## Where 2Do stands out

- **Reminders (time & location)** — 6 of 19 apps with a verified answer have this

## Overview

- **Who it's for**: Professionals, students, and anyone managing complex personal or work task lists, including people who follow the GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology.
- **What you get**: Projects and lists to structure tasks, plus tags and contexts (e.g. @work, @errands) for filtering. Smart Lists save custom searches across titles, notes, tags, and dates, while Focus Filter toggles between full and filtered views. Batch editing, drag-and-drop reordering, stackable reminders, and a calendar view round out the feature set.
- **How it works**: Capture tasks quickly via Quick Add, then add notes, due dates, and tags before filing them into lists or projects. Filter by tag, context, or focus rules to work through what matters now, and sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Android via Dropbox, iCloud CalDAV, Toodledo, or another CalDAV server.
