Grocery list and Plan my trip
Build your list and see where each item costs least. With Plus, plan the trip that saves the most, and Aisle Bot plans what to buy and where. All of it is in Aisle Intelligence 1.2. The grocery list is free.
Get version 1.2. Update Aisle Intelligence from the App Store and open Overview › Grocery list.
Start
Open your list
On Overview, a Grocery list card sits under your monthly spending. Tap it to open the list. There’s no account and no sign-in. The list is saved on your iPhone and is still there the next time you open the app.
Build it
Add items
Type it
Type an item, like “eggs”, and tap Done.
Pick from your receipts
Start typing something you’ve bought. Suggestions show the product with the last price you paid and where. Tap one to add that exact product.
Add your regular items
Tap Add your regular items to add everything you’ve bought on two or more trips. Items already on the list aren’t added twice.
Remove a line
Swipe a line to delete it, or tap Edit and delete from there.
See the price
Read the prices
Each item shows its lowest price and the store that has it. Under the item name, the list says where that price comes from:
Your price
What you paid, from your own receipts. For each store, the list uses the latest price you paid there.
Crowdsourced price
What shoppers near you paid. These show for Plus members who’ve added a ZIP code.
Pending more data
No store has a price for this item yet. It stays on your list, and a price appears once one is known.
Sold by weight
Items like produce or deli meat show a price per pound. They aren’t counted in trip totals, since the amount you buy varies.
A list price is what someone paid on a past trip. Stores change prices and run out of things, so check the price at the store.
Look closer
An item’s page
Tap any item to open its page.
- Quantity. Use the minus and plus buttons. The list then shows the count, like × 2, and the trip totals use it.
- Prices. Each store’s price, with the date and the exact product it was for.
- Compare. Choose what to compare across stores: the exact product from your receipts, or Each store’s version, which matches items with the same words at every store. Pick the one that fits how you shop.
Save on the trip, with Plus
Plan my trip
Plan my trip needs Plus. Without Plus, the button shows Included with Plus and opens the Plus tab. With Plus, tap Plan my trip at the bottom of your list, then choose a plan at the top of the screen:
1 stop
Your whole list at one store.
2 stops
Your list split between two stores, and what the second stop saves you.
Lowest prices
Each item at the store where it costs least, however many stops that takes.
What every plan shows
The total, the number of items and stops, and each stop with its items and subtotal.
What you save, with the math shown
Each plan compares itself with buying the same items at one store and says what you save. A Check line shows the subtraction, so you can see exactly where the number comes from. For example: these 31 items cost $142.86 at Store A, this plan costs $124.37, and you save $18.49 (Example figures).
- An item a store has no price for is listed separately and left out of that store’s comparison, so the savings compare like with like.
- Items with no price anywhere are listed under Pending more data.
- Items sold by weight show a price per pound and stay out of the totals.
With Plus
Plan with Aisle Bot
Aisle Bot plans what to buy and where to buy it. Planning needs Plus. The grocery list stays free.
From your list
Tap Plan my groceries with Aisle Bot. Aisle Bot looks at what you buy and how often, then says what to buy and where to buy it. It can plan even when your list is empty.
From your trip plan
On the trip plan, tap Plan this trip with Aisle Bot. Aisle Bot checks your list against your receipts and prices near you, then says where to buy what.
Your grocery plan
The answer opens as Your grocery plan. A button like Add 6 items to my list puts what Aisle Bot suggests on your list.
With Plus
Each time Aisle Bot plans, it counts as one of your Plus questions. Without Plus, the button opens the Plus tab. How Plus works
Aisle Bot can get things wrong. Check the product, the size and the price at the store.
In the aisles
At the store
- Check off each item as it goes in your cart. It moves to In the cart.
- When you’re done, tap Clear to remove the items in your cart from the list.
- Scan your receipt when you get home. Your new prices feed the next list.
Quick answers
Questions
Do I need Plus for the grocery list?
No. The grocery list is free and uses prices from your own receipts. Plus adds Plan my trip, prices from shoppers near you, and Aisle Bot plans what to buy and where. Plans available for $4.99 and $9.99.
Why does an item say Pending more data?
No store has a price for it yet, from your receipts or, with Plus, from shoppers near you. Scanning more receipts fills in more prices.
Why doesn’t a price match the shelf?
List prices come from past trips, and stores change prices. Plan my trip uses the latest price known at each store. Check the shelf price before you buy.
Does the grocery list send my data anywhere?
Your list is saved on your iPhone. With Plus, looking up prices from shoppers near you sends the item names or barcodes it looks up and the first three digits of your ZIP code, without your App Store subscription. A plan from Aisle Bot also sends the items on your list and the items you usually buy. The Plus privacy policy has the details.
The same product shows up twice. Why?
Stores print names differently, so one product can appear under two names from different receipts. Open the item and use Compare to pick the product you want compared at each store.
