Overview

For the MVP, Grocery Savvy includes one grocery list that you can use and update anytime. You can rename the list, add and remove items, and switch to In-Store Mode while shopping.

Using Your List

Tap the List button in the bottom menu to open your grocery list.

From this screen, you can:

  • Edit the list name
  • Tap Add Item to add foods or household items
  • Tap In-Store Mode to check off items while you shop

Adding Items

There are several ways to add items to your list:

  • Search — Type an item name to find it quickly via Food Search.
  • Browse — Explore foods from the Home screen by category (for example, Fruits & Veggies, Meat & Seafood, or Pantry) or search by nutrient or dietary preference.
  • Barcode scan — Use Barcode Scanning to scan foods, learn more about them, and add them to your list.
  • Recently viewed items — Add foods you recently searched or scanned.
  • From food details — Open a food to learn more about it, review tags/preferences, and add it to your list or Meals.

If you can't find an item, tap Add on the search screen to create a custom item and add it to your grocery list.

Organizing Your List

Items are grouped by category in your list. When adding an item, you can choose:

  • Category — Choose where the item belongs (for example, Pantry & Canned)
  • Quantity and unit — Set how much you need
  • Note (optional) — Add a reminder like "organic" or a preferred brand

You can tap the Notes/Edit icon on an item to update its details later, including quantity and notes.

Removing Items

To remove items, tap the Delete icon in the header, then select one or more items to remove from your list.

In-Store Mode

When you're at the store, tap In-Store Mode:

  • Check off items as you add them to your cart.
  • Use your list as a simple checklist while shopping in store.

After Shopping

Your list stays available so you can keep updating it, add more items later, or shop from it again.
