AI in Listl
Last updated: 12 November 2026
In short
- Listl only uses artificial intelligence on your iPhone: the Apple Intelligence language model and iOS text recognition.
- What Listl reads for this doesn't leave your device. Listl uses no AI services on the internet and doesn't train AI models with your data.
- You see what an AI recognizes in Listl and can change it at any time. Listl never passes off anything an AI generated as made by a person.
With this notice, we inform you under the EU Artificial Intelligence Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) about where Listl uses AI.
Where Listl uses AI
Reading receipts
Listl reads paper and electronic receipts on your iPhone: the writing with iOS text recognition, PDFs through their text. Listl's own fixed rules then work out the store, date, total and prices. Only where these rules get stuck does Listl ask the language model on the device, on iPhones with Apple Intelligence:
- which store it is and what kind of store (such as a supermarket or drugstore), if Listl doesn't know the chain,
- which lines are items with which amount, if the prices read don't add up to the total.
Listl only takes what the receipt confirms: the store has to appear on the receipt as it is, every amount has to be found there, and together they have to add up exactly to the total. Otherwise, Listl sticks with what it read itself. Listl doesn't ask the AI how many pieces you bought.
Ingredients from websites
If you share a page to Listl that contains no recipe details, Listl asks the language model on the device to list the ingredients from the page's text. You see the list and choose what goes on your shopping list.
Without Apple Intelligence
On iPhones without Apple Intelligence – or if you've turned it off in the iOS Settings – Listl reads without a language model.
What isn't AI
Quick entry, categories and suggestions, the learned route through the store, “Listl thinks ahead”, “Probably still at home”, the list total and your budget follow fixed rules and counts on your device. Listl uses no language model for them.
What happens to your data
The Apple Intelligence language model runs on your iPhone. What Listl gives it – the text of a receipt or a page – doesn't leave your device for this. Listl passes nothing on to AI services on the internet and uses none of it to train AI models.
Labeling
Listl doesn't generate any text, images, audio or video that it passes off as made by a person. What an AI recognizes are details from your own receipt or from the page you shared. When you read receipts in the app, you see them before you save them; you can change the store, its kind and every price at any time.
