(I am biased, since I made this app) I think it offers a unique way to work with your grocery shopping list. Very useful if you organize your grocery shopping by recipes.

What is PivotList?

A new way to look at your grocery shopping list. Perfect if you plan your grocery shopping by recipes.

The problem:

  • When meal planning - we create recipes, with products under each recipe. however
  • When shopping in the supermarket - we need to see products, with recipes under each product.

The solution: PivotList allows you to do exactly this - view the same recipes and products, but in two different ways, depending on what makes sense in the moment.

Explanation with example:

Imagine you're planning a grocery shopping. You have some recipes: You would do something like:


Guacamole

  • avocados
  • tomatoes
  • onion
  • lime juice

Avocado toast

  • sliced bread
  • avocados
  • extra virgin olive oil

Spring salad

  • cucumber
  • tomatoes
  • extra virgin olive oil

You go to the supermarket and now you're in the fruit & veg area, buying tomatoes. You need to scroll up and down your grocery list to see all the recipes which mention 'tomatoes' (and when you put them in your basket - you need to tick them from all the different places where they appear). That's annoying and unnecessary.

PivotList solves the issue by allowing you to 'pivot' the data - so that the same shopping list shown above can be viewed like this:


avocados

  • Guacamole
  • Avocado toast

tomatoes

  • Guacamole
  • Spring salad

extra virgin olive oil

  • Avocado toast
  • Spring salad

(list continues with all the products that are part of a single recipe, e.g. 'onion', 'lime juice', 'sliced bread', 'cucumber')


Now you can clearly see all the recipes for which you need tomatoes.

Try it out for yourself!

Note: Not only for grocery shopping! In the examples above we're talking only about culinary recipes, but PivotList could be just as useful for other lists.
