What's New in Family Lists
1.4.3
October 18, 2026
Editing is quicker: change anything you've already added and it saves as soon as you close the form. No Save button to remember. Groceries: notes now show right on the card, and your household keeps its own list of stores. Type a new store once and it's there for everyone next time, and you can remove any store nobody's using. Tapping the list while you type puts the keyboard away. Big dinners are tidier. Guest list and Supplies sit right under the banner, every section has a simple + button, each guest shows at a glance whether they're bringing a dish, and the forms got a fresh, more colourful look. Notes for next time fold away under the headcount, and "Our stuff" is now simply Supplies.
