Alternatives to Any.do
Tasks, calendar and grocery lists with reminders
Any.do ranks #4 of 20 in Task managers, with an Alt Score of 79. It is proprietary, freemium from $4.99/month and available on Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Web and Browser extension. 11 of 11 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Individuals, families, and small teams who want to manage tasks, calendar events, and daily plans in one app rather than juggling separate to-do and calendar tools.
A unified task list with subtasks, color tags, and voice/natural-language entry; a calendar that syncs with Google Calendar, iCloud, and Outlook; a daily planner (My Day) that surfaces today's tasks and events; and time-based, location-based, or recurring reminders. Team plans add shared boards, task assignment, in-task chat, and kanban/table views. It also connects to thousands of other apps (Slack, Gmail, Zapier, Asana, Jira, WhatsApp) for automation.
Users add tasks and events (typed, spoken, or via integrations), organize them into lists or boards, and set reminders or due dates. Each day, My Day pulls together the relevant tasks and calendar events to plan around, and everything syncs automatically across phone, tablet, watch, and web.
