Checkmark 2 App Reviews

Awesome!! but...

Loved the original, upgraded and I love the new version too!! But, I still need both arrival AND departure criteria to be saved within the same alert, for when I either arrive or depart a location.

Crashing!

It wont open! Please fix! Cant get my locker combo inside the app!

Works Great!

This is a very useful app. Having location-based reminders makes my life better.

Almost there.

I switched over from Due. I would love if the lists could be attached to a location. It would be great to have the grocery list pop up when I get to the grocery store.

Mostly good

Good app. However, notifications recently stopped working making the app useless. Tried rebooting phone and reinstalling app. No luck, plus I ended up with multiple duplicates of tasks after the iCloud sync. Perhaps this is the fault of iOS 8, but I expect that a $9.99 app will be up to date with the latest iOS.

Great when it works

Great features. Does a good job nagging me to perform tasks, as designed. However, it now opens to a black screen and a reminder that wont go away, no matter how many times I checkmark it. Developer hasnt responded to 2 requests in over 2 weeks. Worthless to me. Ill probably try Due instead.

Nonexistent Support

Well I am happy for those that can actually get this application to work but that is not my case. To be fair it worked the first time I installed it but after removing it for a period then reinstalling it now I get crashes on startup. I emailed support on 07 October 2014 and have yet to hear back from them. So if you buy this application just hope that it works for you out of the box because if it does not you will receive no help from the developer.

It doesn’t work

I deleted this app because it doesn’t work.

Lost all my data

Used it for about 3 months. I had myself totally organized within about 20 different lists. Suddenly one day the app would only open and then instantly close. Ive attempted everything I can to retrieve my data. Its gone. Incredibly irritating. Also when I first started using it, the app would drain my battery dramatically. After shutting off the location aware feature in the app, the battery issue was resolved.

Still the best.

I wrote a poor review last year when the app failed after an update but it eventually righted itself. Its still the best to do app on the market. Delayed arrival/departure reminders is genius! When will we see an iPhones 6 update? Better yet when do we see checkmark 3?!

Works, but crucial limitations

It is good for quick entry, but a couple of things are missing when compared to similar reminder apps: - iOS reminders integration - unified list It is especially frustrating that I cant see (nor move) tasks between my "lists" group and the "where" or "when" groups. That is, I cant add a time or location to any tasks categorized into project lists! Many other apps do this and more (Gneo, priorities, Gotasks)

Nice App

Really like the look of this app and it has great features overall. Would love to be able to add time based reminders under list items and would be a 5 star app for me.

Help! Its crashing

And my Christmas list is on there!!!

Buggy and inconsistent

Entries disappear from notification center and the app badge keeps changing. Very inconsistent and unreliable with iOS integration. But once you are inside the app, the organization and user interface are great. Needs work.

Notifications had some issues, all good now.

I had the original Checkmark app for my iPhone 5 and location based reminders always worked great. Unless I am doing something completely wrong here, I cannot get Checkmark2 to remind me about a checklist as I move into a pre-defined location. Hope to see this issue addressed soon. ***UPDATE 12/14/14*** As a last ditch effort I erased all the Checkmark 2 data from my iCloud account, deleted the app and then re-installed it. Somehow this seems to have fixed whatever kept the app from sending me notifications. Ill raise my rating from 2 stars to 5!

2 problems right off the bat

In the original Checkmark I can: 1. Set the "where" alarm radius for as small as 25 meters 2. Relocate the pin when creating a location. I cant do either of those in Checkmark 2. They were important features to me, and I feel as if Ive paid $3 to lose functionality for the sake of a prettier app.

Great but ruins audio...

This app is exactly what I needed. But it has a glitch that when you are listening to music and a reminder comes on, it lowers the audio of iTunes, but it doesnt raise it back up again! Without noticing you will turn up your headphones again, then when you get a call it will be super loud because you adjusted your audio level. Its so close to being an amazing app, but has this fatal flaw....

Needs recurring location based reminders

This app is everything I need in location and time based reminders. The only thing its lacking is no recurring location based reminders. Yes of course you can ignore the reminder but when I arrive and leave a certain location multiple times a day it can get annoying. Until a recurring location based reminder is implemented this app will continue to be 4 out of 5 stars in my opinion.

Good App But Tough to Leave Reminders

This is a great app that gets better. Where it doesnt have reminders flexibility it does make up for it with power. It would be nice to reorder locations. Thats my one (current) gripe. All others were fixed in ios8!

Not recommended

This app is very pretty. Thats really why I bought it, since Reminders is sufficient for my needs, but ugly. Well, it turns out I swapped looks for function, and it was definitely not worth the $. First, a lot of people love the location based reminders, but I cannot use them at all. All of my "wheres" keep occasionally activating when Im just sitting at home. Maybe just a bug which will get fixed? Maybe. Next, and most important to me, Checkmark 2 cannot do two simple things that reminders can: you cant check off a recurring task until after it is due (no getting your tasks done early!), and you cannot add a task without entering an exact time. Sometimes I want to see a task on my "When" list but dont yet know the exact time I want to schedule it for, so thats a bummer. I regret the purchase so far. Reminders is better. I hope to see improvements because I do like the way this app looks. Update: I am now able to check off tasks which I complete early. Hooray! Maybe further improvements are on the way too?
