Whether for studies, work or at home, it is necessary to know how to organize. Here are some to-do list apps that will help you manage your many to-do items, whether it’s thinking about shopping, finishing your essay, or wrapping up that project that was due for rendering in the day before yesterday.
Lazy mornings are good, procrastination too, but to know how to best manage your time in order to make the most of leisure, you still need to know how to organize yourself. Whether at work, in studies, in high school or even for chores at home, one can find very efficient applications to better manage the tasks ahead. So here are the best apps to help you manage your to do lists. Bonus: it also works for shopping lists.
Google Tasks
Google offers several different services to manage its lists and tasks. For example, there is Google Keep to manage note taking, but also Gmail reminders or the Google Home shopping list. However, the most relevant service remains Google Tasks.
This Google application is dedicated solely to managing your tasks. So you can add as many as you want. Once a task has been created, all you have to do is add a description if necessary, note a deadline and even add secondary tasks, practical if you want to detail a shopping list for example). The list can then be organized in several ways, with a personalized system or according to the due date for each task. Too bad, however, that it is not possible to add colored bookmarks according to the category of each task or to give a priority level for each entry.
Google Tasks is available on Android, but also on iOS and in Google Calendar on the web.
ToDoist
Very popular, the Todoist application is above all very complete and particularly effective. Free in its basic version — the premium adds unlimited labels, comments or reminders — it allows you to create tasks, plan their due date, display all the tasks to be done on days or weeks to come, but also to create sub-projects and priority levels. All of this can be shared with potential collaborators.
We will also appreciate the possibility of postponing a task until later with a simple swipe to the left and the different themes available, including dark mode. Note Todoist’s compatibility with the excellent IFTTT, with Wear OS watches.
Any.do
Any.do relies on a simple and rather intuitive operation based on a chronological order of tasks. So you can add items for today, tomorrow, to come and one day. To move a task, simply drag it into the calendar, a swipe indicates that it has been completed, and shaking the phone indicates that the activity should be erased.
We particularly appreciate the suggestion of tasks by category. By creating a new element, Any.do thus offers us if we want to call, obtain, buy, check or clean something. We then only have to end the sentence with the element. We also appreciate the possibility of automatically adding tasks to your Google calendar and the integration of a reminder system that can be repeated regularly.
If you agree to pay for the premium version available by subscription, you will then be able to access certain additional functions such as recurring tasks, personalized themes, unlimited daily planner, color labels or focus mode.
Microsoft To-Do
Not content with having acquired the Wunderlist application, Microsoft also offers its own to do list with Microsoft To-Do. This one stands out from the competitors with pretty pictures in the background.
When creating a new list (multiple can be managed), you can simply add tasks associated with a due date and with the possibility of integrating reminders and repetition. For each task, it is possible to add a star to put it among the priorities. A very practical function with the function of sorting by importance. It is also possible to sort the tasks by due date or simply by alphabetical order or creation date. You can also define a task as part of “my day” to be sure to add it to your all of the day.
Overall, Microsoft To-Do keeps things simple. The application is simple to understand and use. However, we may regret the absence of certain functions such as sub-lists. A gap which is nevertheless filled by the management of separate shopping lists.
TickTick
In six years, TickTick has established itself as one of the best applications for to do list. It must be said that it offers a very refined interface, but particularly complete.
When adding a new task, you can easily add tags which will be supported by the whole application. It is also possible to add a priority on four levels. Finally, you can easily add a due date and time for each task if you need to.
Once your tasks have been added, a “today” tab allows you to have at a glance all the items you have to do for the same day. Practical so as not to feel too cornered under the actions to be taken. Above all, the application is also available in a web version, convenient to access your tasks also from a computer, with efficient synchronization.
TickTick also offers a premium version, at 30 euros per year, which allows you to add a calendar view, add an estimated duration for each task or customize the options of swipe on each task.
