Overview

A closer look at AI_GroceryList.

AI_GroceryList is a shopping and pantry app that can turn planned meals into a grocery list and organize items by store section. Its listing describes shared lists with live updates, a wishlist that can later be moved into a store-specific list, and barcode and label scanning tools. Recent version notes add shopping insights and a recipe-import extension that can receive shared photos, extract text, and use an on-device model when available. The current Apple listing requires iOS 26.2 or later, so device compatibility is unusually narrow. The US Apple lookup reports a US$0.99 download and no in-app purchase products, while some regional listing snapshots show different availability details; check the US storefront before installing. Apple’s unverified privacy label says no data is collected. The developer does not publish a clearly linked privacy policy on the listing, so treat AI, photo, and sharing data flows as a point to verify before use.
