The checklist

Everything still to do, and who is doing it.

The checklist covers everything that is not food and not money: borrow chairs, book the hall, buy ice, put the bins out. Most occasions start with a list of common tasks already filled in, which you can edit, delete or add to.

Order and progress

Unfinished tasks stay at the top and completed ones drop below with a line through them. The bar at the top shows how many are done.

Tip — Generate writes a starter set of tasks based on the occasion, the time of day and how many people are coming. Everything it adds can be edited or deleted like any other item.
