An excellent 'app' is Excel Spreadsheets..
U can keep track of endless things ..
highlight areas in color,
add up numbers ....very, very handy.
I do one for every major project ..
the Repair Operations, the Parts, the 'things not addressed yet.'  etc.

You can add and erase or re-organize all day long on them .
It can go on a flash drive too .
