Alternatives to 2Do
Power-user tasks with smart lists, one-time price
2Do ranks #6 of 20 in Task managers, with an Alt Score of 75. It is proprietary, sold as a one-time purchase from $9.99 one-time (iOS) and available on iOS, macOS and Android. 11 of 11 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Professionals, students, and anyone managing complex personal or work task lists, including people who follow the GTD (Getting Things Done) methodology.
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.
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.
