Dash is the shared list for the people in your life. Roommates fighting over who's buying paper towels? Couples losing track of what's in the fridge? Families running ten errands across three text threads? Dash keeps all of it in one place — and everyone on the same page, in real time. No more "wait, did you already get bread?" No more screenshotting a grocery list to your partner. Add an item on your phone and it shows up on theirs instantly. — WHAT YOU CAN DO — • Make as many lists as you want — groceries, chores, weekend errands, packing for a trip, the running list of everything broken in your apartment. • Share any list with a tap. Anyone you share it with can add, check off, or reorder items live. • Real-time sync across every device. No refresh, no waiting, no merge conflicts. • Reorder items by dragging. Check things off as you go. • Works without an account. Open the app and start adding — no sign-up wall, no ads. • Sign in with Apple or Google when you want to keep lists across devices or share with someone. — BUILT FOR — • Roommates splitting groceries and household supplies • Couples coordinating shopping, errands, and meal prep • Families managing chores, school runs, and weekend to-dos • Friends planning trips, parties, or move-in day • Anyone tired of running their household over group chat — WHY DASH — We didn't build another bloated productivity app. No projects, no tags, no priority levels, no AI assistant trying to summarize your grocery list. Just shared lists that work the moment you share them. Open the app, type the thing you need, hand the list to someone you live with. That's it.
