### 5/5 — Great app. Especially for families.

*2015-12-16, version 1.6.1*

We downloaded and bought upgrade a few months ago. Best money I spent all month. If anyone goes to store they can quickly check the list. Even better for Christmas and birthday lists. Probably the best app I paid for yet. 
Thanks.

### 5/5 — Perfect shared list all

*2015-12-13, version 1.6.1*

I wrote a review earlier but I don't see it here. Well it will probably show up later it was pretty glowing the bottom line is the perfect app for any couple or family who wants to get things done with a lot less talk! It's everything you need in a shared list app and nothing you don't. I love that you can literally see things getting crossed off the list as family members are completing their tasks, so that you can follow their progress. Awesome for grocery and household chore lists. One other item that I see as a potential area for enhancement would be that sometimes list items require more than one line so those items are hard to read... if developer can somehow accommodate for that, that would really be awesome & make things even better!

### 5/5 — Best Shared "Honey Could You" List

*2015-09-06, version 1.6.1*

We have looked a long time for a list we could both add/subtract and let the other know it was done or needed to happen.  Easy and effortless.

### 5/5 — Elegant

*2015-04-05, version 1.5.1*

(adjective) - the combination of simplicity and beauty in execution.

### 5/5 — Works as advertised

*2014-08-20, version 1.5.1*

I can keep running lists and share them with my husband.  Thus is helping us make rapid progress towards our goals.  Only thing is that I have to be careful to press the correct key or a new item just entered disappears from the list.  Just a teeny weeny learning curve-- like two min- other than that, I love it!

### 5/5 — Perfect Solution for any busy family!

*2014-06-15, version 1.5*

This app is great! I highly recommend. 

Only change I'd like is to have a recurring task feature that automatically pops up say every Monday or whatever you need with recurring task.

### 5/5 — Great event planner

*2014-05-30, version 1.4*

Wow. There are a lot of list sharing apps out there but this is the only one I can find that encrypts your info. I plan a lot of professional events which require sharing "to do" lists with many people but the lists contain sensitive information like addresses, phone numbers and email addresses. I was always wary of sending this information out...now I don't have to worry anymore about the information getting hacked! It's such a relief to know that I can protect my clients information.  Love this app and thanks to the developer for taking that extra step to ensure security.  I can see how this app would also be useful for wedding planning, etc, where you may want to share guest information without compromising your guests' info.  I agree with other reviewers that adding due dates would really help.

### 4/5 — Very good.

*2014-05-16, version 1.3*

If had due dates would be five stars.
Improved with update.
Would be good to add search.

### 4/5 — Keeps me organized

*2014-04-30, version 1.1*

Got so much going on...needed a way to share lists with friends/family/classmates.  Works great. Wish I could set due dates though. Other than that, what a useful app!

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2022-12-29, version 1.7.0*

Suddenly I couldn’t delete items. When I hit delete, it closed down site instead of deleting checked items.

### 1/5 — Nice if it worked

*2018-09-24, version 1.7.0*

It won’t let me create an account. Your techies need to watch over your product better

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-03-26, version 1.7.0*

We used this app for months then it stopped working

We upgraded both phones and bought one pro version

It won't even allow you to search for shared names so it has no functionality 

It has cost us hours of time setting up our lists around and now will cost hours more in trying to fix, failing, and converting all we have to another program 

Strongly advise against

### 1/5 — Can't Sign Up

*2017-03-17, version 1.7.0*

I keep trying to sign up to use the app and it gives me an error saying that "passwords can only contain letters and numbers". I've tried several different combinations of only letters and numbers (different lengths) and I just keep getting the same error message. Sounds like it would be a useful app if I could just use it.

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2016-09-17, version 1.6.2*

Could not sign up for app no matter how many attempts with valid characters for username... app threw error message for only valid characters A to Z and 0-9, first experience and app is broken.

### 3/5 — Works

*2020-05-03, version 1.7.0*

Works as advertised.
Would be better if user could send a list or export all lists.  Have to copy one item at a time to clipboard as is.

### 4/5 — Simple no frills app that works

*2019-11-28, version 1.7.0*

Great little app, very easy to use... But it is in dire need of an update. Please add the capacity to include attachments, such as photos, embedded into list items. 
Integrating this app better  with current IOS capacities would be great, like enabling it to show up as an option under the "Share" function (for example, from a browser, URLs could be added as list items).

TLDR: great little app, could really use an update.

### 4/5 — Needs ONE thing to be perfect!

*2016-10-19, version 1.6.2*

I actually love this app. It's very efficient for managing our to-do lists at work. The one thing I wish it had was a built-in calendar/reminder system. There are so many tasks that I set up that are on a timeline so I wish I could schedule notifications/reminders directly in the app instead of having to set them up in my personal reminders. Otherwise it's wonderful!

### 4/5 — Love this app for groceries

*2016-03-04, version 1.6.1*

Great app but I wish you could change a list from shared to not shared in the free version.

### 4/5 — Great for couples!

*2015-10-12, version 1.6.1*

My fiancé use this app for daily shopping, to do lists and when planning vacations together.  It is a must for busy couples in the modern world!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2021-01-31, version 1.7.0*

We keep in touch with family, have wish lists for Christmas, Birthdays etc. We travel extensively, this helps us with packing lists. We can keep the list for the next trip. Each AirBnb will have different amenities, we make lists to recall what we need to bring for each location. Also, of course we have grocery lists by each store that carries our favorite items.

### 5/5 — Great Encrypted App

*2018-10-27, version 1.7.0*

This app is great for sharing lists of course. But what makes it really unique is that it is fully encrypted even from the developer.

### 5/5 — Daily usage - most essential app

*2018-10-19, version 1.7.0*

My husband and I have been using this app for over three years. We use it every single day to communicate with each other about what it is that we need to buy at the grocery store or if we have things that we need to do around the house to keep track of them, and what’s done. The only thing that would make it better would be the ability to add attachments to the list. (E.g If we could take a photo of a specific product in our house that just ran out and add it to grocery list)

### 5/5 — No other like it

*2018-03-26, version 1.7.0*

The only todo list app that has both end to end encryption and app level encryption for data at rest.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2017-12-23, version 1.7.0*

My wife and I use the app for a list of things she would like me to get done around the house. It’s is amazing works very efficiently and gives updates to changes on lists to let each other know when something has been added and or completed. Works just as it says never had a problem with app.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2017-02-28, version 1.7.0*

I've used a couple of to do lists before a couple I liked but this one blew them all away. Only improvement I could suggest is when editing the list to delete completed to be able to select all at once instead of one at a time.

### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for

*2016-10-03, version 1.6.2*

Needed an app to share grocery and todo lists with the family. Works!

### 5/5 — Simple! Perfect!

*2016-09-17, version 1.6.1*

All I wanted was to share a grocery list and a to-do list with my husband without a bunch of other unnecessary stuff, which was hard to find. I got just that! Thank you for its clean, simple look as well. Yay!

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2016-09-11, version 1.6.1*

This is such a great way for my husband and I to stay up to date on everything from a list of bills and grocery lists to just simple reminders!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2016-05-05, version 1.6.1*

Love the functionality and that you can have numerous family members share the app and make updates instantly
