Turn Off Automatically Sorting to Bottom of List on Notes MacOS

When you first start using Apple Notes for Checklists you may find that as soon as you check off an item it automatically gets sorted to the bottom of the list. You can turn this sorting behavior off in Preferences (cmd + comma).

When you check an item, does it automatically drop to the bottom? You can change this behavior in Apple Notes Preferences

1. Click on Notes in Top Menu
2. Click on Preferences (or use cmd +,)
3. Uncheck ‘Automatically Sort Checked Items’ (to the bottom)
4. Now items will remain in place when checked
