Overview
Make an online to-do list in your notes with a checklist you can update as work gets done. Add task entries, mark them complete, and see your progress at a glance with an optional progress bar.
Use it for anything you want to track with checked and unchecked items, from errands to a project launch. You can also choose to move completed tasks below open ones, delete them when checked, or celebrate when the whole list is complete.
When to use it
Keep a grocery or errands list and check off items as you pick them up.
Track the steps for a project launch, from preparing materials to publishing.
Make a packing checklist for a trip and mark each item as it goes in your bag.
Follow a weekly routine, such as reviewing priorities or preparing a team update.
Features and settings
Setting
Show progress bar
Displays a visual progress bar and completion percentage above the tasks. Turn it on when you want a quick view of how much of the list is done.
Setting
Move checked tasks down
Moves completed rows below open tasks instead of leaving them in place. Turn it on to keep unfinished items at the top.
Setting
Delete when checked
Checking a task removes that row. Choose a short delay if you want a moment to undo a misclick, or delete instantly when you prefer checked tasks to disappear right away.
Setting
Confetti celebration
Triggers a celebratory burst when all tasks are checked. Turn it on if you want a little celebration when the list is complete.

Tips · Limitations
Tips
Use one entry per task so each item can be checked off separately.
Turn on Show progress bar when you want to see the completion percentage.
Turn on Move checked tasks down to keep open tasks together at the top.
If you enable Delete when checked, choose a short delay if you want time to undo misclicks.
Limitations
The documented task details are an entry's text and whether it is checked; due dates and assignees are not part of this checklist format.
With Delete when checked enabled, checking a task removes its row, either instantly or after a short delay.
