The shopping list fits a phone

The list you actually carry round a supplier now fits the screen you carry it on, and a row is marked bought by holding it.

September 10, 2026

The shopping list on a phone, its controls held under the top bar and a hint to tap a row to update it or hold it to mark it got. Cold brew concentrate reads Got 2 gal, and House espresso beans is being held, its fill part way across the row.

It was built for a desk

The shopping list is used standing in an aisle holding a phone, and it was laid out like a table on a monitor. Names were squeezed to a few characters, the price and the quantity competed for the same space, and marking something bought meant hitting a small control next to a smaller one.

What changed

  • Rows are readable at phone width, with the item name given the room and the numbers underneath rather than beside.
  • Hold a row to mark it bought, which is hard to do by accident and easy to do with one hand.
  • The price shown is per the unit you buy in, not the unit you count in, because that is the number on the shelf edge.
  • Something you have already checked in is not also still due.

What people asked for

  • Make the shopping list usable on a phone in a shop.
  • Stop the item name being squeezed out by the price.
