What Lista is
Lista is a paid shopping list app for personal grocery trips and shared shopping with friends or family. Shared lists update in real time, and groups let users keep lists for different people. Recurring items, private saved products, and photo-based templates support repeat purchases and recipes. Lista also offers reusable templates from its team. Its AI meal planner can turn meal ideas into list ingredients, while an AI estimate can project a trip total in a selected currency; the terms warn these estimates may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. The App Store listing describes beta voice input and plain-text sharing through another app’s share menu. Lista says it does not show third-party ads, sponsored placements, coupons, affiliate offers, or retailer promotions, and does not sell personal information. It runs on iPhone and compatible Macs. Google Play is listed as coming soon. An active subscription is required: $1.99 a month or $6.99 a year.
