True accordance with the new system

	New appearance. Intuitive and light. Thanks to the new design the app looks like it is a part of iOS 11. We made it appear lighter and added some air to its appearance.
Siri integration. Instant filling up your shopping list. To have a product added to the shopping list, just ask. This is the feature much anticipated by the users of the app.
Drag and Drop support in the app for iPad. Import as quick as a flick.	Drag an Drop has made shopping list import much easier and quicker. Came across a right product in a recipe blog or while chatting with your colleges? Just move it to your shopping list. You can drag the whole list of ingredients as well.

More than a smart shopping list

	Smart suggestions. Shopping experience more personal. The suggestions in the product adding section reflect your own daily habits. The app remembers which products you add to the lists more often and what you would rather buy with coffee or oranges.
Pin list. More handy than you can imagine. Any list can be dragged to top by a single tap. The feature has brought more order to your shopping lists.
Crossed-out sorting. Find necessary products in a wink.	The crossed-out products are now sorted alphabetically, which helps to find the necessary one and tap it back to the active list.And if the item has just been marked as bought, it is placed at the very top of the crossed-out section to be easily brought back to the list.
Haptic feedback. Elegance in the details.	The new version uses haptic feedback when a product is marked as bought. This is one more feature that prevents you from crossing out a product by mistake and an elegant detail that makes the app experience more enjoyable.

New look at Apple Watch

	Apple Watch complication support. Shopping lists available on the watch face. Quick access to your shopping lists directly from the watch face on your Apple Watch requires no additional movements to open the app.
Working time on Apple Watch. Shopping more convenient.	The app will stay on while you are in the store picking products – no need to open it over and over again.

Have you ever been sitting at your computer and all of a sudden remembered that you badly need to add something to your shopping list? Have you felt that urge – to put it down right away, without leaving your desktop, ON the desktop?

Or, maybe, the small keys of your smartphone keyboard drive you crazy when you are trying to enter a new product name?

Now you don’t need to make a reach for your smartphone and suffer hitting the tiny letters on the handy screen since we’ve released the “Buy Me a Pie! – Grocery Shopping List” app for your Mac. Install it on your Macbook or iMac, and manage your grocery lists any time you need.

The new Mac app has all the important features letting you manage your shopping lists quickly and conveniently – it allows you to add new products to the lists, edit and delete them, change your lists names, create new lists and delete the old ones, use the product dictionary and sync the changes across devices. In other words, it has everything you need to plan your shopping.

If you are already registered in the “Buy Me a Pie!” app on a mobile device, you can access your existing lists by using the same account in the Mac app. Open the menu in the top left corner, select “Account”, enter the same login and PIN you use in the mobile app, and click “Log in”. Just a few seconds – and your lists are here on your desktop!

Download and enjoy!

This button lets you add the ingredients from the recipes to your “Buy Me a Pie!” shopping lists with one click. Convenient, isn’t it?

Now you can not only import the products to a list, but also see the link to the recipe origin in the list title. This allows you to proceed to the recipe description any time right from the ingredients list in “Buy Me a Pie!” app.

If you don’t have the app installed on your smartphone and are browsing through the recipes on a desktop, click “Add ingredients to shopping list” and enter your mobile phone number in a window that will appear. You will receive an SMS with the link to “Buy Me a Pie!” app downloading, in which you will find a new grocery list with all the ingredients.

This feature works for “Buy Me a Pie! – Grocery Shopping List Free” iOS app, “Buy Me a Pie! – Grocery Shopping List for Family” iOS app and “Shopping List – Buy Me a Pie!” Android app.

Let’s admit it: we chat, and we chat a lot. The only thing that we use more that chats is probably Facebook. The popularity of Facebook all over the world naturally resulted in the vast spread of Facebook messenger. So we thought it would be great if you could share your grocery lists right there. Really, isn’t it cool to be able to discuss things you want to purchase before adding them to a list without switching between chats and apps? Sharing list via FB messenger is easy and intuitive. You need “Buy Me a Pie!” installed on your iOS device and you need Facebook Messenger as well.

• open the list you’d like to share via Facebook messenger
• tap the sharing button in the upper right corner of the list
• select Facebook messenger icon:

• select the person you want to send the list to
• tap Send in the bottom right corner

The person, who receives the list from you, can either just see the list of products in the messenger or he/she can import it into his/her copy of “Buy Me a Pie!” (if this person has our app installed). When you receive a “Buy Me a Pie!” list from someone in Facebook messenger, you can import this list to your copy of the app by clicking on “Reply” in the message (Facebook does not allow changing their buttons and controls names, thus we have to use “Reply”). Here is what we refer to: Please note: sharing a list via Facebook messenger does not mean your list will get shared between your and your chatmate accounts in “Buy Me a Pie!”. Both of you will have the same list, but the changes, made by one of you in this list, will not appear on the device of the other. It works like sending a list by email or txt, but by means of Facebook messenger, where you can ask your questions or comment on it. More cool features are on the go, stay tuned!

Hurry up to win Apple Watch Sport from “Buy Me a Pie!” grocery list! To enter this giveaway please do the following:

1. provide your email in the field below
2. get a unique link for the free app downloading
3. invite as many of your friends with iOS devices as possible to download the free “Buy Me a Pie!” iOS app with your link
4. !important! ask them to open the downloaded app (otherwise the download is not scored to you)

The user, whose unique link results in the maximal number of app installs, wins. You are welcome to share the link in any social nets you wish to increase your chances! We’ve added social buttons for your link sharing, all you need to do is to add your comment that motivates people to use your link. There will be one winner only, and we hope it will be you!

After you enter your email you also get your ID – please save it, you will need it to check if you’re the winner. You’ll receive this ID alongside with the unique link to your email as well.

Unique download link can be used to download the app only once per a device, but on the unlimited number of devices. Multiple attempts of the app installation to the same device are not scored. And let us repeat it once again: if the app is installed, but not opened, the fact of install is not scored either.

Cheaters will also be disqualified. We know how to differ real installs made by real people from multiple ones made by one and the same user, so do not try to cheat.

Giveaway entry starts on July 10 and ends on July 30. The winner will be chosen on July 31, the winner’s ID and score will be published here. Ready? Go!

And we are happy to announce the winner!
