### 5/5 — Review

*2026-08-20, version 10*

Real good app. Would like to have multiple carts.

### 1/5 — Incorrect Base State Tax

*2026-08-09, version 6.9.3*

Free version of app doesn’t allow entry of custom tax rate for my municipality, and the State tax rate listed is wrong. Not useful at all

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-02, version 6.9.3*

I love it so much use it every day

### 5/5 — Ok

*2026-07-10, version 6.9.3*

Best app ever

### 1/5 — Unfriendly

*2026-07-03, version 6.9.3*

At the start it won’t let me change to self input once I chose by state.

### 5/5 — Best grocery shopping app ever

*2026-07-03, version 6.9.3*

This is the best grocery shopping app ever.  Easy to make a master list to select from for a weekly list.  Always know how much the the bill will be before I get to the register.  Keeps a running total of what’s in the cart.  Applies discounts, coupons, taxes as items are added to the cart. Excellent!

### 5/5 — Larch

*2026-07-03, version 6.9.3*

Larch

### 4/5 — Missing only one thing to make it 5 stars

*2026-06-24*

the one thing that is missing is an ability to set a budget for instance if I only want to spend a hundred dollars at a location for it to be able to count it down let me know how much I have left to spend and a second thing which would be a nice plus but probably a premium feature would be to be able to delegate whether or not I am putting a taxable item or non taxable item into the register in most states non-processed food is non taxable and in some states you'll get clothes and other things this depends on the state depends on where you're shopping but give a more accurate number I would have loved that as a premium feature

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you so much for your comments, I really appreciate the feedback. The Budget Cap feature is already available in Version 10 Beta, which is currently in testing. You can join the beta here: https://www.totalplusapp.com/version-10-beta.html.

Regarding taxable vs. non‑taxable items, it’s a bit tricky since the rules vary from state to state, but I’ll definitely look into possible solutions.

Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!

### 1/5 — No

*2026-06-10, version 6.9.3*

Never ask me over and over to rate you again

### 5/5 — best shopping companion

*2026-06-10, version 6.9.3*

this is the best app for your budgeting needs helps me save money at the grocery store and make sure I don’t go over my budget. I use this anytime and every time I shop specially in these times we all need to make sure that we spend only what we need to spend.
