Common questions
Is my information private? Yes. Everything you enter stays on your phone. The only things that go online are what's needed to link your phones and check your plan: anonymous IDs, the link, the invite code, your partner's first name on their join request (until you answer), and your plan status. See the Privacy Policy.
How do I get started? Open the app: the first screen is a welcome. Tap "I don't have a code" (or "I have a code" if you have an offer code), answer "Who's this for?" (Just me, or The two of us), choose your plan, then finish the short setup. Your partner taps "I'm the partner" on that first screen instead.
I have an offer code. Where do I enter it? On the first screen, tap "I have a code" and enter it in Apple's sheet. Already set up? Tap "Have a code?" on the plans screen or on your Me tab under Your plan.
How do I set up the app for my partner? Your partner installs Hot Flash Kitchen on their own iPhone and taps "I'm the partner" on the first screen. They enter their name and number, yours, and the invite code you texted them (it's also on your Me tab). Then you tap Yes to confirm it's them.
We chose the wrong side on this phone. On the Me tab, find "This phone" and tap Change. It's in the same place on both sides.
How do I cancel my subscription? On your iPhone, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose Hot Flash Kitchen. You keep access until the end of the period you've paid for. If you have the Partner plan, your partner's access ends then too.
Can I get a refund? Refunds are handled by Apple. To request one, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in with your Apple Account, and choose Hot Flash Kitchen.
I bought a plan but it isn't showing. Tap "Restore purchases" in the app, using the same Apple Account you bought it with.
How do subscriptions work? The partner plan (both phones) is $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year; Just me (one phone) is $6.99 a month or $69.99 a year. The app needs a plan: right after "Who's this for?" you choose one, then finish setup and find a meal today in seconds. Launch price through December 2, 2026, for new subscribers in the US: 40% off your first month or your first year (Just me $4.19 your first month or $41.99 your first year; the partner plan $5.99 your first month or $59.99 your first year), if your Apple Account is eligible, one per household; each plan then renews at its full price unless you cancel. Me and the Guide are always open, including Restore purchases, unlinking, and the Terms and Privacy Policy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account, and a subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. Refunds are handled by Apple.
Who pays for the partner plan? You do, on your phone: choose the Partner plan on "Choose your plan" (right after "Who's this for?") or on your Me tab, and it covers both linked phones. Your partner's phone has nothing to buy; it's covered as soon as your partner plan is active. If you have the Just me plan, switch to the partner plan on your Me tab: Apple swaps it over, so you never pay twice. Canceling stops the renewal; the plan stays active until the period ends.
How do I delete my data? On your Me tab, tap "Delete my data". It says what goes, asks first, then deletes your link record, invite codes and anonymous ID online (your partner's phone is unlinked) and everything the app saved on your phone. It doesn't cancel your Apple subscription: the same card opens your subscription settings (Settings > Subscriptions).
Does my partner need an iPhone? For the partner plan, yes, for now: Partner Mode needs both of you on iPhone for now. You can still use the app on your own with the Just me plan, and text your partner from it on any phone.
One of us changed phone numbers. Your link and your plan don't change. Each phone keeps both numbers, so update it in both places: the person with the new number edits their Me card on the Me tab, and the other person edits the Partner card on theirs, so the "Text" buttons reach the new number.
One of us got a new iPhone. If you moved everything with an iCloud backup or Quick Start, the app comes back as it was. On a fresh setup, the app starts over and your history stays on the old phone (it never goes online). Then relink: the person still on their old phone taps Unlink on the Me tab, and she makes a fresh code for the new phone. If you paid for the plan, tap Restore purchases on your new phone. Your plan comes back without paying again.
Can I turn reminders off? Yes, on the Me tab in the app, or in your phone's Settings under Notifications.
