I built a lightweight iOS shared lists app because I kept seeing the same weird gap.

Simple notes apps are easy until you need another person involved. Family organizer apps can handle the job, but they often feel like adopting a second operating system for the house.

Dash Lists is my attempt at the boring middle: shared lists for groceries, errands, packing, house supplies, and roommate/family stuff.

The core flow is:

Create a list.
Send an invite link.
The other person taps once.
Everyone can add and check things off in realtime.

I’m trying to keep the product intentionally small. No calendar, no project management cosplay, no “optimize your household” nonsense. Just fewer forgotten things and less “did you add it to the list?” energy.

I’d love feedback from other builders:

Is the instant invite link enough of a wedge?
What would you make paid without punishing sharing?
What onboarding step would you remove first?

I’m building an iOS app called Dash Lists for couples, families, and roommates who just need shared lists to work without a bunch of setup.

The basic problem I kept seeing: grocery apps, notes apps, family organizer apps, and reminder apps all sort of work. Then someone has to create an account, accept an invite, learn the app, find the right list, and remember to use it. By then, the milk has been forgotten and everyone is quietly blaming the household CTO.

Dash is meant to be much lighter:

Create a list.
Send an invite link.
The other person taps once.
Everyone can add and check things off in realtime.

It’s mainly for groceries, errands, packing lists, house supplies, and the random stuff that otherwise lives in one person’s head until it becomes a marital side quest.

I’m looking for blunt early feedback:

What would make you actually use this with a spouse, roommate, or family member?
What would make you delete it immediately?
Are shared list apps already solved for you, or do they still feel annoying?
