I’m looking for an Android app that allows my household to easily share and edit a grocery/pantry list. It would be great if the app could:
- Allow multiple people to view and edit grocery and pantry lists
- Automatically add items to the grocery list when they drop below a set minimum quantity in the pantry list
- Send notifications when the list is updated by someone
- Allow users to add expiration dates for fridge/pantry items, and provide reminders when items are close to expiring
Some other useful features would be:
- Barcode scanning to quickly add items
- Categorization for where items are stored (pantry, fridge, freezer etc)
Does an app like this exist for Android? I haven’t been able to find one that has all the functions I’m looking for. If you know of one, please let me know! Or if there are any that come close I’d love to check them out. Making grocery lists and keeping the kitchen stocked feels like a constant chore, so anything to make it smoother would be great.
Previously I used a Matrix group chat and currently I’m using Our Groceries Shopping List.
If you’re comfortable with self-hosting you might want to have a look at Grocy: https://grocy.info/
Also supports barcode scanning via https://github.com/Forceu/barcodebuddy, although I’m a bit confused… The official android app claims to support barcode scanning: https://github.com/patzly/grocy-android
