MAKE LISTS OF ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING

Paperless is a simple but powerful app for making lists. Use it to create to do lists, make grocery lists, take notes, write an outline of a story, prepare notes for a presentation, make a list of gift ideas, plan a vacation... or anything else youd want to make a list for.


BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED

Assign a fun icon to each of your lists - there are over 450 to choose from. You can also select from 30 themes to customize the apps design to your liking.


SIMPLE AND VERSATILE

Paperless is easy to use with a clean, elegant and well thought out interface. Each list can either be a checklist or a regular list without checkboxes, making a wide variety of uses possible.


REALLY HELPS YOU GET THINGS DONE

For checklists and todo lists, many people prefer using Paperless over traditional "getting things done" apps - or, they use it in addition to one. There are no due dates or priority settings, so youre left to focus on the actual tasks at hand, rather than waste time changing those settings when your priorities change. Instead, if a particular task becomes important, you can simply move it to the top of the list.


AUTOMATIC BACKUP AND SYNCING

Automatically backup your lists and sync them between iOS devices via a free Dropbox account.

PRAISED BY THE PRESS

"Paperless deserves a spot on your iPhone" - Lex Friedman, Macworld (4.5 out of 5 mice rating)

"Paperless has a permanent spot on the first page of my iPhones home screen... it will probably earn a similar spot on yours." - Marianne Schultz, AppShopper

"... a good way to ensure things get done at your own pace, free of the disappointment of missing deadlines." - Nick Spence, Macworld UK

"Ive been trying many To Do apps since iPhone 1.0 -- from the expensive Things to Toodledo and others -- and I dont use any of them regularly. Most just require too much effort. Paperless is the first one Ive found that hits that sweet spot between being simple enough youll actually use it and powerful enough to be useful." - Marc Zeedar, REALbasic Developer Magazine (4.8 out of 5 rating)

"This is one nice-looking list / task app... As a basic list app, the beautiful Paperless reigns supreme." - Bonnie Eisenman, 148apps.com (4 out of 5 rating)


PRAISED BY USERS

"Best app ever - The most incredibly useful app Ive come across. Simple, effective and bloody marvelous!!!"

"The simplicity of the interface and the flexibility given to the user is perfection."

"Simply loved it - Best app Ive ever downloaded, my life is so organized now! ..."

"After having tried a good deal of apps to get myself more organized - both free and paid - it is clear that this tops them all. Other apps presented a kind of novelty; I could fool myself into thinking that I was more organized, but it was never long before I abandoned them because it was obvious that they consumed unnecessary time. Paperless, however, has truly helped. It is streamlined, it is simple, it is sumptuous"

Pros and cons of Paperless: Lists + Checklists app for iPhone and iPad

Paperless: Lists + Checklists app good for

The app is really great. However, its necessary a desktop version as soon as possible. Then it will be perfect
It only lacks an option to import pictures. Not as decorative backgrounds, but to illustrate each goal in checklists, under the descriptive notes.
This software is very light and powerful. I have been using it to organize my trips and personal activities. I recommend.
Multiple work on lists would be useful. So person A and person B share a list and A can add something and B can add or delete stuff as well.
Easy to handle, practical, fast, full version (of course) nicer than free one but even so, free version is great as well. Mailing lists is just fab and incredibly practical!
This app is great for writing what you need to travel. I have used it for making camping, biking and general holiday lists. Very easy to use!

Some bad moments

I have instaled the full version on my iPhone. I did a few lists and when I activate the dropbox syncing, the application never stop syncing and I cant use it anymore.
I started to dislike this app. My new list items disappear. This messes up my work. Wastes my time and effort.
List items are just there. No categories or sub headings. Would be nice to use some of the icons for list items ie carrots for carrots. Does not prompt for qtys or units, you have to type all that ie 2 x 1 pound bags. More work than most free lists
Just lost my todo list that Id built up over months after a mis-sync of some sort with another device. So use the app, but be careful with the synching.
When you upgrade from the "lite" version, your lists dont transfer over. You have to manually everyone them like it is 1876.
I think this app has an icon to offend everyone. Sadly, there is no way to get rid of the offensive icons. Also, it doesnt wrap longer text, so you have to tap each row to see everything. Lastly, importing fails to return everything to its original state. I hope the developer will at least add a way to remove offensive icons and provide an option to wrap text, but I fear they may no longer improve this app as they are trying to sell a different app instead (one that does NOT look good to me). I hope I am wrong and they will continue to improve this app. With the above issues fixed, I would probably like this app a lot.
