Could be better

App is ok for what it is, however be aware that if you create a list you can’t see the list whilst shopping!!

Stop breaking features

The SmartShop app was really good, but now the feature has been moved into the Sainsbury’s app and redesigned so that it is completely counterintuitive. Why do I have to give my location and scan an on site qr code? Why does the scan function just continually repeating the same scan before indicating that it has scanned the first time? Any item unbilled in my shop should be charged to the app development team as they are wholly responsible for such a failure of a service.

Invalid number

The app claims my Nectar number is invalid. What to do? It’s wrong on that.

Poor in store user experience

The in store shop and scan function is a major downgrade from the old dedicated shopping app. This version is painfully slow and freezes often. On my last visit it failed to send the shop to the till and crashed it, meaning i had to scan everything manually. Won’t be using it again.

Missing useful ‘SmartShop’ shopping list function

Please, please, PLEASE introduce the ‘Smartshop’ shopping list function and allow us to import our existing lists.
After using SmartShop for several years this is one of the most useful functions within the app as it contains virtually every item that I’ve bought from Sainsbury’s during that period, including items bought weekly, monthly and annually.
The new ‘Smart List’, currently in Beta mode is not even close in terms of usability.
Please allow us (long term) users to import our existing SmartShop list.
Thanking you, with my fingers crossed.

FAQ

What can I do with the Sainsbury's Groceries app?

The app allows you to browse and search over 30,000 grocery products, create new orders, or edit existing ones. You can also link your Nectar card to collect rewards points, access deals, and choose between home delivery or Click & Collect from a Sainsbury's store.

How do I use the Nectar card feature?

You can link your existing Nectar card within the app. Once linked, you will automatically collect Nectar points on your grocery purchases made through the app, earning rewards as you shop.

Is the Sainsbury's Groceries app free to use?

Yes, the app itself is free to download and use. While there are no direct costs to use the app's features, you will be purchasing groceries and potentially paying for delivery slots or services.

Can I get my groceries delivered or collect them?

Yes, the app offers both home delivery services across the UK and a Click & Collect option. You can choose your preferred delivery date and time, or pick up your shopping from one of their stores.

What if I'm new to online grocery shopping?

The app is designed to be user-friendly for new online shoppers. Registration is quick, and the app automatically adds your most ordered items to your Favourites, making subsequent shopping trips faster and more convenient.
