Todo - Task List Organizer

My entire life revolved around this app for almost ten years. I go between Mac and PC and had the ability to sync, link and complete tasks for both work and home. However, for whatever reason, the ability to sync across all platforms vanished when the company decided to do away with its syncing to Toodledo. I tried to replace this with the Toodledo app but that isn’t working. The interface is abominable. Syncing with iCloud, which ToDo has changed to, is great but windows doesn’t recognize it. I am left with thinking about abandoning ToDo and going with Wunderlist since many seem to be pleased with this and it is cross platform. But I wanted to stay with this once small company as it is and was the only todo app that I felt worthy of my time. I have even payed for Toodledo’s annual fee just to use this app to sync across platforms. To say that I am disappointed right now (imagine 10 years of data) is an understatement. Yes the UI is second to none, but it seems as though a lot of attention has been placed on UI at the expense of utility. I would give this app a 5 if it could go back to syncing across multiple platforms.

I tried Toodledo for a couple years and felt like I needed an advanced degree to figure it out. The interface didn't play well with iDevices either. So I hunted for a one-time pay app I didn't have to create an account to use, or pay an annual subscription to, or pay for a bunch of upgrades to get the features I wanted. I really wanted an easy-to-use project manager minus all the crazy Gantt charts and nonsense. Todo immediately did everything I needed right when I installed it. The sub tasks do exactly what sub tasks should do, nested very neatly under the main task. I use it to juggle multiple projects. I can set deadlines or not. It syncs easily between my iPad and iPhone over iCloud or Dropbox. And I appreciate the notifications widget as well. I do wish there was a way I could postpone an alarm, but that's not a deal breaker for me. Thanks Todo for making an app that plays nice with iOS. After reading some other reviews I'm not sure how I'll feel about having my task list hijacked to pay again after another iOS upgrade, but I still prefer that to nickel and diming features or paying a subscription. Until then, I'll continue using it as my favorite task manager.

I love this App. I'm using the premium cloud version and it really helps me get things done and stay on track. The app is powerful and packed with features. Put some thought into what and how you want to stay organized and the app will make it happen. I use multiple lists so that I can focus on just those tasks/items instead of having a large mountain of a to do list with everything clumped together making it impossible to make any progress. With the cloud I can make updates etc while sitting at a desktop and it syncs perfectly and quickly with my phone and ipad. Before this app I was using google calendar as my task manager primarily for the cloud aspect as I'm at a computer part of the day. I wasn't able to group by "lists" and I found myself spending too much time trying to keep my tasks organized rather than getting things done. I find myself more productive with this App as its quick / simple and easy to use. I often find myself inputting items while on the go since it's effortless. If you serious about staying organized this is the app you want at a great value. The quick menu is a nice feature as is the default settings for new tasks.

I've been a todo-lists maniac for many years and this one does the job perfectly. The highlight feature I see is that you can make todos reoccurring every however many days/few days/weeks/months you want and have all lists with different colors for todos of different category or relation. You can then view all of them on a timeline together or just ones that have due dates for today and tomorrow or ones that you've started as more important or needing more time and preparation that others. Every aspect of every time of todo is covered. As for compatibility and iCloud and stuff, I'm simply using it on its own on my iPhone 6+ and no problems. At one point I thought I lost all my todos, but that's because when you tap dates on the calendar in any todo list, it hides all todos except the ones on the highlighted dates even if you leave the list you're currently viewing and go to another one, so check that if it looks like everything suddenly disappeared. Perfect app, armed with a ton of features and just not too many enough for my taste. Doesn't even need any real updates imo :)

I have revised my rating up to a 3 star after spending some time using version 10. I do not appreciate being forced to version 10 which is a lot different from version 8. I have invested a lot of time in how I organized and used ToDo. The order in my lists have changed, the interface changed, and I had no warning this was going to happen. I have finally “learned” how to do in v10 what I used to do in v8, but I have to do it differently. My biggest complaint is the lack of any notice or warning about the update. I saw the new icon as I opened it to add some tasks and it was noticeable different in organization and operation. What should have been a couple minutes to add my tasks turned into more than an hour to adapt my use and work around things that had changed. Not a good upgrade experience. Version 10 will probably ultimately be fine for me. Next time for a major change like this please give a heads up. Maybe have an update to the the current version that displays when you open it “Here is what is coming on X date” so we can plan for it.
