A SIMPLE, NON-COMMERCIAL TODO LIST MANAGER Re:List allows you to quickly create, reuse, reset and copy lists so you can efficiently organize your TODO items. Whether it's your frequently used shopping list or a packing list for your vacation, Re:List is here to help you to stay organized. With Re:List, you'll never forget to pack your sunblock or winter hat again! Re:List allows you to copy single items and entire lists, you can check, reset and delete items, sort by priority, name, date - you have complete control over your TODO lists. Your lists are always with you, even when you switch devices (this is optional and requires sign-in using your Apple ID to work). Lists and items that you use frequently can be protected from accidental deletion by marking a list as locked. Items of locked lists can still be checked off, changed and copied, but they cannot be deleted or moved from the locked list, which makes a locked list perfect to use as a template or recurring checklist. Re:List is the right app for getting more things done! Enjoy your new found freedom and thank you for checking off with Re:List! FLEXIBLE AND REUSABLE LISTS - Reset lists - Reuse lists - Copy lists - Lock lists - Copy items between lists - Move items between lists - Drag and Drop to move lists ITEM SORTING - Sort items manually via drag and drop - Sort items by priority, name, date, etc. LIST ITEM MANAGEMENT - Tap (+) to add new items - Create multiple items in a row - Swipe left to delete an item - Swipe right to move or copy an item to another list - Tap an item to view and edit its details - Filter items based on name, notes and tags - Prioritize items META-INFORMATION - Add notes to items - Add tags to items - Timestamps for creation date and most recent change SYNCHRONIZATION - Sign-in using your Apple ID to sync your lists across all your devices SUPPORTED LANGUAGES - English (default) - German - Spanish - Portuguese (European) - French - (more language may follow eventually) Re:List is an ongoing project and work-in-progress and will occasionally receive new features. ABOUT ME Hi, I'm Julian, the developer of Re:List. I am a professional software developer and IT consultant from Germany. I created this app, because I wanted to regain the power over my frequently used lists and items. Eventually, I got tired of rewriting shopping and packing lists all over again. There are already hundreds of TODO list and checklist apps, but none are perfect (neither is Re:List) and entirely fit my needs. So, I developed Re:List and it was my goal to share it with all of you completely for free. If you would like to support me, report a bug or feature request or if you would like me to develop an app for you, don't hesitate to contact me via e-mail: epj.apps@gmail.com

The problem with most task and list managers that most of them emphasize graphics and good looks over functionality. Kanban style block desktops and apps which require a lot of screen real estate to show individual tasks look really great but the information density is very poor and requires you to scroll all over to find the main thing you want out of a task manager which is ‘what are the most important things that I need to do today and in which order should I work on them’. See the Support button or review www.pmpsbff.com for more detailed information. PMP'S BFF is a companion app for the Mac App PMP's Best Friend. It is tailored for quick review and entry while the Mac program works better for lots of data entry and administrative tasks such as mass update, import/export, and save/restore. With this app, you can: # Quickly review top tasks on the list and easily make notes against them, mark them as done, and create follow on tasks # Very fast entry of new apps with a single button to put default settings of the task into an inbox for further review and includes audio data entry #. Connect with other iPhone, iPad, and Mac sessions and share data All in all, a good companion piece to supplement the Mac version of this PIM. Check out www.pmpsbestfriend.com for more detailed information or search for the app on the Mac app store.
