What is your favorite todo list?

Question

Simplicity is better, some sort of mobile interface is good.

Ian Kyburz · Accepted Answer

Has a huge potential. Easy to handle, various reenditions / views. Great tool!

Kunal Bhatia · Answer

Todoist is super simple and powerful. It's available on almost any platform you can think of, so I highly recommend it!

Alexander Spoor · Answer

Nothing else comes close in my opinion. Custom labels. Projects in projects. Task hierarchy. Location based reminders. Powerful desktop, iOS and Android app. Google Calendar integration. Comments and attachments per list item. The shared list* goes on.

Stefan Theofilos · Answer

I recently adopted Todoist and it's great! Very minimal and I like it's widget

Cédric Waldburger · Answer

Unlike most collaborative task managers, Sendtask allows you to work with literally anyone. Recipients of tasks don't need to create an account ever. This allows you to manage all your coworkers, freelancers and 3rd party providers in one place. Also offers a very simple and efficient email and Slack integration.

Niv Dror · Answer

I just spent the $9.99 for the Clear Mac app yesterday. So far, love the gestures and the sound effects (which I am usually not the biggest fan of in apps) are actually pretty cool! Makes me want to add more things to the list and check them off 😊. Impressed so far, really good app rating. There are also free alternatives... but if its something I (plan on) using multiple times a day, I almost prefer to pay for it so it's quality / makes me wanna use it.

Trifon Tsvetkov · Answer

I use Sendtask to manage all of my actionable info. If something needs to get done, it goes to Sendtask. It has a clean design that allows you to focus. In addition, Sendtask provides some unique functionality - forwarding tasks directly from Email, Slack and Evernote while bringing advanced collaboration features to third-party working relationships. (not just with your team).

Tatiana Sinitsyna · Answer

I would like you to pay your attention to the Hygger dashboard that has its comfortable checklist. You can see your current tasks that combine the entire amount of your daily (or weekly) work.  Every task you've done reduces the total amount of the work - it shows your real progress!

Answer

Its not just a task management app. It has docs - wiki too. 
very minimal and clear interface with power packed features!

If you haven't tried yet, give a try and see the difference.

Alex Dow · Answer

I'm in love with WeDo! I use it with my girlfriend all the time for our grocery list and such. I also use it for work since you can have multiple lists and share the list with whoever you want. Plus it's free so that's a plus haha

Nik · Answer

Even though this comes with a detailed calendar view and such, I like seeing my tasks grouped as a simple scrollable list consisting of "Today", "Tomorrow", "Upcoming" and "Someday". Swiping them off to emulate a crossing out action is satisfying too!

Artem Korotkih · Answer

Clean and easy to use. All things to-do in one place. No onboarding for collaborators 😍

Hamayak Harutyunov · Answer

Task manager with clean and minimalistic design, which helps you concentrate on getting things done, another important feature is integration with different services, such as Email, Slack and Evernote as it solves the problem to share tasks/to-dos and collaborate with anyone, even if they don’t have an account.

P.S. I found Sendtask as the fastest task manager ever, this is a big advantage in nowadays!

Nikhil Jois · Answer

As a productivity enthusiast who likes to experiment, I've tried almost every major and niche to-do app there is. I 'keep' coming back to this classic by google.

Michael Hirsch · Answer

Taskful is fun and easy to use all while being very smart and complex. It breaks up your tasks to only show you what you need to do today so you can focus on completing them. For example, if you wanted to finish a book of 20 chapters in a week you would type in "Read 20 chapters of book" and tell it when you want to complete it and the days of the week you want to read and then it will show you each day how many chapters of the book you need to read... along with all of your other tasks of course.

Mucahit Gayiran · Answer

Great collaboration feature and simple to use.

Roger Lu · Answer

Taskade is one of the simplest todo list apps, but it's also so much more, and very friendly and fun to use.

Shosemaru Yamaguchi · Answer

Brendan Beirne · Answer

I like keeping daily to-dos in a Moleskine.

Ben Gubler · Answer

It's really simple and non-distracting. It is kind of hard to create to-do's, though...

Sebastian Crossa · Answer

Best todo list out there. Flexible and efficient. Completely recommend!

Adrian Baussen · Answer

I also like Google Keep. For me it feels like "Evernote meets Wunderlist". Keep also reminds me of using PostIt notes on my desk.

Todd Soulas · Answer

I am surprised this isn't in here yet! But I like workflowy for the combination of simplicity and flexibility. I can use it to manage small projects and write lists for my grocery shopping.

Answer

It turns your whole life into a nested list that you can treat as as things to be complete or just as an organization of your thoughts.

D. Berebi · Answer

The daily planner is a unique feature and so helpful. I've tried so many apps (Trello, Todoist, Google Keep, Inbox, ClickUp, Notion, Workflowy, and more...) but only any.do actually worked.

Mainly because of the planner and re-schedule (postpone) features, which are critical in nowadays busy lifestyle.

See https://www.any.do/daily-planner/

Smokie · Answer

RTM's smart add syntax seems better/more reliable than other systems I've tried (and I've tried *a lot* of them). Their new update adds subtasks and start dates, things I am using far more than I thought I would. Can be used with complex GTD systems, or just remembering to buy the milk. =D

Love Todoist - perfect if you want something that just gets out of your way. There's bells and whistles, but hidden under the hood very well.

It has a nice widget to see your Day.

I've tried out a lot of different to-do list and I was surprised how I was completing tasks using Microsoft To-Do. It's basic and definitely have more room for improvement, but I love it as it is right now!

Taras Lozovyi · Answer

Great tool to track daily routine and get motivation to do things you don't want to do.
Also allows to setup habit generation process for any task.

Brandi Andres · Answer

I'm surprised Asana is so low on the list. Perhaps people don't see it as a platform for to-do lists but instead more for project management? I've tested many different listing platforms and Asana covers most of my needs.

Bryan Alcorn · Answer

Super useful templates, also has a Trello type board layout for tasks + a desktop app

Yotodo is extremely simple to use and looks great. Just give it a try :)

Nick Timms · Answer

Drag is about organizing your tasks and To-do's from inside your inbox. An average of 6.3 hours per day are spent in your email so bringing your attention outside, to anything else, is generally a longer process.

Simplicity is king. Drag's a new way to organize tasks (and things to get done) from inside your inbox.

Answer

With this app, you can create to do lists with just one click, add tasks, assign them to team members and stay away from the hassle of writing and acknowledging emails.

Answer

Tried many different tools, but Things is the one that really works for me - it's not so complex, have simple and friendly interface, allows you to organise your task in many ways (choose which suits you best). The latest version has amazing interface - it's already a pleasure just to open the app on a Mac / iPhone. And the latest features include multiple integrations which are really useful.

Timon Reinhard · Answer

Simple, fast and versatile to-do list with calendar integration.

Rajat · Answer

Extremely simple to use but is also feature-rich. Available on every major platform out there. I use it everyday.

Michiel · Answer

It's super simple to use, tasks are listed per week and team functionality is built in. Plus it's completely free!

Valentina Concato · Answer

I tried many apps, and this one is the one and only that actually help me to get things done! It's a bit of Wunderlist and a bit of Trello, but with gantt charts! I love it. The one thing missing is the ability to assign subtasks to others, but at the moment no app has that feature!

I'm a big wunderlist fan. This is one Todo list software I stuck to for quite some time. I'm now waiting for the MIcrosoft Todo app by Wunderlist team :-)

Ray Nestor · Answer

Clean, Simple and gets the basics right. I, too, am waiting for Todo App.

Ivan Burban · Answer

Waiting for big updates. In general, WL is great, but we need something better, than 5 years ago.

Answer

Huge fan of Todoist for free solo todos and Bitrix24 for free group todos - https://www.bitrix24.com/features/tasks.php

Allan Caeg · Answer

I use a combination of Reminders and Google Inbox.

This is such a crowded space and it's extremely difficult to differentiate...

At the end of the day, sticking to giants like Apple and Google is safe, especially if you care about the company not shutting down soon

Rodney Kuhn · Answer

It's a great choice because the vast number of To Do items come in via email and it makes sense to deal with them at the source.
