I know Instacart has done this.  It is unclear to me whether this is integration capability is exclusive to Instacart or whether it is publicly available to all 3rd party app developers.

No
Looks like they don't support much now unless it's some name tizen? Are you able to click the link?

I am able to click the link.  I agree, so far it doesn't look like they support much.  They should have built their integration to Instacart such that others could use it too.  So short sighted.

I read some reviews that people are using Smart Things maybe you can take a look at the 3rd party vendors they support and maybe a dev will see this and assist you. 😊

Smart Things has the Samsung Food app which will work with the hub (I first came across it when someone was asking about it in relation to the hub). It can also be downloaded independently to your phone.  It builds recipes and shopping lists.  You can find it in the "life" tab of Smart Things,

Found this little blurb: Samsung's Food app, SmartThings Cooking, plays nice with the Family Hub

Thanks for your reply.  I actually work for a grocer that would like to integrate its own app with the Samsung fridge.
