Best for daily to-dos and routines with friends cheering
todo mate is a to-do list from South Korea with a social streak. You tick off tasks and routines, time them, jot a line in a diary, and your friends can cheer you on with stickers. It's free with ads on phone, watch, Mac and the web. Premium is cheap at $7.49 a year, but the store listings don't say what it adds, so we can't tell you if it's worth it.
Who todo mate is for
- Great if you want tasks, routines and a diary in one app
- A treat if you and your friends like cheering each other's finished tasks
- Handy when you want to record how long each task takes with a built-in timer
Who todo mate is not for
- Skip it if adverts bug you, as both store listings flag advertising in the free app
- Not for you if a social feed in your to-do list sounds like noise, as follows, stickers and crew chats are part of it
- Too light for work projects, as it's built around daily lists, routines and a diary
Why todo mate gets a 3.2
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- BValue for moneyPremium is $1.99 a month or $7.49 a year on the US App Store, far under what to-do apps usually charge. So why not an A? The store listings don't say what premium adds to the free app, and there's no pricing page. Eight more purchases are named only by a number, at $0.99 to $8.99.
- BFree plan and trialFree to download with lists, tasks, routines, the timer, the diary, reminders and the friend feed, with ads. That looks like plenty. But neither store listing says where the free version stops, so we can't promise you'd never hit a wall.
- BFeaturesColour-coded lists that carry over to a calendar, routines on a weekly, monthly or custom cycle, a timer that saves the time spent to each task, and a daily diary. Friends can react to what you finish. Solid, and a bit different. It's built around daily lists and routines, though, not projects.
- AEase of use4.8 from about 1,500 App Store ratings. A lock screen widget lists your to-dos and marks one done with a tap, so you don't even need to open the app.
- BPlatforms and integrationsiPhone, Android, a Mac app and a web app, plus Apple Watch and Wear OS. That covers a lot. But no integrations are on record, and the listings mention PC use without naming a Windows download.
