### 5/5 — Checklists

*2024-07-07, version 1.0.5*

Good App.Thanks!

### 4/5 — Happy the app got fixed!

*2022-05-01, version 1.0.5*

I’ve had the paid version of this app for 10 years.  I mostly used it to do my grocery shopping. Then, as others have said, it suddenly stopped showing the words.  I  don’t know what happened.  But, it works again. Maybe because it was finally updated. But, anywho, I’m happy again. I like it’s simplicity. But, I would if there was an alarm to use if wanted. Then, I would give 5 stars instead of 4.

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY THIS APP!!!

*2019-11-06, version 1.0.3*

I bought it and it worked well for my purposes for a while, but after the most recent iPhone update all the words disappeared and haven’t come back! In other words, all my lists are there but the name of each list is missing and all of the words for every item in each list is missing rendering the entire app useless. I emailed support and have received no response. So basically all information that I had in my lists is gone forever!  I do NOT recommend this app!

### 5/5 — My favourite list app

*2017-02-01, version 1.0.3*

I love this app for lists I use a lot such as grocery shopping and packing lists. 

For a while it wasn't compatible with the new iOS updates so I tried loads of other apps and they were so frustrating and faffy in comparison. 

So happy they finally updated it and all my old lists were still there!

### 2/5 — Having problems since update

*2015-03-10, version 1.0.2*

This checklist has been very  useful. But unfortunately since the last iPhone update the home screen has gone blank, and I am no longer able to see my lists. The app keeps crashing too. I have tried to contact the email address given but it has bounced back to me. Hope someone can help because I really like this app.

### 3/5 — Um...

*2015-02-04, version 1.0.2*

This app is kinda cool, I like how you can make categories. But it really stinks that you can only make 10 items per list, and it costs $2.99 to make more, I deleted the app because of this, but if you could make more than 10, it would be a really good app, and if you don't think you need to put that many things on a list, you could find this app useful.

### 2/5 — Freezing up

*2014-12-30, version 1.0.2*

I have loved this app but lately it keeps freezing up on me. And on the initial screen with the different lists, I can't see the words. All I can see is the numbers to the right of the names of each list.

### 1/5 — Very Angry

*2014-11-23, version 1.0.2*

I used this app everyday, can't find another that worked as well as this one. Now my screen turns black and I'm not able to delete completed items now.  So DISAPPOINTED, please fix ASAP!!!!

### 1/5 — Great until. . .

*2014-10-29, version 1.0.2*

Loved this app could make a list of all the things I needed to keep track of until the main screen went black and brown so I could not see anything but the numbers next to the invisible names. And if I try to delete anything I get kicked out of the app entirely so it's now more or less useless now. And that after I wasted the money to buy the app.

### 1/5 — Terribly ineffective

*2013-05-16, version 1.0.2*

Only 10 items allowed before being prompted to buy full version. What a joke
