[angularjs] Clicking a checkbox with ng-click does not update the model

Why dont you use

$watch('todo',function(.....

Or another solution would be to set the todo.done inside the ng-click callback and only use ng-click

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="Ctrl">
<li  ng-repeat="todo in todos">
<input type='checkbox' ng-click='onCompleteTodo(todo)'>
    {{todo.text}} {{todo.done}}

and

$scope.onCompleteTodo = function(todo) {
        todo.done = !todo.done; //toggle value
        console.log("onCompleteTodo -done: " + todo.done + " : " + todo.text);
        $scope.current = todo;
}
