Best grocery list app to use for family

edited July 2022 in Other

Hi all, waaay off topic, but hopefully you can help. What’s the best app for keeping a communal grocery for my family. It needs to sync so that everyone can enter things they need (from their own phone) before I go to the store. I have been using Shoppylist, but it’s failed me for the last time. (It didn’t sync my wife’s items yesterday)

  • Notes app, or a shared list in reminders, if you’re all on iphones.

  • We do it the old-fashioned way:

    • leave a small piece of paper posted somewhere in the kitchen area
    • write down any grocery items as needed
  • @mistercharlie I’ve never used reminders, need to check that out…

  • Google Keep ?

    +1 for OneNote. It’s been over a year; I use it for everything after Evernote became buggy. Evernote has been fixed, but it was unusable for creating new notes for about over a month.

    Onenote is especially great if you grew up on creating an outline as a way for note taking. It has lots of subdivisions:
    Notebook > Section > Pages

  • I edited my post cause originally I said Notes when I meant to say OneNote (Microsoft). I don’t remember if it’s free, or if I get it for free because I pay for office365 or whatever.
    But Evernote is similar and I’ve never had a need to pay for the premium. I was still able to take photos with my notes. and was never limited on the amount of notes. One thing I really like about it is that you have the option to convert photos to a scan type document to save space —like if you’re taking pictures of docs and receipts.

  • Google Keep App

  • I use iOS/MacOS built-in notes app, which automatically syncs in near real-time to all all devices. You can create checklists in it, which is super helpful. If your family is all Apple based you should be able to share a note to them for editing.

    I've never used it with notes shared to other people, only my own account. But this article says it can be done:

    Same here. But I do use Google tasks for my own reminders. I keeps lists for things like groceries, other shopping, to do, songs I want to learn, car issues to look at, all in that one app.

    Simple but effective:

    1. Create list with checkboxes toggled on.
    2. When you put an item in your basket, tick the box for that item - ticked item jumps to bottom of list.
    3. When preparing for a new shop, untick all items you need - they jump to top of list. Go to step 2 and start ticking off items when you are shopping again.

    You can tag items, create a note for each list, add images, links etc.

    Hey, that's a good one. Forgetting I'd heard of it, thought I'd check it out and found lists I created years ago on a Samdung phone. It's probably even better than Google Tasks for a list app.

  • The thing I like about iCloud notes is updates happen almost literally in realtime. I can type on one device and see the characters appear live on the other. I don't know if it works as well between accounts, but it sure is handy across my devices.

    And it syncs across all your devices in real time (I use it on Windows, Android and iOS) ... if I make a change in a document\Keep note on one device, it updates on another device within a second usually. I've seen this when editing Google Keep, Google Docs etc on multiple devices simultaneously.

  • We use OurGroceries with the Alexa integration.

    +1 for Keep. We have been using it as a simple, real-time-updated family grocery list for years, among other things. "I'm leaving the office now, if you want anything from the supermarket just add it to Keep", that kind of thing. We also use it during shopping to divvy up the work and see what items the other has clicked off the list.

  • I use a reminders list (Apple phone of course) and most of my items are added by voice (Siri). I do my best remembering in the car so can shout items at it will driving :) I don't share it with the fam but as mentioned above these can be shared.

  • I've been using ShopShop for years and it is awesome. A purpose-built app is so much more convenient when it is well designed. It is maintained and free!! Not sure where all the negative reviews are coming from. Meets my needs, but they are simple. Make a list and go to the supermarket twice a month, lol. It can sync shopping lists to dropbox, so that would be one way to family share lists.

  • There's the Grocery List Bot for Telegram

  • I really like to use https://whisk.com - It is primarily a recipe scanner and database. In my opinion it is the best recipe scanner to scan recipes from the web. It can scale the ingredients of your recipes to the desired number of portions and then you can add them to a shopping list. You can have multiple shopping lists and they can be shared. You even can have you family recipe community and a shared meal planner. For my family it fulfills all our needs.

  • What a wonderfully mundane question! 🙂
    We use To Do.

    Yah shared Notes built into iOS works great for this. No fuss, no muss! (ps. what is a muss?)

  • edited July 2022

    Having tried several of the seemingly infinite list of todo apps, I find myself always getting back to the stock notes app. I can access it on desltop via icloud, can share notes, and it basically just works.
    Wish apple put the same effort into the voice memos app, but maybe they can’t afford developers for that /s

  • I wonder no one mentioned Bring. It’s multiplatform, easy to use and so far free without ads.
    I even persuaded my girlfriend to use it and she’s very “analouge” person - notes, calendar, recipes,… everything on paper. We use it for years, synchronization AFAIK never failed (but of course it depends on the quality of the internet connection). We use to quite often split in supermarket and take items each on it’s own and we even use it to check in realtime if the other one haven’t yet checked some item 😄 in that case, sometime the sync is not immediate but that’s quite an extreme use.

  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • @krassmann currently trying out whisk on your recommendation. @skrat do you know what the iaps are on bring? There’s a monthly or yearly iap.

    Honestly, can’t even fine the option for premium in the app, so can't really tell what should be the premium features. It's weird it's not annoying me with purchase every moment like every other app.
