Who each one suits

Daily Checklist

  • People who plan one day at a time and check tasks off
  • Keeping work, shopping and study lists in separate tabs
  • Users who want a to-do app with no account and data kept on the device

Do!

  • People who want a to-do list that looks and sounds like pen and paper
  • Simple daily lists such as groceries, errands and routines
  • Users who would rather pay once than subscribe to remove ads

Worth knowing

Daily Checklist

  • The store listings say Free with in-app purchases but do not explain the trial; Google Play reviews from 2025 and 2026 say the app stops working after about a week without Premium.
  • There is no live sync: data stays on the device and moves to another one only through backup and restore.
  • It is for phones and tablets only. The site names iPhone and Android, and there is no web or desktop version.
  • Premium costs $4.99 on the US App Store and $5.99 on Google Play.

Do!

  • The free app shows ads, and removing them is a one-time purchase listed at $20.00 on the US App Store.
  • There are apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Android only; the vendor lists no web or desktop version.
  • Sync means signing in with the same account in the same app on each device, and the vendor sells several separate editions.
  • Backups are made through Dropbox or email; the listings mention no automatic cloud backup.

Key features

Daily Checklist

A list for each day
Today's tasks are checked off with one tap, a swipe moves between yesterday, today and tomorrow, and a task can be copied to today or tomorrow.
Unlimited tabs
Lists are separated into as many tabs as needed, such as Work, Shopping and Study, and each tab can hold its own notes.
Recurring tasks
A task can repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, and then appears on the list automatically on each due day.
Priorities, notes and emojis
Each task can have one of three priority levels, shown as a number of exclamation marks, a longer note, and one of more than 1,000 emojis.
Date-free lists and notifications
Static lists that are not tied to a date suit packing or grocery lists, and notifications with a custom message can be set for chosen days and times.
Backup, CSV export and print
Backup and restore moves data to another device, including between iPhone and Android. Data can be exported as CSV, and any list can be printed.

Do!

Double-tap to check off
A task is typed in as a line and marked done with a double tap, accompanied by sounds modeled on pen and paper.
Themes and fonts
Themes and fonts can be chosen to style the list, much as one would pick a favorite notebook.
Groups, colors and pins
Work, study and shopping can sit in separate groups, with colors to tell tasks apart and pins to keep chosen tasks in sight.
Repeats and reminders
Tasks can repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly, and reminders can be added to the ones that must not be missed.
Home screen widgets
Widgets keep the list on the home screen, so it can be checked without opening the app.
Sync, app lock and backups
Signing in with the same account syncs tasks across devices. The app can be locked with a passcode or Face ID, and data backed up through Dropbox or email.
