Shared shopping list apps

These are mobile and web apps for creating categorized shopping lists that can be shared with family or friends, synced across devices, and exported. The dated history before the index start is sparse, with single entries scattered across months from 2012 to 2026, showing no clear growth trend. All traction leaders have zero stars, so no product stands out on activity signal.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
