Simple Travel Checklist — What's New

v3.0.7 — September 2, 2026

More Reliable Backup

Google Drive Backup

Sign-in has been rebuilt on Android’s current standard, making it more reliable. When something does go wrong, backup now shows a clear one-line message with a Tap here for help link instead of raw technical output — and Restore is always available while you are signed in.

Reminders

  • The app now asks for notification permission before you pick a date and time — and if notifications are off, it explains how to turn them back on instead of failing silently
  • Reminders can no longer be set in the past

Settings

A new About section shows the app version with quick links to the privacy policy and terms of use. Help & Support now sits at the bottom of the screen, just above it.

Languages

Fixed Thai text on the main screen, and Norwegian now displays correctly on Norwegian phones. Requires Android 7.0 or newer.

v3.0.6 — August 25, 2026

Choose What Is in Your Menu

Action Menu

Five switches in Settings decide which actions appear in the list menu: Expand All, Collapse All, Sort A-Z, Sort Z-A and Delete Checked Items. Switch them all off and the menu button goes with them, rather than opening an empty menu.

Smaller Things

  • Category headers now show a caret, so it is clear they collapse
  • Back from Edit mode returns to your list instead of closing the app
  • Tapping + with an empty box focuses the field and opens the keyboard
  • The mode chips sit centred on the action bar

Bug Fixes

Google Drive sign-in now tells you when it has failed, instead of appearing to do nothing at all. Fixed a crash when dragging a category in Category Management.
