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. ## Is Please Buy safe?

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. ### 2.0.1 — 2026-11-01 Templates: save a list you buy again and again and add it in one tap, or let it add itself every week. Your store's aisles: after a trip, the list sorts itself in the order you walk that store. "Anna added 5 things": a notification when someone in the family adds to a shared list, a few things at a time. Easier adding: things you buy often appear as you tap the field, "milk, bread, eggs" adds three items, and voice review lets you join or split items. Spending: switch between Family and Mine, and share receipts from before the circle. Also: edit saved recipes, nudge alerts that set themselves up, a Language setting, and "Report a problem". ### 2.0.0 — 2026-10-30 What can I cook? See recipes you can make with what's at home, from 120 starter recipes and your family's recipe box, and add just the missing ingredients to your list. Use it up: an optional morning reminder about food that's close to its date, with a recipe idea. Siri and Shortcuts: "Add milk to Please Buy", "Do we have eggs in Please Buy?". Your lists and items also show up in Spotlight. Inviting family is fixed: Invite someone now sends a link you can share from any app. ### 1.0.0 — 2026-10-29 No release notes. ## More apps by Rinat Maltsev - [Magnet: Color Pull](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/magnet-color-pull/id6777515241) - [MobileDB: Postgres Client](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/mobiledb-postgres-client/id6780838850) - [Second Brain Map](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/second-brain-map/id6826707644) All apps by Rinat Maltsev: https://appshunter.io/developer/1859094074 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
