COOKING MODE, FOR WHEN YOUR HANDS ARE BUSY
Every step fills the screen in large, easy-to-read text. Any step that mentions a time gets a timer, ready with one tap. Turn on Auto to move through the steps at your own pace, and the screen stays on until you finish. Stopped halfway? Chef Rona remembers your step, so you pick up exactly where you left off.

SEARCH BY DISH OR BY INGREDIENT
Type a recipe name, or search by what is already in your fridge and see what you can make. Arabic search ignores diacritics and common spelling variations.

FROM EVERYDAY MEALS TO FEASTS
Main dishes, popular Egyptian classics, meat, chicken and seafood, rice and pasta, salads, soups and sauces, cakes, layer cakes, cookies and desserts, baking and pastry, sourdough, breakfast and Ramadan favorites. Kitchen Tips adds illustrated guides: cuts of meat, freezing vegetables, and a measurement guide.

SMOOTH, FAST AND MADE FOR EVERY SCREEN
Chef Rona is built to feel instant. Recipes open straight from your device instead of the network, so there are no loading screens between you and dinner. Photo-rich pages scroll smoothly, the app starts quickly, and the design adapts to iPhone and iPad, with a wider layout that uses the whole iPad screen.

WRITTEN FOR YOUR KITCHEN, NOT JUST TRANSLATED
The English recipes are adapted for English-speaking cooks: US cups and ounces alongside grams, oven temperatures in both °F and °C, and notes on ingredients that are hard to find outside Egypt.
