Very good, but Mac app missing functionality!

The app is great on mobile, but there is no way to collapse notes on the Mac! Neither to uncollapse! All notes are hidden on Mac!

Response from developer

Thank you, C Mannnnn. You can use the foldable feature of the Mac note by utilizing the chevron located on the right side of the notebook. If the chevron is not displayed, please provide the version of macOS you are using and contact us via the contact page at https://purelist.com.

Mobile good, mac app bad

Was excited to learn there's a mac app, would make adding items to lists / schedules much easier. Unfortunately when you add stuff to the mac app it does not reliably sync to mobile app. Subscription cost = total ripoff

Response from developer

Sorry to inconvenience you with iCloud sync problem. iCloud sync may not work if you do not have enough iCloud space or if you have not restored your subscription correctly. You may also try switching the iCloud sync toggle on or off, which may solve the problem. We are here to help you resolve any issues you are experiencing. Could you email us at https://purelist.com contact page?

Perfect

This is the best minimal todo list I have found. The developer is actively improving it with updates. Not collecting data on its user makes it even better.

Doesn’t sync

Would be great if it would sync across devices

Response from developer

Thank you, Lcabbott94. Sync across devices is provided only in the Pro version. The Pro version has a 2-week trial period, so you can try it out if you like.

simple & neat app

I like this note taking app because it looks so nice and I am not overwhelmed by so many features. It is so easy to take notes. I use it to take notes for school. I think it would be great to have a folder to organize my notes by the different subjects or sections I have at school. That way it is more organized. It could be by tags 🏷️ or just with folders. These could be shown in the page that says Groups.

Thank you for your hard work 🐻‍❄️
Have a nice day.

Thank you, lilli—•. The group feature has been added since version 23.12.0. Sorry for the late update, but please try it. We will continue to develop features that will be useful for your study.

Well designed

This app is very well designed and removes a lot of the clutter I see in many other apps. As of this writing, I paid for a yearly subscription to see how this might work for me and to see how the developers support their product. The 4-star rating is based on: the app works as advertised; the app is easy to use; the app does not collect data; it is very easy to export/share my data in a format that I can easily use (i.e. text). Features I would like to have: (1) option to enable or disable iCloud sync. (2) option to export/share all reminders. (3) option to set recurrence for an entire list. (4) option to export or share all lists as one text (for example to share all lists to an email as text or export them into 1 file instead of separate files). (5) ability to move items from one list to another list. (6) ability to easily move items up/down in the list. (7) ability to sort items alphabetically.

(5),(6) It is possible to move by drag & drop even now. Please try it. (7) Consider implementation. If you have any other requests, please feel free to let us know!

very good

but does cost a furtune at least if you don't want to subscribe

Response from developer

Thank you rnetter! Reminder, iCloud Sync will be available via subscribe, but the rest of the features are free. Enjoy Purelist!

Love it! So simple

I don’t typically write reviews but I had to rave about this one. Very simple to do lists with a clean user interface can be hard to find. This one hits the mark. I’ve never found one I liked as much as this. This one is not unnecessarily complicated it’s so simple and has every feature you need for a well-rounded and effective to do list. It’s everything I want in a to do list and I’m very happy I discovered this app! :)
