I am really relieved to finally have a new version of Grocery Timer on TestFlight ( link )
This was supposed to be a quick update to handle a few annoyances and one new feature: the ability to add multiple shopping lists since I do shop for American food and Indian food at very different stores.
En route to that feature, I just ended up changing a bunch of UI, from better styling the app popups, to some visual changes to the forms to allow for faster data input.
Here is a list of everything that has changed:
New Features
- Ability to create multiple named shopping lists
- Items in your shopping bag are now grouped by recommended locations
- Snooze items in your shopping bag to never be tracked (do you really need to know when your soda is going bad?)
- Set shelf lives for expiring items using buttons with pre-set values (you can still add custom values that will bring up the numerical input UI)
Visual overhaul
- Redesigned “Update Values” screen
- System popups are now consistently styled
- Redesigned “Recipe Details” screen
- New cross-tab persistent UI when you have items that need to be organized in your pantry
Bugfixes
- App doesn’t show an error when two instances of exactly the same item are added to the pantry list
If you are interested, give the beta a shot and let me know if you find anything that seems worth addressing.
