Grocy Android is an open-source Android client for grocy (source code). grocy is a self-hosted groceries & household management solution for your home.

Grocy Android uses grocy's official API to provide you a beautiful interface on your smartphone with powerful barcode scanning and intuitive batch processing, all what you need to efficiently manage your groceries.

This app requires a running self-hosted instance of the grocy server application.
It is a companion app, therefore it cannot run standalone or manage products itself.
You can try it using the demo option available on the login screen.

Compatibility

The developer of the grocy server application has released a new version 3.0.0 at the end of December 2020.
Among other great things it contains breaking changes in the API, which means that this unofficial Android app will not work properly after updating the server to version 3.0.0.
So if you want to continue using this Android app as usual, you should wait for our update to v2.0.0 before updating your server to version 3.0.0. Version v2.0.0 of our app will probably be released in early 2021 and will then no longer support grocy server version 2.7.1.
Again in 'easy' language:

• Grocy Android v1.x.x requires grocy Server 2.7.1
• Grocy Android v2.x.x requires grocy Server 3.0.0 or higher

Grocy Android requires at least Android 5.0 Lollipop and works properly on devices without any Google service installed.

It is also possible to use the grocy Add-on on a Hass.io server. Click here for instructions.

This app supports https encryption

• if your server uses a certificate which is signed by a public and trusted certificate authority (CA). To meet this requirement, you can use a free certificate from letsencrypt.org for your server. Old Android devices can have problems with newer CAs because their internal list of trusted CAs can be outdated if they don't receive system updates anymore.
• if your server uses a self-signed certificate. In this case the certificate must be stored in the Android user certificate store.

About

This app is a project of my brother and me. We started working on it during the first months of the Corona pandemic in Germany, just before our Abitur, when the schools had to close.

We'd like to thank the developer of grocy, Bernd Bestel, without whose great work this app would never have been possible.
