Create your first list

Three ways to start, and none of them is wrong:

• Ask Nelly. Describe the list you want in plain words and Nelly builds it — see Create a list with Nelly.
• Pick a starter list. Ready-made lists to make the first minute easy.
• Start empty. A name and an icon, then add items yourself.

Items or tasks?

Every list has a kind. Items are things — groceries, films, places — and tasks are to-dos that can carry due dates and reminders. Pick whichever reads naturally; you can also rename what items are called per list ("Exercises", "Ingredients", "Films") so the app speaks your language.

Make it yours

• Icon and color — around 70 icons and a full accent palette, so lists are recognizable at a glance.
• Pin the lists you live in — they float to the top.
• Labels let you file lists into categories ("Home", "Work") and filter by them.
• Archive a list you're done with but don't want to delete — it leaves the main view, keeps everything, and comes back whenever you want.

Don't fear the delete

Deleting a list (or items) always offers Undo for a few seconds — and nothing leaves your account until that window has passed. Tap Undo and it's as if nothing happened, on every device.
