If you just had a shared shopping list that everyone in the family could add things to, life would be a bit easier, wouldn’t it?

  8. Just use the app "Bring". This is the best shopping app there is. And it does not rely on only having an iPhone. And it is specifically designed for shopping. And it is swiss quality

  9. great video! for android devices, I personally use Google Keep and also share it with someone else – works beautifully and it's free if you have a gmail account as it's part of the google solution apps
