    Record what you buy

  3. Write your recipes

    With recipes and sales, the plan can work out what you really use.

    Write your recipes

  4. Say how each item keeps

    In Shopping list, open Item settings. Say how long it keeps and set a pack size if it has one.

    Say how each item keeps

  5. Build the list

    Choose 7 days or 14 days and press Build the list. Dry goods go on the big trip, fresh food on a top-up.

    Build the list

Every day

  • Build the list before you shop.
  • Check the confidence on each line and change what you know better.
  • Share the list, then tick what you bought.

What you see

You get the quantities, the expected cost and the trips. Change any line before you buy.

Time and effort

Item settings are done once per item. After that, a list is one press and a review.

Common mistakes

  • Expecting recipes and sales to drive everything on day one. An item you buy regularly needs 6 weeks of usage history. Before then, it follows your buying rhythm.
  • Following a line blindly. Read its confidence, and adjust for what you know is coming.
  • Expecting no waste and no stockouts. The list helps you plan, and it cannot promise that.
