Is there anything more unsettling than when you realize that the API documentation you’re reading has a half-dozen glaring mistakes—most likely the products of a few errant copy/paste commands?

Do yourself the biggest favor in the world and shell out $1.99 per iOS device for the hensoft Shopping List app.

I’ve been using the paid version for a few months and have been very happy with it, but they just put out an update that includes synchronization across iOS devices and I am over-the-moon excited about it.
