Recipe Exploration and Personalization
Samsung Food’s wide range of features supports users every step of the way during the meal planning and cooking process, spanning four key areas: recipe discovery and personalization, tailored meal planning, connected cooking, and social sharing functions.
For recipe discovery, the platform allows users to save recipes to their personal digital recipe box anytime and from anywhere. The app analyzes recipes, standardizes their format, and organizes them to create shopping lists based on their ingredients.
In addition to mobile devices, users can also access the Samsung Food service with their Bespoke Family Hub refrigerators. Opened from the Family Hub touchscreen, Samsung Food provides recipe recommendations based on a list of available food items managed by the user.
Samsung Food also brings a Personalize Recipe function, enabling the app’s Food AI to directly change a saved recipe to better reflect users’ dietary requirements. Users will also be able to create fusion recipes, such as Korean versions of Italian dishes, and adjust cook time.
AI-Enhanced Meal Planning
To create individualized daily meal plans for users, the app makes AI-created recommendations based on user data, dietary preferences and favorite cuisine types and lets users add them to their meal planner.
Nutritional breakdowns of ingredients are available at any time, and users can add items to their Samsung Food shopping list then send it straight to a retailer’s e-commerce checkout.
Connectivity and Social Sharing
With connected cooking, seamless Samsung Food connectivity lets users set timers, preheat ovens and send recipes’ cook settings straight to appliances through step-by-step guided cooking modes, all from their portable devices.
Starting with the Bespoke Oven, Samsung plans to connect numerous appliances including Bespoke induction ranges and microwaves to Samsung Food by the end of the year to expand convenience for users in the kitchen.
It’s easy for users to get social with Samsung Food by sharing their favorite dishes with the community, creating and publishing their own recipes and following their favorite food content creators.

Upcoming Features for Samsung Food
By the end of the year, Samsung plans to offer Samsung Health integration with Samsung Food so that users will be able to receive suggestions for diet management.
The seamless syncing of information such as BMI, body composition and calorie consumption with Samsung Food will help users to hit health goals and maintain a balanced diet.
Planned for implementation in 2024: Vision AI technology will enable Samsung Food to recognize food items and meals photographed through the camera and provide details about them, including nutrition information.
By analyzing food items, the app can recommend the best recipes to use them with, save these recipes to the user’s collection and add the required ingredients to a shopping list, all in a few taps.
As a part of Samsung’s ever-growing family of services, Samsung Food represents the next step in the comprehensive yet highly bespoke experience Samsung customers can enjoy in their own home.
Samsung Food strives to further extend the ease that is possible with a smart, connected kitchen of Samsung home appliances and will continue to be updated with new features following its official launch.
