Whatever you type becomes a color-coded board. ■ No input forms You don't add items one by one through a form. Just type one item per line, like in a notes app. Wallet Phone Keys (blank line) Charger Earbuds A blank line starts a new group with its own color. Groups have no names: the separator is a blank line, the difference is color. That's all. ■ See it as a board Your text becomes a board of tiles instead of a long list. You see everything at once, so you never hunt for what's left. Choose 2 to 5 columns. ■ Tap to fill Tap a tile when it's done and its color deepens, with a haptic tap so you know it registered without looking. Checks stay until you clear them, so the same board can be used again and again. When everything is done, the bar above the board says "All set!". Tap it to clear the board for next time. ■ Duplicate to start fast Swipe a list to the right to copy it. Your own weekend-trip list is a better starting point for a trip abroad than any template. Only the text is copied, not the checks. ■ Remembers when you last used it When a board is complete, the date appears in the list, so you know when you last used it. ■ Back to plain text Export any board as plain text. There's no special format, so you can paste it into mail, notes or chat. The person you send it to just pastes it into "Add list" to get the same board. Bulleted text from other apps works too. ■ Colors with one tap 10 color schemes; the arrows shift the hues a step at a time. Turn "Color" off to show everything in one color. Each list keeps its own colors. Every scheme is measured for readable contrast, and the app follows your text size setting, using fewer columns when text is large. ■ Read aloud, hands-free Tap "Read" and your unchecked items are read one by one, over and over, until everything is done. Grab what you hear and tap its tile. Choose the pause and one of 5 voices. ■ Uses • Packing for a trip • Your everyday bag • Shopping • Tools before a job • Locking up before you leave • Checking an emergency kit ■ Your text stays on your device Nothing you write leaves your iPhone. No account, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics. The app does not connect to the internet at all.
