I'm a little confused about how best to use the app on iOS devices, specifically iPad. (I have an iPhone as well, but one thing at a time.) I love the way Checkvist works on my laptop, with the keyboard; but how does it work with a touchscreen? The iOS keyboard disappears unless an active data entry area is active - so I can't type enter to add a new item unless I'm already in an item.

I saw mention somewhere that iPad users could use the regular web version of the app, and that some enhancements had been added for touchscreens. I'm missing something somewhere.

    My advice is that you do not try to use the web version on a tablet or phone. It's an exercise in frustration, and you'll find yourself accidentally marking items "complete" as you attempt to swipe down the page. It's really just something to avoid, IMO.

    There is a mobile site, thankfully, which is still being developed. You need to sign in separately, at m.checkvist.com - Checkvist Mobile

    I tried that out. It's much easier to manage basic adding of list items. But I don't see how to get some of the useful views (like Due) in the mobile app. My apologies if this is retreading old ground.

    Tad Davis the mobile app doesn't yet filter by due date but I expect it's coming soon.

    In this situation (not often) on my phone I use the full/desktop site.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.  What I feel is missing is more use cases.  How are people using Checkvist?  What are some recommend workflows?  How many lists do you have? User Stories will not only help those of use already using Checkvist to be more effective, but attract more non-technical customers. I like to keep my lists at a minimum.  I only split out for sharing but I'd prefer not to. Here are my lists: * Inbox:  This is where zapier based integrations go.  I have Jira tickets and emails tagged with "!action" going to list which I process daily. * The List:  This is my primary list.  Everything is here.  I use sub-nodes for different areas. * Honey Do:  This is the list my wife and I share to make sure we know what we both want done around the house. * "Client Project" - I have a few Lists I share with clients (Free lance web developer). I"m looking to write a more detailed blog post. How are your l...

Hello friends

Hello friends, We are considering to change behaviour of move up/down command using ctrl+arrows for lists with hierarchy. The new approach is available on our beta site, https://beta.checkvist.com . Could you please try it out and tell us what you think? Thanks! https://beta.checkvist.com

Hello friends!

Hello friends! I'd like to ask for your opinion regarding multi-line text editing. This suggestion comes from one of our Russian-speaking customers Dolina Zamkova so here is a translated abstract of our email conversation. Current problem: When you write multi-line text, you must press 'Shift-Enter' first, then use 'Enter' to start a new line, then 'Ctrl-Enter' to submit the text. Wouldn't it be easier to have a setting that will allow using Enter to always write multi-line texts, and always submit on 'Ctrl-Enter', like you do it in text messengers? So we could add a new account-wide setting, on the Settings page: () Finish editing by pressing 'Ctrl-Enter' (convenient for multi-line text) What do you think? Do you write multi-line texts in Checkvist at all? Other thoughts of how we could make it better? :)
