Reviewers mostly see Todoist as a fast, reliable task manager that stays useful because it is simple, easy to learn, and consistent across devices. They repeatedly praise quick task capture, natural-language scheduling, recurring tasks, integrations, and enough flexibility for personal use or small teams without feeling heavy. Several say it beats more complex tools by focusing on tasks well. The main complaints are that it feels behind on AI and automation, misses some planning features like start dates, and can put useful features behind paid tiers.

I've been using Todoist for a few months now and it really helps provide an easy and straightforward way to organize my tasks. A lot of the other platforms seem to have a lot that can discourage ease of use for individuals, Todoist on the other hand just feels right.

Still the best app for the handling of tasks and tasks alone. There's apps that do more, but they don't handle tasks with the simplicity and power of Todoist and with its affordable price point, it's a bit of a no brainer for me to keep this one around.

I've used Todoist for years. I love the simplicity of the App. However, I love that there is the ability to be more custom/create uniqueness to help with specific projects or tasks. The App is designed beautifully and I never have ran into a bug or issue.

It was amazing for years... now it seems to be falling behind with AI agents, thought I have not found a better alternative. It needs a LLM operator to whom you can talk (or chat) and understands the context of all your tasks and projects so that it can modify them. Like you would tell chatgpt.

Simple elegant solution for light self tasking, or organising task for upto 3 people in my experience. Good for capturing ideas and thoughts, you can make upto 5 projects which is ample

Always end up coming back to Todoist because of how I can use it across my Apple and Window devices. You get everything you need in the free version too which is great 👍

I've been using it for many years and I love all the features, especially how it works in terms of the recurrence of tasks and the use of natural language.

Super user freidnly, neat and clear interface with good and necessary features. However, would be perfect to be able to collaborate with other accounts.
