Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account?
No. Cesta works with no account, no sign-up and no connection. Everything is kept on your iPhone.
How do I add things with Siri?
Say "Hey Siri, add to Cesta" and then what you need: "milk, two loaves of bread and tomatoes". The first time, Siri will ask whether it can use Cesta: say yes and repeat the phrase.
Siri doesn't answer when I mention Cesta.
Check in iPhone Settings › Siri that Siri is on and, on Cesta's page, that "Use with Siri" is on. Meanwhile, the list's microphone works just the same, without Siri.
What is shopping mode?
It's the list for when you're in the shop: it comes out in aisle order and you just tick things off. If something isn't there, swipe it left and it stays on your list for next time.
What is scanning a receipt for?
To know what you spend on food, in which shop, and to compare prices. Cesta reads the receipt on your iPhone. If you give a product a brand and size, it tells you what it costs per kilo or litre and where the same brand is cheapest.
Do I need artificial intelligence?
No. The list, recipes, calendar and receipts work without it. The AI is optional: it sorts the list into categories, understands quantities and reads recipes and receipts better. To turn it on you need a key from a provider; here's how to get one for free.
What data is sent to the AI?
Only if you turn it on and agree, and directly to the provider you choose. It's all explained in the privacy policy.
How do I earn coins, and what are they for?
By using the app: finishing a shop, saving receipts and recipes, adding things or playing. They let you customise the notebook's sheets and dress Cesta. Some things unlock as it grows: Cesta is born a baby and turns a year older every week.
How do I delete my data?
In Settings › Delete all data, or by uninstalling the app.
