How to save recipes from
TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
Saving a recipe video in the app where you found it takes one tap. Finding it again, and cooking from it, is the hard part. Here’s how to get recipes out of your feed and into one place you can actually cook from.
The problem with saved videosA saved video
A saved video
isn’t a recipe yet.
Saves get buried.
Each app keeps its own saved list, sorted by when you saved something, not by what you want to cook tonight.
Videos are fiddly to cook from.
Pausing and rewinding with messy hands is nobody’s favorite part of making dinner.
Step by stepFrom your feed
From your feed
to your recipe library.
You’ll need Cuisy on your phone and an internet connection for the import.
Install Cuisy
Get Cuisy free on Google Play. The iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store.
Copy the link to the video
Open the video, tap its Share button and choose Copy link.
- TikTok: tap Share on the video, then Copy link.
- Instagram: on the Reel or post, tap the share icon, then Copy link.
- YouTube: tap Share under the video or on the Short, then Copy link.
If Cuisy appears in your phone’s share menu, you can share the video to Cuisy directly instead.
Paste it into Cuisy
In Cuisy, tap the chef button in the middle of the tab bar and choose Video. Paste the link (if you just copied it, Cuisy can paste it for you) and tap Extract.
Review the recipe
Cuisy writes out the ingredients with amounts and the steps in order, using what’s said in the video, text on screen and the caption. Compare it with the video, because AI can misread a quantity or miss a step.
Cook from it
The recipe is saved to your library with a link back to the original video. Adjust servings, add missing ingredients to your shopping list and follow along in Cook Mode.

Tips
For better imports.
Pick videos that show the recipe.
Imports work best when the ingredients and steps are said aloud, shown on screen or listed in the caption.
Use the video’s own link.
Copy the link to the single video or post, not to a profile, playlist or search page.
Keep an eye on your allowance.
Cuisy Free includes 3 video imports a month. Premium raises the allowance, and the current limits are shown in the app.
Saving recipe videos: questions.
Do I need a TikTok, Instagram or YouTube account?
Cuisy doesn’t ask you to sign in to TikTok, Instagram or YouTube. You only need the link to a public video.
Can I use Cuisy on iPhone?
Cuisy is available on Android through Google Play today. The iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store.
Can I open my saved recipes offline?
Yes. Saved recipes, your fridge and your shopping list work offline. Importing a new video needs an internet connection.
What does Premium add?
Premium adds a higher video import allowance, PDF cookbook imports with private AI search, AI recipe ideas, camera ingredient scans and cross-device sync. Plans and prices are shown in the app.
