I 💗 this app!!
I’m a long time user of this app and absolutely love it!! I’ve tried many other grocery apps, but none hold a candle to the functionality and customization of this one. It helps me stay organized and on budget weekly. There is some initial setup involved, but well worth it. You can set up different stores/lists and when you add an item you can designate which stores carry it, as well as assign separate pricing per store. You can also create and assign aisles to each item so it saves time and eliminates ping pinging across the store when you’re shopping. You can also add tax per item. You can move and copy items to different stores and share a shopping list with someone else. If you ever have an issue, simply email support and they are very responsive. This is by far one of the most used apps on my phone. Thanks to the Grocery Gadget team for all you do and for making my Mom job of weekly grocery shopping a lot more enjoyable.

Code bar reader do not work iPhone 15 pro max
After multiple attempts with the creator for 1 year bug is NOT fix.
Does not sync properly
Synching between iOS devices does not work properly. Even though they are connected to the same account they don’t synch correctly
Thats not quite it.
I had an old version that became obsolete with the IOS upgrades. Kept it on my IPad hoping it would work some day. Dumped it a few months ago and now I find this new version. Was so happy as what I am using right now is ok but not as functional. Unfortunately, your new version is not as good as the previous one I had. What is missing:
I normally create a list of what I need as the week goes along, not indicating a particular store and then, when the flyers come in I go to the list, write in the price on special and tick of the store the special is offered in. With the old version, when I went shopping, I would click on a store, the list that would come up would be all the items that I had not put a store mention on and the ones I had put for that store.
Now how the app works is that when I go shopping and choose a store, I get only the items that I had put for that store, but not the « orphan » ones that have no store, so I keep having to go to two list.
Hoping you can upgrade for this function and then I will definitely pay for the upgrade.
I hope my explanation is clear.

Used to be a great app
I’ve been using this app for many years and it was one of my go to apps. It was just wonderful for shopping at the very stores and I regularly shop in. I have hundreds of items on my list. A couple of upgrades ago it decided to add almost every item in all my lists to the local hardware store I had recently added. And if you delete the store you delete everything in its lists, so I can’t delete it. Further I just found out I can’t add stores anymore at all. I can’t believe how far downhill this app has gone in the last couple of years. One star is way too good for this app. Edit: more than a year later, and nothings fixed. Obviously if they've stopped maintaining this app.
Edit: i've replaced Grocery gadget with AnyList which has, near as I can tell all the features of Grocery gadget without any of the many glitches.

Only one flaw
On the Grocery Gadget main website, on my PC, I set it to show 100 items so can I look at my grocery list online but the next time I go in it has set it back to 15 or whatever.
Other than that tiny, tiny irritation this app is brilliant. I would never want to be without it. Three different grocery shop lists, fruit and veg shop list, Easter and Christmas lists, other, that includes hardware, garden stuff, pharmacy. It is so far and away the best it has no competitor.

Easy
Easy to customize , I use it for books I want to read, places, any kind of list as well as groceries. 5 stars.
Frustration
Not very user friendly for us older folks.
Great app, especially for real-time synchronization
I have been using this app for many years, possibly a decade. As I run out of items at home, I can grab my phone and add what I need to the Grocery Gadget app. My husband is always in and out of the grocery store, so I synchronize the list with his phone as well. If he’s at the store and I suddenly realize we need something, I can add it to the list while he’s at the store and it will populate on his phone. From home, I can see the items as he checks them off. I can set up a separate list for the grocery store, Costco, Home Depot, or any other store we shop at. I have even set up recipes by name and added ingredients for those specific recipes. I love that we can see items in a multiple line view in the app in case it is a detailed description. After shopping is completed, I click on the “shopping done” button. All items that were purchased will be removed from that list, and items that could not be found will remain on the list for the next shopping trip. We personally don’t use the aisle feature, but I can imagine it would be a great time saver. Highly recommend this app. It’s been a fantastic convenience for us.

Use it every week
I use it every week. Would be better if there was a way to compare items at different stores by cost per weight as each store I shop at carries different sizes. Also it could be better if I could make my list with something generic like “Apples” and then depending on what they have I might fill it with Fuji or Pink Lady depending on what looks best. A third thing that would be nice is a price history that shows me what it cost over the last couple years. Overall a good app that I am happy with.
