iPhone and iPad Instructions:

Using the app is straight forward. Press the + buttons to add lists or list items. Use the wrench icon to call up a tool menu that will allow you to modify list items. From left to right the buttons perform the following actions:

Organize: Move or Copy list items between existing lists. Pressing this button will put the list items of the current list into selection mode. Selecting a list item when in this mode will mark it with a checkmark on the right hand side. To deselect the list item, select it again to remove the checkmark. When you are ready to move or copy the items click the button labeled Done at the top right of the screen.

Unmark All Items: This button clears all checked items from the list. Any item with a checkmark on the left side and a line through it will be reset.

Alarms: Selecting this button will provide you with options to set both a time based alarm and a location based alarm.

Re-Order: Pressing this button will put the list items into re-order mode. Tap and hold the icon with many lines beside a list item to initiate drag and drop. Keep holding down on this icon while dragging your finger up and down to change the order of the selected list item. When done re-ordering items, press the wrench tool icon to call up the tool menu. Now press the Re-order button again.

There are three buttons at the bottom of the list menu which allow you to export, sync, and import items into the app.

Export: Press the button to initiate an export of an existing list. This will put the list menu into selection mode. The background color will change to indicate that you are in selection mode.

The watch app has been completely re-designed since version 2.1. To initiate a sync of all watch data to the phone long press the list menu screen and press on the sync menu button. If a watch is paired with a phone data is sent between the two to keep the two devices in sync automatically. You would use the manual sync if changes where made while the watch was either not paired with the phone or the phone was out of range.

You use the crown to select the list you want to view. Swipe left on a list name to displat a context menu that will allow you to re-name the list, add a new list, or delete the list.

The list items screen is similar to the list menu screen. You use the crown to select a list item and the swipe left to display editing options fro that item. You can add new items to the list, mark an item as completed, or delete the list item.

To view and edit a list item click on the view button after selecting a list item with the crown. A new screen shows the list item's details. Scrolling to the bottom of the screen will present an edit button which will put the current screen into editing mode. Tap the back button on the top left of the watch marked by the < symbol to exit editing mode.
