The Recipe App That Talks to Siri

A recipe library you have to open, unlock, and search is a recipe library you'll stop using. On iPhone, Mium wires your recipes into the phone itself — Siri answers "what's for dinner?" from your meal plan, tonight's meal sits on your Home Screen, and your saved recipes show up in the phone's own search. Here's everything that works, hands-free or one glance down.

"Hey Siri, what's for dinner?"

Siri answers from your Mium meal plan — whatever you scheduled for today — without the app ever opening. Hands in the sink, phone across the room, still works. If nothing's planned, Siri says so, which is its own kind of dinner bell.

Find recipes by what's in the fridge

Ask Siri to find recipes in Mium and tell it an ingredient when it asks — "chicken" — and it lists the saved recipes in your library that use it. This searches what you've actually collected, not the open internet: the answer is always something you already chose to keep.

Plan and cook by voice

  • Add to the meal plan — schedule a saved recipe onto a day without opening the app. It lands on the same week board, identical to one you added by hand.
  • Start cooking — ask Siri to start cooking a recipe and Mium opens straight to it.
  • Import a link — hand Siri a recipe link and Mium runs its normal import and saves the result to your library.

Tonight's meal, on the Home Screen

The meal-plan widget shows what's planned for tonight and the next few days, pulled straight from your plan. It updates on its own — including flipping to the next day at midnight — so the answer to "what are we eating?" is a glance, not an app launch. Long-press the Mium icon and you also get quick actions: scan, what's for dinner, and import.

Your recipes in the phone's search

On recent iOS versions, saved recipes appear in Spotlight — pull down on the Home Screen, type "tikka," and your recipe is right there with your other results. It's your device's private index, not anything public: your library stays yours.

Platform honesty. These integrations are iPhone-specific because they're built on Apple's own hooks (App Intents, WidgetKit, Spotlight). Android and web users get the full Mium app — scanning, every import source, meal planning, the grocery list, the AI Chef — just without the Siri and Home Screen extras. And none of it costs anything: voice and widgets are part of the app, not a paid tier.

Frequently asked questions

Can I ask Siri what's for dinner?

Yes. With Mium installed on an iPhone, ask Siri what's for dinner and it answers from your Mium meal plan — the recipe you scheduled for today — without opening the app.

Can Siri find recipes by ingredient?

Yes. Ask Siri to find recipes in Mium, tell it the ingredient when it asks — chicken, say — and it lists the recipes in your library that use it. It searches only your own saved recipes, not the whole internet.

Is there a widget that shows tonight's meal?

Yes. Mium's Home Screen widget shows what you've planned for tonight and the next few days, straight from your meal plan. It updates on its own — including flipping to the next day at midnight.

Do my recipes show up in iPhone search (Spotlight)?

On recent iOS versions, yes — pull down on the Home Screen, type a recipe's name, and your saved recipe appears with your other on-device results. Your library stays private; indexing happens for your device's search only.

Does this work on Android or the web?

The Siri, widget, and Spotlight extras are iPhone features. Android and the web get the full Mium app — scanning, imports, meal planning, the grocery list, and the AI Chef — just without the Apple-specific integrations.

About Mium. Mium is an independent app built by a small team that ships fast and listens to its customers. We've got more in the works — and we keep this page honest by only describing what's actually in the app today (July 2026), never what's "coming soon."
