Organizing Items with Categories

Categories in checklists work like steps or sections that group related items together. Each category can contain multiple checklist items, helping organize complex checklists into logical stages (Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, etc.).

Category Selection

The Category dropdown lets you assign items to existing categories or create new ones. Select from previously created categories, or type a new category name to create it on the fly. If you leave the category empty, the item is automatically assigned to the default category.

Multiple Items Per Category

Add as many items as needed to each category. For example, Step 1 might have 5 items, Step 2 might have 3 items, and so on. This structure makes checklists easier to navigate and understand during execution.

Flexible Organization

You have complete control over how many categories to create and how many items belong to each. Organize your checklist in a way that matches your workflow and makes sense for your team.
