What’s new

Ambre v2.1.0 is a minor update that adds Timers, Interactive Widgets, Hand-off Support & Desktop Widgets to Ambre for macOS.

Ambre v2.0.0 is an update to iOS, iPadOS, watchOS and tvOS. At the beginning of June we attended WWDC at Apple Park and have been developing for the new update since, trying to make the most of all the new APIs. This update adds these new features:

Timer detection
- Supports multiple languages, detected with on device intelligence
Interactive widgets
- Jump between instructions and start your timers with a single tap straight from the Dynamic Island, Live Activity and Widgets on both you Home and Lock Screen.
Cooking recipes
- Marks recipes as Cooking once interacted with. The progress syncs across devices and gets pinned to the top for easier access.
WatchOS 10 redesign
- The watchOS app has been completely redesigned to better utilize everything that the new WatchOS 10 design brings.
Handoff support
- Open the same recipe on your other device where handoff is supported.
Improved web/url import
- We were already proud of presenting one of the best, if not THE best, import functionality. Now it’s even better!
New Subscribe view
- To ensure an even smoother subscription flow we’re now using the brand new SubscriptionStoreView from Apple.

About the app

Ambre is a recipe app for the Apple Enthusiast that enjoys cooking. With the latest technologies provided by Apple, we take the cooking experience to the next level. Ambre is available on all Apple devices that can run 3rd party apps.

Your recipes and their progress are synced across all your devices using iCloud. Thanks to Core Data, all your recipes are available offline. Once a recipe is Cooking it can be interacted with using Siri, making sure you can follow the recipe even with sticky fingers. If you have a HomePod in your kitchen, you can ask Siri for instructions on what to do next.

Privacy is a core value at Ambi Studio, so none of our apps have any kind of tracking added. The only analytics we have access to is the ones that have been forwarded and anonymized by Apple.
