I've used Todoist for quite some time, and gladly pay for the premium version. I appreciate the ability to define and use as many tags as you want on items, the ability to define sections within each project. I personally add sections for backlog, in progress, and paused to help keep me focused. I switched over from Wunderlist, reluctantly, because Wunderlist is being discontinued. Todoist took me some real getting used to, because the UI is a little busier than other todo lists. However, I can safely say that after putting in this effort, I am finally arising from the mess that is my previous todo-list system into one in which I am not dropping balls and forgetting stuff. While some of that is my own personal systems, Todoists "today" and "next 7 days" windows and the natural language date and recurrence settings ('every' vs 'every. ' is a great little feature) have certainly helped me to tackle the mountain of todos I previously had. It also helps with ubiquitous capture, as it's share sheet acction thing on iOS is great, so I can quickly toss something into my inbox for later processing. There are a million to-do list apps out there, and I think I've used about half of them. I love this one, though, because I really like it's flexibility. There are just a lot of different ways to use it, and so I can use the app to manage my day the way I want to. I'm not much of a calendar person, because I'm the sort of person who thinks in terms of what I need to get done in a day and not in terms of a schedule. And this app lets me manage each day on those terms. |
On mobile, rearranging items by dragging is made difficult because tapping on an item first brings up a pretty long menu, and you have to slide your finger outside of the menu area to make the menu go away so you can drag the item to a new location. While I like being able to arrange projects into a hierarchy, I would love to be able to select a parent project and see a consolidated list of all items that isn't divided up by project and section. Tried out this to do app after seeing the demo photos in the app store. The demo images are for the PAID version. The free version is very basic and no better than Wunderlist or other similar apps. With the free version I was not able to create new folders or tags. You are stuck with the most basic and generic defaults. Even something as simple as creating ‘Home’ and ‘Work’ folders could not be done. Been a paid subscriber for awhile, Todoist has the best overall user experience in my opinion. However, I have come to find that Todoist is missing two very basic features that Microsoft Todo has. The latter's UX is not as good, but the lack of these two things prevent me from thinking Todoist is flawless. 1. When I have a repeating task, say daily, and I forget to mark it as complete on the previous days, making it as complete treats it as marking the *last* occurance as completed, and the next occurance is shown. i. |

Best Keeps Getting Better
I've used Todoist for quite some time, and gladly pay for the premium version. I appreciate the ability to define and use as many tags as you want on items, the ability to define sections within each project. I personally add sections for backlog, in progress, and paused to help keep me focused. I have few complaints: (1) on mobile, rearranging items by dragging is made difficult because tapping on an item first brings up a pretty long menu, and you have to slide your finger outside of the menu area to make the menu go away so you can drag the item to a new location. (2) While I like being able to arrange projects into a hierarchy, I would love to be able to select a parent project and see a consolidated list of all items that isn't divided up by project and section. For example, I have "work" and "personal" projects, and under each of those I have other projects like "Q3 planning", and "yardwork". and so on. If I click on the work project, I'd like to see all the items in one list, not just all the items in "work" followed by all the items in "Q3 planning" followed by sections for each other subproject.
Missing some mundane things
Been a paid subscriber for awhile, Todoist has the best overall user experience in my opinion. However, I have come to find that Todoist is missing two very basic features that Microsoft Todo has. The latter's UX is not as good, but the lack of these two things prevent me from thinking Todoist is flawless. 1. When I have a repeating task, say daily, and I forget to mark it as complete on the previous days, making it as complete treats it as marking the *last* occurance as completed, and the next occurance is shown. i.e. I haven't marked a daily task as complete for three days, marking it today treats todays occurance as complete and the next notification is tomorrow. Maybe a design decision from having to mark the same task as complete many times, but is annoying fo rme. 2. This is the sticking point for me, and I am likely going to cancel my subscription: There is no way to notify when a task is ADDED to a shared list. Todoist only notifies on shared lists when items are assigned to you, or when items are marked as completed. This is very annoying for shared lists, because you might see an item that was just added via a notification that you can quickly address. This is a bigger issue for shopping lists. My wife adds some items to the list, I have no idea unless I open the app to see, or unless she assigns them to me (assuming I am the one going to shop).
Like the service, application buggy
I like Todoist as a program. It has good features and definitely works to help keep me more organized and help me track tasks and projects. The Todoist app has some glaring bugs, however. Sometimes, after it has been open for a little bit, it does this weird thing where the little blinking line goes away when you're typing. You can still type, but there is no blinking line so it's hard to track where you. When this thing with the blinking line starts, it usually also will do this thing where the feedback from the interface stops. Normally, you can hover over the dots on the side that allow you to drag a task to rearrange its position in a list but sometimes that will just stop. You can still select a task but if you are just hovering over the dots, it won't change the interface at all, which is confusing for using the program. When these things happen, I usually just quit the app and relaunch it. This sometimes works to remedy the problem but often does not. Another issue that sometimes happens but that cannot be fixed by relaunching the app is that occasionally the circle that you can click to check off a task will just disappear on certain tasks. So overall I like the features of Todoist and its layoout and all that but this particular app has some issues.
Worth the effort
I switched over from Wunderlist, reluctantly, because Wunderlist is being discontinued. Todoist took me some real getting used to, because the UI is a little busier than other todo lists. However, I can safely say that after putting in this effort, I am finally arising from the mess that is my previous todo-list system into one in which I am not dropping balls and forgetting stuff. While some of that is my own personal systems, Todoists "today" and "next 7 days" windows and the natural language date and recurrence settings ('every' vs 'every!' is a great little feature) have certainly helped me to tackle the mountain of todos I previously had. It also helps with ubiquitous capture, as it's share sheet acction thing on iOS is great, so I can quickly toss something into my inbox for later processing. I just switched to pro or premium or whatever for the ability to forward emails to todoist, and now I'm consistently, daily even, reaching inbox zero. In short, it won't solve your productiproblems for you, but it definitely has all the tools to let you do so.
An Awesome App
There are a million to-do list apps out there, and I think I've used about half of them. I love this one, though, because I really like it's flexibility. There are just a lot of different ways to use it, and so I can use the app to manage my day the way I want to. I'm not much of a calendar person, because I'm the sort of person who thinks in terms of what I need to get done in a day and not in terms of a schedule. And this app lets me manage each day on those terms. So, I can use it to manage my work schedule, meeting agendas, random errands, my daily routine, and everything else I need to get done. But because there are so many ways to use the app, I can easily manage it all in a way that's clean and easy to follow, but also in different ways depending on what I'm doing. For example, I can use the app to easily see what all I'm doing over the course of the week, but I can use other parts of the app to only keep track of the meeting I'm running.
