Add item quantity/amount

[HanGhoul]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The lack of not being able to add quantities/amounts to items in my lists is the only thing holding me back from switching to this (better looking) app.

Describe the solution you'd like Add a quantity/amount field for each item and have it right-aligned in the list view. Make it a string, so people can add units themselves (pcs, kg/g, lb/oz, l/ml, gal/fl oz, whatever...).

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternatively one could just add the quantity/amount to the item name, but not having it in a separate column feels too cluttered. Adding the quantity/amount at the beginning of the item ruins sorting.

-- Thanks for working on this neat app Albert, I've been watching it in fdroid since the end of last year, hoping you'd continue working on it :+1:

Thanks for this modern and powerful app @Albert221 !

I'm switching from Shopping List as it has not been updated for 2 years. I would be pleased that Fast shopping have the feature to set a quantity / amount too.

Maybe you can invest too the "Add new item window" : Shopping list have a faster bottom screen field. It's really convenient, and need definitely less clicks when you need to add many items at once, like when you list before going shopping ;-). There might be some other options, like a long click on the "+" button that open an "Add item window" which loop until you click on "Stop/No more item/End" button. But I'm not a developer and a UI designer, so... not a specialist ;-)

It's baffling that this capability doesn't exist yet
