How to Make a Checklist in Notes Ios 10
While the Notes app is a great place to store your thoughts, ideas, and other random bits of information that you need handy, it's also great to collaborate with others on. For example, you can create a shared checklist for the groceries with your significant other or even bounce ideas off with a colleague for your next big project. All of this is possible right on your best iPhone or iPad simply by sharing notes.
If you're wondering how to share notes on iPhone through the Notes app, here's how.
How to invite people to make changes to notes on iPhone and iPad
Once you've started a note, you can invite others to view and collaborate on it with you.
- Open the Notes app.

The recipients will receive a link to the note in iCloud, which they can then use to collaborate on iPhone and iPad running iOS 10 or later or on iCloud with a Mac or PC.
How to work on a note on iPhone or iPad in real-time with others
Once invited, others can begin editing and adding content to your note. Whether it's a checklist, photo, or sketch, everyone can collaborate.
You can see, in real-time, the phrases being edited. When another person is editing a note, you'll see their words highlighted on the screen. If you come across such activity, try to hold off adding your own information until the other person is finished. This, unfortunately, can cause some complications when multiple people are trying to edit the same thing. Since updates are synced via iCloud, you might start typing something, only to see it disappear a few seconds later.
How to see what has changed in a note, even when not in real-time
You can see changes others have made with the Highlight Changes feature. This makes it easier to see what's been added without having to watch it change in real-time.
- Open the Notes app.
-
Navigate to the Note that is being shared.

-
Tap the Highlight All Changes switch to turn it on.

The color of the highlight will be based on the person that made the changes. Unfortunately, the colors picked are not customizable.

New note collaboration features coming in iOS 15 and iPadOS 15
Apple occasionally offers updates to iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, and macOS as closed developer previews or public betas. While the betas contain new features, they also contain pre-release bugs that can prevent the normal use of your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, or Mac, and are not intended for everyday use on a primary device. That's why we strongly recommend staying away from developer previews unless you need them for software development, and using the public betas with caution. If you depend on your devices, wait for the final release.
Apple has revealed the upcoming iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 updates for iPhone and best iPads coming this fall. There will be some big changes coming in terms of collaboration in Notes, making it even easier to keep track of changes and even bringing parts of a note to someone's attention with @Mentions. If you have the iOS 15 developer beta or iPadOS 15 developer beta, you can try these features out for yourself. The public betas are expected to go live sometime in July.
In iOS 15 and iPadOS 15, you can now make Mentions. To do this, all you have to do is just type an @ sign and then the name of the collaborator that you want. Doing an @Mention will notify the person of important updates and take them directly to the note from the notification.
You can also swipe right anywhere in a note to display details of who made changes and where. These highlights also show edit times and dates, along with highlighted text color-coded to match each collaborator.
A new Activity view also lets you easily see more at-a-glance. With this, you can see a summary of updates that have happened to the note since your last viewing of it, and there is a day-to-day list of activity from each collaborator involved with the note.
