★★★★★ "Scam. For 99¢ a month, you get a shopping list that won’t give you ads. 99¢ A MONTH. You need to subscribe to make a shopping list. What a joke." - Zachonaut

Have to watch ad to access list
Used to like this pretty well, it’s no better than a sheet of paper, but convenient to have on phone. Unfortunately, you now have to watch a long preview of a game every time you want to use it. You can’t x out until the meter is done running. Unfortunately, the latest apps they are using for click bait is one that says I’ve been hacked and need to download their app. I don’t appreciate a legit app pushing me to take bad apps.
Simple but not easy
I started out living this app and now I am so so sick of it. Any time I open it to start a list ads appear that won’t let you on the app. In the beginning you could close the app and continue your list but no more . I would recommend never downloading this one. It’s less problematic to just write your list on scrap paper.
Dirty adds
Dirty adds, I had to delete and was no longer able to keep the app due to nudity and very dirty pictures popping on for adds
Scam ad pop up freezes phone
I used to like this app until an ad started showing up that takes up the whole screen, freezes your phone, and sounds an alarm like a fire alarm going off. (It says “storage full”). Only way to stop it is to turn your phone off. So I stopped using this app and just downloaded a different list app. Can’t imagine why the developers are doing that kind of ad, no quicker way to get rid of a user.
Scam
For 99¢ a month, you get a shopping list that won’t give you ads. 99¢ A MONTH. You need to subscribe to make a shopping list. What a joke.
Ads are obnoxious
Too many ads on that are hard to close
I’ll have to delete this and use something else

Ads
Looked good. Started making a list. Needed to change the name so went back and immediately hit with an unskippable ad. I close the app before that even finished.
Less than 30 seconds into the app.
Automatic 1 star.

Automatic 1 star.
non stoppable ad for some other type of app.
keep greeting an ad for some app to go hiking. could not get rid of the pop up and fill in the shopping list . going to dump the app now.
Okay app too many ads
Got the app to quickly jot down items/ideas. App has so many ads you forget why you opened it!
Spying on my list?
Loved using this app for shopping, but recently I’ve been seeing items being added to my list that I didn’t add. At first I just deleted them off but now that it’s still happening, it makes me wonder, whose list is being added to mine..?
Payment Required on Android and Apple
I paid for app on Android. Apple requires me to pay again to remove ads. It will not let me login.
I’m not paying twice.

Very basic
This is a very basic shopping list app with few features. Sorting is a pain. When you check an item off the list it does not drop down/off, it stays in place, and you have to scroll through the whole entire list for needed items. With a few clicks, you can sort checked items to the bottom, but it is a manual process, not automatic. I use this app for two days before finding a much better app.
Ease of use
It has a few basic functions that work if you only want to do what they want you to do. Cannot figure out a way to customize things or rename an existing list without deleting it and starting over from scratch.
Good but then the Ap locks you out
This was the perfect list program for me… until I was locked out but advertisements. The Ap would not allow me to get out of a pop up Ad. I had to literally restart my phone to get back to my list. I can understand having ads in a free Ap, however if it’s this much trouble to use it I’m going to look for another solution. Two stars because without the Ad locking one out it is a great list Ap.
