One enhancement I would recommend, therefore, is that any additions are automatically sorted into the list based on its current sort criteria, or alternatively an option in the settings to give the user that option. Should you fail to follow my thoughts then please get in touch, thank you . ### 4/5 — Very good *2023-07-15, version 5.2.6* It’s a very good App, I love it. I use it almost every day. I like that it offers flexibility and list are totally customizable, but it’s a pity that it doesn’t allow emojis, enriched text nor attached images. ### 5/5 — Flexible custom lists *2022-06-27* I love the ability to create my own customized lists for my needs. ### 5/5 — Great App *2022-06-20* For anyone who is serious about keeping lists or who just wants to a way to get or stay organized, ListPro is the best. It may not be one of the most glamorous of apps, but it is one of the the most useful. Custom lists can be created, personalized in a variety of ways, and organized into folders. There is a companion program for Windows, to which lists can be synced via WiFi. The Windows version does come at an additional cost, but it's great for anyone who doesn't want to sync via the cloud or pay a subscription fee to do so. ### 2/5 — Most Reviews are SUBJECTIVE *2022-01-31* Including this one. Having said that, I think this app is ugly, has cluttered and confusing UI and inefficient overall UX (including NO warnings to prevent undesirable MULTIPLE entries for the same item). And there is no way to TRY BEFORE YOU BUY. Skip! I only looked at this app in the first place because I had to find replacement shopping list app for the one I had used previously for 10 years—no longer compatible with iOS 15. This app is way too complicated and “featured” for me. The app would not “get out of the way.” I TRIED to like it, but using it was a headache. Ended up sticking with AnyList. Try it, for FREE. Cleaner, neater UI. Good looking app that is easy to use for shopping and tasks and smaller projects. For BIG projects, of course, NOTHING beats OmniFocus. **Developer response:** Hi Brian, We're sorry that ListPro is not what you were looking for, but glad you have an app that fits your needs!

This app allows VERY rapid custom list creation with whatever columns / fields are needed AND, most importantly, is extremely fast to use for data capture and updating of new list data or setting values (or flags, dates, quantities, etc.) in existing data. Highly recommend and MUCH faster in daily use than other apps to create, manage and update list(s) data. Excellent. I would also like to commend ilium software for same-day excellent reply to my support / general enquiry question today. They did NOT ask me to write this, nor mention reviews at all. I thought I had left a similar five star review many years ago, but I can no longer see it - and it is time for another in any case. Thank you. Excellent app. ### 5/5 — List Pro *2021-06-05, version 5.2.3* Great app. ### 5/5 — Reliable and user friendly *2021-02-26* This is my goto app for lists. It’s very reliable and flexible because you can design the list: number of fields and types, the name of the fields, and the order. There is a pc version so you can share with you desktop and sync wirelessly, I have it on my desktop, laptop, iPad and iPhone. I have download info from websites into a text or .csv file and then turn them into lists. This app has been consistently updated for the last 10+ years or more. Very reliable and easy to use. And you only have to pay a one-time purchase price. No subscriptions needed. ### 4/5 — Awesome app *2020-07-31* I’ve used this app for years! I love how easy it is to create my own customized databases. I use for keeping track of everything from grocery lists to collections. I breed flowers for a hobby and even keep track of my plant genetics. I love that I can take the data out to the garden with my phone, collect measurements and other data, then synch with my pc and my Mac. I also love that I can export/import in .csv files. The only drawbacks- I can’t store pictures with the data or create embedded lists. I use a competing product for that kind of data collection but that product doesn’t have the PC or Mac versions for synchronized lists and backup. I would love to have one solution to store all the information I need to track and have the ability to import/export so that I can transition to a single tool easily. ### 2/5 — Lost its Luster *2020-06-25* This used to be the best List App on the market. Been using it close to 20 years. From Palm Pilot to Handspring Visor. From Windows Mobile Phone to iPhone. Including synchronization to my laptop. The app is no longer supported and not worthy of the $20 fee to have it on your computer & phone. Items get deleted after I enter them. Things I used to do 15 years ago like copy items from one list to another or duplicate a whole list can no longer be done on the iPhone. You have to sync and do it on a computer. It was great when I was traveling to be able to make new lists on the phone or device I was using. All that capability was lost when the developed it for the iPhone. No alarms anymore, no cut & paste, no list duplication, etc. on the iPhone. It’s where 90% of Business and entry is done now. Best you can do is look for something else. eWallet is decent but ListPro is no longer pro. It is aggravating. I tried contacting developer, Illium Software, numerous times, never an answer. Would have preferred they kept it up and charged a $1 to $2 annual subscription fee to maintain support. Am finding Apps on iPhone have better capabilities now. Especially since all the really powerful features are gone! Not good when your data disappears. Used to be even if a device or the program crashed, your last data was still there. Now I finish putting it in, close the App and poof! It’s gone! I have to take screen shots and then re-enter the data. If I forget, oh well, data is gone. LOOK FOR SOMETHING ELSE. Save yourself the aggravation. **Developer response:** We do continue to support ListPro for iOS and ListPro for Windows! And we respond to every email we receive, but it sounds like we are not getting your emails! Please contact us directly this one time using Support at iliumsoft.com, instead of the form, just so we get connected. And use "Attn: Lee" in the Subject line. I look forward to hearing from you! Lee at Ilium Software ### 2/5 — IOS 13 problems *2020-03-07, version 5.2.3* Cannot mail a list anymore. Also, why can you not message a list as text? ### 5/5 — Nothing Better After 20+ Years *2020-02-16* Recently, I found a note I had made in Listpro dated from the year 2000. That's a long time. Over time, I've spent days looking for alternatives that would support images AND do the plethora of things this app does. To date, nothing is better for taking and organizing notes in a variety of ways. We may not be able to add pictures in Listpro, but past that, it's packed with easy to use customizations. I'm thrilled that it's still on the iPhone. ### 5/5 — Powerful, but easy and good looking list org. *2020-01-29* Syncs iPhone to optional PC prg fast. Has flag and check fields, many templates and easy to create your own lists. Can import and export lists. Have used for years and the syncing is so smooth now. Very handy for repetitive tasks like trips where you can use just a subset of your large list and check off the subset items. ### 5/5 — Wow! *2019-08-31* I can’t believe how good it is! The simplest and most versatile tool around. I have tried app after app without finding anything really satisfying but this is the one. Do try it! You have the list, the item, the note, you can increment, check out, highlight, move around, filter, all with minimal gestures and for a clear and simple result. Even in the freebie! Just wow! ### 5/5 — Great Product *2019-06-13* I have used the Windows version for years. Enjoy the iPhone version and sync. ### 4/5 — Emailing lists needs fixed *2019-05-02* I’ve used Ilium software for years and I’m a big fan. However; for some reason now when emailing the shipping list to myself or family member to pick things up, ONLY the list is emailed. This defeats the purpose honestly if the “department” isn’t emailed or can’t be printed out along with the list. For a list to be “productive”, it has to have the option of what fields to include on print or email. Please fix or add this. I’ve asked before with no resolution. I assure you, many of your users will be happy with this option and make it easier to recommend this app to others because it’ll have met all the required guidelines for a great list maker. Thank you **Developer response:** Thank you for your comments about ListPro! I have passed your suggestion on to our developers! ### 5/5 — Still awesome! *2019-04-14* I left a review for this 8 yrs ago, and it’s still the most useful list app out there. I use it daily. Any plans of putting it on the Apple Watch? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Frozen *2025-12-04, version 5.2.6* Is this legit? Installed, paid and it won’t work. Frozen probably a scam. DO NOT GET! ### 1/5 — Poor *2025-11-07* Did not get to use this stupid app. I had previously used it. After loading I click I have used the app before. It does completely nothing. You are forced to go through tutorials. Bad start! Not interested in going any further. ### 1/5 — Won’t work in iOS 18.3.2 *2025-03-14, version 5.2.6* App freezes ### 1/5 — Updates *2018-11-10* They ask for suggestions but Never implement them 2015 they have had long enough?? ### 1/5 — 싱크가 안되요 *2018-05-15* 아무리 해도 싱크가 안되요. 걍 아이튠즈에서 집어넣기할 수 있게 해주세요. ### 1/5 — CheriAnn *2017-05-29, version 5.2.1* Just downloaded this app thinking I'd found just what I wanted. You can add as many sub folders as you want! However, (and this is a HUGE however!) I need to be able to have this on both my iPhone AND my iPad AND to be able to synch between them. Not between iPhone and PC. ### 1/5 — Still doesn't sync between devices *2017-01-13, version 5.2.1* Update Jan17: Still can't sync/use across devices. PLEASE add this ability! Great list maker, but does not sync between my iPhone and iPad. I do not want to buy the PC version and run sync from PC. Why can't my updates I make on iPhone be seen on my wife's iPhone (e.g. Grocery list) or when I use my iPad (e.g. build my pacing list on iPhone during the week. Then use iPad when packing)??? HUGE missing feature. ### 1/5 — I used to love this app... *2016-11-13, version 5.2.1* Like one other review I saw, I used this app all the time for EVERYTHING! I even used it to track features I was looking in for a home when I was moving. On the PPC it was powerful and easy to use. Now on iOS is is virtually impossible for me to figure out beyond the basic functions. I'm really sad that I can't use it anymore. I simply don't have the time to research and figure out how to use the basic functions I once used and loved. People who love it now have no idea of its former glory. ### 1/5 — Contrary opinion here: *2016-06-02, version 5.2.1* I used to run this years ago on a PPC, and it was about the most important program I’ve owned. I missed it dreadfully when I moved to Mac and it wasn’t available. However, after recently discovering this iOS version, I’m shocked at the glowing reviews. The interface to enter items is sickeningly convoluted and overburdened with extra taps and maneuvers. If there’s a better way, and it interfaces like it did on the old PPC, I’m too dim to figure it out after hours of fiddling around with it. If I have to wrestle with an app, its poorly programmed. I give it one star, and as someone who longed for the moment I could run this program again- I’m pained to do so. ### 1/5 — It works great until you upgrade phones *2015-10-28, version 5.2* I followed the instructions on to back up ListPro on my iOS device. I still can't figure it out. Switching to a different app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app *2025-02-07* Been using this forever. Use it for grocery lists, drug store lists, to do lists, organizing party lists… all kinds of stuff. I can email the list to my husband. My only wish is that it could create a text list I could text or airdrop. Not a showstopper. ### 5/5 — Excelente desde hace más de 20 años *2024-11-23, version 5.2.6* La conozco desde windows ce en las iPaq y agendas HP. Y es una excelente aplicación de listas. Y permite sincronizar con las pc. Solo falta que sincronice a la nube entre varios dispositivos ### 5/5 — Best App Ever. I use daily. *2024-02-20, version 5.2.6* This is absolutely the best app I’ve found for lists. I love that you can change the sort list from any category / field. It’s like the best database ever! I have over 30 different lists but use it primarily for grocery shopping / luggage packing and my crafting business. I had the desktop version too as it’s so quick and easy to do a major change to a large list (over 600 items) through excel and the desktop version. If I could give this 10 stars I would. I live the fact that you can colour code items too. When I’m in the supermarket I can easily see if I’ve forgotten something from veg section as they’re coloured green. Blue form the freezer etc. So convenient to rearrange the supermarket aisles depending on which shop I go to. I’d love it if pictures could be added in the notes section but otherwise I’m very happy with this. The list of user databases is also handy and I’ve used of them too. For anyone who loves a list - this is so much more versatile and well worth it. ### 5/5 — 9 years and going strong *2023-12-19* I’ve used this app to track Christmas gifts for 9 years. It’s simple and thank you for always updating it. Also, it’s fun nostalgia to see what I bought the kids that long ago. I’ve tried finding other list apps and nothing has ever beat this. Thank you. ### 5/5 — ListPro *2023-05-04* First started using ListPro with my PP over 20yrs ago and will never give it up. I can customize almost any type of list I can imagine and back up to my computer. The only thing I’d love for them to add is a picture feature so I can pictures to my things to get or grocery list. ### 5/5 — Great App for lists *2022-11-19* I have been using List Pro since I was using a Palm Pilot 22 years ago and the app is great. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2022-09-14, version 5.2.6* Can be perfectly customized to your needs very easily. Unlimited variety of possible templates can be done. After many years of usage I give a perfect 10! ### 5/5 — The very best list app! *2022-09-13* A remarkably full-featured app. I particularly like the ability to create numerous master lists, flag the portions I want to use each time, filter so I only see the flagged items, and then use the check-boxes as I work through the list. If you make lists at all, this is a fabulous addition to your apps - especially for only $4.99! **Developer response:** Thank you for the very kind words! One quick correction: ListPro for iPhone does cost $4.99 (at less than $5, close to free!) ### 5/5 — Latest update *2022-07-02* Keyboard now covers typing area in note field so when you get to the bottom of the field you can no longer see what you are typing. This is incredibly frustrating. I have been using this software for over 20 years in windows, windows Mobile and IOS and it has always been a 5 star app. I am sorry to say the last updates have had careless issues, prior update blacked out the icons at the bottom of the screen, corrected in this update thanks. Please correct this Issue ASP. 7/1/22 Revised to 5 Stars. Developer quickly responded and fixed the issue. Thank you, this is now again the App we have loved and relied on for the last 20 years. **Developer response:** The "blacked out icons" on a couple of screens were actually iOS 15 changes that affected ListPro's custom controls — those were all update for iOS 15 in the previous release. The latest ListPro release (5.2.5) fixes the issue you reported, where on some devices, the Notes panel didn't scroll properly. (Thanks for catching that issue!) If you do run into anything else, please do let us know at https://iliumsoft.com/contactus. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2022-07-02* As w/ E-wallet a phoneminal app. When you stopped updating for yrs I thought it was gone forever. I started using Wunderlist until it was bought by MS. Microsoft didn't get that folks just need a great list app not a To-do App. MS To-do is crap like many of the other apps they've bought up and tried to shoehorn into their mold. Keep up the great work w/ your apps but PLEASE DO NOT SELL. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
