Watchlist+Shopping

WatchList + Shopping puts your grocery list on your Apple Watch, so you can shop hands-free. No more fishing your phone out of your pocket in the middle of the frozen food aisle. Just glance at your wrist, tap to check items off, and keep moving. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Most apps are free because your attention (and your data) is what they're actually selling. WatchList + Shopping costs $0.99 once. That's it. No subscription. No ads. No tracking. Your shopping list is your business, and we'd like to keep it that way. We don't even have servers to store your data on. Everything lives in your personal iCloud account. IPHONE + APPLE WATCH Build your list on iPhone. Check items off hands-free on Apple Watch. Changes sync both ways in real time. SHARE WITH FAMILY Tap the share button and send a link via Messages or AirDrop. Everyone on the list can add items and check them off in real time. Great for making sure everyone gets their items onto the list. QUICK START Tap a store you've shopped before and the app fills your list with the items you usually buy there. Uncheck what you don't need and go. No more rebuilding the same list every week. LIST MERGE Two lists for the same store? Swipe right and merge them into one. Duplicates are skipped automatically. STORE COLORS Every store gets its own color. On the main screen, inside the list, everywhere. Pick from the full color wheel to make it yours. BARCODE SCANNING Point your camera at any product barcode. The item name is looked up automatically and added to your list. SMART SUGGESTIONS Start typing and the app suggests items from your history. Re-add the same things you buy every week in seconds. IMPORT ANY LIST Paste text or photograph a handwritten list. The app reads it and adds items, skipping duplicates. DRAG TO REORDER Arrange items in aisle order. Arrange lists in whatever order you want. Your custom order syncs to Apple Watch. LOCK SCREEN WIDGET See your item count right on your lock screen. Tap to jump straight in. SIRI AND SHORTCUTS "Hey Siri, add oat milk to my shopping list." Works with the Shortcuts app too. WORKS OFFLINE Your lists are stored on your device. iCloud syncs in the background when you have a connection, but the app works fine without one. Same goes for Apple Watch. PRIVACY No account to create. Just sign in with the iCloud you already have. No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs phoning home. We don't know how many times you open the app or what you buy, and we don't want to. ONE-TIME PURCHASE $0.99. All features included. Every future update included. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no upsells. Supports Family Sharing, so you buy once and your whole family gets it too.

QUANTITY AND NOTES, RIGHT WHERE YOU ADD ITEMS Quantity and notes fields now sit alongside the item name when you add something, so you can jot down "2 gallons" or "the kind without seeds" without going back into the list to edit later. KEEP SCANNING After adding a scanned item, the camera reopens automatically so you can keep barcoding things in one pass. Tap Done when you're finished. RELIABLE SHARED-LIST NOTIFICATIONS The "+N new" badge on a shared list and the red number on the app icon now update as soon as someone else adds an item, instead of waiting for you to reopen the app. At a glance you'll know which list has changes. CLEARER SHARING ERRORS When sharing a list runs into trouble, you'll now see a plain-English message telling you what went wrong and what to do about it, instead of a wall of technical detail. The most common cause (a full iCloud account) now points you straight at how to free up space.
