Terms of use
The short version: your recipes are yours, creators keep their credit, and nothing charges you without you choosing it.
Last updated 29 July 2026
Using Zaika
You need an account to save recipes. You are responsible for what you import — import things you have a right to keep a copy of, the way you would clip a recipe into a notebook.
Do not use Zaika to republish someone else’s work as your own, to strip attribution, or to bulk-scrape a creator’s catalogue.
What is free, and what is not
Your cookbook, the weekly planner, grocery lists and cook mode are free, with no import required to use them.
Importing recipes is free up to 5 a week. Premium removes that limit and adds nutrition facts, unlimited translations, unlimited substitutions and PDF export. It costs $29.99 per year after a 7-day free trial.
Subscriptions are billed by the app store, renew automatically, and are cancelled from your store account’s subscription settings — not by deleting the app. Prices shown in the app come from the store and are localised to your region.
Reaching the free weekly limit never destroys work: the import waits in your tray until the week rolls over or you upgrade.
Creators
Every imported recipe keeps its creator’s name and a link to the original post, on the recipe, on shares, on exports and on copies other people save. We do not offer a way to remove attribution. Creators can claim their profile or ask us to remove their content — see the creators page.
What Zaika does not promise
Recipes are read by software, and software misreads things. Fields Zaika is unsure about are marked as estimated rather than presented as fact, but you should check a recipe before you cook it — particularly quantities, cooking times and anything involving an allergy.
Nutrition figures are estimates for guidance, not dietary or medical advice. Substitution suggestions are suggestions.
Ending it
You can delete your account at any time from Settings; see Privacy for what happens to your data. We may suspend accounts that abuse the service or the people on it.
