# Weekly meal planner with shopping list — mangia

> Plan your week in two minutes — the shopping list writes itself. Duplicates merged, categories sorted. Ad-free, no subscription.

## Plan the week. The list writes itself.

You drop meals into the plan — mangia turns them into your shopping list, sorted and deduplicated.

## Tap the meal, the day is set.

Mon–Sun × lunch/dinner in one table. Pick from your recipes or write freely. When the plan is done, one tap turns it into a shopping list — portions scaled for your family, duplicates added up, categories sorted.

## Features

### Two minutes per week
Seven days, two meals — done. No more Sunday-evening brainstorming.

### Portions auto-scaled
Two adults plus one kid? mangia calculates portions per meal.

### On every device
Plan on the laptop, list on the phone in the store — same state, no clicks.

## Frequently asked

**How long does it take to plan a week?**

If your recipes are already in: two or three minutes. Tap a recipe per slot or just write "leftovers from yesterday".

**Can I move or copy meals?**

Yes. Long-press a meal to drop it on another day or schedule it multiple times.

**Does the plan work offline?**

Yes. Plan and shopping list work offline. As soon as you're back online, it all syncs.

**Is the shopping list really generated automatically?**

Yes. Tap "Create list" — mangia takes all ingredients from the planned recipes, adds duplicates and sorts by category.

**Can I plan together with my family?**

Yes. Multiple family members see the same plan and same list — changes show up in real time on every device.

**What if I don't want to cook every day?**

Leave slots empty or write "eating out". mangia doesn't expect full weeks — the plan only shows what you actually plan.

## Goes well with

- **[Shopping list](/einkaufsliste)** — What happens when you tap "Create list".
- **[Recommended order](/empfohlene-sortierung)** — From your plan mangia learns what fits this week — and sorts your recipes accordingly.
