Contribution:
If you run into a bug or miss a feature, feel free to give feedback in the app, send us an email or open an issue on GitHub.
Like the grocy project, Grocy Android can be translated, too. Please go to our GitHub page for more information.

Compatibility:
Grocy Android requires at least grocy 3.1.3 on your server.
It is also possible to use the grocy Add-on on a Hass.io server. Our FAQ on GitHub explains how to do that.

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 Old Android devices can have problems with newer CAs because their internal list of trusted CAs can be outdated if they don't receive system updates anymore.
Grocy Android also supports encryption if your server uses a self-signed certificate. In this case the certificate must be stored in the Android user certificate store.

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

Great app overall the only improvement I can think of is the ability to set a custom URL for the server instance so I can use a redirect service to access it remotely. Edit:it doesn't let me edit the server URL field, long pressing does nothing and tapping it tries to open it in a browser. Edit2: your "brother" blew me off and said that I should inquire here

The app works great! It was very easy to set-up. I got the app so I can use the barcode scanner since I coudn't get that feature to work when I was using the homeassistant app. The app makes it so much easier. I hope they keep adding new features.

Overall the app works great, with some features missing but listed as coming. I was surprised by the scanning feature picked up some foods automatically. One thing that I noticed was, when using a Nabu Casa url to log in it looses the images of the recipes, which makes it harder to sell the idea of using the app to my girlfriend.
