish, and switches between metric and imperial on the shopping list.

Plan it Sunday.
Cook it all week.

Ten minutes on a Sunday, and you walk into the shop with the whole week already written.
