Review summary

Grosh Intelligent Grocery List is praised for its robust feature set, including recipe integration, barcode scanning, and Pebble watch compatibility, with good synchronization and developer support. However, multiple users report significant performance issues like lag, slow syncing, and occasional bugs that hinder usability. Recent UI changes have introduced more scrolling, which some find inconvenient. The barcode database's limitations and inflexible category management also detract from user experience. Despite these downsides, it remains a feature-rich app favored by many for grocery organization.

Pros

Well-organized grocery list and recipe features that transfer to the list
Barcode scanner feature available
Works well with Pebble watch and offers good developer support
App synchronizes nearly instantly and supports multiple languages
Offers more features than most other shopping list apps

Cons

App is extremely slow and laggy, impacting usability
Frequent syncing and saving issues that interrupt workflow
User interface updates led to increased scrolling and less efficient item viewing
Barcode database limited; misses common products
Limited flexibility such as inability to rename categories and issues with editing items

2024-04-20	Ji*****	Used to be okay. Sometimes it forgot to save/sync added items, which I can accept. It was challenging to edit a spelling mistake, and small things like that, which I also can accept... But recent update made it look more "modern" (read: added more rounded corners and a lot more of empty space) now I'll have to scroll when there are just a few items which I didn't need to before, makes the app less helpful to use and just more annoying. Time for another app!

2024-02-02	Ia*****	Can't change the names of categories, and there are other little inflexible things in here that I can't use. Didn't have time to play with it enough to find out what they are and wrap them down here, just too much in a box for me. Won't likely be trying it again but thank you

2020-12-04	De*****	A reliable shopping list app with more features than I'll ever need. Worth my subscription (and I don't subscribe to many services). Great developer support too. And the Pebble watch app still works, even though Pebble has been abandoned for years!

2019-09-29	A *****	I just downloaded this app and like it because of the scan feature. Unfortunately it doesn't even recognize the barcode for Poland Spring water. I consider this to be the most common Spring water probably in the world and it's not in their bar code base. Somewhat of a downfall.

2019-09-23	A *****	Has all the functions I wanted: 1) well organised grocery list, 2) recipies that transfer to list and 3) barcode scanner. Problem is, it is super slow, it can't keep up as I type in my recipes, when I swipe to delete from list, I can't see it do it. Buggy - added same recipe 3 times. Sooo close, gutted this app is too slow to use, tried to tough it out but couldn't handle it, too rough. I would pay for a smoother app.
