Kitchen Stories is a mobile cooking app that launched in early 2014 and is available for free on iPad and iPhone. The app emphasizes professionally produced content—high-quality photos and videos—offering recipe videos, step-by-step photo instructions, how-to guides, and features such as a shopping list creator, timer, and measurement converter. It is localized in 12 languages and has garnered over 3 million downloads. New recipes are added weekly across categories like "Below 400 Calories", "<20 Minutes", and "Vegan". Founders Mengting Gao and Verena Hubertz say the company aims to create the most user-friendly cooking app and reduce "kitchen anxiety" for cooks of all skill levels. The company plans to launch a community called "The Kitchen Stories Family," allowing users to submit recipes that the team will select and re-shoot in-house.
