How to Cancel Out of Milk

I had been looking for a new app to organize and make a grocery list for awhile. I have a family a 5 so our list is huge by the time I need to go shopping. This app categorizes the foods and other household essentials into their proper areas. So when I’m at the store and in the dairy area for example I can get everything I need from that area easily. You are also able to easily check off your items or delete them from the list entirely. Also there’s an option in the app where you can keep your phone screen awake while you shop. I love this because I frequently need to use my calculator to keep a total. The app does let you price each item and you also can choose to add sales tax for a total however I prefer to price in store because typically I don’t know what the exact price is. Finally, this app also includes a pantry list and a to do list. I really recommend this app to definitely anyone who has a large family and that is looking for a good app to keep things organized!

So glad to have learned of this a few years ago and have told others about it. You almost always have your phone with you, so you can add to your shopping list wherever you are and whenever something pops into your mind. And since you almost always have your phone with you, you’re going to have it with you at the store, instead of a piece of paper sitting at home on your counter! There are many great features, some I’m still discovering. Probably my favorite is the availability of having different lists for different stores. Oh, and the fact that you just check off each item as you put it in your cart, which makes it available for the next time is amazing! This has made shopping much better. Wish it had been around when my six children were all home.

My ONLY suggestion is to add a “due date” and “completion date” for items on to do list. My husband and I share this app and it’s literally changed the way we grocery shop and stay organized. We utilize additional features to add more specialized list for our specific needs. No more forgetting. No more duplication of efforts. I’ve always believed having a grocery list not only obviously reminds you to get what you need, but if you stick to ONLY what’s on your list, you can control impulse buying. We have list for movies we want to watch, books to read, music, camping gear list, fishing gear list and most recently Christmas list! This app is a game changer and other shopping apps I’ve used can’t touch this one!

I’m a new user...as in, I’m actually still trying to figure out the whole system. So far, I like it. I was a GroceryIQ user for probably 6-8 years, and I believe that app is being discontinued. This is the closest thing I’ve been able to find to that app in terms of store, category and item organization. I have two requests/suggestions, however. The first is that a weight option be added to pricing. I use the price by weight tool for cheeses, meats, and some produce. Being able to price things according to weight will help keep the accuracy of my overall budget when shopping. My second suggestion is a reverse info input on barcode scanning- right now, from what I can tell, the scanner either knows the barcode or doesn’t. The feature to add UPC codes to the item info is helpful, but it would also be neat to be able to scan and, if the barcode is unknown, immediately be able to fill in the necessary information for the product. That way the user doesn’t have to manually add the UPC numbers. So far, this is the most comprehensive shopping list app that I have been able to find, and I appreciate the features it already has- especially the option to add or remove sales tax (we don’t have sales tax on groceries in CA). If the developers are looking for new features to add, I think the price-by-weight and reverse barcode input would be two great ones to add.

I’ve been using this app for about 3 years & it’s the best app available for making grocery lists. No other apps do all that Out Of Milk does. Unfortunately, for the past 6 months or so whenever I am making a list, the app will just suddenly delete an item. Sometimes it’ll even add the item to a different list that I’m not even working on. I’m a very forgetful person which is why I make lists so it’s really frustrating bc if an item gets deleted, & I don’t notice it, I end up not buying that item & have to make a second trip to the store. I’ve had to resort to writing a physical list then copying into the app... which sorta defeats the purpose of even using it. I’ve tried uninstalling then reinstalling, & have also tried making another acc. Don’t know what else to do. I really love this app & there aren’t any others like it so I’d hate to have to stop using it. If it wasn’t for this problem, I’d certain give it 5 stars. Please, PLEASE fix this issue! Thank you.
