Bad
Badly designed and implemented.
Trying out the app - a few observations
I’d be more inclined to purchase this app if it could do the following:
iPad compatible - would make planning so much easier with a larger screen, especially with families building meal plans together.
Allow collaboration with family members living in the same household so we don’t double up on purchasing, can plan meals for the entire family.

More Aldi issues, bad UX, and poor data
Updating my review after trying again:
The prices on-app have shown lower than what’s in-store leading to a higher grocery bill.
Aldi prices missing despite identical products being at Coles/Woolies and Aldi (Coke 30 pack for example).
The UX is terrible even after the update, really hard to even know where to go. Just so busy and chock-full of CTAs.
On some products instead of a price per litre, it just lists the volume of the product (600mL rather than $6.67 / 1L, for example)
Finally and probably most importantly, needs more sharks :/

Inaccurate
This app has such potential but it’s just not accurate enough with pricing to rely on. A quick check on the cole’s app found that the same item was on special and half the price of what was listed on the wiselist app. Not worth it.
Great idea
Awesome ideas within this app, just clunky and difficult to use.
Flawed
This app is good for comparing prices but let’s just say it has potential.
The UI is a clunky disaster. It tries to do too much. I don’t need an AI chat bot in my shopping list. Item categories don’t always make sense and there’s no way to reorder lists. The meal planner is pretty inflexible. Products don’t always show up together, especially Aldi can be hard to find. Unit pricing is inconsistent. List doesn’t divide into stores although it claims to do so. Why doesn’t it tally my grocery bill? It has all the data.

Bad UX & mess
I installed to check price of grocery but it does so much more and UX IS SO HARD TO FIGURE OUT. On top of that randomly ads will pop up.
Ad driven
Too much ads, the real function is hard to access.

Has Potential
The app has huge potential but it’s soo unessesary clunky and not intuitive. And I get you have to make money somehow but the ads on free tier are overkill.
Prices aren’t accurate
I want to love this app, but I am finding week to week that the prices are just not accurate compared to the supermarkets website. The prices aren’t slightly off either, they are completely wrong.
Edit: even after the developers response, prices are still inaccurate today. This has been happening over a number of weeks. Bananas on the app are 0.63 cents at Aldi but on the Aldi website they are 0.45 cents as of 28/1/2026

Items
He cannot find products which you know they supply. I understand you can’t find everything.
Very poor user experience
Let’s ignore the ads thing - ads are annoying but a necessity with free services. Even so, the basic service should be easy to set up. It is very much not easy to set up. Adding loyalty cards expects you to have a physical card. I haven’t carried a physical loyalty card since well before COVID. You can add your card manually, the app claims, but doesn’t accept the card number copied/pasted from the Everyday Rewards app. There are no instructions around adding items to a list that I could see. It couldn’t find items like bread or milk. I presume it wants a specific brand - but I don’t care which brand of milk I have. I care about the type of milk I have and its price.
Gave up in disgust. Too painful to use.

Response from developer
Hi! We're sorry for the frustration. We've just released a major update to WiseList with a brand-new UI/UX and improved search. For loyalty cards, you can now copy and paste your barcode number directly—just make sure it is the barcode number and not the Flybuys member number. Please update to the latest version; we’d love to earn another chance!
Must have!
The best way to save money on weekly groceries
Torn on what to rate this app
The information about prices is amazing, but the UX is horrible. It actively makes you angry and irritated.
Add an item to list, shows quantity of items, click on it, empty. Search for its, again, shows it’s in the list… is there another list it should be in?
You’re better off using this to compare prices and using a paper and pen, just be sure to record which store has the cheaper price.
It’s a huge missed opportunity as I could easily justify paying for this app if the UX was usable. This needs to work more like the Coles app.

Broken
Was a great app until the newest update broke it. The grocery lair disappeared which u said is fixed by logging out and back in. Did that and now it’s stuck in an endless loop telling me I’m logged in on another device and forced me to log out to try again. 🤦♂️ thanks for your solution, u made it worse.

confusing
this app is so confusing. i have put my grocery list in. every time it updates, the list lost. this time i cant even find the list. terrible.
App broken by stupid AI integration
Your AI integration and intrusive ads were bad enough but now the grocery list is replaced by rubbish AI prompting. I just want my grocery list. Once I find a replacement app I’m deleting yours
Grocery List Missing
After recent update, can no longer access my grocery list :-( Can’t see any reason to keep using the app, unfortunately.
Recent Update
The recent update seemed to remove the wise list groceries tab where all your items are. I contacted the team and they told me it’s a bug issue.
You can log out and re log back in to get the list back.
5 stars on this app after I resolved this issue
