Guide · Saving recipes
Turn a TikTok into a recipe you can keep.
Open TikTok’s share menu, tap More, and use Save to Foodie. You can leave while the recipe is prepared.
Start in TikTok’s sharing panel, then open the iPhone share menu. These steps take you through both menus to save the video as a recipe in Foodie.
