ServeLanes

See exactly what moves when one cooking step runs late

Bring several dishes to the table at one clear serve time.

ServeLanes turns the cooking steps you enter into a transparent lane timeline. Add up to six dish lanes and 24 steps, set each duration, and connect the steps that must happen in order. The app works backward from your chosen serve time so you know when every step should begin.

When a completed step runs late, ServeLanes shows the rule instead of hiding it. Only not-started downstream steps move by the minimum amount needed to preserve their dependencies. Unrelated lanes, your original durations, and steps already started or completed stay fixed. If the timeline can no longer meet the target, the app shows the later estimated serve time honestly.

Why ServeLanes:
Editable two-dish sample shows the core result in under a minute
User-authored step graph with explicit cross-lane dependencies
Exact cycle path when a dependency would create a loop
Automatic on-device recovery of your latest plan and live session
Clear impact ledger listing moved and unchanged steps
English and Korean, light and dark themes, large-text reflow, and TalkBack-friendly summaries
Offline core with no account

ServeLanes is a scheduling utility, not cooking or food-safety advice. It does not provide recipes or determine doneness, temperature, storage, holding, reheating, nutrition, allergens, equipment capacity, or whether a duration is appropriate. Always follow authoritative cooking and safety instructions.

The live timer can notify you about the next actionable boundary. Notification availability depends on Android permissions and device settings; keep the in-app timeline available when timing is important.
