SMART LISTS Create unlimited lists, automatically grouped by category. Add quantity, brand and price for each item and keep track of what you've already bought. REAL-TIME FAMILY SHARING Invite anyone to collaborate on a list: every item added, checked or edited syncs instantly across every device, via iCloud. No account to create β€” just an invite. QUICK SHARE For a fast, one-off share, send a list as plain text or as a file β€” even to people who don't have the app yet, via Messages, Mail or AirDrop. PRICE HISTORY ShoppingShared remembers what you paid for each item over time, so you instantly spot when a price has gone up or it's time to stock up. BUDGET UNDER CONTROL Set a per-list or monthly budget and get alerted as you approach the limit. Clear charts show exactly where your money goes, category by category. WIDGET & APPLE WATCH Check your active list from the Home Screen or your wrist, without opening the app. Check items off right from your Apple Watch.
