Description

Get the app that Macworld says "deserves a spot on your iPhone"!

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 you'd 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 app's 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 you're 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.


POWERFUL FEATURES

- send lists via email, others can import your list into their copy of Paperless
- send a plain text version of a list via iMessage, or copy it into another app
- easily duplicate lists
- manually reorder lists and list items
- sort list items alphabetically
- copy and move items from one list to another
- comprehensive search
- passcode lock


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 iPhone's 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

"I've been trying many To Do apps since iPhone 1.0 -- from the expensive Things to Toodledo and others -- and I don't use any of them regularly. Most just require too much effort. Paperless is the first one I've found that hits that sweet spot between being simple enough you'll 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 I've 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 I've 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"

Years later still using daily

I have used this every single day multiple times a day for many years. It’s so handy! It has just enough features to make it very functional yet not so many that you spend time navigating the app, or being confused about how to implement certain features.

I like the little icons for each list. It’s easy to view the summary of all lists in the home screen and the icons make it quick to recognise the one you want.

My only wish is that there would be a feature to keep you at a specific point in your list when you return to it. I have a verrry long list of things I keep track of during each year (which I don’t want in separate lists) so each time I access it I have to do a longer and longer scroll as the year goes on.

Great in Coronavirus

I’ve used Paperless for years. For instance I have houses in the UK and abroad and have permanent check lists I use when traveling from one to the other.
However in the current Coronavirus situation it is proving priceless. I’ve always had one massive shopping list that contains about every item I would ever buy from a supermarket. As I’m currently isolated and housebound my neighbour does my shopping.
From this ticked list I untick all the items I need and email to him the unchecked part of the list. As I’d already introduced him to Paperless a year or so back, he pastes the unchecked list into his version and there we have it, my shopping list in his phone he uses to buy my items.
I’ve always loved this app, but now I can say it’s genuinely proving to be a lifesaver, keeping me safe from this virus.

My joint best iPad app!

I had previously tried various check-list and “to do” type apps.
This is the only one so far that works well for me and I find myself using it more and more (together with Evernote which is my other go-to app)

It’s important to discover its many features in order to get the best out of it.

Tips:

1. Take the time when starting a new list to configure the various options, such as selecting the checklist option, which moves ticked items to a separate but visible list beneath the unticked items. This incredibly useful function is off by default.
You can easily untick all the ticked items “en-mass” to reuse a list.

2. Choose an icon for each list from the huge list.

3. Learn how to re-order items in a list - edit function then drag the three horizontal lines up or down.

Wish list item - I’d like to be able to import a photo into a list item.

Summary - a fantastically useful app. Thank you Paperless!
