I built an app that remembers your grocery list so you can reorder in one tap
redditby hulksmashOG• 1 month ago• 1 points

I kept rebuilding the same grocery cart every week or so on Instacart. Same 30-40 items, every single time. It felt like such a waste of time for something that barely changes. So I built **GroceryTap** which is a simple app that saves your usual grocery items and lets you reorder them in one tap. It hands off your list to Instacart to finish checkout. How it works: * Build your grocery list once with your preferred quantities * Star your favorites, add custom items * When it's time to shop, tap once and your list gets sent to Instacart * It picks up on your ordering cadence like weekly, bi-weekly, whatever and nudges you when it's time to restock. No AI, just simple math. What makes it different: * No account required and everything stays on your device * No ads, no tracking beyond anonymous analytics * It's not trying to be another grocery app but it just remembers what you buy and gets you to checkout faster Coming soon: * Shared lists - Ability to share a grocery list with your partner/roommates/friends so everyone can add stuff * Reorder from order history - A tap on any past orders to reorder the exact same items * Import your list - Easily paste or upload your existing grocery list and skip the setup entirely Tech stack (for the curious): React Native/Expo, [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) Core backend, deployed on Fly.io. Took about 3 months or so as a solo developer. Currently live on apple app store here -> [GroceryTap](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/grocerytap-one-tap-reorder/id6758560408), Android coming soon. What would make you actually use something like this? Open to any feedback or ideas.
