Refuses to work

I’m sorry but this app refuses to work. I cannot open it with the security info I created. It doesn’t send phone notification numbers to verify and says my email is “already in use” when I only signed up once without getting in. I’d love to see how this app works but instead I fought to get in for 20-30 minutes and am now deleting it and going elsewhere. Poo!

Sorry to hear that you had issues. Unfortunately for us both, this could have been easily corrected if you just chose to contact our support rather than write a 1-star review. Now you are missing out on the app, and we have an unnecessary poor review that could have been avoided :-(

Great for kids!

This app is great for me and my parents! I am 12 years old and I’m notorious for not doing my chores. The app makes sure I’m keeping myself busy and when I don’t do my chores, I get whipped ;) Honeydew List is easy to navigate and it helps me make sure my sister is doing her homework. My parents share a list with my sister and I and we can’t delete items to get out of doing our work. I highly suggest this app! I do think that they could make the app better by adding different sounds instead of just the whip.

Thank you for your feedback! We are working on adding additional sounds in the very near future! Good luck with your chores! HoneyDew Support

Changed to subscription use

When we first got the app we didn’t have to pay a subscription. We created multiple lists and was able to share them. When I launched the app it said only 4 allowed lists and only one can be shared. I had 6 shared lists previously without any issues. I believe we even paid for the app when we got it. But now it’s useless without a subscription. Talk about bait and switch. Never again.

This app has been free to everyone for 5 years while we built it up (and paid for with our own money) to what users have been asking for from the hundreds of requests and suggestions. You have never had to pay for this app, so your comment about previously paying for it is not true. My wife and I designed this app to share it with all of the other couples and families with the same todo struggles, because the app we needed did not exist. We wanted something simple yet effective. Users can continue to use the app for FREE. Although the free version is now limited to 1 shared list where the Pro version allows for unlimited, we took ZERO functionality away with this update and added or improved upon all of the following: - Added a "Recurring Items" feature - Added an "Item Notes" feature - Added the ability to manage your app sounds - Added an "Item Priority" feature - Added the ability to Move Items between lists - Improved item deletion functions: Full-Left-Swipe (iOS), "Delete All", and "Delete All Completed" options - Added an optional "Due Today" list to display items needed today - Added the ability to display 4, 6, or 8 lists - Added the ability to Sort list items - Improved list color selection feature - You can now manage how far back to view your "Todo History". We have already begun developing the next exciting update for HoneyDew List! Thank you for using our free app. Best of luck in your search for another, better, free HoneyDew List app.

Best App I own

I don’t usually review apps but I love this one so much I had to. I do a lot of home repairs and other things for my wife, mother and friends. This app has helped so much. There isn’t much I would change about it, but I would pay to have certain options like being able to click on an item to expand it with details or/and adding pictures in the description, this would help when I need to pick up a part from Home Depot, Lowe’s etc and compare prices. The other thing I wish it had was the ability for my wife to log in and add or remove. I like the share option, but it would be nice if it could be viewed by more than one person at the same time. Thank you for making this app. David Magalnik

Hi Dave, thank you for the great feedback and 5 star review! You CAN add photos to your items when you create or edit an item! Simply press the camera icon and take or choose your photo! As far as sharing lists with your wife, I’d love to better understand your need that you feel the app doesn’t quite meet. Feel free to reach out at support@myhoneydew.us and I can see what we cam do. HoneyDew List Pro will be out shortly with even more helpful features!

Needs a recurring tasks option

Loving the app, but it needs a recurring task option.

Can’t get it to share

The entire reason I downloaded this app was to be able to share tasks with my husband, as I’m pregnant and need him to take over certain things. The app crashes EVERY time I hit the share button, so I’ve never been able to share it with him. I even deleted and reinstalled it, same issue.

App crashes

App crashes every time I try to share a list with a contact.

Almost perfect but falls short on a couple things

For the most part, I absolutely love this app. It’s genius! It’s easy to use. It’s useful. It’s funny. I’ve told my friends about it and several of them have downloaded it.

Here are my two issues: when adding a new item to a to-do list, it buffers for almost a full minute before it adds it to the list. It’s like waiting for dial up in 1999. When I want to make a to-do list, it’s usually because everything is about to spill out of my brain and I need to get it written down quickly before I lose something. So this slow buffering thing has become very problematic so my husband and I use this much less often.

Secondly, when we first downloaded the app, there was a hilarious whip sound when either of us added or checked off something on a to-do list. We can no longer get the notification sound to work. Both of us have the notification settings turned on and have tested it with the volume up. Not sure what happened.

Okay, actually a 3rd thing. This app DRAINS your battery more than any other app I’ve used. Something to do with the location service I guess. Oh, which leads me to one 4th and last thing... when I turn the location services off to save my battery, it gives me the pop up option to turn on my location services in settings. When I click “not now maybe later,” it automatically takes me to my settings anyway. So basically, every time I open the app, it takes me to my settings, then I have to go back into the app. Very annoying.

Other than that, the app is great! 😂

Great app location not needed

I love the app it works really good, but there isn’t a need for my location and the fact that it pops up anytime I open the app is worse. This even happens if I haven’t closed it all the way out which is kinda annoying when shopping and using it as a list to get things.

Edit..stopped using as it kept asking for my location and still left the app when I said no. It would also stop my music or anything I was listing to, I don’t see why the app would need my headphones or speaker

Thank you for installing HoneyDew List! We appreciate the feedback! Our next update will be out shortly, which has improvements, bug fixes caused by Apple updates, and new functions. One noted improvement is with the location notifications that you mention. Location is needed when using Location Notifications, which remind you when you are driving locations that have items. This can be turned in our next update. Also, the issue with your phone sound being interrupted was a big and has been fixed in the next update. Thank you again!
