Clean and brilliant in its simplicity. You create a master list of items you typically buy, and then create your shopping list by selecting items from the master list. When you initially add an item to the master list you can associate it with one or more stores where the item can be bought, along with the aisle where the item is found in each respective store. The shopping list is then ordered by aisle, which allows you to cruise through the store laser focused and not get distracted. You can create whatever in-store categories you want, in whatever order you want. So instead of associating an item with an aisle, you could associate it with a category like "Produce" or "Dairy." Or even use a combination of aisle numbers and named categories - it's up to you. I kept my Palm running for years so I could continue using one app - HandyShopper. Since then I've been looking for a replacement, which I finally found in this app. Thank you!! You have to check it out. Powerful. ### 5/5 — Genau das, was ich gesucht habe! *2014-05-26, version 1.5.1* SO muß eine Einkaufsliste sein! Kein unnützer Overhead, macht genau das, was es soll. ### 5/5 — einfach, nützlich und genial!!! *2014-03-01, version 1.5.1* Hätte nie geglaubt, das so eine App existiert! Habe es sofort in mein Herz und IPhone geschlossen und verwende es bei jedem Einkauf! Super gemacht Jungs!!! ### 5/5 — The Best *2013-05-30* Tried and trashed so many shopping apps- except this one. By FAR the best. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed!! *2013-05-03* I like the ability to select multiple stores for each item so that I can comparison shop or do one-stop shopping when needed. The shop-by-aisle feature is great!! Tried it today and couldn't believe how much more efficiently I shopped! I would like to be able to change the order of aisles and insert extras, since my memory of store aisles was somewhat lacking...perhaps in a future update?! ### 5/5 — So helpful *2013-04-12* Loving this app - thank you. Am able to have a master shopping list, separated into the different stores I shop at, so easy! ### 5/5 — Für mich bislang beste Einkaufs- App. *2013-03-27, version 1.0* Nach Erprobung vieler ähnlicher Apps habe ich mich für diese "aisle runner" (was soll bloß der merkwürdige Name?) entschieden. Zwar hat man anfangs etwas mehr Aufwand, da alle Artikel angelegt werden müssen, aber bei keiner anderen App. kann der eigene Weg durch die angestammten Supermärkte so flexibel angelegt werden. Und der jeweilige Artikel wird in den Listen aller Märkte gezeigt, bis man ihn irgendwo in den Einkaufswagen gelegt und auf der Liste durchgestrichen hat. Was mir noch fehlt: Die Reihenfolge der Gänge/ Warengondeln müsste nachträglich verschiebbar oder neue müssten beliebig einschiebbar sein- dann gibt's fünf ***** ! Nachtrag 27.03.13: Nach Kontakt mit dem Entwickler sehe ich: Die Gänge sind verschiebbar- ich war nur zu blöd, das zu erkennen. Daher jetzt volle Sternchenzahl! ### 5/5 — !!!!!!!!!!!!! *2013-01-31, version 1.0* Es ist einfach SUPER!!! Empfehlenswert ! :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can't get out of FAQ's *2013-09-07* Will have to reinstall ### 1/5 — Get rid of the badge *2013-03-10* An app badge for a grocery list is a useless feature and I can't turn it off. I fail to see how a red badge telling me how many things are on my list is at all useful. I created the list. I know it's there. Why do I care how many items are on it? I got rid of another shopping list because I couldn't get rid of the badge. Looks like I'm getting rid of this too. Too bad. Seems like a very good app. ### 2/5 — AisleRunner Ad Pop UPS in middle of screen *2019-05-29* Today I was using aisleRunner and add pop ups came in the middle of my screen. I couldn’t do anything unless I open that and said I wasn’t interested. I really liked AisleRunner— But not anymore and less I can get these ads to stop at least show up at the bottom of the screen instead of the middle ### 2/5 — Syncing not available?? *2018-06-20* When and if this app has syncing, I will for sure change my rating to a 5. Everything about this is awesome but the syncing. To me that’s a must have! ### 2/5 — Cannot get out FAQS *2013-06-05* I downloaded it for the first time and decided to read FAQS Found there was no option to get out of that and go back to the app Had to delete the app and re-install For now only two stars ### 3/5 — So close to being perfect. *2015-07-04* This app has some features that I absolutely love. I can add as many items as I want, customize the aisles where found, and choose multiple stores with their respective aisles for each item. If I need an item and I am in any store which carries it, it will be placed in that store's list. I REALLY like that feature. After using this app on multiple shopping trips, I've discovered some big issues with using this particular app. 1: No Aisle Delineation: Items are listed first by aisle, then alphabetically, but there is no delineation in the list. You are looking at one giant list with an aisle order that is unknown (alphabetic?) and not customizable. Basically you have to waste time scrolling through your list to find the first & last items in the particular aisle you want. It's eyeball straining and difficult. This is the biggest detraction of this app. 2. The master list is a bit of a pain. It's the first thing you see and it is populated with ALL of the items you have added. You can "search" it by starting to type the item name, then choosing it or simply run down the entire list choosing items you need. For me, opening the app and seeing a giant list was just counter-intuitive and sloppy looking. I don't need to see the back-end workings of the app when I open it. I'd prefer to see a list of my stores to quickly choose which one I'm going into or to open on the last store list I had used. 3. Toggling the "Need": when you are ready to shop, you have to click the "Need" toggle, which removes all of the other items you have entered from view. Now you have a list you can check off as you shop. This affects both the master list and individual store lists, so in essence you could simply shop from the master list, but it also makes the store lists a little confusing as all items available in a particular store can be seen via the store list. This, of course, brings the issue of which aisle you are in back, but it's not a bad idea unless you have multiple stores and a large list. Also, I found that if I was checking off an item from the top of the list, I would often inadvertently hit the "Need" toggle and the list would revert back to the "everything you have ever entered" list. For me, these are major issues that made the app unusable. All the other features of the app I really liked, especially how easy it was to customize and that it isn't bogged down with features I'll never use (coupons, pantries, & mind-my-business cloud storage come to mind). I think I would list this as a 5 star app if the developers would just add a simple bar between the aisle items with the aisle name. Add in a way to organize the aisle order for each store and I'd be in heaven. ### 3/5 — Enttäuscht *2013-04-02, version 1.0* Habe gerade 2,59 bezahlt um die Werbung zu entfernen, aber es tut sich nichts !!! Bisher war ich echt zufrieden , bis auf die nervige Werbung, ich hoffe sehr das die jetzt schnellstens verschwindet !! ### 4/5 — Sehr sehr gute App *2015-05-08, version 1.5.1* Einfach und sinnvoll zu bedienen! Punktabzug gibt es für die kleinen Zeilen. Das führt dazu, dass man schon mal die falsche Zeile markiert oder demarkiert. Wäre ein breiterer vielleicht besser? Auf Kosten der Übersichtlichkeit kann es nicht gehen, da die Liste eh sehr lang ist. Danke sehr! ### 4/5 — Great app *2015-02-21* Easy to use. Very user friendly. I've tried 4 other shopping apps. This is the easiest to use ### 4/5 — I enjoy going grocery shopping with this app *2013-09-02* Just a few more features like being able to sort aisles in the order I like would make it awesome. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best grocery app + Great Support *2026-08-19* With AI tech support as the corporate preference it is unusual to find a reasonable level of service for anything I have purchased these days, let alone for such an inexpensive product. I had problem when I upgraded to Premium. It was entirely my fault. I wrote to Erik the app developer. I received amazingly fast turnaround on getting things back to working properly. I love AisleRunner and will continue to use it because it is the best app out there for this purpose and I am more than happy to pay for the subscription when the trial ends because Erik is what this world needs more of… an honest entrepreneur and a man of honor. I hope that many more people subscribe to support future improvements, although I really can’t think of anything that needs to be improved. ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2026-02-18* I have used this grocery shopping app for years. It is without question the best one ever created ### 5/5 — Excellent *2023-10-13* I have been using aisle runner for over a year now. It has gotten so smart with my buying habits. I have over 100 items in it and it saves me so much time coming up with my shopping list and then organizing my shopping by aisle. Thank You ### 5/5 — AWESOME *2021-12-09* The best I have had **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind review. ### 5/5 — Time Saver *2021-11-27* When I go into the grocery store I want to purchase the items I want and get out. This application is great for that because it list what I want and I’ll sequence so I don’t have to run around the store looking for things. Unfortunately, my wife loves walking up and down the isles looking for new things. That way I can add new items to the application and we are both happy. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2020-06-01, version 2.3* I have been using aisle runner for over a year now. It has gotten so smart with my buying habits. I have over 100 items in it and it saves me so much time coming up with my shopping list and then organizing my shopping by aisle. Thank You ### 5/5 — honeymag *2017-09-14, version 2.0* Endlich ein Update von meiner geliebten App. Ich musste zwischenzeitlich umsteigen, war aber nicht so gut. Ich hoffe, dass ich jetzt wieder entspannt einkaufen kann und nichts mehr vergesse. ### 5/5 — Perfekt *2017-09-01, version 2.0* Genau was ich für die täglichen Einkäufe brauche: unterschiedliche Artikel gibt es in unterschiedlichen Läden, aber jeweils in einem anderen Gang. Das versteht sonst offenbar niemand. Außerdem: super übersichtlich, viele Artikel auf einem Screen. Alle täglichen Aktionen gehen schnell: als nötig markieren, als gekauft markieren, Laden wechseln etc. Ich will diese App nicht mehr missen! ### 5/5 — Love it *2016-02-23* Great app that is screen reader friendly and accessible for the blind users **Developer response:** Hello, I was very touched by your comment and this update is inspired by your review. I tried my best to add meaningful VoiceOver. I hope you find it useful. All the best, Erik ### 5/5 — An sich eine perfekte App *2015-04-19, version 1.5.1* Läuft stabil, ist die Einzige, welche eine vernünftige Sortierung für einen Artikel in mehreren Läden nach Regalen ermöglicht. Dringend fehlen jedoch manuelles Dropbox-Backup oder noch besser eine Synchronisation. Das wär dann auch Geld wert ... --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
