A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
Apple isn't a grocery store. So, it's not as simple as them becoming one.
Apple is a tech company, and wants data more than anything. I can see them creating a service that leverages typical retail channels. Capturing the shopping habits from consumers akin to the data Shopify is gathering, whilst also providing a platform for small and midsize businesses, is more their style.
They need to add calorie counting to health or fitness so we can stop using MyFitnessPal
Apple, could you just focus on hardware and software please?
Maybe, just maybe, they should make their flagship Siri product suck less first?
No chance this is happening, this is not even remotely in Apples wheelhouse and it's a crowded market where Apple really has little uniqueness to offer.
There are plenty of easier, more profitable ventures for Apple than this.
Huge doubt.
Iβd see them replacing MyFitnessPal than anything else
Is apple looking for some tax losses to offset their other business or what?
Nice but i refuse to use delivery app cus of dumb extra fees.
I doubt this will ever happen
There is no way they'd enter a market with such a high support burden & massive potential for generating bad press & ruining their reputation.
No, I don't think they will.
I agree. But I wouldnβt be surprised

It's obvious how this brainchild originated. A certain CEO (who's not famed for his imagination) was engaged in his favourite activity β doodling, applying decorative ornaments to his surname when, wondering how to make his mark on the world, at last it came to him β a groundbreaking idea β "Cook! That's it. Food."
"But sir β"
"No 'buts' Zack. Shareholders'll love it. Now, hop to it."
"But sir β"

Dumbest thing I read on Reddit today award winner
I guess the world really is full of pathetic billionaires obsessed with becoming "the everything app". Apple wants to monitor your heart rate and also decide what you eat. I guess this is normal behavior.
lol you shouldnβt be surprised bro
Someone just needs to come up with an open system for managing genuine nutritional information that comes from the makers of the food. So it's guaranteed to have all of the information and it's updated.
Sadly I don't think it will work unless it's something forced by a government but this is the one thing that ruins all food tracking apps.
Instacart is terrible and expensive. I miss Peapod so much; they left Chicago. :(
Maybe they'll build a platform for others to use but no chance they do it themselves
A $3 shit cut chicken breast and white rice for only $45, Think Differentβ’οΈ
WTF lol. DOA.
What does "pre-logged" mean? Will Apple create a calorie tracking app? How will portion sizes be determined? Will it provide national values and allow customization for individual servings for families or meals?
Iβll go to use it and itβll say βwhy buy beef when you could eat a science experiment?β
I could possibly see them partnering with an existing meal delivery service
LOL, no.
The entire food delivery industry is too small for Apple.
