Ikiru

The best list app ever made!

All-Time Great App, Your Phone Is Broken Without It
… A must have for anyone looking for great iOS software.

9 Stars…
As a list nut, I love this app. The UI is outstanding! It's THE ONLY list app you need.

This app is an organized person's dream come true! All I want to do is make lists!! … Highly recommend.

List inception … Ikiru can have more than two levels of nesting lists, which I appreciate, and is very simple to use …

A productivity app that's actually productive.

Awesome!
I love this app. Easy. Flexible. Simple. Everything I was looking for.

Best To Do App
I must have tried every ToDo app in my time, but they all lacked at least one feature that I wanted. Not any more! This one does the lot!!

Simple and pure!
Easy to use! Fast iCloud-Sync! Universal-App! Brings fun to write on iPad AND iPhone! … Love it!

Just fantastic
A modern Paperless. Thank you! Solid and polished in every way.

Even better than Paperless
Paperless was great and I ran my life by it but this is even better! Terrific program. I love it!

Ikiru is multilingual.

Includes support for the following languages: Chinese (simplified), English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazilian) and Spanish

Ikiru has purpose.

The word “ikiru” (ee-kee-roo) means “to live” in Japanese. It’s also the title of an Akira Kurosawa film about a man who decides to do something meaningful with his life.

Ikiru (the app) is my attempt at doing something meaningful with my life, and hopefully help others live meaningful and productive lives.

Ikiru has history.

In 2010 I released a list-making app called “Paperless“. From busy moms and dads to airplane pilots to people who needed a little help remembering things after suffering a brain injury, Paperless has been used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.

Ikiru is built upon that legacy – incorporating the best ideas from Paperless, greatly improving upon them, and adding big features that people have requested.

You can read more about why I built Ikiru in “Building a Better List App“.
