Key features

2Do

Tasks, checklists and projects
A simple task can be turned into a checklist and then into a project with sub-tasks. Color-coded lists and List Groups keep related work together.
Natural language entry
Dates, times, repeats, alerts, durations, priority, tags, lists and saved places typed into a task title are filled into their own fields, in ten languages.
Smart Lists, tags and Focus
Searches across titles, tags, notes and dates can be saved as Smart Lists. Tags can be grouped or paused to hide their tasks, and Focus narrows a list to chosen conditions.
Sync through a service you choose
Devices sync through Dropbox, iCloud, Apple Reminders, Todoist, Toodledo, Fastmail, Fruux or another CalDAV server. A list can also be shared with people nearby over Wi-Fi.
Alarms and Nearby
A task can carry several alerts, including alarms that repeat until they are dealt with. Location-tagged tasks show up in a Nearby panel when you are close by.
Automation on the Mac
The Mac app includes an MCP server for Claude and other agents, along with AppleScript, Apple Shortcuts and URL schemes. Email sent to a private address becomes a task.

Due

Auto Snooze
An overdue reminder keeps notifying you until it is marked done or rescheduled, at intervals from 1 to 60 minutes. It repeats 5 times by default and up to 10 if configured.
Quick access times
A time picker with 12 customizable preset buttons sets or postpones a due date in one tap, and can add or subtract time from the current date.
Natural date parsing
Dates and times that you type or dictate are recognized and offered as the due date, for example "at 9am tomorrow".
Recurring reminders
Repeats range from daily and weekly to patterns such as the third Wednesday of each month or every 3 months after completion.
Reusable countdown timers
Timers are precise to the second, several can run at once, and a timer set up once is kept for reuse.
iCloud or Dropbox sync
Reminders and timers sync between iPhone, iPad and Mac through your own iCloud or Dropbox account. There is no Due account, and reminders fire without an internet connection.
