Shared shopping list for roommates and couples

Stop texting “are we out of toilet paper?” Build one tiny list from what’s actually low at home — bathroom, fridge, and cleaning — then share it with whoever is heading out.

Start from what’s in the house, not a blank list

Most roommate list apps open to an empty note. Someone forgets half the staples; the other buys duplicates. Tnylst flips that: you track household stock once, set reorder thresholds, and the shopping list is generated from what crossed “low.” Same loop as the family shopping list and household inventory pages — sized for 2–4 people splitting errands.

One tiny list everyone can open

When toothpaste, oat milk, or dish soap trips its threshold, it lands on a short shared list. Text-share is free so a roommate can grab the store run without creating an account maze. Optional live family links are Tnylst Plus ($4.99 one-time). Core inventory stays on the phone — see on-device inventory and low-stock alerts.

Bathroom + fridge + cleaning in the same loop

Roommates don’t only share groceries. Toilet paper, shampoo, detergent, and leftovers compete for the same errand. Tnylst keeps toiletries, fridge, and cleaning supplies on one restock loop so the shared list matches how people actually live together. Setup takes minutes via setup family restock.

vs list-only apps

AnyList and Bring are strong when you already know what to buy. They are weaker when the question is “what ran out?” Tnylst is stock-first: inventory thresholds feed the list. Fair comparison: Tnylst vs AnyList & Bring. If you were comparing kitchen OS / meal apps, see vs pantry apps and vs KitchenPal — Tnylst still is not a meal planner.

On-device / Plus

Core inventory and local alerts stay on your device. Live multi-phone sync of family links is Plus. That honesty matters for couples and roommates who do not want another cloud kitchen OS. Details on on-device inventory.
