Our Groceries Shopping List

Our family loves this app! So easy for me to be cooking and just ask my husband to add something to the list as I notice we're running low. We have multiple lists for multiple stores, online and IRL. It's so easy for one of us to swing by a store on the way home from somewhere and pick up what's actually needed without having to make another trip for missed items. I can add things to the list while he's out if I know he's going to stop on the way home, like placing an Instacart order lol. We love that we can add photos of specific products so that the correct item is picked up. A COUPLE NOTES FOR DEVELOPERS:: 1. It would be great to have a hyperlink ability in the item details. We have lists where we include the link to where to buy online and we always have to copy paste into our text thread to make them clickable. 2. Would love if there were commands for Siri to add things to lists within the app (good for competing with Alexa). Sometimes I'm cooking and my hands are covered in oil and I want to update the list before I forget

My husband and I use this app to share, not just grocery lists, but a whole database of the items we buy. We are 100% Apple. There are native apps that would allow us to share a grocery list, but Our Groceries allows us to create a whole database of things we buy. Additionally, we can create unlimited lists to fit the way we shop. We created a list for each of the stores we frequent. When you add an item to a list, that item exists in your shared database of items. You can use categories provided by Our Groceries or create your own categories. So a grocery list doesn’t have to be one run-on list; it is broken into categories like “produce” with everything we buy from produce section of the store all in one section of our list. It updates in real time so we can split up in the grocery store and when we mark items off the list as we grab them it updates for everyone sharing the list immediately as long as they have data or wi-fi. If my husband is at a store and I find something else he needs to buy, I can add it to the list and he sees it immediately. This is one of those app downloads that has been incredibly useful for many years in keeping our very busy lives organized. Highly recommended!

I like a grocery app that has both a phone and a watch app. This one has that and does it fairly well. Going through the store checking your watch is easier than pulling your phone in and out and turning it on and off. This app lets you categorize products and it remembers the categories once you set them. It lets you add the same product to multiple store lists. I love the look of the app and it’s instant sync functionality. The areas of improvement the maker should address is that I find the flow for the addition of groceries to be clunky. It would be nicer if you could start to type an item select from the matching list and straight away specify how many and the category ( if it’s uncategorized ) without having to navigate around into the info screen for the product. I also find myself accidentally touching products to get to that information screen and instead it removes it from the list. This is counterintuitive. They should use a check box or a swipe left or right to remove the item from the list, which is more conventional. If you don’t wanna change now that you have a base of users, at least make it a preference setting for the newcomers.
