Any tips on a "grocery list" app to replace Keep? Need something that can sync between mine and my wife's phones - E2EE nice to have but not strictly required.

A lot of the Keep replacements I see posted are just fancy text editors full of markdown formatting junk and I just want a good working checklist that moves checked items away.

    I just started using KitchenOwl for this. It can be a little clunky, but it suits my purposes well.
    Pros:

    • self hostable
    • multiple grocery lists
    • categories and sorting are customizable (so I can put the categories in the order I shop in)
    • sync across devices near instantaneous
    • web and desktop interface

    Cons:

    • can be a little slow to add items. You can't just add text, you have to wait until the search is complete
    • does not automatically combine the same item together
    • occasionally when I switch to the app and mark an item complete, it doesn't take. Only happens on the first item on open and I just click it away again, so not a huge deal.

    I softly suggest using a messaging app for this, like a signal thread where you delete items as they're picked up.
