Why should I pay for a shopping list app? +

Because "free" apps have a hidden cost: your data.

Typical free apps:

❌ Sell your consumption patterns (what you buy, when, where) to ad companies
❌ Your shopping profile is worth a lot of money for market research
❌ You get bombarded with personalized ads
❌ Require constant internet to track you
❌ You are always geolocated, they even know which aisle you are in
❌ Your shopping lists are stored on their servers

SmartCart Family:

✅ Zero tracking - Your privacy is guaranteed
✅ Works 100% offline
✅ Your data NEVER leaves your phone
✅ Zero ads, guaranteed
✅ Nutritional education for your kids (Lucy)

                        It pays for itself by detecting just 2 or 3 checkout errors a year. Supermarkets often make mistakes, usually in their favor.
