This looks pretty and useful for iPhone users, but as an Android user this isn't particularly useful to me, and the iPhone-only approach is stifling what could be a really awesome concept.

This would be much more awesome as a web application, perhaps with some sort of JSON API for third-party applications to hook into; beyond the obvious use-cases of developing an Android app, it would also enable cool things like, say, integrating with product and vendor (i.e. grocery store) websites in order to provide means to build a shopping list while surfing the web, then take that list with me on my phone while I go shopping, knowing exactly which stores I need to go to and how much I'll end up spending.

Yeah, we are considering that, but for now we just wanted to keep the concept really simple to test it out. We actually plan to do some other cool stuff such as shared lists, Pinterest integration, adding photos to the items and so on.

Thanks!
