πŸ› οΈ How does it work?

  • You can add as many Smart Grocery Lists as needed.

  • When adding items to the Grocery List, the feature will automatically sort your groceries into their respective categories.

  • You can even customize the items so they'll fall into whichever aisle you choose!

  • A default list will be created until you choose to create one of your own, to which you can simply add as many items as you wish.

Note: Smart Grocery Lists are a mobile feature that will sync to the web app but without the categories. These lists will not be included in the Calendar, My Day and All Tasks/7 Days views as the items do not have any reminder/due dates associated with them and are not considered as standard tasks.
