About

ListUrWay

Read full description

ListUrWay is yet another App for making Lists!! HOWEVER, with some interesting and useful “twists”. When you go to the grocery store, have you ever wished you had a list organized by location? You can do that with ListUrWay. When you create a List, when you enter each item’s name, you have the option to enter a “sort” field . In the case of a grocery list, that “sort” field might be ”Produce”, ”Frozen” or whatever you want it to be. ListUrWay, of course, is not limited to grocery shopping. It works for any list that you want to sort by a specific field whose value you input. How about when you finish clicking all the checkboxes for the items you want to buy now? If you click the DUP button at the top, ListUrWay will automatically create a new list with just the items you checked, and you can Share your list with others.
