Need help - doesn’t print
I downloaded this app, filled the pantry. But this program does me no good if I can’t print the list for my husband to take to the store. I know you can share, not my husband way of doing things. If not able to print, I’ll have to delete and go with a more usable program for our needs.
Won’t sync with my phone
So I spent 30 minutes moving my information from Shopping List over to this app and now it won’t sync with my phone. There is a cover-up on the screen (don’t have an account yet? Sign up )which is on top of the buttons to push for “use your existing online profile”…so I can’t click to use my existing profile with Apple! Can no one make something that’s easy to use? Doesn’t have landscape mode, so I can’t rotate phone and access the buttons
Doesn’t work for sharing
Great for making lists for myself, but the account login doesn’t work and the primary reason I wanted it was so my wife and I could share lists and add things to them so that when either one of us went to the store we could get everything. On both of our phones we just get errors whenever we try to log in. We’ve tried creating new accounts, updating passwords, etc, nothing has worked. Great as a list creator, but I can do that with any note tool, the advertised benefit here is being able to sync, and it doesn’t.
Loss of Customization
You can no longer move individual entries on the grocery list by grabbing and holding to move to the position that you choose. It will merely return to the location that the app placed it when the food item was created.
Cant open list sent from other ppl
Not bad app but not working for me.
A Sad Change
I have loved this app for a long time. BUT in the last couple of months the Category item has not been working and seems to place most items consistently in the “other” category. And the refreshing from another device also changes the category of items. The app is using too much time to redo lots of items. Maybe it is my up to date iOS, but I doubt it. Of this continues, I guess it is time to search for another app.
Constantly Crashes
Used this app for quite some time now and really makes grocery runs so much easier. However I’ve noticed over the course of the past few months that it’s been crashing constantly (sometimes within minutes of reopening). This has become highly disruptive and wish that this were addressed.
Edit: thought I hit submit. Wrote this initially years ago and still crashes. Also freezes for minutes on end which is really disruptive especially while in the store.

Cannot create a login profile without Meta
I was excited about organizing my Barton’s shopping lists, and having them shareable with my spouse. However, I could not share my list until I signed in, and could not set up a login profile without connecting the app to my Facebook or Apple account. That seems ridiculous for a shopping list app. No thank you.
