Daily Checklist: CheckYourList

I use a lot of check lists and have gone through a lot of check list apps. I’ve settled on Things for personal life, TickTick for work, and Reminders for groceries. But I was still missing something - no app filled the niche of the perfect “routine” checklist. I have sort of complex morning and evening routines, and I needed something to run them from the apple watch for various reasons. To do this, it needed to be 1) responsive and sync quickly 2) have a good complication with a progress bar of some sort 3) automatically sort done items to bottom 4) be easy to check/uncheck from the watch 5) reset nightly 6) allow you to set a specific list for a given watch face and, importantly, 7) allow you to determine the order that the list items appear on the watch (not alphabetical!). I maybe went through 30 apps before I found Check Your List, and it excels in all criteria. I have a shortcut automatically transition my watch to the “morning routine” face at 4 am, the “evening routine” face at 8:45 pm, and another shortcut to reset each list at 3 am. Finally, I have the perfect routine app for watch integration. If you need a to do app loaded with features then this may not be for you. But if you need something lean and simple, especially for “routines”, this is the one. The chosen one.

I’ve had a great experience with Daily Checklist! Personally, I use it as a weekly checklist and a daily checklist. At the beginning of the week, I create a short list for each day, and it lets me easily track my progress throughout the week with cool progress bars. It also makes it easy to go back and catch up on tasks I’ve missed. I actually love this little thing.

Wanted an app to help remind myself if I have everything turned off for when I leave work. It’s perfect and simple. All I got to do is go into the app and walk around the store checking things off if they are turned off. The only thing I wish this app had is the option to turn on notifications to remind yourself to go through your check list. Other than that I think this app is perfect!
