How do you keep track of your shopping list? Notepad? iMessage history with your family? What if crazy Uncle Jack already picked up all the drinks for the party tonight and you didn't see the message in the group chat? Lists don't have to be hard, confusing, or time-consuming. They can be simple and beautiful - and just work. It shouldn't matter if you're just keeping track of your own to-dos, or planning a getaway using a shared list with your family and friends. OurList is the easiest way to create and manage lists between as many people as you like. Add or finish todo's in a shared list, and everyone else will see the updates in real-time. ------ Ever go to the grocery store with your family? Mom probably has the list, and she's trying to delegate tasks to everyone. Billy forgot the ketchup and dad got distracted in the beer aisle. Everybody regroups to an angry mom and an empty cart. If everyone had OurList, you can all see the same list no matter where you are in the store! Once dad tracks down the quinoa, he can cross it off the list, and mom will see the update immediately over in aisle 4. ------ OurList is great for your own lists too! Keep shared lists separate from your personal lists to safely keep track of birthday gift ideas for your loved ones. A new idea cross your mind? Simple gestures make adding items to OurList a breeze. The less time you spend in the app, the better! ------ Planning a vacation with your friends? Everyone needs different things from the store, and the group chat is moving at a thousand miles an hour. Hopefully one of you is keeping track! In a google doc maybe? Bleh. Nobody wants to deal with that. Get everyone working on the same list to add new items and ideas as you think of them. Make sure everyone gets what they want and nothing is left behind. ------ Sharing lists is as easy as sending your family and friends a link. No codes or confirmations or 2 factor authentications. You're not trying to defend the missile silos, just trying to share your grocery list. OurList has a simple, fast sign-up process, which keeps all your lists synced and backed up to your personal account. That way, if anything ever happens to your phone (your little brother decides to bowl with it at the grocery store), your lists will always be accessible. --- OurList is a simple, no-frills list app with easy sharing and even easier list management. Don't get bogged down with notes, messages, or clunky apps. Use OurList to tackle your own tasks or conquer the grocery store together. Lists just got a whole lot better. --- Terms of use for OurList is defined by Apple's standard End User License Agreement, which can be found here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Commit at none against OurList's 11. Commit also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). OurList's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (103 vs 9). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

OurList holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OurList has 103 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of OurList's written reviews are positive against 100% of Commit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
