Umami has Chrome/Firefox extensions that you can use while on desktop, which will sync your recipes to the app. Disclaimer: I built it :)

1. Import from other recipe apps.
Recipe apps and sites have a finite lifetime. Its great that you already support export, but import from others would be great. Pepperplate for example is sqlite on android. Other apps might be harder, eg the New York Times recipe box. But without import, its hard to commit to a new system.
2. Cooking mode
This is a mode that avoids that situation where you are following a recipe and need to manipulate your phone but you cant because you have hands covered in flour/chicken juice or whatever. Voice control would be awesome too: "scroll down", "set a timer for 20"
3. Notes Some place where you can comment on the recipe, like "use peanut oil not canola"
Thank you
> 1. Import from other recipe apps.
Definitely agree. A couple days ago, someone asked for a Paprika recipe importer, which I've added here: https://www.umami.recipes/paprika-import I'll have to take a look at Pepperplate and NYT recipe box (though, you can already import any NYT recipe link!).
> Voice control
Love this idea.
> 3. Notes
There is indeed a notes section! Though I'm guessing you mean inline comments, like google docs style?
On 3, notes can either be for personal use (eg in Cozi's recipe handler) or a shared conversation in a recipe (like what the NYT does). I feel the former is more important, but your users might have different opinions.
But yes, you are right, as far as native apps go. FWIW, I just got an Android test phone so I can start on that version, should be ready in a few months.
^ Colors in that space only just recently started getting supported by displays/browsers. And while p3 colors work in css on Safari, I had to use a single-pixel background png to make it work in Chrome.
