Listberry vs TeuxDeux

Listberry

• People moving from a paper planner to a phone
• Day-by-day to-do lists kept beside appointments
• Users who want no account and entries kept on the device

TeuxDeux

• People who want a to-do list that works like a paper planner
• Planning day by day without alerts or notifications
• Phone-only users, since the iOS and Android apps are free

Listberry

• The free version stops at 12 tasks per day and 3 PDF exports.
• Manual reordering, night mode, weekly and monthly goals and automatic carry-over of unfinished tasks are Premium features.
• Entries stay on the device with no account, and the vendor says no data is kept in the cloud, so lists do not sync between devices.
• The App Store version is for iPhone only, and the vendor's page links to the App Store and Google Play but to no web or desktop app.

TeuxDeux

• The web app needs a subscription after the 7-day trial; without one the website reverts to read-only.
• To-dos have no alerts or reminders by design; the only notification is the optional Daily Digest email.
• An internet connection is required to use TeuxDeux.
• Shared lists are read-only for viewers, and the App Store listing is for iPhone only.

Listberry

A to-do list for each day

Tasks are written against a date on the calendar, with room to plan the days, weeks and months ahead. A setting opens the app in Month view by default.

Crossing tasks off

A finished task is crossed out by hand, as on paper, and remains on the day's list so it can still be read later.

Alerts, events and repeating tasks

Tasks can carry reminders and repeat on a schedule, and the listing says chores are told apart from events and appointments.

Bold, highlights and color grouping

Important tasks can be set in bold or marked with a highlighter color. Premium can group tasks by color in place of manual ordering.

Automatic carry-over

A Premium setting moves tasks that were not crossed off to the next day's list automatically.

PDF export

All entries can be exported as a PDF for safekeeping or printing. The free version allows 3 exports and Premium removes the limit.

TeuxDeux

A list for every day

To-dos are written on the list for a calendar day and reordered by drag and drop, in a layout meant to feel like a paper to-do list.

Automatic rollover

To-dos that are not finished today move to tomorrow's list on their own, so nothing has to be rescheduled by hand.

Recurring to-dos in plain words

Adding a phrase such as "every weekday" or "every other week" to the end of a to-do makes it repeat. Recurring to-dos can also be edited and sorted from a sidebar.

Someday lists

Undated lists for goals and bucket lists sit below the daily lists and are grouped in tabs. A someday list can be shared through a link, read-only.

Focus mode

A single-column view that shows only the current day's list, with a choice of backgrounds and a timer for a work session.

Daily Digest email

An optional email with the day's to-dos, sent at a time you choose. Replying to the email adds to-dos to that day's list.
