NeatList

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about NeatList.

How does smart parsing work?

Type in one line — for example "3x HDMI cables", "500g flour", or "milk 2l". NeatList splits quantity, unit, and item name based on your list type. Grocery lists understand metric units; standard lists use patterns like "3x"; to-do lists can include due dates.

Can I share individual lists?

NeatList shares through Workspaces, not per-list links. Invite people to a shared workspace (for example "Family") and they see every list inside it. You also keep a private workspace for personal lists.

What list types are supported?

Three types: Standard (simple checklists), Grocery (quantity and unit columns), and To-do (due dates). Each list picks the parser and layout that fits the job.

Does NeatList work offline?

Yes on iOS and Android. The native app stores lists locally in SQLite and syncs when you are back online. The web app at app.neatlist.app needs an internet connection because it talks to Supabase directly.

Is there a mobile app?

Yes. Use NeatList in your browser at app.neatlist.app, or install the native iOS and Android apps. The same account stays in sync across devices in a workspace.

How is NeatList different from Google Keep, AnyList, or Todoist?

NeatList is built for households and small groups: one-line entry with parsing, structured grocery rows, and workspace-based sharing — not a generic notes app or a heavy project manager. There are no per-item forms for everyday lists.

Is NeatList free?

NeatList is free while in beta. Core list-making and sharing in a workspace will stay free.

How do I clear completed items?

Completed items move to a separate section at the bottom of the list. Tap Clear to remove them all at once (with confirmation on web).

Can I recover a deleted list?

Deleted lists cannot be recovered. NeatList asks for confirmation before deleting a list to prevent accidents.
