For staples you re-buy and ingredients you've cooked before.

What this does

  • Pantry mode — a separate view of household staples (milk, bread, nappies) you re-buy regularly.
  • Smart suggestions — surfaces things you've added to your list before, so you don't have to retype.

When to use this

  • The weekly shop, where staples don't change much.
  • Cooking a dish you've made before and want the ingredients quickly.

How it works

Pantry mode

  1. Open Shopping.
  2. Switch to Pantry mode.
  3. Mark items as low — they go onto the active shopping list automatically.

Suggestions

  1. As you type, Bubsby shows things you've added before.
  2. Tap to add. Faster than typing each one.
  3. Suggestions also surface ingredients from recipes you've cooked.

Important things to know

  • Pantry mode and the active list are linked — marking pantry items as low adds them.
  • Suggestions are based on your own history, not other households.
  • Some features may be on paid plans.

Common questions

  • Will it suggest things my partner added? Yes — household history is shared.
  • Can I turn off suggestions? They appear inline as you type. Just keep typing past them if you don't want them.
