Todoist: To-Do List & Tasks

I understand the whole devops, small and frequent changes ideal, but this app should not requre multiple updates per week.

I've always been skeptical about productivity apps, as many seem to be just more of the same—offering no real innovation or solution to the chaos of daily tasks. However, Todoist has proven to be a delightful exception. Five years ago, I discovered the GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology, and since then, I've made multiple attempts to integrate it into my life and work, though without much success. The main challenge was my inability to adhere to a set schedule due to the unpredictable demands of my job. As tasks accumulated, my backlog of incomplete tasks grew, turning the management of my inbox and scheduling into an overwhelming burden. This year, after exploring numerous tools, I stumbled upon Todoist—and what a game-changer it has been! Just one week into using Todoist, I have already checked off over 50 tasks and have a clear plan for the upcoming week. The app's intuitive design and powerful features have finally made it possible for me to manage my tasks effectively without the stress. What sets Todoist apart for me is its board view, a feature that was missing in many other tools I tried. Additionally, the simplicity with which you can add a task, along with setting priorities, due dates, labels, and reminders directly from the input text, are standout features that have significantly enhanced my productivity. I am eagerly looking forward to how Todoist will support my monthly, quarterly, and annual reviews. More updates to come as I continue to explore this incredible tool. For now, if you're like me—skeptical of the myriad of similar apps out there—I highly recommend giving Todoist a try. It might just change your life as it has mine!

I used Todoist on a trial basis as I was looking at a different task manager. After using Todoist on a trial basis, I am going back to Things 3 which is what I used to use. I like the integration options and the mechanics of how the Todoist works. I just could not get past how bland and boring the interface is. The inability to customize it, particularly with colors to my liking, was the deciding factor. For instance, you can put a color on a tag, but literally, just the outline of the tag has the color. I can't see it or distiguish it from any of the other tags. I've been using a color-coded system my whole life and I don't feel like changing. I get that the developers may not want a lot of color in their application like Things 3 or 2Do, but I wish more color customization was included, and you could either turn it on and off depending on your preference. Todoist is an excellent application and I definitely recommend trying it out.

I subscribed to Todoist Premium a month ago and since then I've been unable to login to their Mac or Windows native apps. Support hasn't helped nor has Apple issued a refund.

doesnt sync in real time compared to other to do apps, has a sync button but it never updates quickly with what i have done on my phone. I have to grab my phone making it useless on my mac

App not working after update. Opens and is completely blank white. I quit and reopen same thing. Rebooted the mac no change.

This is a superb application. It is easy to use, yet provides as much (or as little) in the way of features as one needs. It is powerful but doesn't get in the way. I started using this years ago and have never looked back.

Great app - bugs, when they pop up, are squashed quickly. Great work!

I'm trying Todoist after using Reminders for a long time, but a couple bugs they haven't fixed are problematic, and I used Wunderlist for years before MS bought it... I'm trying out Todoist and TickTick as my possible replacements. Ticktick has some annoying UI/UX things, but some of their feature implementations work better than in Todoist... Todoist is WAY more polished/refined from a UI perspective there there are a lot of small annoyances in TickTick that add-up; for example, creating a clickable link in Todoist is way cleaner looking than in TickTick... but while in general the UI tends to be overall better, there are some design decisions that create a lot of extra clicking around in Todoist that I don't have to do in Reminders or TickTick; e.g. the "Labels"/Tags get burried in another menu and you have to add them to a "Favorites" list to show up in the sidebar (which you can't change the order they appear). Another example is setting up Recurrence can only be done with NLP, which sometimes you just want a UI setting to go change... we're used to it from Calendar recurrences, or Reminders or Wunderlist MS Todo... Taking away the UI element for this and using only NLP feels awkward... Provide NLP, but also provide the UI settings to interact with (also TickTick has some great Recurrence options I'd like Todoist to adopt). Feature sets between TickTick and Todoist are very close, but they are both also full of annoyances and I feel like I'm making a decision based on which UI/UX design decisions annoy me less, vs making my decisions based more than which tool "Wows" me. I was expecting to be "Wowed" based on the previous reviews and accolades, and frankly, I'm just kind of "Meh, it's okay."

Downloaded and deleted. If I have to pay for reminders on my Mac, I'm out. That's crazy.
