To tell the truth, I suspect that the built-in Reminders app would work just 
fine for your purposes. You can have multiple reminder lists (e.g. one for your 
shopping list, one for a project you are working on) and you can of course have 
many reminders per list. These reminders may be associated with a time and/or a 
location, or neither. For example, entries in a list of books you'd like to 
read might not have to have any time or location associated with them. You 
might just want a static list of items with the ability to check off the ones 
you are finished with. Aside from location-based reminders, there is the 
ability to set up complex recurring rules as well as synchronization with 
Microsoft Exchange or iCloud. I would recommend giving it a try to see if its 
features are sufficient.
