    I tried a few with my better half. Pros and cons to all of them, and in the end we now use Google Keep to share our shopping list. It has the most reliable sharing sync that we've come across. Other apps just aren't as good at updating shared lists. The only downside is that you can't arrange crossed off items alphabetically, so if you cross of something like "milk" and then a few days later need to put milk back on your list, you'll have to go down through the crossed off items and look for it. It'll be there, but it would be nice if crossed off items were sorted. Otherwise, well worth a look, and it's free. Another one that we meant to try is Evernote. I think it might have list sorting, but tbh Keep works well enough for us, so we haven't gotten round to giving it a go.

    I use this. Key ring
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.froogloid.kring.google.zxing.client.android&hl=en

    Its quite handy for saving the keyfobs as well. dunnes is the only one I have trouble with the scanner app of it. but apart from that it works a treat. there is a shopping list feature on it too.

    I've used Our Groceries for years. It has a Web front end so it is accessible even if you don't have your phone and it has never failed in synching up for me.

    It's a shopping list on your phone. Some allow bar-code scanning.

    I use this too. Syncing is excellent.
    (didn't know about the web front end though... :o)

    Yes thanks. I've tried lots of others over the years but I like Bring's simple system. A picture's worth a thousand words and all that.
