👋 Welcome to ColorQueueList

ColorQueueList is designed for one thing: capturing your tasks as fast as possible while keeping everything visually organized with color-coded categories.

Here's the core workflow:

1. Type your task in the input field
2. Press Enter (or tap the add button)
3. Done! Your task is added instantly

🎯 Understanding the Interface

The main screen shows your tasks grouped by category. Each category has a distinctive color, making it easy to scan and find what you need.

• Input field at top: Always ready for your next task
• Category tabs: Switch between different views
• Task list: Your items with checkboxes
• Completed section: Folded by default to keep focus

⚡ Instant Entry

The input field is always at the top, ready for your next thought. Just start typing—no need to tap anywhere first.

• Type your task and press Enter
• New items go to the currently selected category
• The input clears immediately for your next entry

✏️ Editing Items

Tap on any item to edit its text. The keyboard will appear automatically. When you're done, tap elsewhere or press Enter to save.

✅ Completing Items

Tap the checkbox to mark an item complete. Completed items move to a collapsed "Completed" section at the bottom. After 7 days, completed items are automatically deleted to keep your list fresh.
