Shopping Lists

You can now create personal or household Shop Lists. These lists can be wishlists, planning, or just ideas for the future–shopping items within them do not show up in your main shopping list.

Inventory and Plan Task Integration

Plan Tasks can now be associated to Inventory. This lets you keep track of tasks associated with certain inventory items, like car or appliance maintenance.
