How to add items by voice

On Android, you can dictate items straight onto your list: tap + Add, then the microphone icon. On iPhone, you can add items by voice through the AI Assistant.

Dictate items on Android

You can name several items at once by separating them with “and”, and say the quantity right away. Before the items go onto your list, you’ll see what the app recognized.

Step by step5 steps
  1. Open your list and tap + Add.
  2. Tap the microphone icon  in the text field.
  3. Say what you want to buy, for example “milk and two pounds of potatoes and bread”.
  4. Check the list of recognized items.
  5. Tap Add to add the items to your list. If something was recognized wrongly, tap Close and dictate the items again.

On Android, there are two more ways to add items by voice:

  • The Listonic widget on your phone’s home screen: tap + in the widget and use the microphone, without opening the app.
  • Add by voice on the Home screen: opens the AI Assistant, so you can tell it what you need.

  1. Tap Assistant  in the bottom bar.
  2. Tap the microphone icon in the message field and say what you need, for example “List the ingredients for pancakes for four people”.
  3. Under the answer, tap Add [number] products to list. Change the list they go to if you want, then tap Add.
