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.

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 clearest difference is in-app purchases: Woolx Merino at none against Stores's 1. Woolx Merino also leads on ratings volume (2.4K vs 5). Stores's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and review sentiment (100% vs 87%). On price, rating, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
