Real Simple Checklists App Reviews

I found this absolutely useless.

I am going to spend the $ to unlock all the lists. Its a bit pricey but I really liked what I saw on the free lists. I have made check lists for myself for travel but this app goes much further. Real Simple magazine is great and I am sure I will come to rely on these check lists.

The color of the typeface is so faint in the checklist its hard to read. There is no way to change the font or the color of the type. If there was an option for us to select the font color or even just to make it darker I would give this five stars.

Excellent app for keeping organized and clean. Hope for more checklists updates from real simple!!!

I love this app!! It has so much more than checklists. Free recipes and the magazine too. Very helpful when you are packing for trips.

Solid app that is well worth the $2.99!!! Organizing checklists for everything you ever wanted/needed...tons of tips and you can also create your own lists as well as set reminders!!! OBSESSED!!! :)

I use it for my grocery list its great.

Lets face it we all need a little help remembering everything that needs happen at home when we are busy with work, kids, and life in general.

I love having the lists to help tackle tough tasks. My only complaints are: 1. Some of the list items dont make sense (ex: the kitchen cleaning list mentions wiping the surface...of what? Then theres another item about countertops...so what was the previous line referring to? Im missing something here). 2. Put the items in order! Shouldnt one dust all of the surfaces in a room before mopping or vacuuming the floor? Still worth downloading and avoiding having handwritten lists of my own.

This is not an easy app to use and it is difficult to edit. Not too happy!

With this new updated, the app is broken and my lists are GONE!! In fact, no lists show. You push out an update to your app THREE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS that breaks the app when it is very likely that people are using it to plan Christmas events?!!! What were you thinking? We had several lists on this app that are now useless and we have to start over with another tool.

I had to delete the app and re-download it. The most recent update erased all of the templates. There was no instruction to delete the app and re-download it. Kind of funny for a helpful app.

As a fan of Real Simple Magazine, I had high hopes for this app. I was not expecting to download it and then subsequently delete it. The fact you get just a couple of checklist options per category and then must pay to unlock the rest of the checklists just seems like a gimmick to me. I dont need hundreds of checklists but a few for various topics that I could customize ... So will stick to another list making app or my own reminders or note app instead. Those are at least free!

I am already a subscriber to the magazine; why do I need to PAY for the checklists? Really? You have some great lists that I could really use, but to only get one or two doesnt help me much. Oh, well....

Seriously! The update caused this? Do I have to purchase the additional lists again?? If so, I will try another app.

Yes, the last update cleared the lists. If you uninstall and reinstall you get them back. If you bought the extra ones, like I did, you dont have to pay for them again. If you go to buy, it recognizes your purchase from the last update and you are not charged. That being said, I love the app! You can now edit the lists which is wonderful. I love being able to delegate tasks and share lists as well. Useful app!

I put A LOT of time into creating a custom checklist. Now its gone. Dont know if an update killed it or what but this app is USELESS.

I read about this app in Good Housekeeping. I was looking forward to using it to organize myself for a couple of big events. There are only a couple of generic lists that can be opened for free. The rest require in app purchase. Based on the lists that are available, I dont plan on wasting money to open others.

I purchased the full version and it worked until recently. Now, it crashes and will not open at all!!

I bought the expanded list pack. Then, all of the lists disappeared, and the app crashed repeatedly when I tried to create a new list. I reinstalled the app, but all of the extra lists I paid to unlock were gone! Plus, the lists I created myself were gone. You can not trust this app to store important information.
