# Read and cook recipes ad-free — mangia

> No banners, no ads, no newsletter pop-up. Save recipes in mangia and read them clean — when cooking, only step-by-step, no distractions.

## Read recipes without scrolling through ads.

In mangia your recipes land clean: only ingredients, steps, image. No banner, no pop-up, no newsletter — just what matters.

## Cleaner recipe stream — even while cooking.

You import a recipe from the web, the cookbook or a note. In mangia you only see what matters: title, image, ingredients, steps. While cooking, mangia walks you step by step — ingredients for the current phase up top, tools next to them, a swipe for the next step.

## Features

### No ads — ever
mangia is funded by optional Plus features. Advertising is not a business model.

### Your data, just for you
No ad tracking, no advertising pixels. What you cook and plan, we only use for your recommendations — not for advertising.

### Step-by-step, no swiping away
While cooking you only see the current step. Screen stays on, hands stay clean.

## Frequently asked

**Will it stay ad-free as the app grows?**

Yes. mangia earns from optional Plus features (balance, browse, per-kid taste profile) — advertising is ruled out as a business model.

**Does ad-free also mean tracker-free?**

For advertising purposes: yes. We use no ad networks, no advertising pixels, no cross-site tracking. For product improvement we use PostHog — a GDPR-compliant analytics tool. PostHog tells us which features work well, not what you want to buy. You'll see a cookie notice on your first visit.

**How do recipes get into the app without ads?**

Drop in a photo, PDF or link — mangia only extracts the recipe data. Banners, pop-ups and anecdotes stay outside.

**What if I need a recipe page with a long backstory?**

You can add notes to any recipe — long stories live there, the recipe itself stays clean.

**Is the cooking mode also ad-free?**

Yes. While cooking, mangia shows only the current step with ingredients and tools — no pop-ups, no banners, no swiping away.
