Although [Checkvist Bookmarklet](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/checkvist-bookmarklet/pheahjlflgbnajeilgglgcdlbkdckamf?hl=en) does provide the basic feature, it lacks polish. When I want to save a bookmark, I want saving it for later to be as [friction-free](https://www.uxpin.com/studio/blog/kill-friction-before-it-kills-your-ux/) as the Pocket Chrome extension.

With Pocket, I click the Pocket logo (effectively a button) and it saves the url to Pocket. One click and done. [No thought](https://www.sensible.com/dmmt.html) required. A popup then appears allowing me to add tags, if I want.

With the Checkvist Bookmarklet, I see the icon in a similar spot (to the right of my address bar), however, clicking it does not save the current page's url to Checkvist. Rather, it opens a menu. The first menu option, Checkvist Bookmarket, takes me to the plugin's page in the Play store, something no typical user would ever care to do. The other menu options are are not directly tied to my desire to save a bookmark in Checkvist, so more noise. Rather, you have to press Alt+Shift+C, but doing this requires a confirmation of the desired destination. More friction.

Save a url with Pocket: click.
Save a url with Checkvist: Alt+Shift+C, click Add to List. All of this plus a meaningless button on my address bar.

A good UI should at minimum allow me to specify a default list, so that when I click the Checkvist button on the address bar it's instantly added to that list. It might then present a small popup in the upper right that allows me to target another list, if I want.

With a friction-free interface for saving bookmarks, Checkvist could effectively replace Pocket (or a comparable bookmarking app) entirely.

Not sure if it is allowed by the OS/javascript but if any existing text in the filter/search text box was selected when using the / shortcut it would make for a more fluid and quicker workflow.

Generally I want to filter or search on an entirely new value when heading back up to the search/filter text box. If there's an existing filter in effect I have to hit Ctrl/Cmd + A to Select All (or click+drag to select) then click backspace or delete. If the existing text was selected at the time the shortcut key was pressed, it would cut out the middle step. If you did want to modify the existing search term you could just use the arrow keys to cancel the selection.

It would be really great to offer Basecamp integration. I work for several clients who use Basecamp as their project management tool. Although I like Basecamp, it's overkill for me to use it so I use Checkvist (and because of the awesome keyboard shortcuts).

The problem is; I still have to log in to each respective Basecamp to see my todo items there. I would like to have automatic synchronization with these Basecamps so I can see my Basecamp todo items in my Checkvist lists.

Basecamp has an API available (http://developer.37signals.com/basecamp/time-tracking.shtml) so it shouldn't be too hard. If you have an API available, please let me know, so I can build the sync tool myself.

"Show an empty text field after adding a task"
Actually both settings under this option are useful and I find myself repeatedly want to change back to previous setting after setting this on or off because of a new condition I'm working on.
When we are adding some tasks here and there we need that to be off and not be in the way.
But when we are in a list and adding some items one after another it's lovely to have this setting on but a chore to go the menu again!
So having a shortcut to toggle this on/off may add another great keyboard shortcut to Checkvist.
maybe "sf" for Show Field or "se" for Show empty and being easy to remember.

thank you again for creating the most user friendly organizig tool on the internet.

not sure if this is too much work but would be handy if i could have the ability to have a list attached to another list from a different section

heres an example

original actual list

* shopping
** food
**** bread
**** milk
**** butter
** tech gadgets
*** ipod
*** netbook
*** mp3 player

now in a different list entirely

* wish list
** (pointer to tech gadgets list)

when i then view my wish list or my shopping list I should see the same tech gadgets sub list and any change i make in either list to this tech gadgets list will be shown in both as the tech gadgets list is effectively shared across both lists
