One of the things I really need (and use) across all my devices is a good list making app (that's synced).
But the ability to make really good lists doesn't seem to be a feature that's well covered by Evernote. A couple of suggestions:
1) The (free) app I currently use for my lists (not Evernote btw) is one where there is a tick box so I can 'tick' the items that have been completed, and then (the really clever bit) the 'ticked' items get moved automatically to the bottom of the page. This is such a great feature, as I can see clearly what tasks still remain, but I can also refer to those that are completed - without them being all muddled together. Such a simple, yet effective idea.
The lack of this feature is major reason why I don't use Evernote that much, why I have chosen not to keep my Evernote premium subscription, and why I'm not that bothered that I can only use Evernote across two devices with the basic Evernote offering.
I would like to be able to keep my lists all within the same place.
I love the idea, but would prefer a synced version I can use across my devices.
So Evernote, what about some sort of Bullet Journal* Template or Notebook that would fulfil this purpose? (*obviously set up in a way to avoid any copyright issues). It would be great to be able to create a custom template that I could re-use time and time again.
3) It would also be great to be able to create my own list making template. I usually divide a handwritten list for the week into 4 sections like this:
IN - do
IN - phone, email, text
OUT - buy
OUT - do
I tried to set up a template to do this in Evernote, but it was too complicated, long winded and didn't work.
If anyone could point out if I've missed something that could help me do these things in Evernote, I would really appreciate it.

2) I've been looking into the concept of the Bullet Journal (http://bulletjournal.com)
