Add Items Manually Add individual items directly to your shopping list when you want to quickly add one or a few items. You can also include an optional quantity or weight. How to add: Tap the + button on the Shopping List page. Enter the item name and optional quantity or weight, then tap Add. The item is immediately added to your shopping list and labelled Other. You can continue adding more items and close the pop-up when finished. 2. Create a Bulk List Create multiple shopping-list items at once, making it easy to use an existing list from Notes, Messages, WhatsApp, or another app. This helps save time when you have many items to add and avoids entering each item individually. It is especially useful when you already have a prepared shopping list and want to transfer it quickly. You can add many items in just a few seconds instead of entering them one by one. This makes creating a shopping list faster, more convenient, and easier to manage. How to add: Go to Create List and type or paste your shopping list. Separate items using line breaks or commas, and optionally include quantities or weights. Tap Create List to quickly add all valid items to your shopping list. Duplicate items are automatically ignored. Tap How to Add to view the supported format and examples. 3. Quick Add Items Quick Add provides 400+ built-in shopping items organized into categories, helping you create a shopping list quickly with simple taps. It can also help you remember commonly purchased items. Categories include Fruits, Vegetables, Grocery, Dairy & Eggs, Meat, and Household. Filters are available to help find items based on different characteristics and household uses. How to add: Go to the Quick Add page, select a category, and tap any item you want to add. The selected item is immediately added to your shopping list. 4. Favourites Save your regularly purchased items so you can quickly add them to future shopping lists. You can save an optional quantity or weight with each Favourite. How to add: Go to the Quick Add page and open Favourites. Tap the + button, enter the item name and optional quantity or weight, then tap Add. Later, simply tap a Favourite to add it to your shopping list. Favourite items are labelled Fav for easy identification.
