Cooking UntamedHelp.
Quick answers to what comes up most.
Common questions
Will I need to make an account?
No. There is none. The app does not have a sign-in, a profile, or a server. Open it and cook.
Voice control is not responding.
Tap the microphone toggle in the top right of Cook Mode. The first time, iOS will ask for microphone and speech permission. If you denied it, open Settings, find Cooking Untamed, and enable Microphone and Speech Recognition. Voice control runs on-device, so your audio never leaves your phone.
Timers are not showing on my Lock Screen.
Live Activities require Lock Screen and Banners to be enabled in Notifications. Open Settings, then Notifications, then Cooking Untamed, and turn on Live Activities.
My timers are not showing on the watch.
Open the iPhone app at least once to wake the connection between the two devices. Running cook timers then appear on the watch automatically, count down on their own, and tap your wrist when they finish.
Can I add my own recipe?
Yes — three ways. Photograph a recipe card or cookbook page, paste a link, or type it in. Every import is parsed on your device into the same clean format as the bundled recipes, with the same timers, the same Cook Mode, and a review screen before anything is saved.
Will my notes sync between my iPhone and iPad?
Not yet. v1 stores notes, favorites, and cook history on each device locally. iCloud sync is on the roadmap.
How do I reset everything?
Delete the app and reinstall it. Because nothing is in the cloud, the reinstall is a clean state.
Refunds
The app is free, so there is nothing to refund. App Store purchases unrelated to this app are handled by Apple.
