Dona
Back-to-basics web to-do list with customizable lists and themes
What is Dona?
Dona is a to-do list that runs in the browser, made by a three-person team that describes it as a back-to-basics app built around a fast interface. Tasks are grouped into lists that can each have an emoji and a color, and the web app's settings cover light, dark and black themes, a compact view and keyboard shortcuts you can reassign. An account is free to create, and the site lists no paid plan.

Good for

Worth knowing
- The site links only to the web app at app.dona.ai and lists no desktop or mobile apps.
- There is no pricing page: the site says only Try for free and Sign up for free, so any limits or future paid plans are undocumented.
- The marketing site is a homepage and an about page with a footer dated 2023, and has no help center, changelog or feature documentation.
- The site and the web app's interface text mention no reminders, recurring tasks or sharing with other people.
