I don't own an iPhone, or any sort of smart phone or tablet (I'm not a luddite). I LOVE writing recipes down, scrawling notes into recipe books, pulling out old recipes written down in the handwriting of an aged aunt or long lost loved one, especially if they are dog-eared and stained with the splashes of some delicious endeavour.
My notes vary in form from additions in the front or back of a book, headers and footers to existing recipes, cut out snippets from magazines, and slightly more orderly recipe cards.
Sadly, my most recent affection for recipes cards from the stable of Nut and Bee has been cut short, as they are no more (although Annette, the owner/artist, still blogs of her exploits). I shall, however, continue to use up my stock and search for a replacement as I just don't think I am the 'baking with recipe on the tablet' type.....for one thing I would worry about getting flour or egg or something on the electronics (and as I have said, I think this just adds to the paper copy's authenticity).
Long live paper I say (don't get me started on books vs ebooks!)......
