If you have Grosh Premium, you can turn on Live update in the app. This ensures your currently selected list gets updated even though it is currently closed. On iOS this includes the number shown on your Grosh icon (the so-called badge).
If this is not working, here’s a tip for you: This feature only works with one device per user, so make sure you’ve only enabled it on one device. For instance, if you have a tablet and a phone, just enable it on the device you bring with you. Typically your phone. This way, the list is updated when you bring it to a location without network coverage.
Can the app remember an image across several shopping trips?
Yes, if you’ve added a grocery via barcode scan, the system has sufficient information to show the correct associated image. This is due to the fact that users typically do not agree on what e.g. “milk” is, and therefore also not on what image should go for that item.
A barcode identifies a special variant of a grocery, as they are unique across different brands and packages sizes. Therefore Grosh knows which image (and other variant information) to show when you add the item using the barcode.
All grocery items in Grosh are shared across users, so the system gets smarter as more grocery items are added by users. To register grocery information for a barcode, you can scan the barcode and add the item to your list. Once that’s done you can edit the information, e.g. add a missing image or add a missing package size.
How come the shopping list total price row is very high?
This is most likely because you happened to use price per unit, and at the same time specified a price per kg but entered weight in grams. This means the calculation will be 1000x too high. Please correct your weight or price such that they match.

Enter the price per item in the price field, then select the amout of items you plan to buy at the top just under the image by tapping the plus or minus buttons.
If you go back to your list, you can see that the line reflects the price (per item) and that the total price row at the bottom now reflects the amount x price.
