Being able to organize your list in the order you want (to match the layout of the store)

Madison Laskowski 11 years ago updated by lutz 4 years ago 34

I can use the ability to make different lists (love it!) to make lists for different stores I need to shop. But I also would love to be able to choose the order of items in my list so that I can organize them per the layout of each store.

Option to name color categories.

Patrick Domenig 11 years ago updated by Sandra 7 years ago 26

In our family we use the colors for different food categories. For example red means meat, green means vegetables, orange means cleaning and bathroom stuff, blue is all milk products. However, since I am not able to name the colors my kids keep asking me what color means what category.

Rearranging separate lists

Nathanael Young 11 years ago updated by Marsha 10 months ago 33
Should be able to change the order that the separate lists appear, not just the order of items on a list
Answer

At the moment the "Pin top" feature is available for the iOS app only (the newest free version: https://itunes.apple.com/app/app-name/id491297400?ls=1&mt=8). If you are using any other app for iOS, you can switch to the newest one by installing it and logging in to your existing account in the app – the app will switch to Pro (if you are a Pro user) and all your lists will get synced.


We will possibly add the feature to the app for Android as well, however, unfortunately, cannot tell for sure when it happens.

Ability to sort deleted items to make it easier to find for reuse

Arthur Joyce 11 years ago updated by Kent Pavelka 8 years ago 9

There's no sense in retyping a deleted item that is used over and over again. But finding the item in the deleted list is really difficult if the list is long. The ability to sort alphabetically would be of great use in saving time and making the app easier to use.

Price column feature.

Refael Avez 11 years ago updated by timparimpa 6 years ago 11

A way to add the price of the product. 

It could be very useful to add this information, it lets u know the estimated price of the product  and can calculate the total amount of the purchase.

Alexa, Amazon Echo, IFTTT integration

larry reinstein 8 years ago updated by eric 6 years ago 33

I love the buymeapie app. However, now that we own Amazon Echo we use the Alexa shopping list when we think of something we need. It is very convenient to be able to speak out loud to our Echo (always listening) and "ask Alexa" for items that come to mind. Alexa then adds it to the Alexa Shopping List. However, for keyboard entry and while we are shopping we much prefer to use the buymeapie App.


One of the competing shopping list Apps already integrates with Alexa via IFTTT.Com. Whatever gets added to the Alexa shopping list automatically gets placed on the other shopping list App. Is Buymeapie looking into adding this connectivity as well??

This seems like a great idea.


THanks
Answer

There are good news for the lucky users of the smart Amazon Alexa devices! Now it has become possible to manage shopping lists not only on a mobile device or a PC but also with the help of a smart personal assistant developed by Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0721QFT7Q/

colors, new button

Lieselot Kinable 11 years ago updated by polyanchev 8 years ago 10

More colors for the products and a 'delete all' button. I know I can delete unwanted items by swiping them but sometimes I want to clear everything, like when I changed from Dutch to English on my iPhone , everything changed to english....  maybe when you thick them of you can select 'delete' as well
