Fun and intuitive

Loving it. Would like an option to reorder lists on iOS, am I missing something?

Edit: thank you to Developers for replying! Problem solved.

This is the most logical and intuitive planning app I’ve had, and I’ve tried a lot of them, and I do mean A LOT. The icons make the lists fun and easy to find, and make it easy to have lists for different occasions (day to day, work, health) in one place. Hope to have an option to add time and deadlines etc for sub tasks as well. But so far, well done!

Thank you for your feedback! To re-order lists, simply use a drag-n-drop gesture — hold over a list for a second and then move it to a new location. If a list won't drag, you might be pressing too firmly so the iPhone's 3D Touch gesture is activated. Here is a useful article with a couple screenshots on how to re-sort to-do items and lists: https://pocketlists.com/help/5/sorting-to-dos/

Exports Lists created in other apps.

So far I have one important compliment: exporting lists! For the times that printed copies of lists are necessary, a list can be created and exported to any word processing program (‘copy’ command
) or printed directly from the app. another function that may also be available with other apps is its ability to automatically include lists from other apps. As a retiree, I didn’t feel the need to have extended lists but now I’m surprised how many I include.

Can’t see Lists

Downloaded for iPad, used the Reminders App import to start, but when I select Lists to see all my lists, there is only one showing. If I delete this list, another imported one shows. But you can’t see a full list of all my lists.

Shame but not usable as it is.

Great but not so.....

This app is almost amazing. I love making lists. I keep paper to-do lists and I keep a Happy Planner. This app has helped a little. My biggest issue is that the web app doesn’t properly reflect the sublists created on the iPad/iPhone and vice-versa. Also you can’t create subtext from the web app.

I need a fix for this. I paid for the lifetime version. This app is of no use if I can not keep my lists in order across devices. Please fix!!!

Love the new dark mode but PLEASE...

I get blinded by the white splash screen before the app loads to the dark screen. Please fix this by making the splash screen also dark in dark mode or an option to eliminate the splash screen altogether. Otherwise LOVE the app. Thank you!

Needs some improvements

Pocket lists 2 should have been an update to the first app and not a completely new one! Yearly subscription for a list app doesn’t make sense. One time "reasonable” price could’ve been much better. Anyway the app lacks essential features to be used as a shopping list such as : categories, totals per category and totals per list.

Keeps losing my lists;(

I have loved and used this app for years and even came back after trying a different one...

Lately it keeps losing my lists, I’d shake it to do the reorganize and half my lists gone! Poof! Lala land! I’d type it all back in and another couple times later using it, poof - gone!

Also, after shake to organize - found any single random item would be duplicated a kazillion times (seriously like 20). I’d delete the extras and some other time while using app some other item would be multiplied again;(

Very annoyed and deleting as now I have to try to remember all my stuff to create new lists in another app that might work better!!!! Since I’m done spending my time redoing my lists in this app for them to keep getting zapped or multiplied!!!

Works well for todos and wallet

This app continues to grow on me with its thoughtful feature set (subtasks, tags, etc) and clear roadmap. I bought it for its iPhone and iPad apps, but the web and watch applications are useful as well. On a lifetime subscription, this app fits my needs and my budget. Good job.

Keeps me on track and schedule

Love the app. Super clean, super simple, very easy. Gets me through the day.

I’m a subscriber to keep you guys hustlin with updates. Keep up the good work 🤙🏼

Id would like to be able to change the importance tasks icons (skull, fire, etc) that is displayed next to each task. I’d love to choose from say 50+ different little ones (even animated ones would be legit) so I can have my To-Do schedule look more easier on the eyes when I can assign “lists” their own little icons.

Also would like to choose my startup screen, I prefer to see the To-Do’s screen over the Lists screen every time I start the app.

No issues really, I love how you keep it simple. Don’t over saturate with tons of features, the price is great.

Gorgeous.

I rarely write reviews, but felt compelled to do so on this occasion. This app is beautiful! Feels extremely native and very user friendly. Well done to the product team! Also, who illustrated your gorgeous icon set??

A couple of minor suggestions:
- add some haptic when you enter an item on a list
- on the sign up form keyboard, include the suggestion bar, or at least change the action button to progress to the next field
- there’s a typo on the invite friends screen

:)

Thank you for your feedback! Added your suggestions to the wish list for future releases. Oops, there was typo indeed 😬 Will fix it in the upcoming release!
