About the app

HyoMemo lets you create as many simple three-column checklists as you like, laid out like a spreadsheet, on iPhone and iPad.

Press Return in an item cell to confirm it and move to the next row, just like a spreadsheet. To add a line break inside a cell, tap Line Break above the keyboard (shown when the table setting Wrap Text in Cells is on). You can also swipe the row left → Edit.

When you copy several lines from Notes, Excel, or another app and paste them into an empty row, tap Split into Rows to make each line its own item. You can also tap ⋯ → Add Rows from Clipboard to add them all to the end of the table. Bullets and numbers such as "•", "-", or "1." are removed, and lines marked "[x]" or "✓" come in checked. If you copy two or more columns from a spreadsheet, the rightmost column becomes the item and the column to its left becomes the category.

To change the order of tables on the home list, touch and hold a table and drag it up or down. Release without moving to see the menu: rename, change icon and color, duplicate, save as template, or delete. Choose from 40 icons and 7 colors for each table (touch and hold → Change Icon & Color).

For each table, you can choose how checked rows look (checkmark only, or strikethrough and gray), move checked rows to the bottom or hide them, wrap text in cells, and set the category column width. Each row can have a note that doesn't show in the table; swipe the row left → Edit to open it. For lists you reuse, such as groceries or packing, swipe the table right in the list → Reset, or tap the check column header → Uncheck All.

Progress on Home: Choose how each table shows its progress on the home list in ⋯ → Settings → Progress on Home (Squares, Bar and Percentage, or Ring and Percentage).

Search: Use the Search All Tables field on the home list (at the bottom of the screen on iOS 26 and later; on earlier versions, pull down the list to show it at the top) to search table names, items, categories, and notes across all tables. Tap a result to open that table with the row highlighted.

Column names: In a table, tap ⋯ → Table Settings → Column Names to rename the Category and Item headers for that table (for example, Aisle and Product). Clear the field to go back to the default. Exported CSV and Markdown use these names too.

Auto reset: In a table, tap ⋯ → Table Settings → Auto Reset and choose Daily or Weekly (with a day) and a time. When that time passes, all checks clear automatically. Great for daily bags and weekly inspections. If the app wasn't open, it resets the next time you open it (no notifications). Tap Undo at the bottom right after a reset to bring the checks back.

Export

Export a table as CSV (Excel-compatible), text (Markdown), or JSON, and save or send it with the share sheet.

Backup and restore

From the list screen menu, choose Backup / Restore to save all tables in one JSON file and import it later. We recommend a backup before changing devices or reinstalling.
