It's a nicer experience that just scrolling through a long PDF/Word Doc etc -> also having some kind of quick access to pre-takeoff, landing, emergency using native navigation would reduce need to keep scrolling.

Would really like this feature with a tick system and the ability to jump to different parts, notably for different emergencies

Having to tick off an item in SkyDemon before it showed you the next (or at least require you to skip it) would make it easier to avoid missing items in a checklist. P‌ersonally I'd only use it for checklists on the ground, and possibly for in-flight emergencies. Most in-flight stuff should be done from memory however, I wouldn't want too many people doing their before-landing checklist by looking down at their tablet... A‌ndy ‌‌‌‌

A‌ndy ‌‌‌‌ I‌ actually looked into apps available to do this very thing but the best two I found had some fundamental issues (happy to share the app names if permitted!) . B‌ut actually startup and pre-landing checks when flying IFR would be a great benefit to make a paperless cockpit - i still have a printed SD plog and printed checklist to hand at all times before people scream ‌

Even having gone to some effort to set them up correctly, no-one uses them as everyone tries them once then goes back to the paper version which are easier to use than an electronic checklist.
