About
Please Buy is the shopping list your whole family actually uses. Share lists in real time, say what you need out loud, add a recipe's ingredients in one tap, nudge each other to pick things up, and scan receipts to see where the grocery money goes. Free, with no ads and no account: your lists live in your own iCloud.
ONE LIST, THE WHOLE FAMILY
• Make a family circle and share every list in real time
• "I'll get it": claim an item so nobody buys the milk twice
• See who added, claimed and checked off each item, and react with an emoji
• Share a single list with a friend for a party or a trip
ADD THINGS THE FAST WAY
• Just say it: "two oat milks, a dozen eggs and chips for the party list" becomes a tidy list, in English or Russian
• Type "2 oat milk", "1.5kg apples" or "eggs x12" and the amount is understood
• Paste a recipe link or share it from Safari or Instagram: the ingredients land on your list, scaled to your servings, skipping what you already have
• Scan a barcode to add the exact product, or scan in the store to check it off
• Items sort themselves into store sections, in the order you walk the aisles
• Ask Siri: "Add milk to Please Buy" or "Do we have eggs in Please Buy?"
PLEASE BUY
• Nudge someone to pick something up. They can reply "On it" right from the notification
• Tap "I'm at the store" and your family can add what they need while you shop
• Your trip lives on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island: check items off without unlocking
• Optional reminders when you arrive at a store you saved
ON YOUR WRIST AND HOME SCREEN
• Apple Watch app: check items off in the store with one tap, even with your phone in your pocket
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with tap-to-check, plus "Add by voice" in Control Center
KNOW WHAT'S AT HOME
• The "At home" pantry fills itself from what you check off and the receipts you scan
• Plenty, some or low: one tap, nobody counts eggs
• Out of something? Swipe, say "we're out of milk" or scan the empty package, and it's back on the list
• "Do we have eggs?" answered from the store, for the whole family
WHAT CAN I COOK?
• Recipes you can make with what's at home, from 120 starter recipes and your family's recipe box
• Things close to their date come first, and a morning reminder suggests a recipe before food goes off
• Add just the missing ingredients to your list in one tap
SNAP THE RECEIPT
• Scan a receipt and Please Buy reads it on your iPhone, with Apple Intelligence where available
• Items you bought are checked off your list automatically
• Every purchase is filed by category and store, and shared with your family circle if you like
SEE WHERE THE MONEY GOES
• Monthly spending by category, store and who paid, with clear charts
• Budgets for the month and for categories, with a heads-up before you go over
• Price history for everything you buy, and which store is cheapest
• "Running low?" suggestions when it's time to buy your regulars again
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics
• Lists, receipts, pantry and budgets are stored in your iCloud and shared only with people you invite
• Nudges between family members are encrypted
• Voice, receipt photos and your location are processed on your iPhone and never leave it
• Barcode lookups send only the barcode number to Open Food Facts, a free product database
Lists work offline and sync when you're back online.

What's New in Please Buy
2.0.2
November 1, 2026
Lists for more than one store: mark where to buy things with "milk @Costco" as you type, "milk from Costco" by voice, or "Buy at" on an item. Pick a store to see just its things, and a trip shows only what you can buy there. It remembers: next time you add ibuprofen, it goes to the pharmacy by itself. Arriving at a store counts only what to get there, and widgets and Apple Watch show each item's store.
