Good for

  • People who want to shape a task manager around their own workflow
  • People who struggle with procrastination or feel overwhelmed by long lists
  • Planning a day with time estimates and time blocks
  • Linux users who want a desktop app

Worth knowing

  • There is no free plan; when the 14-day trial ends, tasks cannot be added or completed until you subscribe.
  • Monthly billing is $12; the $8 price applies only when paying $96 for a year.
  • There are no dedicated iPad apps; the vendor says tablets can use the web app.
  • Time tracking needs an internet connection, and the Zapier integration can only create tasks in Marvin.
