Grocery shopping has to be one of the biggest hassles faced by any household. However, thanks to new technologies, grocery shopping has been made much more convenient. Today we bring you an app that might just save you from unwanted trips to the supermarket: InstaShop.

InstaShop is all about ordering your groceries online and having them delivered right to your doorstep. The app started back in 2015; its creators aimed to design an app which would make our daily lives a bit easier. The simple and user-friendly app allows its users to get their groceries with almost no hassle at all. The app currently operates in the U.A.E, Bahrain, Egypt, and Lebanon, covering a large number of areas via partnership deals with an extensive network of supermarkets.

While general grocery delivery is by far the app’s main service, the app also provides other services, like allowing users to book house cleaners. You begin by selecting your location, then you provide your exact address, mobile number, and name. The app then instantly generates a list of nearby supermarkets which are ready to deliver. After selecting your supermarket, the app then allows you to virtually scour the shelves of the supermarket. With various categories to choose from, you add the needed items to your basket then review the order. You then select the preferred payment method; you can pay online or in cash.

InstaShop also allows you to track the order and updates you on the order’s current status. In case any of the items you ordered happen to be out of stock, a substitution request will appear before dispatching your order.

With a few clicks from your phone, grocery shopping is no longer a chore!
