Ads are obnoxious

Advertisements take up half the screen and pop up out of nowhere while I’m trying to use the checklist. I have to delete this app.

Stop screwing up a good app.

Why did you remove the filter? Only an idiot would make the app less useful.

Terrific app

Excellent for fellow OCD-havers. Honestly 1000% worth the ad-free option for how much I use it.

Simple yet amazing

I wanted a way to organize my shopping lists and to-do lists that was not the iPhone notes app.. this app has been easy to use and so great!! Love it

Inappropriate ad content

I set this up to help my child master routines, but I had to delete it after just a few days because of the repeated inappropriate, adult-content ads. So disappointing.

Helllloooooooo

Items no longer check off, they just delete. I’ve been waiting for a fix, but it’s been way too damn long.

Used Daily For Years, The Ads Are Annoying… Irritating To Use Now

The ads used to be a small non-invasive bar along the bottom. They never disrupted the use of the app. Now, frequently, the ads expand down into the space where you are trying to work on the list. If you try to close them out, it’s easy to accidentally miss the tiny “x” button which opens the ads in a new tab, causing you to have to close out the tab and return back to the checklist. This happens almost every time you go to work on the list. It is beyond annoying and it makes this really irritating to use now. It was otherwise fine. On another note, something that would be a nice addition would be an undo button of some sort, so that if you accidentally make a mistake and delete something for example, you can “undo button” fix it, instead of it being lost forever as it currently would be. Thanks for reading my feedback.

😑

Please undo what ever stupid update you thought was great. Instead of crossing out items it now just deletes itself. This is not helpful!

Great

Super simple checklist! Cheap to have no ads as well but ads aren’t that annoying!!

アップデートでポップな色遣いに変わりましたね。私はこちらの方が好きです。男性の方やホーム画面をシックに決めてる方にはショックかもですが…。
豆な更新をしてくださる作者さんなので、応援しています。

#1 Checklist

This is one of the easiest and most intuitive checklist apps that I’ve found. It’s easy to create new lists. Easy to add, delete, and re-order items within a list. It is simply essential when going to the grocery store. I use it for running errands, and I also use when packing for vacations so I don’t forget anything. If you’re writing lists by hand get the “Checklist”!

Great app, needs daily repeat feature

Really like how simple and clean this app is. The template feature is especially useful for recurring tasks. The only thing missing for me is an option to automatically repeat a checklist daily. Right now, I have to manually import a template every day, which gets a bit tedious. Adding a “repeat daily” option would make this app perfect!

simplistic, one features needed

it’s really easy to use this app, it’s definitely my favorites since i’ve started using lists, and there’s no silly subscription. very helpful!!

Very limited

Extremely hard to figure out how to make multiple lists. Either the functionality is not there or I don’t see it. The “template” function is useless because it just adds to the only list there is.

Perfect

Simply amazing

Phishing ads in app

Been using the app for a while now, had it open while walking around the store, looked down and seen a message on my phone telling me my Apple I D had been $350. Had another pending 350$ charge on my debit for my credit card that hadn't processed so it made it seem like the pop up was legit. Had to call Apple to realize it was phishing

Invasive ads

Was a great app until recent update. Now there is an invasive ad that takes up half the entire screen. Do not download!!

Great simple app

No bells or whistles, no frills. If you want fancy capabilities, this isn't it. But if you want a dead simple app for making a checklist (with nested lists if desired) this is the Perfect App for you.

Adds are annoying of course, but pay 5$ and they're gone forever. I did, super totally worth it.

Love this app for simple things like a travel/luggage checklist, business meeting checklist, etc.

Highly Recommend!!

Used to be great

I have been using this app for years. Such a simple, straightforward checklist. But the recent updates to how ads are displayed in the app make me want to delete. They take up the top half of the page so I can’t see what is actually on my checklist. It was such a great app for so long, but I guess I’ll have to find something else to use now.
