Share your favorite recipes with friends and family, or publish entire collections as beautiful cookbooks. Your data stays private by default — you choose what to share.
Creating a Public Share Link
- 1.Open the recipe you want to share
- 2.Tap the Share button
- 3.Choose “Create public link”
- 4.Copy the link (format:
honest.recipes/r/[slug]) and share it anywhere
The link is public and can be viewed by anyone, even without an Honest Recipes account.
Social Preview Cards
When you share a recipe link, social platforms (Twitter, Facebook, iMessage, etc.) automatically generate a rich preview card with:
- →Recipe title and description
- →Recipe photo (if you added one)
- →Cook time, servings, and other key details
Open Graph (OG) tags are auto-generated for each shared recipe, so links look great everywhere.
What Recipients See
When someone opens your shared recipe link, they'll see:
- →The full recipe: ingredients, instructions, photos, and notes
- →A clean, ad-free view (the Honest Recipes experience)
- →An “Import to my library” button if they have an account
- →A prompt to try Honest Recipes if they don't have an account yet
Collecting Feedback on Shared Recipes
Pro feature: Enable feedback to let viewers leave notes, tips, and variations on your shared recipes.
Enabling feedback when sharing:
- 1.Open the recipe and tap the Share button
- 2.Check “Allow feedback” before creating the link
- 3.Copy and share the link
How viewers leave feedback:
When someone visits your shared recipe, they'll see a “Notes” section at the bottom where they can:
- →Enter their name (optional, defaults to “Anonymous”)
- →Write a note or comment (up to 500 characters)
- →Submit their feedback publicly
Managing feedback:
- →View all feedback in the recipe's share settings
- →Delete individual notes if needed
- →Toggle feedback on/off anytime without breaking the share link
Privacy: Feedback is tied to a viewer hash, not personal information. No email addresses or tracking data are collected.
Publishing Recipe Collections as Cookbooks
Turn any collection into a shareable cookbook with its own public page:
- 1.Open a collection you want to publish
- 2.Tap the three-dot menu (⋮) and select “Publish as Cookbook”
- 3.Share the cookbook link (format:
honest.recipes/cookbook/[slug])
Perfect for sharing your “Holiday Desserts” collection with family or publishing a meal prep guide.
