A list with check boxes is way better than a text only list. Though genetic to-do list apps are good enough for that, assuming it's a decent to-do list app in the first place.

A list with check boxes

Material notes has that.

Yeah but then it's more steps to update the list as you go. With a dedicated check list, it's just scroll to item and tap (plus the occasional close edit box if I fat fingered it lol).

Not that I'm defending the behavior in the OP. The second an app gives a "please use me" notification, it's either getting its notification settings changed or replaced with an app that doesn't do that shit (and with minimal permissions to do what I want it to do, eg a todo list app shouldn't need network access permissions).

i personally prefer simplicity. "TODO.txt" is all i need

Do you edit it while you're grocery shopping? Mine aren't usually sorted so I'm picking off things from all over the list as I shop and it's a lot easier to see what's still outstanding if there's an empty/ticked box beside each item.
