Already forgotten about paper shopping lists and use for this special application on Android or your iPhone? Wonderful. But do not you think that the current electronic shopping lists divorced from reality? That is, they are comfortable, but there is no connection with the places in which we are actually with them and go. List allows you to capture the necessary products and drugs, but does not help with finding the goods and does not know the current prices.
We recently discovered a free shopping list for iOS and Android called Myconomy, which solves the problem of finding and planning trips cost in shops and pharmacies.
In order not to be wasted on unnecessary words, we just show Unlike the process of creating a list in Myconomy from other specialized applications.
When you first start in front of us opened our empty shopping list.
Initial entry of goods and their quantity is carried out in advance of predictive preset list of foods and medicines. As long as usual.
When the first product is listed, Myconomy starts. The service automatically starts the search for the entered goods to nearby shops and pharmacies, showing a circle with the number of matches found next to the name.
When the tapas on the circle opens the interface list with the exact names of suitable products. The list can be sorted by price of the goods or by the remoteness of the store, the goods available in stock.
Choose the best option, do it on tap, and then press the command "B list" from the popup menu.
Now in our shopping list is not just an abstract bread and bakery product specific, with the location where it is necessary to buy, the exact unit price and total price for the desired to buy quantity. At the bottom of the list shows the total amount of the proposed purchase.
Built-in map displays all the supermarkets and pharmacies made to the service database, and allows you to add certain outlets favorites. Too remote outlets are eliminated with the slider in the bottom of the screen corresponding to the search range.
When the tapas at the store or pharmacy, a popup menu with the option to "Buy here". When it is pressed the selected items will be searched only in this outlet.
In the future, the user watchlist can be used to exclude from the search unnecessary stores and pharmacies to search for products Only in pet shops.
Also worth noting is the existence of the notification system operating on the basis of data User geopozitsionnyh. Suffice it closer to the store or pharmacy, which is scheduled purchase as the application displays a notification.
The rest of the process of interaction with Myconomy is no different from other shopping lists. Menu provides quick access to the control list and favorite stores, and if necessary, a shopping list rummaged with other users directly from the application through SMS.
Minuses
Like any other application, Myconomy have something to criticize. Firstly, there is no alphabetical sorting shopping list, as well as visual color separation by product type.
Secondly, if we service has positioned itself as an integrated tool to create a list and find the best price for the goods, it would be possible to tie up to him and any delivery service.
Well, in the end it must be said about the number of the brought in shops and pharmacies base. According to the developer, they are more than 3500, but, as you know, most of which are located only in major cities. For example, in his native Ulyanovsk within a radius of 10 km (maximum coverage), there was not a single point of sale, which would know the service.
in total
Overall Myconomy looks like a very promising shopping list, which is already very nice and convenient to use. If the developer will continue to actively replenish the base of new supermarket chains and pharmacies, then in the near future the service be able to replace all of the existing shopping lists, creating thus a common tool for simple and cost-effective campaigns for goods.
