Shared shopping list that everyone in the house can add to
A weekly shop grouped by aisle, shared with the rest of the household.
No account, no install. You get a link you can send to anyone.
Most households already have a shopping list. The problem is that it is on one person's phone, so the person who is actually in the shop is the one person who cannot see it.
This template is grouped by aisle so you are not walking back across the shop. Share the link with everyone at home and they can add things as they run out, rather than texting you while you are already at the till.
Because it updates live, two people can shop in the same supermarket without buying the same thing twice.
How to get the most out of it
Add things the moment you run out
The list only works if it is updated when someone finishes the milk, not when someone is standing in the shop. Keep the link pinned in your household chat so adding an item takes a few seconds.
Group items in the order you walk the shop
The sections follow a typical supermarket layout. Reorder them to match the shop you use most, and the trip becomes one walk round instead of doubling back.
Tick items off as they go in the trolley
Whoever is at home can see what has already been picked up and add anything that was forgotten before the shopper reaches the till.
Keep a standing list
Rather than starting fresh each week, untick everything after the shop. The things you always buy stay on the list, and you only add what is new.

Questions people ask
- How is this different from a note in a messaging app?
- A note is a wall of text that everyone edits over the top of. Here each item is a separate line you can tick off, and ticking it off updates everyone else's screen.
- Does everyone need to install something?
- No. The link opens in whatever browser they already have.
- Can I reuse the same list every week?
- Yes. Untick everything and the list is ready for the next shop, so you keep the items you always buy.
- Is the list private?
- A list is not listed publicly when you create it. Only people who have the link can open it.
