Simple Shopping List is the fastest way to write a grocery list, share it with your family, and check items off as you shop. No clutter, no sign-up, no learning curve — open it and start typing. Most shopping list apps make you fight the interface. This one gets out of the way: add items in seconds, drag to reorder, bulk-add a whole week of groceries at once, and check things off with a tap while you push a cart one-handed. How do I share a shopping list with my family? Create an online list and invite them. Everyone sees the same list update live — so when your partner grabs the milk, it disappears from your list too. Can I use it without the internet? Yes. Local lists work entirely offline and stay on your device, with no account required. Online lists sync when you are connected, and you can keep both kinds side by side. What is free and what is paid? The app is free and includes up to three lists — local, online, or shared — with every feature unlocked: live sharing, drag-and-drop reordering, bulk add, dark mode, custom themes, font sizing and row-height controls. PRO — monthly, yearly, or a one-time lifetime purchase — removes ads and lifts the three-list limit. Built for groceries, pantry restocks, household errands, weekly meal planning, quick notes, and everyday to-do lists. Features • Three kinds of list — local, online, and online + local together • Live sharing with family, partners, or roommates • Bulk add — type or paste a whole list at once • Drag-and-drop reordering • Works offline; optional online sync • Dark mode, custom themes, adjustable font size and row height • Fast one-handed check-off while you shop • No sign-up required to get started Questions/feedback: help@lamigsoftware.com Privacy Policy: https://lamigsoftware.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://lamigsoftware.com/terms
