Ha! Either, or feel free to email me at [email protected].

The app actually has an OCR recipe importer (tap "Add Recipe" > "Scan Recipe"). It uses Apple's native iOS OCR library, which inserts text directly from the camera.
It doesn't support importing from an existing photo yet though -- that's high up on my list to build (after Android).

You can upload photos for recipes!

That's a really good point. I bet much of the underlying functionality could be re-used in a completely different app focused on something like mechanics. Another example I've thought about is a separate app specific to cocktail recipes, with features tailored around mixology and bar management.
