There are lots of list apps out there to help people organize tasks they need to complete or to keep content in check. The Socialist app is different. The cleverly named smartphone application helps you organize the things you love, like your favorite films or restaurants. In addition to creating, you can also [collaborate on and share your lists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/letssynq).

From developers The BKRY and Awkward, Socialist has also partnered with dozens of companies like [Netflix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelf-app) and iTunes to make your lists actionable making it stand out from other list apps even more. Inherently social, the iOS app gives you the opportunity to explore other people's lists and connect with your friends through an Activity Feed, not to mention collaborative and syncing features.
