How to create checklist on Google Docs

A checklist helps to record, decide on details, and serves as an index for documentations. They are easy to use for evaluation.

Here are guidelines to create a checklist:

Create a checklist.

• Open Google Docs.
• Start by typing out the text in a listed order.
• Select all text by highlighting them.

• Click on the three horizontal dotted lines … or More on the slides.
• Click on the arrow beside the bulleted list icon and select the checkbox from the option listed.

• Your checkbox selected is displayed at the front of your text.

On the other hand, you can also do it this way:

• Start by clicking on the three horizontal dotted lines … or More on the slides.
• Click on the arrow beside the bulleted list icon and select the checkbox from the option listed.

• This checkbox will show in a line.

• Type out your text in front of the checkbox and press the Enter key. As this allows the checkbox to appear in a listed format.

Mark the checklist.

• Double-click on the box you want to mark off, the checkbox will be highlighted.

• Right click on the checkbox.
• Select the checkmark from the list provided ✅.

• The checkbox is changed into a checkmark, which means that you have declared your response to the checklist.
• You also can repeat the procedure for marking off other checkboxes as much as you want.
