Pros and cons of Grocery Mate - Easy to Use Shopping List app for iPhone and iPad
Grocery Mate - Easy to Use Shopping List app good for
Nice features, like grocery categories, and pre-prepared lists to choose from. Easy to cross item when purchased and restore if necessary
super easy interface, multiple list, customizable and FREE! no ads are a plus! price calculator with totals. yehey finally found a grocery list i can keep!
I use this App to keep my different shopping lists organized. I make a list for each store I go too. It keeps track of whats on sale at each store.
The best grocery app Ive ever used. I like that you can see your entire list even after youve marked items as in your cart
Great little app to help with organization and efficiency! Calculates costs/list, great interface, easy to use. Very efficyive
Never really used a shopping list before, too much hassle, now I can easily add things as I remember them and swipe them off while I shop and listen to podcasts. Makes life easier and looks cute too!
Some bad moments
The functionality of the app is severely limited. You cant add sections of the grocery store to make for easier shopping for example. So simple yet its not there and it makes it a frustrating app to use.
POPUPS! OMG so many POPUPS!!! Why!?! I dont want to share with Facebook that I need to pick up condoms. WHY ARE YOU EVEN ASKING ME!?!?! So infuriating.
Save yourself. Dont download it.
This app is lovely and useful. Our household used it all the time without any flaws.
Then the new update came out last week and since then it has:
1. Wiped all our data and grocery lists.
2. Made it inaccessible to sync.
3. Made it a very big challenge to try to sign up through the app, all kinds of error messages.
4. We even tried to create a new account to no avail, all kinds of authorization errors.
5. No indication as to how long this will last as there is no news on the support site.
Good luck and although it is free, time is money and right now I advise moving on to a better product unless you want to be frustrated by constantly losing data and not being able to sync your lists or even set-up an account.
This app might be very useful, but I cant look at the misspelling of "vegetables" (vegatables?!?!) all the time. So Im going with a different grocery list app.
Absolutely loved this app - until the last update. Now I dont have the ability to select which category/section the grocery item falls under! (so if the item isnt in the database, the item is auto-listed on the other category)
The app is cool. Very polished interface with easy navigation. But I would really appreciate if you guys could add Japanese currency to the app also. Otherwise, the app will be almost useless. The CoinKeeper add in the cost screen is very annoying... Correct that and Ill give 5 stars to the app...
I use this every day. After trying over a dozen shopping apps this suit me the best. However, I REALLY would like to be able to rearrange my lists. PLEASE add this feature! My important lists need to be at the top! Other than that its great and user friendly!
