Two gallons of milk. Zero toilet paper.
Everybody bought the same thing because nobody knew what the others had already got. Roaminder gives the whole household one shopping list, live on every phone.
One list for the house
Everyone in the family shares a single active list. Anyone can add to it. When someone buys something, it's crossed off on everyone's phone within seconds.
Claim it. Tap an item to say you're on it. Everyone else sees your name next to it, so nobody else grabs it.
Reminders for everyone. Family items remind whoever happens to be near the right store. Whoever's closest gets the milk.
Saved family lists for the things you buy together every week, and a Family Pantry that learns what the house runs out of.
Shared lists: for everyone else
Potluck, camping trip, birthday party. Make a shared list and send the link. People open it in a browser, pick their name and claim what they're bringing. No app, no account, nothing to install.
Add the when, where and who, and anyone can save it to their calendar. Nobody shows up with the third bowl of coleslaw.
Common questions
What's a good shared grocery list for a family?
Roaminder's Family list is one live list for the whole household. Anyone can add, anyone can claim, and anything bought comes off everyone's list. It also reminds whoever is near the right store.
Can my partner cross things off too?
Yes. Anyone in the family can add, claim and complete items, and everyone sees it straight away.
Do people need the app to use a shared list?
Not for a shared list. They open the link in a browser, pick their name and claim items. Family lists are for people who have the app.
What's the difference between a Family list and a Shared list?
Family is the people you live with, and it's always on. A Shared list is for one occasion, like a potluck or a trip, with anyone you send it to.
Can I add to the family list by voice?
Yes. Tell Roami, "add apples to the family list."
Can I see our lists on a computer?
Yes. Sign in at roaminder.com/mylist.
Does it cost anything?
No. Family and shared lists are free. They need a free account, which is just your email and a six-digit code. No password.
