Abstract: “iLuto: A Filipino Recipe App for Android” is an Android application developed to help users with varying cooking skills learn how to easily prepare popular Filipino native recipes and unique dishes that are rarely found on a typical Filipino cookbook. The application help develop users’ skills as they progress thru different app features such as the “Fridge” to Search/ View recipe, Add/Remove Favorite Recipes, Daily Meal Planner, and the Grocery/ Shopping List. The application was created using Android Studio with SQLite Manager as its database. The researchers used the prototyping technique as a method to develop the application. The study was subjected to compatibility, conformance and functionality tests used to improve the performance of the application. It was further subjected to evaluation based on the Android core app quality standards (developer.android.com) with the criteria of functionality, performance and stability, and Google Play. Ten (10) IT experts and thirty (30) mobile users evaluated the app. Evaluation results revealed an overall mean of “3.62” with a Standard Deviation of “0.84”, interpreted as “Highly Acceptable”. Results proved that the mobile application is an effective tool to learn and enhance the skills of the users in cooking native Filipino cuisine.
