Unless I'm missing something with Joplin, simple lists don't seem possible. I just want somewhere I can put my grocery list with check marks that get crossed out as I go.

Any suggestions for a simple note/list app on Android? Don't need cloud sync. Just ability to take notes/lists and maybe color/organize them.

You can make lists in joplin by using [] for check boxes. But yeah, it doesn't have a built in list editor yet.

EDIT: nvm, it totally does have a button that makes checkbox lists.

When I click on "New to-do" it only lets me create one. I have to back to the main menu to create another. Not super convenient

You can create a new to do list within a note. It's the checklist button in the editor.

You can't really track these tasks as individual items with their own due date, so idk. I don't really use to-do's that extensively, so these two features work for me.

Ah ok thanks that's a little bit better. I'll play around with that.

Joplin is nice. I used it for years before switching to Obsidian. Still like it because of RTF support, but Nextcloud sync is so slow with it compared to Obsidian.
