Grocery List: Shopping List

I’ve used this app for 5+ years. It took a little time to set up but it’s worth it. When I go grocery shopping I don’t like going up and down all the isles looking for an item. My list was created by isle number and what’s on each isle. I create my list at home and I only see items I need by isle. So I can start at isle 20 (for example) then skip isles and go directly to the next isle where I need an item. That isle may be 8, therefore skipping 12 isles. Separate lists can be created for each store you shop at. If you enjoy going up and down each isle then by all means do so. If you would rather get in and get out, this list is amazing!

I too was mad when my old app didn’t transfer onto my new phone. I tried 3 other apps before deciding to look longer on the App site. I didn’t give 5 stars as it’s a little confusing to set the categories & add your list. I have finally got it figured out & will be using my list on Thursday when I go grocery shopping. Otherwise, I’m very happy to have you’re app back on my phone. The other choices I tried were terrible!

APP CREATORS::…PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE build a way to find the items that have been deleted as done items ~ OR ~ REMOVE the DELETE ALL option. Here is why I’m asking for that….. Today while grocery shopping I had about 10 items left on my list to get and as I was removing the items I had in my cart when a person accidentally bumped into me causing me to accidentally click delete all items….and POOF the entire shopping list gone with NO WAY to get it back. Like others I had the old version on my old phone but since I upgraded the phone the old version wouldn’t work on the new phone, I was frustrated because I had so many items on my grocery list I was not looking forward to putting in items information again, but I took my lumps and figured there was no other way….I LOVED the simplicity of the old version of the app and there was no way to delete all items on the list ONLY the checked off items of the list.

The writers have pretty much abandoned this app, it seems. The last update actually made organizing your lists more fragmented. Now, it randomly “turns off” the iCloud connection (despite still indicating it’s connected in the settings). Once you go back in, turn it off and on again, it changes and/or adds to your custom categories. It was really useful and user friendly at one point but it’s becoming more trouble than it’s worth. Since there hasn’t been an update in years, I’m guessing the owners have moved on.

Recently, this app has developed a problem syncing to the cloud. One day it’ll be fine and I will have my list to shop for, the next day it’ll all be gone and indicates it’s not synced to the cloud. I’ll be deleting and trying a new app.

Like the first review, I got a new phone and all of a sudden I couldn't use this app anymore. Apparently they have revamped it and I don't like it at all because there's ads I don't want ads popping up and I don't want to pay to have them to not pop up. I'm sure I will get used to the app but it's not as smooth as the other app there's too many steps. I'm very unhappy right now.

When my great old shopping list app was no longer available on my new iPhone, I went searching for a replacement. Everything I found was just complicated overkill and not user friendly for such a simple need. So it was great to find this app, which looks like the new version of my old one. Easy to set up (sad not to be able just transfer my old list items to this new one) and effortless to use. There are some new options that I’ll probably check out later, but with this app I’m back in business and on my way to Vons now! If you're new to shopping list apps, this one is a great choice and it’s free.

I like the app. Not as refined as the old but works…. I wish it had the ability to add tax. Literally it just needs an update and the full version is totally worth it!

The old version allowed me to cloud share my lists with my spouse so we could always know what was needed for our joint household. This new app i cannot see any way for my lists to be jointly accessed by my spouse. So its not very useful at all.

The old version of this app was great. Use to be able to sync with other devices. Now if I use other devices I find items disappear. Also with the old version it would stay open the entire time your shopping. This version. If you don’t keep touching the Screen it shuts down and you have to keep reopening it. Not very happy with this version at all.
