Todo for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

• By Bangbangboogie

  Agree with last reviewer. Good app, poor support, Windows App Store also at fault.

  Besides the issues below, sync has stopped working between the ios and Windows versions of the app. Todo is a good basic app if you have less than 30 or 40 things and data corruption is not an issue. It has good potential, the developers could improve the sync problems and overall app issues and make it a great utility. I upgraded to verion 3.0.4 from 3.0.2 on the App Store. The app stopped working with my supported OS version. I too was told they can reproduce the problem, but offered no fix, no previous version, just an offer to be a beta tester….(?) Software that was working and I've paid for simply has stopped working. When you have your work and personal tasks on a software program, syncing between desktops and mobiles, going a week without it is a significant 'hiccup'. Microsoft is also at fault for annihilating the last version of software updated from their App Store and offering no mechanism to download previous versions. At least on iOS apps you can pull updated apps out of the trash when they are 'upgraded to failure!' Simply going back to 3.0.2 would fix the issue for me but this simple solution seems to be too difficult for Microsoft or the developers to arrange.

  Great App.

  Todo is a great application, I’ve been using it for years. Take a look at the Todo cloud version. I’ve tried (bought) Omnifocus, Things, 2Do, Todoist, [insert the rest here] and continue to stick with Todo. Don’t get me wrong, I still look for and try any task app that comes out and retry apps when they are updated to see if I like them more. There are a couple of things I like in other apps that Todo does not have such as 1)the option of showing calendar appointments along with task 2)the ability to add a photo or recording to a task 3)a few more integrations with apps like Spark and Drafts would be nice. But all those are minor items. I find the other apps even with those things I like, have more things I dislike about the basic operation of the task management piece. I strongly sugest you try this app, particularly if you use it like I do on your Windows, iPhone and iPad and soon Microsoft Watch (I need an Microsoft intervention). Keep up the good work Appigo.

  Tried a few and this one fits my needs perfectly!

  This planning/to do app is just right. It has all the features I was looking for, but it is perfectly simple to use and appears uncluttered. The app doesn’t get in your way or make planning and tracking tasks a chore. I’ve tried apps that were too simple (missing features and didn’t allow the level of planning/task management I needed), and apps that had all the features but felt cumbersome to use. This one hits the sweet spot - full featured, but beautifully simple, clean look and interface. The advanced options are there, but they don’t overwhelm the interface. They’re easy enough to find, but not in your face if you don’t need them. I highly recommend this app. No bugs/glitches, perfectly functional, powerful without feeling complex. Well worth the price - no hidden charges or subscription required for a solid app that meets most people’s needs.

  A good start, but eh...not quite the same as the iPad & iPhone versions

  After having used this program on my iPad for well over a year and not being able to live without it, I had high expectation that this desktop version would hit the same mark. Sadly, it's fallen short. It's not as easy, doesn't look as good, doesn't have the same flexability, and honestly is just seriously lacking the quality that both the iPad and iPhone versions have. Frankly when compared to those others, it just feels like a different program all together. In buying this version, I was hoping to not have to constantly update and refer to my Todo's on my iPad when working in front of the computer. Unfortuently I find I only use the desktop for reference while still having to update my lists via my iPad. Don't get me wrong, it's certainly possible to do both but it's just not as streamlined as the other versions. And I think that's what it boils down to and what I was hoping for...a streamlined version across all three devices (iPhone, iPad, desktop) that looks, feels, and acts much the same way the two iPhone and iPad versions do. *hint *hint designers! It's a good start and idea, but I'm hoping for some major improvements so I don't regret spending the $30 so much.

  updates bring application back to my daily workflow

  I’ve used Todo for years on Windows and iOS devices. It’s a great complement to the native calendar and reminder apps, especially for things that need periodic attention (e.g. advance warning of auto-renew subscriptions). For a while I experienced issues with the iCloud sync, which crippled the app for my use-case. It’s good to see that Appigo is still actively developing and maintaining the application - and the 3.0.7 version on Windows has been rock solid for me. I think it’s the best of category for to-do applications. Give it a try!
