Shopping

ParentsChildreniPhoneAndroid

Family → Shopping. Everyone writes what's missing; whoever is in the shop ticks it off, and the others see it within seconds.

The shopping list
Family → Shopping: a list per shop, “Often” suggestions, and what's already in the cart

Shops

The list is split by shop — "Supermarket", "Pharmacy", "Pet shop"… The chips at the top switch between them; the number is how many things are still to buy there.

Adding a shop
+ Add a shop: a name and an icon
  • + Add a shop — a name and an icon. Parents only.
  • Hold a shop's chip — rename it, change its icon, or delete it (with everything on it).

Adding things

Write in Add an item and press Enter. The amount can come first or last:

  • 2 milk → milk, amount 2
  • 1 kg apples → apples, amount 1 kg
  • eggs x 12 → eggs, amount 12
Shops, the field and the “Often” row
The shops on top, then the field with 🎤, then what you buy often

Each item gets an icon by itself (🥛 🍌 🍞…), when Lanibo knows the word. The coloured dot on the right is the person who added it.

  • 🎤 in the field — say what you need instead of typing it.
  • Often: — what your family buys most, one tap to add again. While you type, it shows only the matches.
  • Things stay in the order they were added.

In the shop

You doIt happens
Tap an itemInto the cart: it moves to In the cart, crossed out. Tap again to take it out.
Hold an itemChange its name or amount.
Swipe leftDelete it.
Clear (next to "In the cart")Removes everything bought.
In the cart
Ticked things go to “In the cart”; “Clear” removes them

Everyone sees the ticks at once — so two people in two shops don't buy the same thing.

Share with someone without the app

Sharing a list
Share: one link per person, for this shop only

For grandma, a babysitter, a neighbour: Share makes a secret link to one shop's list.

  1. Open the shop's list and tap Share.
  2. Write who it's for ("Grandma") and tap Make.
  3. Send the link any way you like — Viber, WhatsApp, SMS.

With the link they see this list, tick things off and add new ones — in the browser, without an account. Nothing else of your family. Delete the link and it stops working at once.

Questions

Can I have several lists for the same shop? Make two shops with different names — e.g. "Supermarket" and "Party".

Do I see who bought what? The dot shows who added an item; the list in the cart is shared, so everyone sees what's been bought.

Does it work on the family tablet? Yes — the same list on every phone and tablet, updated live.
