|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AFree on every platform under the MIT license, with no premium tier and no trial. There's simply nothing to buy. Development runs on optional donations through GitHub Sponsors. | AIt costs nothing. The whole app is free and open source under the GNU GPL 3, and the pay-what-you-can donation on the download page is optional and unlocks nothing extra. |
| Free plan and trial | AEvery feature on every platform is free, with no account needed. There's no paid plan, so there are no limits to bump into. Download it and you have the lot. | AEvery feature is free on Windows, macOS, Linux and the web, with no paid tier to bump into. You can decline the donation and still get the lot. |
| Features | ATasks with subtasks, tags, projects and repeats, shown as lists, a Kanban board or an Eisenhower Matrix. Starting a task tracks time against it, and that becomes time sheets. Add Pomodoro and Flowtime sessions, a day planner beside your calendar, and issue imports from Jira, GitHub and GitLab. | BA week of day columns with tasks under each, custom lists for things with no day, sub-tasks, Markdown descriptions, repeats on chosen weekdays and alarms. Good basics. But there's no sync, no cloud copy and no integrations, and the last release, 2.2.0, is dated February 2024. |
| Ease of use | BNo account, and your data sits on your device from the first minute. But syncing two devices means connecting Dropbox, WebDAV or SuperSync yourself, and SuperSync is labeled beta. There's no rating on record to go by, so a B. | BNo App Store rating on record, so a B is our ceiling. It's one screen, and you drag tasks between days. The snag: the download page says the app isn't code-signed, so the first launch needs a workaround. Running it in a browser skips that. |
| Platforms and integrations | AWindows, Mac, Linux, iPhone, Android and the web, with links to Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Trello, Google Calendar and Dropbox. One catch: the web app is more limited, as calendar integration and WebDAV sync are likely to fail in a browser. | BWindows, macOS, Linux and any web browser, which is broad for a desktop planner. But there's no mobile app and nothing syncs between devices. Both are on the project's roadmap. |
| Best for | free task tracking with time sheets built in | a free weekly planner kept on your own device |

Worth knowing
Super Productivity
- The web app is more limited than the desktop app: calendar integration and WebDAV sync are likely to fail in a browser because of CORS.
- SuperSync is labeled beta, and the project's wiki suggests Nextcloud, WebDAV or Dropbox for production use until it is stable.
- Fetching issues and sending work logs needs a network connection, and a failed issue update is not retried automatically.
- The project is maintained by volunteers and funded by donations; help comes from the community on GitHub and Reddit.
WeekToDo
- There is no sync between devices, no cloud copy of the data and no mobile app. Sync and a mobile version are on the project's roadmap.
- The latest release on GitHub, version 2.2.0, is dated February 2024.
- The changelog for version 2.0.0 lists a telemetry system among its additions, while the privacy statement is dated December 2020.
- The download page says the app is not code-signed, so the first launch needs a workaround.
Key features
Super Productivity
- Tasks, projects and boards
- Tasks take subtasks, notes, tags, projects and repeat rules, and can be viewed as lists, on a Kanban board, in an Eisenhower Matrix or on boards you build yourself.
- Time tracking and time sheets
- Starting a task tracks time against it. Tracked time can be turned into time sheets and work summaries for export to a company's time-tracking system.
- Focus mode and break reminders
- Focus mode offers Pomodoro, Flowtime and countdown sessions, and a break reminder tells you when it is time to step away.
- Planner and schedule
- The planner lays the day out on a schedule timeline next to calendar events, which come in through Google Calendar or any CalDAV calendar.
- Issue tracker imports
- Issues assigned to you can be imported from Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Gitea and other trackers, with time tracked per issue and work logs sent back.
- Local data and optional sync
- Data is stored on the device and no account is needed. Devices can sync through Dropbox, WebDAV or SuperSync, the project's end-to-end encrypted service that can be self-hosted.
WeekToDo
- Week calendar and task list in one
- The main screen shows the week as columns of days with each day's tasks under it, so planning and the to-do list share a single interface.
- Custom to-do lists
- Separate lists hold tasks that are not tied to a day, such as projects, and a setting controls how many list columns are shown.
- Sub-tasks and Markdown
- A task can be broken into sub-tasks, and its description supports Markdown, with links opening in the web browser.
- Recurring tasks and reminders
- Tasks can repeat, including on chosen weekdays, and a time and an alarm can be set on a task so it raises a notification.
- Drag and drop and task colors
- Tasks are moved between days and lists by dragging, and each one can be given a color from the task color picker.
- Local storage
- The privacy statement says all data is saved locally on the device and never sent to the project's server, and no personal data is collected.
