Madmakker – meal plan & shop

NIXIO

About this app

Madmakker plans your week's food and builds the shopping list for you – so you stop making the same decisions over and over.

The app is built for ADHD brains. That means fewer choices at a time, no wagging fingers, and a way back when the week slipped anyway.

A WEEK WITHOUT DECISION FATIGUE
• A whole week of lunches and dinners, from your budget and your household
• Leftovers are planned in, so you are not cooking every single day
• Keep the days you like, and have the rest swapped out
• Not keen on today's dish? Swap it with one tap – or switch to the easiest version there is, when the energy is gone

A SHOPPING LIST THAT MATCHES YOUR SHOP
• The items are gathered from the week's dishes automatically
• Sort the categories so the list follows your route through the shop
• Tap an item and see exactly which dishes it is for
• Mark what you already have at home, so it does not count towards the budget
• Add your own items – they stay put, even when the plan changes

WHEN YOU CANNOT FACE IT
"Not today" gives you one suggestion. Not a list, not a menu – one answer, based on what you already have in the cupboard.

SHARE IT WITH THE PERSON YOU LIVE WITH
Share the meal plan and shopping list with your partner or roommate through a short code. You see the same week and the same ticks on your own phones. No accounts, no passwords.

REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY ARRIVE
Get a nudge in the morning if dinner needs taking out of the freezer, and a small one when it is time to get going. You set the times.

PRICES YOU CAN RELY ON
The budget is built on price estimates adjusted by Statistics Denmark's consumer price index for food – so the numbers do not fall behind over time.

POINTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS (IF YOU WANT THEM)
Earn points, unlock 96 achievements and spend your points on colours and themes in a small shop. Points cannot be bought for money. The whole layer can be turned off in settings – and then nothing is recorded in the background either.

BUILT TO BE PLEASANT TO USE
• 212 recipes – everyday food, not project food
• No account, no purchases and no ads – the app is completely free
• Works without internet – everything is on your phone
• Dark theme, and an option to reduce motion
• Danish, English and German – with Danish ingredients and supermarket categories in all three, because you shop in a Danish shop

What’s new

Fixes for the English and German versions: ingredient names and weekdays appeared in Danish or with the wrong capitalisation in a few places. Ingredients you want to avoid can now be written and read in your own language.

The weekly shopping streak was reset if you changed the app's language. That no longer happens. On phones that use digits other than 0-9, the reminder time could fall back to the default, and that is fixed too.
