Hi Terri,
I haven't used any free ones, but my recipe app of choice is Paprika. It is $4.99 in the US, $5.79 in the Canadian app store and it and does support family sharing. Their website is www.PaprikaApp.com.
What I like about this app is that you can go into browser mode and then basically do a Google search for what you are looking for and once you find it, you tap on the "Save" button and the recipe is imported from whatever popular recipe site you found the recipe on into Paprika. Here the recipe is displayed in a very nice way, you have an ingredients tab and a Directions tab, you can scale the recipe if, for example, you want to make a double recipe and all ingrediants are calculated accordingly. You can also create your own categories and select one or more categories for a particular recipe. For example, you could have a category "Italian" and a category "Pasta" and if you have a Lasagna recipe you could select both these categories for the recipe and this way if you at some later time have a lot of recipes in Paprika and you want to display only Pasta recipes, you can do so and Lasagna would be part of the search, also if you display "Italian it would be there but of course you may have other Italian recipes which are not Pasta and this way you can really filter your recipes quite well.
There are a lot of other features like the ability to make shopping lists, have multiple timers going and so on.
Paprika supports just about every major recipe website there is and often when I find a good recipe on Food.com or AllRecipes.com I don't even try to read it online where there is a lot of clutter, I just import it into Paprika where it's displayed nicely, you can turn the rotor to lines and flick up and down in the ingredients or directions screen and read what is there. There is also a setting you can enable so the automatic screen lock function is disabled while Paprika is open and this way you don't have to constantly unlock your phone when you are cooking. As far as touching the phone with greasy, wet or dirty fingers, just stick it in a ziplock bag, the touch screen works perfectly through the bag and afterwards your phone comes out clean.
Paprika also has an app for the Mac and a new desktop application for Windows. I did buy it even though the computer versions are $20, but unfortunately it is not accessible. I do plan to bring this to the attention of the developers because it would be nice if you could use it on the computer and iOS devices since the recipes of course sync between all devices you use. I don't know if it is accessible on the Mac.
Lastly, here is the app store link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/paprika-recipe-manager-get/id392408028?mt=8

Subject: Accessible Recipe APPS
Hi once more everyone,
I was wondering, are there any free, accessible APPS out there, to find all kinds of recipes?
I want to be able to search by type of food, like chicken. Or search by such things as Mexican. I also want to have a way to collect, or save the recippes I like.
Any help with this would be so very much appreciated. The AP needs to work with a 4S.
Thank you,
Terri
