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.

GoodTask

Built on Reminders and Calendar

GoodTask works on the reminders and calendar events already on your devices, so an edit stays with the original reminder and syncs between devices through iCloud.

Smart Lists

Smart Lists bring together tasks from different lists and calendars and filter them by date, priority, tag and more, such as overdue or recently added tasks.

List, calendar, board and matrix views

A list can be shown by day, week or month, as kanban-style boards grouped by date, priority, list or tag, or as a Matrix View with four customizable quadrants.

Today Page and focus timer

Today Page lets you pick what to work on without changing due dates and shows calendar events beside the plan. Next Page focuses on one task with a timer.

Quick Actions and text snippets

A Quick Action applies a saved set of edits, such as rescheduling, changing priority, moving a task or adding tags. Presets and text snippets fill in details as you type.

Subtasks, repeats and Templates

Tasks break into subtasks and repeat on flexible schedules, and groups of tasks can be saved as Templates for routines such as a weekly review.
