Using Groceree without a signal
Last updated
Groceree works offline. Your lists stay readable and editable with no connection, so you can keep checking items off at the back of a supermarket where reception drops. Everything you changed syncs automatically as soon as the phone is back online.
What happens
- 01
The list keeps working
Opening a list with no signal shows the items as they were when your phone last had a connection. You can add, edit and check off as normal.
- 02
Changes are held on the phone
Anything you do offline is stored locally rather than lost. There is nothing to save and no separate offline mode to switch on.
- 03
It syncs when you reconnect
The moment the phone has a connection again, your changes go up and anything other people did comes down. Nobody has to refresh anything.
Worth knowing
- While you are offline you will not see items other people add — they arrive when you reconnect.
- If two people change the same item while one is offline, the version that syncs later is the one that sticks, so it is worth a quick look at the list when you come back online.

- Share a shopping listCreate a list, tap Share Link, and send it however you already message each other. Anyone who opens the link joins the list on their own phone, and from then on every change is visible to everyone in real time.
- Sort by store aisleItems are grouped into categories automatically as you add them. To make the list match your shop, open Settings and use Category Organization to drag the categories into the order you actually walk them.
- Add items quicklyType in the Add item field and Groceree suggests matching products from a built-in catalogue as you go. Pick a suggestion and the item lands on the list already named and categorised, so a full weekly shop takes a couple of minutes.
