Editing Lists

Some options for customizing lists require a Super Sofa subscription. If you don’t have a subscription, some options will be disabled.

Within a single list, you have multiple options and actions available. Within a list, tap the ••• button in the top right. From there, tap “Edit List Details”. This will open a new screen with options to customize your list.

Editing List Details

This view allows you to customize many parts of a list. Each setting is saved per list, which means you can customize multiple lists in different ways.

Layout

Grid
