Week Plan vs WeekToDo

Week Plan

• People who plan by the week from roles and goals
• Followers of the 7 Habits approach to prioritizing
• Small teams that want shared workspaces with OKRs

WeekToDo

• People who want a simple week-at-a-glance task planner
• Privacy-minded users who want their tasks kept on their own device
• Linux, Windows and macOS users looking for a free desktop planner

Week Plan

• OKRs, calendar sync, recurring tasks, the Eisenhower Matrix, custom boards and team tools are listed only under the paid Ultimate plan.
• There is no offline mode: the FAQ says Week Plan needs an internet connection.
• Apps are listed for Windows, iOS and Android. Mac and Linux users work in the web app.
• The pricing page does not say whether the Ultimate price is per user, and the US App Store lists in-app prices of $9.99 and $103.99.

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.

Week Plan

Vision and roles

Planning starts with a long-term vision or mission statement and a set of roles, so tasks can be created for or assigned to each role.

Goals and OKRs

Objectives and key results are defined in the app and tasks are linked to them, so the week's work can be checked against longer-term goals. Ultimate only.

High Impact Tasks

The tasks that contribute most to a goal are marked as High Impact Tasks (HITs) and highlighted in the weekly plan. Included in the free Lite plan.

Eisenhower Matrix

A quadrant view sorts tasks by urgency and importance into do now, plan later, delegate or skip. Listed under the Ultimate plan.

Calendar view and time blocking

Tasks are dragged into a calendar view to block time, and Ultimate syncs with Google Calendar and Outlook so events appear in the same place.

Pomodoro timer and time tracking

A built-in Pomodoro timer runs 25-minute work cycles with 5-minute breaks and tracks the time automatically. The FAQ lists it among the Ultimate plan's features.

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.
