Major flaws

The app duplicates every single entry almost all of the time. So you have a list of say 10 things, and suddenly you open the app and you have a list of 20 things. Then you have to check off the completed things twice (and at times 3 and 4 and 5 times because it doesnt stop at just one duplication-it duplicates the duplicates, if that makes sense)

This renders the app useless. I think it has something to do with syncing through multiple devices but with todays technology, this should NOT be happening. Every other app that includes a checklist (such as a note taking app, bill paying app, etc) can manage not to duplicate entries. I literally loathe opening this app and adding something to a list because I know in the next day or so the app will have made several duplicate entries. Checking off one entry doesnt check off the duplicates, so you have in essence a never-ending list that grows instead of shrinks.

Others have raised this known issue and the app still hasnt found a remedy. I am now shopping for other list apps to use because this basic yet crippling flaw renders the app entirely useless. I am so disappointed in what otherwise could have been an okay app.

Other flaws include the fact that if you sort a list with new entries at the top, it "forgets" this setting so the next time you open the list, new entries go to the bottom. So, to "fix" this, you have to change the settings every time you open the app but before adding to the list. Also pretty ridiculous.
