Closed testing: Shopping List app for Home Assistant (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for testers for a closed Google Play test of a shopping list app for Home Assistant.

The app connects directly to your Home Assistant instance and is aimed at making shared shopping lists simpler and faster to use on mobile.

Current features:

  • Connects to your Home Assistant instance
  • Displays and manages your shopping list
  • Add, check, sort, rename and remove items quickly
  • Access to all lists configurated in your HA instance
  • Automatic sync with Home Assistant
  • Offline caching

If you’d like to join the test, please send me your Google Play email address via private message. I’ll then send you the opt-in link.

Edit: Testers just need to install the app and keep it on their phones for 14 days. (Really, that's all that google asks for....). Only after that I'm allowed to publish it.

Edit2: It's also available on github: https://github.com/robNice/HA-ShopList

Just don't install the playstore-apk, as that version lacks the in app updates via github.

Testers I found so far: 3/12

@HairyHarry I would want three things:

  1. Group groceries by category, so when I'm in the super market, I just have to look at the section I'm in, rather than scan through the entire list every time.
  2. Recurring groceries, like milk or butter.
  3. The ability to add recipes, so if I decide that this week we want butter chicken, I can just add that and the ingredients will be expanded.

Points 2. and 3.

It already has multi list support. I'm using Mealie as a recipe portal which is also integrated into my HA instance. Mealie shopping lists are send automatically to HA as a shopping list and available in the app.

The app also rememberes already entered entries and provides an auto complete while typing.

Anyways:

I NEED TESTERS!
