I cannot do life without this tool. It takes a bit to get used to all the options and how to set it up best, but once it’s set up to fit your life, this powerful tool is a game changer to keeping me on task and allows me the head space to be fully focused with others when I’m not completing tasks. The daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly reminders are perfect for things I do regularly and don’t want to try to remember when I did it last. The import from a spreadsheet is perfect for my grad classes to easily copy and paste from the syllabus and import the tasks into Todoist. The different ways to view the task lists are flexible depending on my needs for that list. I love that I can set something to remind me every few days to do something and with the additional paid for features, I can keep on top of everything even more granularly. It is the perfect tool and I have not come across anything I’ve wanted to do that it cannot do. Their help section on their website is fantastic for figuring out how to do various things, no matter what I dream up. I used the free version for a while, which worked great, but about 6 months in, I realized the paid for version was worth it for the additional projects and for the deadline so I could have various school projects show up daily before the deadline and I could still remember when it HAD to be turned in. Get it - you won’t regret it. The best task tool I have ever found and it keeps me sane.

Hi!! I wanted to leave a review because I absolutely love this app. It’s been really helpful and easy to use / integrate into my daily routine. I’ve streamlined my work and personal routines, using the app to help me prioritize items and remember to do things. Being in the software realm, I do have some feature recommendations, too 🙃: - An “end of day” for projects option: like the end of a regular comes, I would like to set an end of day for work related tasks/projects. My recommendation stems from being able to reschedule items as easily at the end of my workday as it is at the end of the real day. I tend to be a little over ambitious with my work tasks… - An option to hide certain items until a future time: I like to put weekly items (specifically meetings and other weekly tasks) into my work project. I like seeing my open “tasks”, but I don’t want to see these weekly items once I’ve completed them for next week because that clutters up the board. I end up only displaying things a week at a time to adjust for this (and then periodically setting the view for a longer term to check on things), but it would be awesome to see more of my long term items or things that I plan to do later in the board without weekly (or daily) clutter.

Update: after using this app for a month, I have started to realize why I hate it so much. I work more than 80 hours a week. I run a business and a nonprofit. I am always busy, but usually with putting out fires. It is the nature of my work. People call me when they need help right away. I can’t really say, “Let me enter that task into ToDoist and get back to you eventually.” If I dont help people fast, they won’t need my help later. I get stuff done all the time, but my ToDoist list sits there nagging me, saying, You have outstanding tasks. The app gives me no credit for the crises I managed. If I had a life where my work load was predictable even a week in advance, this app would be much more useful. Why doesn’t this app try harder to help someone like me, who’s day always changes with the next phone call or email? I can’t be the only one in this situation. I am having more success with this app than I have had with similar apps. However, when it tries to help out by using natural language to do what you want, it often makes things harder. If I want to have an item on my to do list like prepare for Sunday, it keeps trying to put it on Sunday’s tasks. Also, I still have no idea where things are, and can only find them by random chance. For example, I want to look at the things I have done, and I have no idea where that folder is, even though I’ve been there before. I’m using it, but I can’t say I like it.

I’ve been using Todoist for several years now. I have ADHD, full disclosure, and this app is a lifesaver. I started using it just with work - juggling so many projects, follow ups, and stupid tedious tasks was (still is) impossible for me to keep track of. I never used paper planners consistently 😭 Routine is the #1 thing I struggle with. I come back to Todoist everyday because I gotta keep my karma and streaks going 🤣 my current streak is 107 weeks (I forgot to turn todoist vacation on before my current streak and I cried when I came back!) Slowly, I began incorporating personal tasks - budget, wellness, some of those goal check-ins, reminders to schedule a doctor appointment and send birthday cards. Pretty much every facet of my life is touched by Todoist now. Its also enabled me to be goal-oriented…something I never thought I’d say. Because Todoist is helping me track all categories of my life, I can set tasks and recurring things that will push the pin of my goals a little further each week or month. Fast forward to today, Im beginning to introduce Todoist to my team - and we’re creating a team in it! Im excited to not have to remind my coworkers to water their office succulents anymore 🤣 we have a recurring task and reminder for that!

I really have loved this app, but I need to be able to schedule projects and reminders to try to help as I am permanently disabled and am trying to market my art on a PT basis. Right now, I am one senior citizen living alone, and paying close to $50 a year for these basic functionalities unfortunately makes the app unfeasible for me. If my finances were to significantly improve as a result of using those added features to functionality, I absolutely would be able and willing to pay a yearly subscription fee as well as would likely evangelize them all over the Internet as in the past I have blogged, written articles and done projects with major sites like Fitness Magazine, Coping with Cancer, Lifehack, and more. Now I am disabled and trying to regroup and revisit some of these creative abilities (art and writing, especially), and I really need those functionalities of projects and reminders. I was disappointed when, on my previous review the developer responded, inviting me to contact him to see how he could help, only for there to be no response when I did so and even said I am willing to provide proof of Social Security Disability. This is a great app, but unfortunately some basic functionality is simply too cost-prohibitive for a disabled senior citizen trying to find a way to climb up. Maybe someday.

If you’re just looking for an app to help you plan your garage cleaning and family vacation there are better looking and simpler options out there. If you need an app for professional use, where due dates and times are not merely “goals” (yeah I’m looking at you “GTD” method) but are actual real world cannot be missed deadlines, this is the app. If you need an app that allows you to have those dates appear in your calendar (your calendar, not just the app’s upcoming forecast of events) this is your app (the Fantastical 2 way sync is killer). If you prefer not to spend more time trying to figure out how to do things in the app than actually doing them (did anyone say “Omnifocus“) this is the one. Collaboration, ability to easily add notes and attachments on both the project and task level, straightforward interface, relatively easy to learn functions with good web documentation, TEMPLATES (a feature that for some inexplicable reason other apps seem to openly resist adding but is a no-brainer for those who have the same task and deadline structure for multiple projects, like I don’t know pretty much anyone who is in business and/or works with standardized contracts), sub-tasks, multiple reminder options, this one does it right. You will not see the benefit of the forgoing without the premium subscription, but $38 a year is a bargain for the features and functionality you get.
