The large size lets you tick items off right from the Home Screen. • This Week, Budget, Shopping Day, Prep Tonight, Ready to Cook and Month Ahead put the rest of your week at a glance. • Lock Screen widgets show your list, your budget and tonight's cooking time. YOUR SHOP ON THE LOCK SCREEN • Tick your first item and your trip appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. • It shows the store you're at, how much is left there and the next aisle to visit, then moves on to your next store and goes away once everything is in the cart.
