Hi @shirsathdhruvau Can you share a screenshot of the blocks you are using please? You can get each item like this by using the list blocks. ---

You need to share a screenshot of the blocks you are using to generate that display. Without seeing the blocks, we have no way of knowing what’s wrong. ---

The` List Viewer` expects a list not a single line of text. Of you see the content of the `List Viewer` and combine them together you will see that this is the text of your first inout. ---

Yep, you need to provide a list for the List Viewer to display. You’re giving it a value of a single list item which is a text string. It’s the difference between setting List\_Viewer1’s text items to a list that has the value {apple, orange, lemon} which will display this: apple orange lemon And setting List\_Viewer1’s text items to “apple” which will display this: a p p l e ---

If you’re storing your list items in the variable “al” then just replace “in list [value] get #1” with “al” Just for practice, try making a simple list (e.g. {1, 2, 3} which is the default list block) and attach it to a List Viewer to see how it displays. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/6/46062d96f25de4338828f81c00e5d4d5cf87808c.png) This might help: [https://docs.thunkable.com/v/drag-and-drop/list-viewer](https://docs.thunkable.com/v/drag-and-drop/list-viewer) ---

The code you have ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/0/b0ee0fcb4f43be588a04237bc744e509cb0603fb.png) Is giving the `List Viewer` one single item. Remove the blue block and assign the List Viewer1’s text items to app variable al you it direct without any other blocks in between. ---
