Shared grocery lists without another subscription. Stores is a calmer grocery list for couples, partners, and households. Add something from home, keep the details with the item, and watch the same list update while either of you shops. ONE PERSONAL LIST IS FREE Use one list and the everyday tools on your own for free. Premium is a one-time $4.99 upgrade in the U.S. It unlocks sharing, unlimited lists, camera tools, and more. The person you invite joins that shared list free. Their other lists stay Free unless they upgrade. App Store pricing may vary by storefront. SHOP THE SAME LIST Share with a short code. No contact access needed. Add items, leave comments, tag where to buy them, and check things off together. Changes stay in sync on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. KNOW WHERE TO BUY IT Tag items by store, then filter your list while you shop. With Premium, optional location reminders on iPhone and iPad can nudge you when you arrive. Tap the alert to open the list filtered for that store, or clear the filter to see everything again. Your precise location and saved branch coordinates stay on your device. KEEP THE DETAILS WITH THE ITEM With Premium, leave a comment when the brand, size, or flavor matters. On iPhone and iPad, you can also scan a barcode or attach a photo of the exact thing to buy. REMIND YOURSELF AT THE RIGHT TIME Add due dates and times, choose an exact alert or a daily due digest, and repeat items by weekday or day of the month. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Stores has no ads or in-app analytics. We do not sell your data or use it for advertising or tracking. Solo use does not require an account. We built Stores because the two of us could not agree on a grocery list. We are a married couple making Stores in Oregon, and we still use it for our own groceries every week.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Seelbach's at none against Stores's 1. Seelbach's also leads on ratings volume (863 vs 5) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Stores's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (100% vs 81%). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
