Eisenhower

TickTick

Eisenhower

The free Ike plan shows ads and keeps only 10 completed tasks per quadrant; task details, due dates, the Inbox and Dark Mode need General.
General and President are billed yearly at $58.80 and $118.80. The terms say the monthly prices shown are yearly equivalents.
The iPhone app is a separate $2.99 purchase, and the help page says there is no Android app yet.
Board and Calendar views and AI agent access are limited to the President plan.

TickTick

The free plan is capped at 9 lists, 99 tasks per list, 5 habits and 1 attachment per day.
Multiple calendar views, task duration and email reminders are listed as Premium features.
The pricing page shows Premium only as a $49.99 annual plan; a $4.99 monthly option appears on the App Store listing.
Location-based reminders are listed as iOS only.

Eisenhower

Four-quadrant matrix: Tasks are filed under Do first, Schedule, Delegate or Don't do, and moved by drag and drop when priorities change. Counters and a warning discourage more than about eight tasks in a quadrant.
Focus Mode timer: A Pomodoro-like egg timer gives one task the whole screen for 25 minutes by default or a chosen duration, with optional halfway and time-up notifications.
Scheduling and delegation: A task can be scheduled in Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook, and the delegate action prepares an email or share dialog containing the task description.
Sync between web and iPhone: Signing in with the same account keeps the web app and the iPhone app in sync automatically. Sign-in works with Apple, Google or an email and password.
Goals, Board and Calendar views: General shows quarterly goals next to the matrix. President adds a full Goals view, a kanban Board and a Calendar with month, week and queue layouts for due dates.
AI agent access: On the President plan an outside AI assistant can read or change tasks, goals, labels and comments through MCP or an API, using personal access tokens that can be revoked.

TickTick

Typed and spoken task capture: Dates and times are recognized as a task is typed. Voice Capture turns speech into one or more tasks and uses AI to pull out dates and priorities.
Calendar views: Yearly, monthly, weekly, multi-day, multi-week and agenda views show tasks alongside subscribed calendars. The free plan has a basic calendar view; Premium lists multiple views.
Kanban, timeline and matrix: A list can be shown as a kanban board, as a timeline for tasks that have a duration, or as an Eisenhower matrix that sorts tasks by urgency and importance.
Pomodoro timer: Work on a task in 25-minute focus intervals. Statistics report focus time next to completed tasks and habit logs.
Habit tracker: Habits are logged and charted in the same app as tasks. The free plan allows 5 habits and Premium allows 299.
Shared lists: Share a list with other people and assign tasks to them. The member count is 2 on the free plan and 29 on Premium.
