Build a dated preparation checklist from your real lent and borrowed items, keep meeting notes together, and reopen the round when it is time to leave. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add physical-item loans under Lent or Borrowed. Open Rounds and choose New return round. 2. Name the round, choose its day and items, add an optional meeting note, and save. 3. Open the saved checklist, mark items prepared, and share the list. Confirm actual handoffs in the original loan records. Lent and borrowed records, repayment tracking, reminders and exports remain available. Find Statistics and the Payback Board under Insights. WHAT TO KNOW Preparation is a saved snapshot. Checking an item does not mark it returned, move money, send a message or create a reminder. Money loans are excluded. Up to 100 physical items per round and 30 saved rounds. Deleted or returned underlying loans remain explicitly identified. iPhone and iPad.
