Worth knowing
Do!
- The free app shows ads, and removing them is a one-time purchase listed at $20.00 on the US App Store.
- There are apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Android only; the vendor lists no web or desktop version.
- Sync means signing in with the same account in the same app on each device, and the vendor sells several separate editions.
- Backups are made through Dropbox or email; the listings mention no automatic cloud backup.
Lists To do
- iPhone and iPad only: sync runs between iOS devices on the same iCloud account, and no Android, web or desktop version is listed.
- Sharing sends a list or an image of it; the listing does not describe lists that several people edit together.
- The App Store lists English as the app's only language.
- Extra theme colors and stickers are a $1.99 in-app purchase.
Key features
Do!
- Double-tap to check off
- A task is typed in as a line and marked done with a double tap, accompanied by sounds modeled on pen and paper.
- Themes and fonts
- Themes and fonts can be chosen to style the list, much as one would pick a favorite notebook.
- Groups, colors and pins
- Work, study and shopping can sit in separate groups, with colors to tell tasks apart and pins to keep chosen tasks in sight.
- Repeats and reminders
- Tasks can repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, and reminders can be added to the ones that must not be missed.
- Home screen widgets
- Widgets keep the list on the home screen, so it can be checked without opening the app.
- Sync, app lock and backups
- Signing in with the same account syncs tasks across devices. The app can be locked with a passcode or Face ID, and data backed up through Dropbox or email.
Lists To do
- Lists and checklists
- Lists hold checkable items and take one of more than 150 category icons. Checked items can be kept at the bottom, and a whole list can be checked or unchecked at once.
- Sorting, pinning and moving
- Lists sort alphabetically, by creation date or by hand. A list can be duplicated, items moved between lists, and important lists or items pinned to the top.
- Reminders and upcoming feed
- Reminders are one-time or recurring: daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually. One feed shows the upcoming items from every list.
- iCloud sync
- Lists sync automatically between iOS devices signed in to the same iCloud account, with no setup.
- Statistics and badge count
- Each list shows its percentage complete and its unchecked count, and the app icon's badge can show the unchecked items for one list or for all lists.
- Share and print
- A list can be shared from inside the app, captured whole as an image to share or to set as a lock screen, or printed with AirPrint.
