  • I love this app! Wish I could detail recipes

    I have been using this grocery app for years, and have been able to keep track of so many things, like the new kind of deodorant my teenager is using (snap a photo), the toothpaste my husband prefers, and a list of things my relatives like to eat when they come to visit. Recently I checked out an app that focuses on recipes and drops the recipe into a shopping list. I have recipes in “lists” in Our Groceries, but I have a hard time finding them. There is no way to pull up lists/recipes.
    My least favorite chore is meal planning and making the grocery list. This app really helps me keep track of the list.

  • Best grocery list app ever!

    My wife and I have been using this app for a couple of years, and we LOVE it. It is very intuitive and having shared lists makes tag-team shopping really easy. I recently discovered the Add Multiple Items setting and I was amazed how easy it is to use. When we are both shopping at the same time, we found that using the Star feature to indicate out-of-stock items helped keep us from doing double searches. Also, being able to move items from one list to another allows use to shop in two stores simultaneously and put out-of-stock or overpriced items on the other person’s store list in real time. The developers are actively adding even more great features. Keep them coming!

  • I can only think of one upgrade that would bring to a 5 rating

    I truly wish the app would create a master list from all of the individual lists. Sometimes one store is out of something I normally buy there so I need it at another store. I don’t want to have to go in & change the item to a new list. This way I can quickly see what’s outstanding & pick it up at another store. Stores being out of random items is common since the pandemic so it’s even more important to have a master list. I got used to this feature in Grocery IQ and only thing I miss. Otherwise this is a good, useful app.

  • Love this app but...

    I’ve been using this app for years. My daughter-in-law told me about it and I love it! But it would be great to be able to share my list with more than one person. My husband and I both add to the list and we usually shop together. One gets the items and the other marks it off the list. I also would like to use this app for purchases that I make for other groups that’s involved with and would like to be able to share the app with them so when we need to purchase something, either one can add to that list.

  • Love it, BUT please, please allow different categories per each shopping list

    This is by far the most useful app I have. It is easy to use and intuitive. I love that I can add ingredients from my recipes and just click the one item that I am out of and it goes straight to my shopping list. It saves me so much time.

    It would be amazing if the developers could find a way to allow you to change the categories for the individual items on different lists. For example I have grocery store list and a Target list. My categories are set up for me to easily find the item at Grocery store, but they don’t work for Target. For example, at Grocery store “dairy free cream cheese” would be categorized in the “Dairy” section, but at Target it would be categorized in the “fresh fruit/veggie” section of the store. The categories perfectly align to speed up my shopping at the Grocery store, but for Target it is a disorganized mess. I would love if when I got to select my item “dairy free cream cheese” it would offer the two options “Target list, fresh veggie category”” and “Grocery store, dairy section”.

  • The perfect grocery app

    I was using notes for my grocery lists for months and I thought there had to be something better. This app is exactly what I was hoping to find. I love that I can share the same lists with my whole household so anyone can update when something needs to be added. I love that it automatically categorizes most items. I love that it saves the weird notations I make on items. This app is so easy to use and extremely handy!! I haven’t started using the meal/recipe feature yet but if I had the time to upload all my recipes I think I would be able to get even more function and ease from this app. Absolutely excellent development!

  • Wish I could give it 6 stars!

    This has god to be the best purchase I’ve ever made on the App Store. My wife and I use it almost daily for YEARS. First off, it’s free, but to remove a little banner ad (and support the developers) you can pay a few bucks. And no subscriptions either, like so many app devs are doing nowadays. And it’s still being actively developed, with new updates adding features often. And it’s stable. It might be the only iOS app I have that has never ver crashed. AND (I have a lot of ands for this app) it’s on the web also, so you can add stuff to your lists if your iPhone isn’t handy.

    We use it daily for our shopping list, but we also have lists for Vacation Packing, Camping Trips and even keeping a list of potential names for our son (we chose Matthew)!

    Love the app, best investment I’ve made in an iOS app!

  • Amazing Support

    Update: OurGroceries support responded to an email I sent on this topic and worked with me until the problem was solved.

    My husband and I have been using this app for more than a year, and we have liked it. But we have been spending a couple of months visiting family in Canada, and every time we go to the store, the app adds Mountain High Vanilla Yoghurt (Canadian spelling) and Mountain High Plain Yoghurt to the list. If I cross them off, they jump right back on. Since we have been shopping together, it’s been good for a laugh, but we could run into trouble if one of us thought the other added new items to the list and we started coming home with a lot of stuff we didn’t want. It would defeat the purpose of the app.

  • So useful!

    This is probably my most-used, most-useful app. I highly recommend it.

    When my previous grocery list app was phased out, I downloaded a few others to try out. I liked this one the best, and is better than the old one!
    I love that my husband and I can add things from our phones throughout the week, and everything is there when I go shopping.
    One thing I did to make it even easier to shop is to create my own aisle names, preceded by the aisle number for my main grocery store.
    For example, 06 - Condiments/Dressings, 08 - Baking Goods/Candy. This way, everything is in the order of that route I take through the store. And adding new things to the list, it’s easy to see which aisle would have the item since my custom name specifies it. It took a little extra time to set it up this way, but was well-worth it for me. If you don’t do custom named/numbered lists, the app will suggest a category, so that would be useful too.

    With the premium upgrade you can even add pictures of an item to ensure the spouse doesn’t pick up the wrong variety.

  • Does sorting by aisle, just like I wanted

    I have been looking for a shopping list app that lets me organize by aisle, which allows me to go from top to bottom in the list in a manner that matches my path in the store. I was very happy to discover this feature exists here — and it lets me arrange and rearrange the order of categories how I please! I use emoji to help me visualize this even more (💊Pharmacy, 🍊Produce, etc.). I wish I could change the group color to something besides green, and the $10 price tag to get rid of ads (plus other features) is a bit steep, but I will consider it worth supporting the developer once I have settled in and used it for a while.

    Addendum (Dec 09, 2020) - I decided I liked the app well enough to support the developer with the no-ads purchase. Thanks for having such great custom sorting options!
