How we grade them
| 3.0GPADo It TomorrowVery good | 3.4GPATickTickVery good | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AThe home page says to get started free and lists no paid plans, so it counts as free outright. That rests on one page, as there's no pricing page. | CPremium is $49.99 a year, about $4.17 a month, which sits in the middle of what this category charges rather than below it. It buys 299 lists, multiple calendar views, task durations and 299 habits. The site sells it by the year only; the App Store also lists $4.99 monthly. |
| Free plan and trial | AFree outright per its home page, with no paid tier shown. | BFree for good, with sync across devices, list and kanban views and a basic calendar. 9 lists and 99 tasks a list is enough that one person could really live here, though 5 habits, 2 reminders a task and 1 attachment a day are tighter. |
| Features | CToday and Tomorrow lists, a sweep action, focus mode and a morning summary. It does that small job, and the site lists no sharing, team features or integrations. | AType a task and it picks out the date, or just say it out loud. Show a list as a board, a timeline or an Eisenhower matrix. Then the calendar, the habit tracker, the Pomodoro timer and shared lists with tasks assigned. It covers the whole job and bundles three things rivals sell separately. |
| Ease of use | BNo store rating on record, but it's a web app with nothing to set up: open it and add a task. | A4.9 from 46,196 App Store ratings. Dates and times are recognized as you type, so adding a task doesn't mean filling in a form. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, which you can add to a phone's home screen. No native apps and no integrations. | AWeb, Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, Android and a browser extension, and it connects to Notion and Google Calendar. One catch: location-based reminders are listed as iOS only. |
| Best for | a to-do list that sweeps leftovers to tomorrow | tasks, habits and a focus timer in one app |

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
