For myself, the one thing missing the quantity of items inside of the recipe itself. I am often using my phone to read a recipe while cooking and its annoying to have to scroll back and forth to see how much of something I need to add. I have all the ingredients out and ready, just tell me in the steps how much of a seasoning I need to be adding.

Yes! Phone screens are too small to show both the instructions and the ingredients at the same time. To address that in CookTime, I highlight any instance of an ingredient found in the recipe instructions and show the quantity if you click/tap on it. I could change it to just show it unconditionally if that wasn't apparent when you looked at a recipe (like this one for example https://letscooktime.com/Recipes/Details?id=ed962bb3-64b7-42...)
