How to use Listable
Listable is a platform for creating and editing ToDo lists that can be easily shared among multiple users, both on the Web and iPhone devices. This page describes how the process of sharing works and will hopefully get you up and running on Listable in just a few minutes.
How does reordering and editing in the web interface work?
The web interface offers many ways to conveniently create and update your list. Editing items and the list title is accomplished by simply clicking on the text you want to change. Reordering your list can be accomplished by dragging an item to the desired location. You can also reorder your list of lists in the left by clicking and dragging the list name.
How does sharing lists work?
Listable facilitates sharing of ToDo lists with any number of users. You can share lists by either using the web interface or by using your contacts list on the iPhone. The user with whom you share a list will receive an email letting him or her know that a list is available. If the other user already has an account, all they need to do is log in and they'll see the list immediately. If they don't have an account, they'll have to create one using the email that you shared your list with before they can start collaborating.
What is the Activity Feed?
Listable offers a unique Activity Feed which shows you what others have done on shared lists. Use it to see at a glance what has happened on your shared lists.
What are push notifications?
Push notifications are only available for users of our inexpensive iPhone application. They look just like text messages, but they don't go against your text message plan. In fact, they're free and unlimited.
How do I get push notifications from Listable?
Listable sends you push notifications when someone modifies a list you've shared with them. In order to start receiving push notifications, you need to have logged in to the Listable app on your iPhone at least once. Push notifications from Listable will appear whether or not the Listable app is open.
Can I turn off push notifications from some lists and not others?
Yes! If you're on a particularly active list and don't want to see a notification every time a change is made, you can turn off notifications for that list. Log in to the Listable web interface, click on the list you want to modify, and click on "Unwatch". The list will immediately stop sending you push notifications, and new activity won't clutter your Activity Feed. You will still be able to make changes to the list.
You can also turn off push notifications globally for Listable in your iPhone, or only use the icon badge count. This is configured in the iPhone settings for Listable.
