Check it Off app review: the simplest way to manage your to-dos

Reviews

Introduction

If you have a few things that you need to get done, but just can't get organized, then Check It Off is one app that you could consider downloading onto your iPhone or iPad to help you manage it all.

The developers have employed the “Keep It Simple, Stupid” strategy, also known colloquially as the KISS principle, and indeed have come up with a design that runs in a fast, efficient, and highly intuitive way.

You can purchase Check It Off by going over to the Productivity section of the App store, where you will find it available for just 99 cents. There are no ads splashed across the interface, which makes it perfectly reasonable for the developers to charge a nominal fee for their product.

Let's take a closer look at the features of this app.

Getting Started & Task Input

As far as space occupancy goes, Check It Off is the smallest app that can possibly exist, taking up just a tenth of a megabyte of space on your iOS device. You'll find that it downloads and launches in just moments, and this swift and smooth functioning continues even when you are inside the app.

Entering tasks into the app is very simple which can be done by tapping the “New” button on the top right of the app screen. The fields to be entered are the name of the task, a short description, the due date, and the name of the List under which you'd like to categorize this task. Lists can be customized, or you can use the usual Personal, Work/School Assignments, and other pre-existing templates to help you get organized.

Organize & Review

This app endeavors to help its users go about their day and knock off all the nagging tasks that they've been putting off. This is done using a really innovative tool that keeps count of the “age” of your tasks as you input them, ensuring that you get the most important priorities checked off before you proceed to the less urgent to-dos.

The main screen of the app is a list of all the tasks you've entered, along with the list name, task name, and description. The due date for each task will appear on the left of each entry along with a prominent box that contains the countdown to the days left until the due date of the task. If you have passed the due date, the number will go into the negative.

The system also allows users to effortlessly drag and drop items into their desired order of priority, which means that if and when more urgent matters arise, as they do in life, users are able to quickly reorder the tasks in the order that works best for them.

Final Words

Check It Off is the kind of app that really makes me feel excited and reinvigorated by the prospect of technology and how it can help increase our productivity rather than hinder it. I can assure you that if you have this on your iPhone or iPad and start using it, you'll suddenly find yourself feeling far more organized, efficient, and with plenty of time to spend with your loved ones rather than agonizing and stressing over your to-do list. I would highly recommend this app to everyone!
