|---|---|---|
| Value for money | APremium is $19.99 a year, or $2.99 monthly, and a lifetime purchase is $39.99. All three undercut the usual to-do subscription. It buys cloud sync and backup, shared tasks, the AI assistant and the OCR scanner. | BPremium is $29.99 a year, or $3.99 a month, which is on the cheap side of typical. But what it adds is mostly basics, such as task groups, repeating reminders and import and export. There's still no cloud sync at any price. |
| Free plan and trial | AUnlimited tasks, sub-tasks, notes, checklists, calendar events, reminders and repeating tasks, free and with no ads. Plenty of people could stop there. What you don't get is sync, so each device keeps its own list. | BUnlimited tasks and notes with priorities, statuses, colours and reminders, and no account. But repeating reminders and task groups are Premium, and you get just 3 templates and 1 colour theme. |
| Features | ATasks with sub-steps, reminders, repeats, categories and tags. A notes editor, checklists you can drag into order, and a calendar in day, week and month views. Five widgets and a fingerprint or face lock too. Premium adds sharing and an AI assistant. | BEach task takes a priority from Urgent to Low and a status like To Do, In Progress or Done, and you can group, sort and drag by them. Templates cover routines and packing lists. The gap is sync. Sharing only works between devices on the same network. |
| Ease of use | BWe have no App Store rating on record, so a B is as high as we go. No account is needed to start, and it works with no connection at all. Sign-in only comes up if you want cloud backup or sharing. | BWe have no App Store rating on record, so a B is as high as we go.

Worth knowing
My Tasks
- Cloud backup and sync, shared tasks, the AI assistant, the OCR scanner and drawing notes are premium features.
- Without premium each device keeps its own separate list; syncing a phone and a tablet, or Android and iPhone, needs the premium cloud backup.
- It is available for Android 8.0 and up and for iPhone and iPad only, with no web or desktop app.
- Prices here are from the US App Store; Google Play shows a different in-app range of $0.99 to $33.99 per item without labels.
Planndu
- Repeating reminders, task groups, local sharing, import and export, extra themes and all but 3 templates need Premium.
- There is no cloud sync: sharing works only between devices on the same network, and deleting the app removes its data unless it was exported.
- It runs on iPhone, iPad and Android only. The site says a desktop version for Linux and Mac is in the works.
- Google Play shows in-app purchases from $2.49 to $29.99 per item, so the monthly price on Android may differ from the $3.99 listed on the site.
