Huh, I had no idea there was a “Wal-Mart Grocery App,” why in the world would Wal-Mart have two different apps that essentially (I assume) provide similar functionality? I don’t doubt you Roger, I’m just quite surprised.
It was a few years ago when I installed the WalMart app on my iOS devices, is this “WalMart Grocery” app something relatively new? Anyhow, my apologies for convoluting the thread. But, I still find the WalMart app very, very accessible and quite convenient to use. I’ve gone to the web page and, while it is true that the site is accessible, I just prefer the vanilla WalMart app. **************** - Bill from Ino, Wisconsin - "With most men, unbelief in one thing springs from blind belief in another." - German Aphorist, Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742 - 1799) On Apr 20, 2018, at 2:26 PM, Roger Frischenmeyer <thejayhawk...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: Hi Bill, you are explaining the Walmart app, not the Walmart grocery app. The Walmart grocery app is not very accessible. Truthfully it is easier to go to Walmart grocery in Safari and do your shopping that way at least that is the way I do it.
