How to save a recipe from YouTube

Fastest: use Share

You don't have to copy the link. Share the video or post straight to Zastillia: the app opens by itself and starts reading the recipe. It works on both iPhone and Android.

1. 1

   Tap Share

   Under the video, tap the Share button with the arrow. In Shorts it sits to the right of the video.

   

2. 2

   Open the system menu

   Scroll the row of apps all the way to the right and tap the button with three dots.

   

3. 3

   Pick Zastillia

   In the share menu, tap the Zastillia icon. The app opens and starts the import right away, with nothing to paste.

   

   

Or copy the link

1. 1

   Copy the link

   Under the video, tap Share and choose Copy link. The same goes for Shorts.

2. 2

   Open Add recipe

   In Zastillia, on the Recipes tab, tap ＋ and choose By link.

   

3. 3

   Paste the link

   The copied link usually fills in by itself. If not, tap Paste from clipboard, then Recognize recipe.

   

4. 4

   Give it a moment

   AI reads the video's title and description and writes the recipe. You can close the screen.

   

5. 5

   Check the recipe

   Compare the ingredients with the video and fix any amounts if needed.

   

What you get

• ingredients with amounts and the steps in order;
• calories, protein, fat and carbs per serving;
• rescaling to the number of servings you need;
• a link back to the original video.

Good to know

• A channel link won't work: you need a link to a specific video, Short or post.
• Private and members-only videos are not available.
