Your household shopping, on one list. Shopping List is a shared grocery list for everyone you live with: family, partner or roommates. Notice the milk is running low while you're at the fridge? Add it right there, and it appears instantly on the screen of whoever is at the store. When someone starts shopping or adds items, everyone gets a gentle notification. No more "did you already get that?", forgotten items or buying the same thing twice. MADE FOR • Families who split the shopping • Couples who share a home • Roommates who share household supplies • Anyone tired of notes on the fridge and scattered chat messages • Anyone who wants a simple list without the clutter FEATURES • Add with AI: paste a recipe or packing list, or pick a screenshot, and AI reads what to buy and adds it all at once. Things you probably already have at home, like spices, are sorted out for you • Real-time sync: additions and check-offs show up on everyone's screen instantly • Notifications: a heads-up when a family member starts shopping or adds items • Location reminders: when you come near a saved place, like home, your station or your usual store, you get a nudge if anything is still on the list. Your location is only checked on your device and is never shared or sent • Time reminders: pick the weekdays and time for a reminder before you shop • Item notes: keep a note under each item, like which store has the better price, shared with everyone on the list • Easy invites: just show a QR code or send a code • Multiple lists: separate lists for home, a party or a trip • Section dividers: organize items by aisle, like Produce or Household • One-tap check off: tap once when it's in the cart • Show only unchecked: focus on what's left with a single tap • Drag to reorder: arrange items in the order you walk the store • 24 color themes and 3 density levels: make it yours SIMPLE, SO YOU KEEP USING IT No complicated folders or settings.
