About
This is a web-app; it is not the same as a native app like WhatsApp or Instagram, where you download software on your device
It is a responsive website that behaves as an app on your device when you add it to the home screen
This means that it will act as a regular app that requires an internet connection, but without taking up space on your device's storage
It can be used by an infinite amount of people simultaneously and they will be making changes to the same shopping list as you, which is perfect when using within households
However, be careful as this means that everyone using the same URL of this app will be modifying the same list
Sharing your URL
When you share your URL with someone, they will have the same editing access as you
If the URL is shared among too many people, and they are making unwanted changes, please contact me and I can change it for you at any time
This will stop everyone currently using this app and you will be able to re-add the new URL to your home screen
Please note, changing the URL will not affect the current contents of the list - they will stay as they are, unless someone with access has deleted them
No internet?
If you are going to be in a location without an internet connection, open the app in an area with connection beforehand, and leave it running in the background
You will be able to view your shopping list and delete items, so you can tick off items as you shop, however when the app is reloaded, the items will still be there as the app cannot sync while the device is offline
You can screenshot the list before reloading the app, or use it as a checklist after your shop to make sure you got everything you need
Seasonal Images
New Update (May 2024)
Introducing the first major update, where you can now switch up the cat image above the shopping list
When on, the cat will change what it's doing every 30 minutes, with its actions based on the current time of day, and also react to special days such as your Birthday or Christmas
If this app is used on more than one device, the image will be the same across all devices
If you have any questions or issues at all, no matter how small, please reach out at any time and I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can
