## What is Grocery Checklist?

For users searching for a simple and uncomplicated way to create that routine shopping list, this app is for you!  Being only a shopping list with no complicated add-ons will make it easier for you to use.

Use the Quick Add tab to create a list as you remember needed items in your busy day, or create a fuller weekly list using the extensive bank of items (more than 800) by clicking on the Add tab.  You can even add your own items to this bank so that everything you ever need to shop for can be added to your list at the click of a button.

Use the Notes field to indicate special features of your purchase such as weight, brand or price.

The green buttons to the left of your list provide a useful checklist function allowing you to check off items as you get them.  Or, using the red buttons to the right of your list, you can immediately delete items as they are purchased.

This app will make your shopping trip a breeze.  Never forget an item again!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2015-06-06*

I love this app. I've added my items that I would get from the stores on a regular basis. I don't have to worry about forgetting my grocery list, always have my phone with me. There haven't been any updates lately and it's starting to freeze. Please issue update so I can continue to use your app. Thank you.

### 3/5 — Good, could be better. Freezing issues.

*2015-05-23*

I like this app.  It gets the job done, but it is very basic.  It would be better if there was a way to create more than one list.  For example, one list for the grocery store and one list for the department store, etc.

Also, there seems to be an issue with freezing.  I've now had to uninstall and reinstall the app twice because it just ceases to work after a while.  Closing the app does not fix it, nor does restarting my device.  The only thing I've found that fixes it is to delete it and reinstall.  Kind of a pain.

### 3/5 — Great app but needs grouping

*2013-08-05*

This is the best grocery checklist app I've found so far because it allows you to create a list of your own commonly bought items to make your current shopping list from. This saves time, because you don't have to keep slogging through hundreds of items you never use. However, it still falls short because the common list and current shopping list are both arranged alphabetically. Sure, you can rearrange the items in the shopping list, but that takes time. I would like to be able to group items on the common list by category (custom-made, so they correspond with aisles in my favorite grocery store!), and then have them appear in those categories in the current list. This would save time both while creating the current shopping list and while shopping. That, and the ability to share/export lists, would make this a 5-star app for me.

### 5/5 — Grocery list

*2013-01-26*

Since I almost always have my phone with me, it is easier to keep my shopping list updated. I would start a list at home but remember something to add when my list wasn't with me.  Now I can always add to my list at the time I remember.

### 5/5 — Makes shopping easier

*2012-12-06*

It is easy to add and delete. I like the common item section i can click on the item i regularly buy and add to list. I wish that i could separate by stores but i find this app better then the rest of the apps i tried.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2012-11-25*

Good app. I don't use it for my regular weekly grocery list but I instead put items in that are less often bought - the things that I uses to always forget to buy or put on my weekly list. When I need something I put it in this app then whenever I go to ANY store I check to see if I can find one of these 'odd' items there. All in all I'm glad I have this app.

### 5/5 — One of my very favorites

*2012-08-19*

So simple and easy to use. I use it at EVERY shopping trip. I also like that it's a small program, no bells and whistles, and that the way I like it.

Use the "Common Items" button, to create items typical to YOUR shopping habits, and every week, there they are, ready to be added.  Then you can clear them from your list, as you put them in your shopping cart.  

Another great feature is, after you close the program, then reopen another time, the list you made is still there to be edited, so you can add throughout the week and not have to recreate it.  

How much more convenient can it be?

### 4/5 — Just tossed my paper list!

*2012-04-23*

Simple and easy. Love the categories but wish instead of the "other" category, there were an option to create your own. Since the shopping list does not categorize or alphabetize, you have to spend a bit of time moving items to where you want them. But overall, a very good app that gets a lot of usage. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Love this App!

*2012-03-26*

This app has been exactly what I've been looking for. So much better than my old paper lists, which seem to always get lost and I love being able to add items as I think of them wherever I am. Very intuitive and easy to use. I have now become a more efficient shopper. :)

### 5/5 — Easy to use!!

*2012-02-25*

Love this app.... it's the only one I've found that I actually use. Great features, easy to add items not on the common list.... but would be nice to be able to drag items to coordinate the list with the lay-out if the store.
