- Shopping List Cart icon issues may disappear in higher fidelity prototypes
Hopefully, this will be the case, but we are not entirely convinced of this issue disappearing. Because we are using a shopping car icon, people may think of our shopping list section similarly to how Shopping Carts are used in online shopping sites.
