Paprika is great, I have had it for years (started with the prior version) and it was probably the first app I used to earnestly record recipes. However, if you're iOS/macOS only then I'd highly suggest you look at more recent alternatives and I'd specifically recommend Mela and Crouton. Not having to make it work across multiple platforms and generally being newer and seeing more ongoing development is a big advantage but I'll highlight two unique benefits that I've seen.
syncing recipes - Mela/Crouton use iCloud sync as opposed to a proprietary account/sync system.
web recipe importing - all three have easy recipe sharing extensions to import recipes but Mela/Crouton do a much much better job of it. On major websites they're all on even footing but once you start importing recipes from recipe/lifestyle blogs then Paprika starts showing its age. You'll end up with a lot the personal story bits in the instructions whereas Mela/Crouton do an excellent job of keeping the instruction free of clutter while still adding some important tips in notes. Admittedly recipe blogs are tough because there is so much content so no app is 100% perfect all the time but even with that the difference can be night and day.
I hesitate to detract from the love-fest that Paprika is getting on here because it truly is a great app but yeah if I could only buy one it'd be Mela, followed by Crouton, then Paprika.
