![]() I honestly can't think of a to-do app with integrated calendaring, all the features you're looking for, as well as widgets as robust as TickTick. I'll keep thinking.Just to clarify: you're looking for a single app that is both full fledged Todo and calendar app? Like, not just a way to see scheduled tasks on a calendar, but a to-do list app that also lets you do everything a calendar app would? (I think it's worth it for all the extra features you get, been a subscriber for years.) TickTick's calendar functionality is much better if you subscribe, but you might not want to do that. Just to clarify: you're looking for a single app that is both full fledged Todo and calendar app? No adding tags through hashtag or anyway on the widget. Otherwise I have to go into the app itself and specify the list. All the events and colored and add events from within the widget window, but it automatically add tasks to the default list. Not so intuitive.Īny.do on the other side does calendar perfectly. It doesn't show recurring events, and when you add a new event it opens another app. This app bills itself as a personal to-do manager that is aimed at helping busy people get more organized. However it definitely lacks when it come to planning and using calendar. Remember the Milk (Top Any.do competitor for ease of use) If you are in the market for an Any.do competitor that is known for being user-friendly, perhaps you should check out Remember the Milk. It is a key feature for me to be able to do everything using home screen widgets as going into the app is too much work, and if something takes that much work I will just stop doing it eventually. Very simple and clear and efficient and packs all the features and all the widgets. They do always release a lot of cool new features, but the design is not as user-friendly as in Todoist, its still a little. Now Ticktick is hands-down the best to-do experience I have had. So it makes more sense just to use one app for both calendar and to-do lists. Normal tasks show up at the top of the day in a separate section, and events display like in a normal calendar.See I don't like having apps with overlapping functionality. Events: something to do on a given day, at a given time, with a deadline.Normal task: something to do on a given day but not at a given time.I can choose to have tasks set as 2 types of events in the calendar: When I move a task around in my TickTick calendar, it gets updated instantly in the various lists across my account, there’s no delay. It’s inside the app, and it won’t conflict with my Google Calendar from the office. The TickTick calendar doesn’t use any external third party to integrate. TickTick has that, and it’s honestly the best thing since sliced bread. It would be much better if Todoist had its own dedicate calendar module. Sure, I could log out of my office Google Calendar and login to my personal one, to then set up Todoist to sync with this one and not the other one, but it’s just a hassle. So I need 2 completely independent systems. ![]() I use Google Calendar at my office job, and my own app for my personal work. Third, it creates a mix of Google Calendar meeting events and Todoist tasks, which quickly becomes impossible to manage. So I have to go in Todoist and check it off, and this might conflict with the duration of the event in Google Calendar. If I delete it, well it will be gone, it won’t count as done. But when I planned for this task I set it to last for 1 hour, so now it’s still showing in my calendar. If I have a task set for 10am on Friday and I’m done with it at 10:30am, then I’ll want to check it off. Second, there is no way to check off an item from Google Calendar. There is a delay (that can be pretty long) to refresh both the Todoist tasks list and the Google Calendar, it’s not efficient or user friendly at all. If you like shuffling your tasks around like I do, trying out different ways of organising, Todoist won’t keep up. This causes various issues.įirst, syncing delays. The way it works is by connecting it to your Google Calendar, and syncing your tasks from inside the app. That’s because the app still (after many feature requests) doesn’t have a built-in calendar view. You might be surprised to see that the Todoist calendar is in fact a Google Calendar. ![]()
