How does Shop-Assist know the prices at my local store?
We aggregate and verify pricing data daily directly from major retailers like Walmart, MaxiPali, MasxMenos, and Automercado and supplement this with community-reported prices. This ensures the Real-Time Price Comparison feature is highly accurate when you search for items like "Rice".
Does the app require linking to my bank account?
No. Shop-Assist is designed to empower your budgeting before you shop. We calculate the estimated total cost of your lists (e.g., ¢2 990 / $5.95 for Week 1) based on current store prices. We never require access to your personal financial accounts.
Is the price data updated in real-time?
Yes, the prices for featured stores are updated frequently to ensure accuracy. This allows you to find the absolute best grocery deals and guarantee you aren't overpaying when you shop.
Can I share my grocery lists with family members?
Absolutely! The app is built for households. You can easily manage and share any list, such as your "Week 1" list, using the Share List function.
