I Finally Found the Best App

Prior to switching to the iMac platform, I utilized a list maker that allowed the formation of multiple lists with sorting capacity. ListMonger allows the same abilities, but does it smarter while offering a variety of sorting capacities. Made my day- Two Thumbs up & 5 stars.

Meets all needs exceptionally

Unlike every other list app I have used, this one is designed PERFECTLY for repeat lists, like my packing list, event planning list, camping list, house cleaning list, holiday planning list. Starting with my clean packing list, I quickly flag every item I need, then hide the unflagged items, resort (by room where I keep them - using the custom field), and set to work gathering things and checking them off. When checked, they disappear, so my list gets shorter and shorter until I’m done! East to clear flags and checks and start over for next time. This app is incredibly well designed. There are many options - lists within lists, priority tags, color coding, date, cost - it simply does it all and does it simply. I stumbled on this years ago, and there is really nothing I can think of that would cause me to use something else.

Great App! But latest update a trouble for my iPad.

This is a great App with a lot of flexibility so you can choose every feature or just the ones you want!
Unfortunately, at the last update my iPad version ( which is the one I use the most), was a casualty and all my lists on my iPad vanished. Unable to restore any of them!! At least I have the updated version in my iPhone.

The BEST and most versatile list app

I have been using ListMonger for over years. It is the best. It is so easy to create and organize lists. You can color code and prioritize entries. Just get it, you will not be sorry. This app is free to download and ad free, so if you love it, send the developer a tip. If you click on info, there is an option to send a $1, $3 or $5 tip.

Scroll feature taken away ?

This is absolutely the best list making app out there. I’ve used it extensively for years. I would like to get one feature back however, that used to be there, but has been taken away. The app used to let you touch the title and bring down an active listing of the items in the list. Then you could scroll up and down quickly with your finger to the item you wanted to land on and let go and you were there. Why did you take that feature away ?

To the Developer: Thank you for your quick response. I had not even thought about using the iOS built in feature. That works well, and now I’m good to go with best list making app again.
