### 2/5 — Unusable

*2024-03-01*

Way too buggy. Items remove themselves. Item names cannot be edited, even if left blank. Categories remove themselves. It constantly prompts you to pay for it, but it is literally not functional as a grocery list manager. The only reason I gave it an extra star is because the design looks nice. Maybe the functionality will match it one day.

### 3/5 — Nice 2.0 update

*2023-11-02*

Apple Watch app displays no items. As such it’s become unusable for me. A shame because I believe this had real potential to be the shopping app that ruled them all. Hopefully after breathing new life into the app, it not be abandoned, like so many potentially great apps have. 🤞 

Previous update:
Nice update. Can see you’ve been hard at work making improvements. Like what I see so far. There are a few bugs (including here because I couldn’t find a support link in the app) and I wanted to give you some feedback, mostly positive. First the bugs. When you go to add a new item when a filter is selected it doesn’t show on the interface. But an entry is created that you can’t see until you remove the filter (select None). Note: When a filter is selected I think the desired behavior would be to create a new item with the filter criteria added within the item itself. For example, if you picked a store filter, new items created with the filter selected should add each item with that store filled in on the item. The other bugs I saw involve the widgets. If you are in the US the total goes to the top in US dollars, but the individual items display the currency in British pounds. Also the total displayed on top of the widget doesn’t seem to be accurate. It doesn’t show the total of the entire list, nor the total of the filtered list. I think the desired behavior should be to use the total of the current filter, if any, otherwise display the total of the entire shopping list. The improvements are appreciated. And makes me want to give a relook to your app which I had high hopes for previously. Glad you are putting energy into it. It is a unique shopping app. And feels good to use. Simple with the right amount of features to not overcomplicate or overwhelm the user. I love the subtle colored hues in the UI, very pleasing to the eye. And the “magic” features are a nice touch. Few other things old love to see would be to add some different app icons to choose from, ideally with different shopping list icons and various colors to choose from. And an additional URL field for shopping online would be cool too. I haven’t tested the Apple Watch app yet but am looking forward to it. My subscription is coming up quickly — and your recent update is encouraging me to renew for another year. Thanks for the work.

### 3/5 — Had high hopes

*2023-06-08*

Wanted to love this and bought the year subscription. Hasn't been updated in a long time until recently, which shows some promise that it is still being developed. The last time I used it months and months ago, the major issues were the sync and apple watch. The apple watch app never was usable. The sync between devices was haphazard — and inconsistent.

I may retry the app and test it again. You may also want to consider upgrading the icon, as a contain of milk is uninspiring, and isn't going to attract plant-based customers. Just some food for thought ... I hope to be see continued life into this project. Thanks for listening.

### 1/5 — Mac app needs some work

*2022-02-07, version 1.0.9*

1-star becuase this is a paid app that still has beta-testing level issues. Stores entered on iOS version aren't syncing to macOS app. Sometimes when entering an item, all items change to the same name. Sorting by category does nothing. Sorting by name only sorts Pending items, not Completed list.

This app has potential, and I want to like it. But it was released before it was finished. These bugs need adressing first.

### 1/5 — Scam. Don’t buy it

*2022-01-22, version 1.0.9*

It doesn’t work. It doesn’t share list. It doesn’t show products. The developer doesn’t reply messages.  Don’t buy it!

**Developer response:** Hey there,

The latest set of updates resolves this. Hope this helps!

### 1/5 — Not ready for release

*2022-01-20, version 1.0.9*

It has some nice features, but when I started to go back and edit some items that I had entered the day before...it started putting previous edits intoo the new fields that I was editing and changing other items to be a dupllicate of an item that was being edited. So basicallly it is useless...don't buy!

### 1/5 — Sharing does not work

*2022-01-14, version 1.0.9*

Can’t really review the app because the main reason I purchased, sharing a list, does not work. I tried numerous things to get it to work and it just doesn’t. 

Fix this and I’ll revise my rating.

**Developer response:** Hey there,

The latest set of updates resolves this. Hope this helps!

### 1/5 — I Want to Like it….

*2022-01-13, version 1.0.9*

Because of the developers respect for privacy, however, the app simply does not work. It will not save its data to iCloud despite the fact I have that option turned on. It will not sync with my watch. I cannot get it to share lists with my wife. As is, it is useless.

**Developer response:** Hey there,

The latest set of updates resolves this. Hope this helps!

### 2/5 — Get sum share

*2022-01-07, version 1.0.9*

Not helpful if i cannot share with others to add :(

**Developer response:** Hey there,

The latest set of updates resolves this. Hope this helps!
