The NeedAnything app automatically alerts your chosen contacts when you are at your favorite stores and asks them “do you need anything?” You select the stores where you’d like to shop for others and assign the contacts for each store that you’d like to automatically alert when you arrive. Making a grocery stop on your way home? Alert your spouse automatically when you get to the store so you can find out if they need anything. Get their requests in real time and pick up their items. You'll save them from making a trip, save them money by bypassing delivery fees and you’ll save yourself from ever having to hear “You went where? I needed something!” IF YOU SHOP FOR OTHERS: We’ve got you covered! When you shop for relatives, co-workers, roommates and others, NeedAnything’s location technology detects when you are in a specific store you’ve listed and automatically alerts your chosen contacts in real time, asking them “do you need anything?” If you want to shop for more than one person, you can manage multiple requests all in one central spot. IF OTHERS SHOP FOR YOU: It’s easier than ever for others to help you get what you need from the store!
