A Paprika alternative that brings your recipes with you
Paprika is a much-loved recipe manager, and we mean that. If you want a recipe app that also saves Instagram and TikTok recipes, shares a live grocery list with your household and runs in any browser, Table imports your Paprika export directly, categories included.

How to move from Paprika to Table
- Export from Paprika. In Paprika, select the recipes you want (or all of them), choose Export and pick Paprika Recipe Format. Save the file.
- Import into Table. In Table, go to Add recipe › From another app and choose the file. Your recipes, photos and Paprika categories (as tags) come across.
- Run it again any time. Importing the same file again only adds what's missing, so nothing is doubled.
The free plan holds 25 recipes; Table Premium removes the limit, so bigger collections come across in full.
When Paprika is still the better pick
If you want to pay once and never subscribe, or you rely on pantry tracking, Paprika remains a great choice. Table is the better fit when your recipes come from social media, you cook with a partner or family on different phones, or you want everything in a browser too.
Bring your Paprika recipes
Try Table free with your own recipes. Your Paprika library stays untouched.
