Life is busy, sometimes we forget things. Let NLB help you out. Never forget what to pick up from a store again. NLB is a location-based reminder app that notifies you when you're near stores with items on your shared shopping list, ensuring you never forget to pick up what you need while you're already out, making it the ultimate convenience tool for roommates and families managing shared items. By adding members to a group, users can have a shared list of items needed to buy. Using the members’ locations, NLB knows when these items are nearby and can be picked up quickly. NLB relieves the user of needing to remember these small tasks and sends notifications to remind the user as they’re driving, all while keeping a combined and updated list for every member of the group. To get started, its quite easy. Simply create an account for your group with a username and password, enable notifications and location at all times, and begin adding items to your list! We do not collect or store your location data! Location data remains on your phone and your phone only. It is solely used to notify you if you are within a couple hundred feet of a store.
