I really like Home Assistant’s integrated shopping list, especially with the recently added wake word detection for voice control.

However, it can be a bit clunky to go find it within the companion app when you’re shopping.

So to get it to pass the wife test, I created a separate standalone app!

This is awesome!

In the future, if you ever get tired of maintaining it, remember that todoist is a great app with home assistant shopping list integration on day one!

Man I have the same issue. I used to solve this in Google home until Google removed third party list functionality

Awesome. I haven't gone all in on HA voice, but this is going to be a must when I do.

There's a shopping list in HA?

Good timing because the shopping list card stopped working for me in 2023.11. This could be a good stopgap.

Per the release notes for 2023.11, Shopping Lists have become To-Do Lists and the card has been renamed to To-Do List Card.

Dude thank you! I was totally not figuring that out on my own!

[–] Brendan@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You’re welcome. Pretty cool features with to-do lists now, and the conditional card got some nice updates as well.

[–] realitista@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I tried looking for it but could not find any to-do list card. Do you have a link?

[–] Brendan@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It’s a built-in card, as of 2023.11. On my instance, it’s listed below the Vertical Stack card.

I submitted an issue on the docs page too. Hopefully they will fix it.

Thanks! They really need to update the docs!
