This would make my household (4 persons) gladly switch to simplenote. :>

Any word on considering this request?

[rafaberaldo]

Would love to see this too!

This is something we definitely plan on implementing at some point but haven't yet and probably won't be able to get in for a couple of releases. I think that somehow it should already be working with the Markdown rendering but that obviously isn't. We would absolutely welcome some help on this! 😄

In the meantime is it somehow possible according to #309 using GFM? Couldn't get it to work though.

@johnkjoseph this is on my own personal backlog to try and track down. I'm simply not sure why it's not working is all.

Yes, checklists would be great. Unfortunately, the [ and ] are hard to get to on Android if it follows this syntax. But I suppose a hard to use standard is better than no standard at all. Maybe I need to find a markdown friendly Android keyboard? :-)

I agree that checklists would be great. Especially if they can be activated/deactivated by clicking on the box.

+1 for Markdown checkbox support. Would be very useful

Yeah, checkbox in Simplenote would be awesome!

I was under the impression that this was already submited in the repository and would be inlcuded in the 1.1.0 update yet when i try to show a checkbox i only get this

Thanks everyone! Since we do support markdown checklists now (kind of), I'm closing this in favor of more specific enhancements: #874 #875 #876
