Paperless: Lists + Checklists App Reviews

Using this app for my grocery list is huge. I can enter a new item, then create my own notes as to what store, price, quantity, etc. Once Ive purchased the item and uncheck it from my list, it date and time stamps it. I can email the list to myself to save paper and see if the price and quantity are going up or down. Useful especially for my medications. On a budget and no ins., one of my meds increased by $46 from my last purchase six months ago.

Paperless is a great app. Both my wife and I use it a lot. There are two things I wish I could do that make it miss out on that 5th star: you cant paste images into item notes, and I wish there were a way to do nested grouping within a list. I get around the latter by making items to use as visual separation with text like "-------". Not pretty but it works.

Due to surgery on my right hand Ive been unable to write and organize my life on my myriad of lists. I downloaded 6 or 7 apps and many, although good, were cumbersome given my current need. Love it after 3 days, syncs from iPad to iPhone, and easy to use. If one wants an easy replacement and organization for written lists buy this app..make as many lists as you wish, check(cross off) when done, move to top to prioritize, move or copy to "Today" for a reminder and, view a summary of your life on one screen.

I absolutely love this app, super easy to use, beautiful to look at, and easy to remember! The only thing I would love is to be able to input pictures. :)

This is the one app I cannot do without. I have always lived by my lists, but unfortunately they were cumbersome in notebooks, or if on post-its or back of envelopes, always getting lost. This is perfect! The app is simple to use and easy to manipulate.

I love this app. Easy to create lists, alphabetize within the list and alphabetize list titles by moving the titles up or down. Includes many icons to fancy up your list titles if you want. So easy to use you probably wont need to read the instructions. I downloaded the free version and went right back and purchased the full one. I wish I had found this app first when I was searching for an easy to use list app that lets you alphabetize. Now Im going to have to think up more things to list just so I can use it !!!

Paperless is: more colorful, with icons, more themes. better note space within each item. no due dates, but I can just type one in. since this is mostly for personal use, I dont usually need a due date. you can edit a "completed task", without unchecking it, which I surprisingly need to do sometimes. there is no inbox, or starred, or other folder stuck on the main screen that I dont want there. nice to have the option of lists without checkboxes.

I absolutely love this app! I use it in almost every part of my life: daily to-do lists, long-term to-do lists, shopping lists, reading lists, packing lists, etc., etc. I would give it 6 stars if it allowed for these three things: 1. Move or copy an item to multiple lists at the same time. 2. Move more than one item at a time within a list. 3. Reminders!!!

Does everything you want it to! Great interface and colorful look.

Very user friendly. Use it all the time. One of the best apps on my phone.

Love this App! I prefer it to the Ikuru App. Please add fingerprint ID option to security procedures and allow for sub-lists in addition to Notes. Thank you!

Use this app everyday, keeps me organized and I no longer need to keep track of To Do small sheets of paper. Like the copy feature and all the icons.

Paperless is one of the four apps (along with email/messaging, calendar, and browser) that I use repeatedly every day. After trying the developer’s new app, Ikiru, for a week, Paperless remains my clear preference. The Paperless home screen shows not only my lists but also the first several items in each list. I usually have 3-4 lists of action items. With Paperless I can see the priority items at the top of each list with a single glance as soon as I open the app. In addition, when I open an individual list, Paperless shows more items on the screen than does Ikiru. So here too, I see more information at one glance without scrolling. Ikiru does have features not found in Paperless. But for the ones that would be helpful to me, I have reasonably equivalent and effective work arounds in Paperless. I handle items with due dates by creating a list with entries prefixed with the due date in YY/MM/DD format and sort the list alphabetically to put it in chronological order. Of course, I have to manually keep track of the current date. Rather than reuse existing lists, I make a working copy of those lists and leave the original untouched. That also allows me to delete items that are not relevant in a specific situation rather than mark them complete. Ikiru also allows lists within lists (for example, a packing list within a trip to do list). But in those instances where I could use that feature, I prefer separate lists to improve visibility for each list. Finally, while it may be a question of personal taste, I find the colorful themes and icons of Paperless more visually appealing than Ikiru. I also prefer check boxes in front of items on those lists that are check lists. And I prefer marking completed items with a check mark in the box rather than changing the font to strike through. So, at least for me, Paperless is the better choice.

This app should be the first item on your home screen! I use it every day and couldnt live without it.

Ive had it now for probably close to a year and its my most often used org app. I use it for grocery lists (all organized by type of food, etc) and many other lists. The developer is VERY helpful and responsive and suggested trying his new org app, Ikiru, and I did. Im sure it was due to my lack of skills but I just couldnt get it to work as great as this works for me so the developer sent me a link to get a refund and I did! Thats customer service.

My wife & I can sync up shopping lists in real time. Great icons. Wish they had sub lists or privately synced lists (hard to do gift shopping if she sees what I am doing). Pretty awesome for free.

I tried many apps looking for checklists and to-do lists. I wanted an app without alarms and reminders as I already have several that use alarms and wanted something quick and simple. This is perfect for that and looks good. As others have mentioned, folders or some way to separate lists would be nice. Edit: I noticed the new Ikiru app. Some of the concepts are superior, but I still like this one better. Especially the look. I wont likely ever switch to another app. Big thanks❤️

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.

Its really useful and easy to use. Not a lot of bells and whistles which is better IMO.

An easy way to write lists and organize what needs to get done!
