## What is Charly?

Charly is the shopping list for your household, for the two of you, for the flatshare or for a week away with friends. Everyone writes on it, everyone sees the same thing, right away.

ONE LIST, SEVERAL PEOPLE, NOTHING LOST
Add something from the sofa, your partner ticks it off in the store: the list is identical on every phone, even offline. Every change is merged item by item, never overwritten. You are told when someone adds something: “Alex added Milk, Eggs”.

SORTED THE WAY THE STORE IS
Your stores, your aisles. The list sorts itself by store and then by category, in the order you walk the aisles. Swipe from one store to the next. Charly learns where you buy each product and files it away on its own the next time.

ONE SPACE PER GROUP
Home, the holiday house, the flatshare: each space has its own list, its own stores, its own recipes and its own meal plan, and is shared separately. Invite whoever you like over iCloud, with no account to create.

RECIPES THAT TELL YOU THE TRUTH
A hundred and two balanced recipes to start from, sixteen of them comfort food done right: burger with sweet potato fries, tacos, fish and chips, mac and cheese, ramen. Add your own and Charly works out calories, protein, fat, carbs and fiber per serving, then tells you whether it is balanced, too fatty or short on protein. Six hundred and one foods and spices in the database, sixty-six of them spices.

THE WEEK'S MENU IN TWO MINUTES
Plan lunch and dinner across seven days. Charly adds up the ingredients of every meal, takes out what is already in your pantry, and sends the rest to the list. It reminds you when you last cooked a recipe, so you can vary.

IN YOUR POCKET, WHILE YOU SHOP
The widget shows what is left to pick up and ticks off without opening the app. The Live Activity tells you where you are in the current aisle and what is waiting in the next one.

IN FIVE LANGUAGES
English, French, Dutch, German and Spanish. Everyone types in their own: “paprika” lands in the vegetables for a Dutch speaker and in the spices for a French one, and the shared list stays the same for everybody.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
Everything lives in your iCloud and in the iCloud of the people you invite. No account, no third-party server, no ads, nothing collected. And nothing disappears on one unlucky tap: whatever you delete goes to the trash and can be restored for thirty days.
