Check Check - Checklists 4+

Great for Travel

Love this app. I’ve been using it for several years. It is reliable and helps me to remember to pack all the essentials for overnight to international travel. I wish there was a search function. I have several lists; travel reminders, travel suitcase, travel carry-on, etc. This helps me to organize and pack efficiently. Occasionally, I place an item in the wrong list or have duplicates. A search function would aid in maintaining the lists.

Used to love this app...

...now it’s just okay. It still works fine (since the recent major makeover), but I’m not a fan of the new look. 1) There is so much wasted space with the new layout! I could view 11 items in a list without scrolling on the old version, but it looks like I can see about half that many now before having to scroll. 2) The number of completed items on a list was fine being listed underneath the list title at the top and having “hide/show completed” readily accessible at the bottom center in the old version. I don’t really care how many items are completed so having that info take up space at the bottom and forcing extra steps to get to the “hide completed “ option is a step backwards for me, as far as app simplicity and quick usability goes. 3) Why change “Reset” to the cog symbol and add steps to reset the list? That’s another step backwards. 4) And why change out the seemingly Apple-universal symbol for sharing to some new weird symbol? Seems pointless to me.

At this point I’m not sure if I’ll continue to use this app. I’ll definitely be looking for a replacement.

Developer Response ,

Hello BandMom67,
I'm so sorry that the recent update has disappointed you. All the points you bring up are valid and similar to other feedback I've received privately. Your feedback has been noted and I'm working to resolve all these usability issues ASAP. You can expect updates in the coming weeks that will bring back the simplicity and usability you loved in the old version. May I ask you to hang on for a little bit longer while these issues are fixed?

Probably will delete & never use again

Like all apps, they’re always after your money & long term users or not protected either. I’ve recently gotten my phone stolen & credit ravaged so I’m not joyful. I bought this app in Jan 2019 for $0.99 & still have it on my iPad with unlimited use. My replacement iPhone now has this app which I recently had to download again & now refuses to restore, instead check check wants me to spend $4.99 & not sure why. I will not buy twice, I’ve encountered this is the new way of life. Apps you like will all be memberships for monthly, yearly, etc. if you wish to keep using them & the ones that don’t follow method this will soon be obsolete & you’ll be forced to change anyway. Overall app was not bad but the fact of this matter is, I refuse to pay twice.
