Key features
Superlist
- Tasks and notes in one list

- Shared lists
- Share a list to assign tasks and work on it with others in real time. A free shared list holds up to 5 people; on Basic the limit is 25 members per list.
- Talk voice input
- Say a task aloud and Talk creates it, including a due date and subtasks. Voice input is listed under the Basic and Super plans.
- AI meeting notes

- Integrations

- Quick add and widgets
- Tasks can be added by typing, by voice or from home and lock screen widgets without opening the app.
