I am trying to move items from one list to another and make it show in a list-viewer form in my app.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/9/e9ee73c32ef73525d63aa5be01bf7654fa8b3ccc.png)

You can see the “get # 1” block, which I messed up. I want it to move items one by one, or even easier all of it, into another list.

I used variables for the lists, as I saw another post about it. One list/variable is called "List names, and the other is called “used names list”. The “repeat process name” variable is what I am trying to move from one list to another.

Thanks in advance!

To copy whatever in `List Names` to `Used Names List` just use the blocks to set one variable to the other.

No you are starting `stored variable Used Names List` and assigning at an empty list. Instead of the empty list assign it `stored variable List Names` this will copy the list `List Names` to the list `Used Names List`.

Hope that helps
