Diem - The Better To-Do List

I like it. Very simple, easy to use, and without useless features that would just complicate things. I am sure many might have certain additions they’d like but I recommend keeping it just as it is. Maybe offer a paid pro version with extra features. Personally I’d like the ability to sync this across my devices and would be happy to pay for that to help support you.

I first got the app a few days ago, and after opening it I wasn’t all that impressed. It is a small app with only one area to create list or a series of notes. I am one who has become a frequent note-taker. I am now at the point where I am trying to write down a lot of the random nonsense and ideas that come into my head somewhere. So, I didn’t use it the rest of that first day I got it. Although, I picked it back up the next day for I had a lot going through my head that I wanted to do that day—most of it little tasks and goals for that day. After using it more the second day, the app began to grow on me. It’s simple, but it’s a nice running list of daily tasks. They’re easy to add and check off. I think I’ll continue to enjoy it.

I needed this for it’s pure simplicity. With ideas constantly popping up in my head, I can’t always set aside the projects I’m doing, and it’s impossible to manage so many projects at the same time. Believe me, I’ve tried. It’s much easier to just put the ideas in the app and to them later. I only wish there was an option to snap a picture from the app to and put them there. Then I could just do a quick sketch of what I want to and save it into the app (as a photo.) Most helpful for visual thinkers, far more motivating to Get That Done! That would make it 5 stars for me!

Simplistic task app with zero “bells and whistles”. You get one place to put your tasks. No sub-tasks or grouping of tasks into projects or folders... one list... where you can see every task. No individual task reminders. You get one reminder option and that reminder is for you to check your list. You can set that reminder for every 15 minutes up to every 12 hours... and every hour/minute combination in between. Diem is wonderful for those with ADHD because it doesn’t allow individual task reminders. It allows us to focus without individual reminders distracting us constantly throughout the day. No color theme options (only dark and light). No projects or grouped task lists. No sub-tasks. No attachments. Simple. Wonderful. I have noticed a few “bugs” where I have edited a task title and then had the task tile revert back to its previous title. Not a big deal but it is something that has happened.

Can you just add the feature to have multiple pages of notes? Maybe you could even name the pages based on categories. That and a few more background colors. I love this app!
