  1. 5/5Useful without being Annoying

    Love the useful functions like smart sorting. I appreciate that you can share lists with an account, but the app doesn’t try to push registering on you. No ads, it making a product out of you by selling all your data, and doesn’t bug you to turn on location services. I wish every app could be like this one.

  2. 5/5Hands down the best shopping app

    It is easy to use, has a great barcode scanner, helps you to add specials and sale items. Prices, quantities, works on multiple devices at the same time … it remembers things you bought and it is free ! Though a support is welcome and well deserved

  3. 5/5Top top notch!!!!

    I have used 20+ shopping apps over the years and this is by far THE BEST. All the things that can be done to make shopping easier is at your finger tips. I’d give it 10 stars if I could. Try it you won’t be disappointed.

  4. 5/5At first this app is what I was looking for

    The problem is that it doesn’t always sync to my iwatch. I’m requesting help, if they are able to fix this issue I will update my review.
