>But seriously, ditch the real time sharing stuff. I don't know why so many todo lists focus on that.

I think what you're missing here is THE TRACTION. They have 10s of thousands of users already, and they are using the app, as explained in the article. I would imagine the team has enough analytics in there to know what features people are using, and talks to their customers to understand the analytics better.

What's the reason for your suggestion? What you envision? Or what people actually do with an app based on thousands of users? I would guess the Anylist guys use the latter.

I always take what founders (including myself) say about traction with a grain of salt.

I can only make suggestions based on my experiences and the problems I see. If they have data to prove otherwise then by all means discard my suggestions ... I don't take it personally :).
