But what that comes bugs, inconsistencies and frustrations. TickTick suffered from the opposite problem – It was more of a “new kid on the block”, and had developed a very attractive offering in a relatively short space of time. If it doesn’t have what you want now, look elsewhere. Whilst there is no doubt the app is very well made, I wouldn’t bank on new features coming thick and fast. People were very tired of waiting for Todoist to be developed and updated – The company had teased various new features earlier in the year (like kanban boards), and had released nothing since then. The overall feeling I got from the various online communities were…. Everyone uses these apps in a different way, and it’s a case of weighing up the compromises, to see which ones you can live with (or can’t live without). I did far more research than I needed to do for this, but the ultimate conclusion was…. Things 3 is very aesthetically pleasing and feels extremely Apple when it comes to the navigation – Although it’s significantly better than any native Apple app I’ve used.īut recently, my wife has started a new business, and I thought it was a good time to at least try and make ourselves a little more productive and in sync when it comes to some of the tasks we need to do (we already use a shared calendar for most things).īecause of that, Things 3 was out of the question (no collaboration), and after a few days of research, it came down to TickTick and Todoist. I typically haven’t needed any sort of collaboration, which is why I’ve been using Things 3 from Cultured Code for the past year or so. I’m an Apple house – Everything is Apple, including my wife’s stuff. I’d no doubt have accomplished a lot more.īut there you are, it’s all a process and I thought I’d jot down a few of my observations on these two extremely popular task managers. In fact, I’m slightly embarrassed to admit that if I’d spent as much time being productive, rather than looking for ways to be productive…. I don't know much about the completion sound but I did like the tactile feel of Todoist more.I have spent the best part of 4 years looking for the perfect to do app/ task manager for myself. I liked how you can change the section that a task is under through NLP. Once you learn it, it was so much easier to edit the scheduling of a task on the go. The pomodoro timer of TickTick has become my favorite pomodoro timer and the habits feature are also not that bad.Īs for the positive of Todoist, I agree on the better Windows app and natural language processing. I don't mind the extra features that much. Small features that I put TickTick above Todoist for me are the proper checklists, the stacking of overdue repeating tasks, and the ability to see visually which dates the task will recur. I only use it when I want to set a reminder or date milestone. I don't even use the subtasks feature that much because I change and manipulate them a lot. Plus I find that it helps a lot to adapt the TickTick to the way I work and interpret my tasks and mini-projects. I write on my tasks a lot because it helps me think. I found that the centrality of the description/notes section in TickTick is vital to my workflow. What do you think about these two apps? Which one do you find better? In the end, I like both of these apps and I haven't decided yet. But I am a student so I might go with the Todoist premium. If I would like to spend no money I would still go with the TickTick because Todoist free version is very limited. I was satisfied with the TickTick free version but I found that with the Todoist premium I am able to be more productive (I feel like that) and I also need a good desktop app and Todoist desktop app is by far better than TickTick's. I think that TickTick has more to offer in the free version and also in the premium version. If you want to describe task you have to write comment Only one calendar view (but you can sync with G calendar, so it is not so bad) Satisfying complete sound (although you can not change it) Two way synchronization with Google calendarĭesktop app looks very good and is easy to use NLP (for example p2 for setting priority) Fairy simple and consistent UI which focuses on tasks
