 ```
 
+### Displaying checks reports about an app
+
+> New as of 0.8.1
+
+You can get a report about the app's checks status using the `checks:report` command:
+
+```shell
+dokku checks:report
+```
+
+```
+=====> search checks information
+       Checks disabled list: none
+       Checks skipped list: none          
+=====> python-sample checks information
+       Checks disabled list: none
+       Checks skipped list: none          
+=====> ruby-sample checks information
+       Checks disabled list: _all_
+       Checks skipped list: none          
+```
+
+You can run the command for a specific app also.
+
+```shell
+dokku checks:report node-js-sample
+```
+
+```
+=====> node-js-sample checks information
+       Checks disabled list: none
+       Checks skipped list: none          
+```
+
+You can pass flags which will output only the value of the specific information you want. For example:
+
+```shell
+dokku checks:report node-js-sample --checks-disabled-list
+```
+
 ## Customizing Checks
 
 If your application needs a longer period to boot up - perhaps to load data into memory, or because of slow boot time - you may also use dokku's `checks` functionality to more precisely check whether an application can serve traffic or not.
