Built for real weeknights

Cook at home on the nights you usually give up.

Simmer Down keeps prep, steps, and timers in sight so dinner hits the table before the delivery apps even load.

Why home cooks stick with Simmer Down

It removes the friction between “we should cook” and a real meal—whether you're solo, sharing a kitchen, or drafting the kids for help.

See the next move at a glance

Big, always-on steps, ingredient cues, and timers stay in view so you keep cooking instead of poking at a locking phone.

Prep is staged before the pan gets hot

We line up every chop, bowl, and tray—grouping ingredients that cook together—so counters stay calm and cleanup shrinks.

Weeknight cooking feels calm and doable

Guided flow delivers each cue right on time, so you stay in the groove, helpers chime in smoothly, and real dinner replaces “let’s just order.”

Prep plan ready the moment you hit start

We translate every ingredient note and instruction into a simple run sheet. You stay ahead, the counter stays clear, and cleanup shrinks.

  • We parse the recipe and stage the exact prep moves before the stove ever turns on.
  • Ingredients that cook together land in the same bowl—fewer dishes, less guesswork.
  • You stay ahead of the recipe, so nothing surprises you mid-sauté and cleanup shrinks.

How Simmer Down guides you

Drop a recipe in, and the app stages prep, spotlights the current move, and keeps every timer and helper in sync. While other apps stop at a shopping list, Simmer Down stays with you at the stove.
