Twos
Daily lists for notes, to-dos and reminders in one app
Which one is for you
Pick Flomo if
- Fits if you jot thoughts down from WeChat and review them later
- Works for Chinese readers who want capture and review, not an all-in-one workspace
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you can't read Chinese, because the site and help centre have no English version
- Tight if you stay free: 500MB of storage, compressed images and no review tools
- Watch out: prices are in yuan, with no dollar price, and the page says they may change
- Too light for long, formatted documents, as notes are short and plain
Pick Twos if
- Fits if you want notes, to-dos and reminders in one list rather than three apps
- Works for households sharing a grocery list or a trip plan, since sharing is free
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need two-way calendar sync on Android, as that's iPhone and iPad only
- Tight if you want templates, a week view or board layouts, because those need Twos Plus
- Not for you if you chat with the AI a lot and won't pay, with 20 messages a month on free
- Watch out: prices are set by the App Store, Google Play and Stripe and vary by country, so the app may not show the US list price
- Pricey if you go lifetime, since $199 is about five years of the yearly plan
How we grade them
| 3.0GPAFlomoVery good | 3.4GPATwosVery good | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | APRO is 99 yuan a year and MAX 299 yuan, both far under the $5.99 a month the category's middle plan costs. Prices are in yuan only, and the page says they may change. | CTwos Plus is $3.33 a month billed yearly ($39.99), or $4.99 month by month. That's the ordinary band for note apps here, under the $6 middle but just outside the cheapest quarter at $2.99. Plus Lifetime at $199 is about five years of the yearly price, so it only pays off if you really stay. |
| Free plan and trial | BFree accounts get notes, multi-level tags, search and sync on every platform, with 500MB for images and files; text doesn't count. One person can live on that. | AFree has no cap a normal person would reach: unlimited things, lists and to-dos, with reminders, calendar sync, search, tags, sharing and live collaboration, with no time limit. The only meter is AI chat, at 20 messages a month. |
| Features | CCapture, tags, search and voice notes. The review tools, API and MCP connection are PRO, and notes are short and plain, with no formatting. | AIt covers the job and adds things nothing else here does: daily lists that carry unfinished to-dos forward, location-based reminders, search that reads text inside photos, live shared lists, and capture by email, text message, WhatsApp, Slack or Raycast, with a REST API and an MCP server behind it. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. Capture is quick, but the site and help centre are Chinese only, which is a hurdle for English readers. | B4.75 on the App Store, but from about 340 ratings, which isn't enough weight for our top mark. Whatever you write lands on today's list, so there's nowhere to file it first, and importers bring things over from Apple Notes, Notion, Evernote and Todoist. |
| Platforms and integrations | AWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone, Android and a browser extension, plus WeChat input, a developer API and an MCP connection for tools such as ChatGPT and Claude. | AWeb, Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, Android, a browser extension, Apple Watch and Wear OS. It connects to Google Calendar, Slack, Readwise and Zapier, and there's a REST API and an MCP server for your own automation. |
| Best for | quick short notes, especially via WeChat | one daily list for notes, to-dos and reminders |

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.
