Tired of juggling to park your car as you approach the supermarket to finish weekend shopping for kitchen? Better download this app that would work as a virtual servant for you.

Launched by Amazon, this new gadget called Dash is a remote control to buy groceries.

Looking like a wand, Dash automates the task of creating a shopping list.

You can speak into it or use it to scan a barcode.

Dash then adds those items to your Amazon fresh account.

Once you are finished ordering, schedule a delivery.

There is a catch, though. You can order food and other grocery items from Amazon Fresh, the company's same-to-next-day delivery service.

"Become an Amazon Prime Fresh customer to use this app," the company said on its website.
