Suru : To Do List & Notes

I obtained a lifetime subscription to this app. Then I had to delete it. When I went back in after resetting the password they wanted me to purchase again. No way deleting it as I am not going to get the subscription more than once. Update -07/14/24 App developers got with me and said they planned to fix problem. This was shortly after first revie. They promised to fix problem. They never did.

I absolutely LOVE this app. But an issue I’ve been having is that when you get into the “be thorough section”, the app doesn’t allow you to scroll freely through whatever you write in there. It also doesn’t let you easily go back and edit what you've written. This is the ONLY issue with this app. Otherwise, it’s FLAWLESS and everything I’ve been looking for to organize my business.

I have always loved this app and have been using it for years, but today I have been locked out from all my lists unless I add an email and password to my “account”. I don’t want yet another app with an access prompt! Especially one that I have been comfortable with for years. Please fix!

Writing this review as someone who has loved Suru for years and who still continues to believe in the app. This really is a fantastic list-making app. I have subscribed in the past and just bought the lifetime pro membership (Black Friday deal, $20). There are two things I really miss about this app that were changed in recent updates: (1) the full-length colored bars, and (2) the ability to choose rounded or squared edges. In the new updates, each item on the list just has a tiny colored tab, and we cannot choose rounded or squared edges. I have no idea why Suru would get rid of two of its signature features — but as a Lifetime Pro Suru Member, I’m really really really hoping that these will come back one day. People love Suru for how beautiful its interface is and how easily customizable it is. Not sure why they’d ruin something that was so perfect :”( Nonetheless, still love Suru. Just want the beautiful full-length colored bars back! And the option to choose rounded or square.

This app looked like it had pretty much everything I was looking for--until I downloaded it and discovered it was portrait orientation only. That is simply unworkable for an app I would be using repeatedly throughout the day. I work on a 12.9" iPad Pro with a keyboardcase. That setup only works well in landscape for several reasons. Portrait is simply an unwieldy nuisance. If landscape is offered in a future update, I will reconsider this app, because otherwise it looks closer to what I wanted than anything else I've tried.

My favorite part of the app was the colored bars. In fact, I actually paid for pro subscription just so I could get the other color schemes. Now all you get is a little sliver of color?? Why would you do that? There’s also no option to change the shape anymore. You took out the choice of Square corners or rounded…. And you could also choose to have full colored bar or just the outline…… It was really cool, and really the only reason I used it. Because, other than that…it’s pretty light on features…. So I’m good with this, will be deleting and canceling subscription….

My whole life's schedule revolves around my Suru lists. My favorite list app. Simple. Sleek. Love it!

Takes 3-4 seconds to launch which is way too long when trying to quickly add an entry. Tried rebooting my phone to speed things up but the app actually froze after and took multiple attempts to launch again. The launch speed is unfortunately a deal breaker even tho I really love the interface. Used on iPhone 13 pro max ios 16.0.2

This app is great - simple, yet with enough functionality to be useful. I have tried numerous other apps and they were all blah. You can make numerous lists, and put numerous tasks within each list, and subtasks under each task. Totally easy to move an item from one list to another, also. 100% recommend

clean ui functional without in app purchase decent functionality -no date/time or reminder functionality -cross platform sync only w/ subscription -only 1 layer of depth for nested items (though you can circumvent this by adding detail to an item) -designed as a mobile app, slightly clunky on OSX
