Why you’ll like it

Paste your list and go

Drop in a list from Messages, Notes, or reminders. ShopSense cleans it up, skips duplicates, and keeps it ready for your next run.

Shelf hints that feel natural

Point at the aisle. The reticle glows when it sees your item and buzzes when you can grab it. If it can’t see well, it nudges you to move closer.

Handles tricky shelves

Toggle fuzzy matching for close spellings, and switch sensitivity if labels are tiny or reflective. Lens suggestions keep everything sharp.

Keep your place

See what’s next, what’s found, and how many are left. Progress is saved automatically between trips.

Simple controls

Flip sound, haptics, and auto lens on/off in one place. Everything stays in portrait, so you can use it one-handed.

Private by default

No accounts or ads. Camera use is only for scanning shelves, and nothing leaves your phone.

Set your list

Add items or paste them from Messages/Notes. Quick suggestions help you start fast.

Step 2

Pick sensitivity

Choose Strict, Balanced, or Forgiving. Turn on fuzzy search if spellings might vary.

Step 3

Aim at the labels you need. The reticle glows and buzzes when it finds your item.

Step 4

Track progress

Mark items found, rename them, or clear the list when you’re done. Everything stays saved.
