## Review summary

Users praise Simple Grocery List for its simplicity, multi-list support, easy item rearrangement, and price/quantity tracking, with a low-cost, ad-free pro option. However, the app suffers from a recurring disruptive 'list changed on another device' message, general glitches and slow performance, and concerns about infrequent updates and removed features. Restoration/purchase issues and occasional ads in the free version also detract from the experience for some users.

### Pros

- Supports multiple lists and easy organization
- Can search the database, add custom items, and rearrange items
- Price and quantity fields available for items
- Low-cost pro version with ad-free experience and good value

### Cons

- Persistent 'list changed on another device' pop-up disrupts use
- Glitches and bugs (errors, sluggishness, checkmarks not working)
- Lack of updates; some features removed or not maintained in updates
- Issues with restoring purchases/themes after reinstall
- Ads in the free version and some frustration with paid features not being consistently ad-free
