You know that feeling of finishing a big checklist? And the confetti, right?

But what if no one notices that you just completed the checklist brilliantly?

Now you have to do it manually and let them know that you're done.

Until now. A little side note:

A is the person responsible for quality assurance and monitoring of the mapped process. He is interested in the progress and problems that occur during the completion of the checklist.

With the new release, the template manager receives a notification about the completion of a checklist.

As soon as someone completes a checklist for which a template manager has been set, this person receives a notification to the e-mail address provided. Attached to this email will be the completed checklist as a PDF including possible annotations and images.

This way, the person in charge has the immediate opportunity to react to any notes, comments or problems and does not have to proactively search for the hints.

And that is just the beginning. We want checklists to significantly increase the productivity and efficiency of processes and repetitive processes. That's why we need your help: What important events do you want to be informed about?

Tell us about your use cases, tell us what you need, so that together we can achieve exactly this goal.

If empty states mean yawning emptiness, then they do not help to quickly get started with the evaluation of an app.

That's why we now provide you with a suitable default template when you install our Checklists app in Jira and Confluence.

So you can get started right away and put our app through its paces without having to use our template manager directly. Getting to know and using our app quickly is crucial for us - get in touch if you have any questions!

You can decide for which issue types in your project you want to assign which checklist template automatically. If a new issue is created afterward, this issue will have the selected checklist attached automatically.

This is how you do it:

In our view, this new issue really changes the way our checklist app can be used. Up until now, you had to rely on individuals to create a checklist whenever it was needed. Now you can automate the creation of a checklist and get more control of the wholistic workflow in Jira.

If you want to assign a checklist to an issue in Jira Cloud there is now a convenient way to do so:

We're proud to announce, that we have published a companion app for your iPhones, iPads, and Android devices, that will make working on your checklists much faster and easier.

Especially creating new checklists will be a breeze as our app will remember all templates you ever used in any of your accounts and allow you to recreate a checklist instance from it with a single click. Gone is the search for the right link or a QR code.

We have worked more than a month meticulously to present something that is production-ready. We're using it internally daily. And Martin claims that he hasn't used the web interface in three weeks although he's filling out two checklists every day. You should really try it out.

We're proud to announce that our checklist solution is now also available for Jira Cloud. It's approved in the Atlassian Marketplace since today.

This app is fully compatible with our Confluence solution. So if you're using both Jira and Confluence in the Atlassian Cloud the data will be in synch and you'll find the same templates and checklists in both software products if you have installed our checklists solution. The Confluence version in the Marketplace is here.

If you insert a link to a checklist or a generation link into a Confluence page, it will automatically turn into a checklist macro that renders your content in a useful way. This is how it works for checklists:

or

or simply copy the URL of a checklist from a browser window.

If you paste a link to automatically convert to a checklist button.

This also works with public checklist and template links from other instances.

We have added the ability to create a completely new template directly from within the "/checklist" and the "/Checklist template" macro in Confluence pages.

We believe that this has the benefit for users to simplify the onboarding process. Creating templates is crucial for our checklist solution. So making this easier is important for the acceptance of the solution also in your organization.

Please note that this feature is not part of the "/Checklist button" macro though.

We have added a simple feature to add text-only notes and images to checklists. We allow for one text and one picture. Once added both can be erased or changed / replaced.

This is how this section looks like in the exported PDF:

This was our most requested feature with the highest votes and most discussions yet. The implementation still has some final visual glitches (e.g. unwanted horizontal scrollbar on mobile), that we'll fix in due course. But it's ready for your testing and we're hoping for feedback.

We have done away with the old layover and created a simple modal that will be presented to new users until they go through it once.
