About

Notebook Lists

Features
Read full description

This is a simple list making app to give the look and feel of a book with pages of lists. This list making app is different from most in that it works horizontally vs. vertically. It's my first app attempt made as a hobby so expect bugs and such. Features: A True Notebook Feel: A vintage book cover, graph paper pages, and custom fonts provide an analog feel. Horizontal Column Layout: A smarter, horizontal grid for your items that's perfect for both iPhone and iPad. Smart Resume: The app automatically "opens" to the last list you were editing, just like a real notebook. List Templates: Get started instantly with built-in templates for "Packing" and "Grocery" lists, complete with default categories. Item Catalog: Tapping the 'box' icon lets you add items from a master catalog. Anything you add is automatically saved to the catalog for future use. Powerful List Management: Tap and hold any list to Edit, Delete, or Duplicate it (copying all its categories and items). Tap, hold, and drag lists on the main page to reorder them. Intuitive Item Controls: Tap, hold, and drag items to reorder them or move them between categories. Tap and hold a category name to Edit or Delete it. Simple tap-to-check functionality. Help On Every Page: A simple ? button on each screen explains all the hidden features, like drag-and-drop and context menus. Built for All Devices: Fully responsive design that is designed to work on iPhone and iPad, in both portrait and landscape. iCloud enabled to sync across your iPad and iPhone
