Mealime closed on October 21, 2026
Looking for a Mealime alternative?
Culiplan does what you used Mealime for: plan the week's dinners and turn them into a shopping list. It is free for everyone, and you can bring your Mealime favourites with you.
What happened
Mealime was discontinued on October 21, 2026. Its team now points users to Meals Hub inside the Albertsons Companies grocery apps, which serve US stores.
Who this affects
If you don't shop at an Albertsons Companies store, or you live outside the US, Meals Hub is not a replacement. Mealime also never offered a way to export your plans or shopping lists.
Bring your Mealime favourites
- Open a recipe you liked on mealime.com and copy its link.
- Create a free Culiplan account. When we ask where your recipes are now, choose "Recipe websites I've saved".
- Paste up to 10 links at once. Culiplan reads the ingredients, steps and photo for each recipe.
- Add more later from Recipes, then Import, one link at a time.
Mealime's recipe pages are still online, and Culiplan's link import reads them.
What Culiplan does
Plan the week
Fill your week with your own recipes, or let Culiplan suggest dinners for the empty days.
One shopping list
Turn the week into a shopping list that skips what is already in your pantry.
Share it at home
Everyone in your household sees the same plan and list on their own phone.
Free, every feature
No paywall, no card and no ads. On iOS, Android and the web, in 13 languages.
What we can't do
We can't import your Mealime meal plans or grocery history, because Mealime never offered an export. Your favourite recipes come over one link at a time, or ten at once when you sign up.
