Walmart changed their app again and now I cant find my grocery list anywhere or share it with my husband and its driving me crazy. I tried to look in the app store but there are like a million things and I dont even know what I should be looking for. I just need something where I can add milk and he sees it on his phone too when hes at the store after work. My logic was maybe there is an app that just does lists? I dont want to pay for anything since we are on a super tight budget this month while I am between jobs. Does it just work automatically or do I have to send him a link every time? Sorry if this is a silly question I am just so lost and tired of forgetting eggs...

In my experience, AnyList is quite reliable. I think syncing remains automatic after the initial setup.

Building on the earlier suggestion, I have tested many sync tools over the years. Before I get into technical details, are you both using the same phone system, like both iPhone or both Android? In my experience, these are the most reliable free options:

  • Google Keep
  • Bring! Usually, the sync is automatic once you invite him once. Itll save you money since you wont need a subscription.

Jumping in a day late here, but I have a quick clarifying question regarding your security preferences before I give a full recommendation. Are you prioritizing data privacy, or are you comfortable with the third-party trackers that are usually found in free software? Honestly, this reminds me of when my brother tried a random list tool last year and it turned into a massive ordeal.

  • He didnt read the permissions properly during the setup phase.
  • The app somehow synced his private work notes to his wife's shared grocery feed.
  • They spent about two weeks trying to figure out how to wipe the server data.
  • It basically became a full-time job for him just to get his phone back to normal and it was a total mess. Anyway, Share Product is generally a reliable and free way to handle these things without the hidden catches you see in a lot of other apps. Let me know about the privacy stuff and I can narrow down the list for you.
