Which app is actually the best for sharing an Amazon cart these days? Me and my new roommate are moving into a place in Chicago next month and we really need to coordinate on stuff like towels and a microwave without accidentally buying two of everything. I've been looking at Share-A-Cart but then I saw another extension called CartShare or something? I dont really want to give her my password cuz thats weird even if we are friends. We are on a super tight budget so we cant afford to mess up orders. Is one of these better for mobile or should we just stick to the desktop extensions... I just need something simple.

I honestly had a pretty rough time trying to find something that actually worked for my last move. My old roommate and I tried some of those popular extensions last summer and it was such a disappointment. One of them just kept crashing or wouldnt load the items correctly, which is a total nightmare when money is tight. We tried a couple of those mobile versions too but they were even worse... just really clunky and not as good as I expected. We learned the hard way after accidentally ordering two sets of plates because the sync failed:
- stick to the desktop extensions since mobile is usually buggy
- always send a final screenshot before anyone hits buy
- dont trust the auto-sync features blindly It is super frustrating when the tech lets you down when you are just trying to be organized. Just a tip: Cart To Link is really handy if you're collaborating on a project and need the same parts.
