An okay free checklist program,

For my 125th Kindle App, My Checklist is a no-frills program for making notes. Putting in a title for the list is mandatory, then you may add items to the list. There is no opportunity to change the giant font. It’s free, but you may already have a better program. If not, this is a good checklist app. Many programs could be considered better, so I may as well make the list of programs on the Kindle good for lists:
Dedicated checklist programs I like:
Task List Professional — a full featured checklist program
Dedicated Spreadsheet programs I like:
EFRAC Spreadsheet (Efrac)
Anywhere Spreadsheet (Nickel Buddy)
Dedicated calendar programs I like:
Calendar Pro (Jujuba)
Calendar (Compulab)
Calendar (7 Dragons)
Day Planner & Calendar (Magellan)
Dedicated note programs I like:
Notepad (7 Dragons)
Notepad Plus (SwashApps)
Sticky Notes (Mobigloo)
TakeNote (IzzyLabs)
kindNotes (Guy Moss)
My Checklist is a decent program, but the giant unchangeable font doesn’t let it compete well with the programs above. If you have one of these, you’ll likely not be using this new program much. Still, it’s free, so it won’t hurt to try it out.
Good enough to recommend.

|Try this one first if you are looking for a list, to-do or notepad app – Free,
As a recent Kindle Keyboard buyer I have started searching for a good notepad program. Notepad and Notepad Plus look promising but My Checklist is a new free in-house app from Amazon.
The title “My Checklist” turns out to understate the functionality:
1. Number of lists: 25
2. Number of items per list: 50
3. Length of each item: 8 lines (about the length of 2 full size Tweets)
4. Edit existing list: title, item text, add/delete items
5. Duplicate existing list
6. Hide/unhide checked items
7. Menu of existing lists, sorted by most recently used.
In addition to simple things like grocery lists, My Checklist can also thus be used as a mini-address book, a To-Do list or a small inventory log. If you are reasonably concise, it could even serve as a personal journal. As a note taker, the list menu becomes a nice way to organize your collection.
My Checklist is not a tool for keeping class notes or any “long form” material. But then, at least for me, I will probably never learn to love the Kindle keyboard that much anyway. It is better than a Blackberry at least.
My first wish, early on, would probably be to have 2 or more font size selections. On the Kindle 3 only about 15 lines of text show per page. As is, it is probably OK for one-line grocery lists, etc., but needlessly large from the readability standpoint or for longer notes. There does not appear to be any way to sort lists or to do a text search. In addition there is no export feature, so your notes are locked up inside the app.
Again, I have the Kindle Keyboard, so I cannot judge how this might work with the Touch. The buttons and menu selections do look touch friendly.
For short note taking it looks like My Checklist answers my needs. TBD. More features might be nice, but aside from a few tweaks, like the font sizes, simplicity is one of the advantages.

|Intuitive and simple,
This is a very good basic checklist program for creating to-do lists, shopping lists, reading lists, and the like. It’s very intuitive, and I didn’t look at the “help” function with the instructions until after I had made my first list & then opened it and checked something off.
While a few more features might be nice — for example, nested lists, or linked lists, or the ability to tag and sort lists — this one does the job and is extremely easy to use. I have a Kindle Keyboard, so inputting the lists and checking off items was really easy. I haven’t tried it on the basic Kindle, but I imagine it would be much more cumbersome to try to do it with the virtual keyboard.
Works smoothly, is intuitive to use, opens quickly. Can’t ask for more at the current free price. I don’t know how much I’ll use it, but if I need a quick checklist program on my Kindle, this one will do the job.
