When I do not test the phones for Tom’s guide, you can usually find me in the kitchen, whisk, cook in advance to replenish my freezer or try a new recipe to add ready to use meals. And iOS 26 adds a new Apple Intelligence feature that helps me with this last task using the Reminders application to master the ingredients I need.
More specifically, any phone that supports Apple Intelligence – that is to say any iPhone 17, iPhone 16 or iPhone 15 Pro model – wins a new functionality of suggested reminders. This extension of Apple Intelligence draws the relevant tasks of emails, notes and more and transforms them into a list of recall tasks. In the case of recipes, you can use Apple Intelligence to create a grocery list of all ingredients from this recipe, with reminders by sorting this shopping list by type of ingredient (dairy, products, what do you have).
Apple says that the functionality works with recipes that you meet when browsing Safari, but it is really polite if you use it in conjunction with Apple News Plus and the Recipes that come in the service of Apple subscription news. I test the functionality from full -time upgrade to an Apple Intelligence compatible iPhone 17, and I can guide you through the finest points of suggested reminders.

To access your shopping list, Launch the Reminders and TAP TROCERIE application. Your list generated by Apple Intelligence will be there, with reminders sorting the different ingredients in categories. (This automatic broadcast is not really part of the Apple Intelligence – it is a feature in reminders since iOS 17.)
By the way, there is a neat tip in Apple News Plus where you can mark the ingredients you already have. Just press the ingredient in question for gray. When Apple Intelligence generates your shopping list, these ingredients will already be marked.
The process works in a similar way outside Apple News Plus, although Safari requires a little more intervention on your part.
1. Highlight the ingredients

I mentioned at the beginning that the suggested reminders also work with content in the notes and mail applications, transforming the tasks included in your notes and e-mails in tasks that you can follow in the reminders. The process is similar to the creation of a grocery list from a recipe on a Safari web page – let’s use an email on a rafting trip to guide you through the basic steps.
1. Select your text
