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.

Response from developer
Thank you for your review and comment. Please note that this functionality is still present, but ListMonger has adapted the newer system-wide standard scrolling behavior that was introduced in iOS 13. When swiping through a long list, a scroll bar will appear along the right-hand side. When this scroll bar appears, touch and hold the scroll bar to select it, then drag it up or down to scroll through the list. You can also tap at the top of the screen, just above the list name, to automatically scroll back to the top of the list. Incidentally, these behaviors will work on many scrolling apps built for iOS 13 and later.
Simply The Best
I don’t usually write reviews, but here I am. I’ve used this app FOR YEARS. One of the first I ever bought. Every time Apple does an update I’m afraid this little jewel will be left in the dust.
The app is easy to use and intuitive. Add what you need; check it off; rinse and repeat. Filtering you list ( like my “Camping” list) for remaining items is easy. Need to keep track of someone else’s list for your trip (spouse, kids, pets), just make a sublist. Easy.
Did I mention I LOVE this little do-exactly-what-it-says app?

OMG! It’s working again!!!
I think it was about two or three years ago that this app stopped working and I couldn’t find a way to get support. I couldn’t bear to delete the app, hoping that the developers would fix whatever was wrong. I thought I would do a search for it in the App Store just for the heck of it, and there it was!!!
*** I can’t tell you how happy I am about this!!
It’s been the BEST LIST APP I’ve ever used hands-down and I really missed it. Have been using another one that’s OK, but not on the level of this one.
Thank You Developers!!

Best shopping list on the market
I am so glad the developer has updated this app. I have been using it since the iPhone 3G, I have tried many others but nothing compares to its simplicity and the power of its flags and checks. Unfortunately the last few (unsupported) iOS versions it was crashing, but it didn’t matter, after trialling many others this app crashing was my preference to the others out there. Now it is supported again there are no crashes and I am in list heaven!
Create a master shopping list, flag an item when you need to buy it. When going shopping toggle flags and only the items you need appear. As you place the item in your shopping trolley unflag it and it disappears from the list. Perfection!
Now I can finally get my wife to download it and use it too.

Smaller text
I really like this app and have been using it for several years. However, the latest version (2020-5) has much smaller text-I haven’t found a way to make it bigger. Please fix. James
Thank you for this update
When IOS 14 came out I thought this app was broken for good. Thank you so much for doing the first update in 6 years. This new update looks and runs great. You guys are the best.
Love It!
I’ve been using this app since my iPhone 6, I use it daily, and I’m so happy for the update. Thank you!
Really Nice App
I have been using this app for a long time and am totally satisfied with it. It is an indispensable & powerful database considering it is for a smart phone. I use it for shopping lists and task lists primarily. I like being able to keep lists of categorized regular use items and checking them off as I complete or purchase them. As another user indicated, it would be nice to have a more than one deep search feature. However I personally haven't found a better database app for the money. Thx for a great app - one of my favorites!

Love this app!
Planned everything needed for two anniversary open houses and a graduation open house with this app. I also use for vacation packing lists, and to keep track of books we want to read or movie ideas for the family. For open houses, I could mark who was doing what, and email the lists to others (even if they didn't have the app or a smart phone) to let them know how plans were progressing. Love, love this app - it keeps me sane - and I hope the writers continue to support it with updates.

Great APP!!
I use this APP every single day for important info, tasks, movies, shopping lists, etc. It's great for all kinds of lists. I've used it for 3-4 years. Support for this app is great. They really reach out to you to solve the issue.
I have one request: is there a chance in the near future I can synch my iPhone and iPad?

It's good, but could be great
I've always liked this app. It's got a lot of great qualities, but falls short in certain user experience areas. It's just awkward to sort for example. Yes, you can sort, but if you want to sort by title for example, you have to go through the sort process after every entry. Awkward and inefficient. This is but one of the many oddities of the app. Search is another, as it doesn't seem to be universal. If I have sublists, I want the search to find what I'm looking for when I search in the mother list, even if what I'm looking for is 3 lists deep. Odd, odd and more odd.
Like I said, I like the app, don't use it regularly anymore, don't have it on my home page anymore either. I now find it more useful for niche operations such as when I require list nesting.
The shame of it is, with the right tweaks this app could be incredible. I guess that would require an entire rewrite though, and this developer doesn't seem open to that. Oh well.

Outstanding Checklist Program
ListMonger is an outstanding checklist program. Has nearly any feature you could want and then some. It's simple to use, yet has much depth. I highly recommend it!
Still, that always some unique features certain users such as myself would like to have.
Two I would desperately like to see implemented in a future version are a (1) "lock checkbox" and/or (2) "one-time only" features, as follows:
Certain checklists I reuse daily include one-time only entries, which I don't want erased/cleared with "clear all checks in this list" after they've been selected. (1) This would be a manual way of locking/unlocking the checkbox, perhaps next to the "Check" option in the Detail View (and using the same small lock icon used for password protection). With (2) the checkbox simply locks automatically upon selecting this option.
Another VERY handy feature would be the addition of some method to also "clear all checks in this list, inc. nested" from the selection point and downwards.
Many thanks for creating such a wonderful checkless program. I look forward to seeing what the next version includes. Cheers!

Super App
Really useful app with multiple different use's. Love it, thank you.
Great App - could use some features
I use this app a lot. It is stable and works well. There are a couple of things I constantly wish for. 1. When setting a sort order, the program should remember that. Saving the order doesn't seem to do anything.
2. I use a bluetooth keyboard. It would be very nice to add new items with a keystroke "+"

Have tried them all
Total list junkie. Have spent way too much money and time trying to find the perfect app. ListMonger is the best. Moved to first page of phone. Used every day. Love it. Keep up the great work
