“I asked it to send me several (3-5 per day) friendly nudges if it sees some due tasks in my Todoist. And it costed me almost $20 in less than a week.”
“• Todoist free tier caps you at 5 active projects, and the in-app calendar view is Pro-only, but the actual Google Calendar sync itself seems to work fine on free”
“I use ToDoIst daily, I am a super manual user, tracking projects and tasks, no automation, no plug-ins yada yada. I have never really checked *how* much I use it until today.”
“Is anyone else currently experiencing a slowdown inside of Todoist on Windows when checking off tasks? When I go to check off a task or even click on a task, it takes a good 5 to 10 seconds before it checks off and clears from my screen. It happens in both the browser and the desktop app.”
“This Shortcut allows you to add tasks direct to Todoist using the QuickAdd API functionality and also add task comments at the same time, unlike the Global Quick Add windows in the applications. You can read about the QuickAdd API here:”
“why does Todoist hate comments? OK, so the subject is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but seriously....why are comments treated as second-class task metadata?”
“For me, the Zoom integration, openings/proposals, and Todoist integration are big parts of why Fantastical is worthwhile that won’t be part of the macOS update. But YMMV if those aren’t critical for you.”
“Claude has a connector with todoist that you can activate and then you tell claude about your schedule, projects, to-do lists, etc. and it sets up all the entries for you. Way easier to write in natural language and have it format everything than doing it myself.”
“You could write yourself a github action that send's an email to the todoist email address once a pull request/issue is created. Probably not the prettiest option out there but at least it works”
“Two workarounds people seem to use: put the task board on something that does have a connector (Linear is the common one in these templates), or let the bot drive Todoist through the browser on its own computer - you hand it a logged-in session once and it clicks around.”
“I like Todoist better. I'm going to try the free version now at work and see how it goes, might try the same at home. I'm on the legacy pro plan which is a pretty good deal at $36/year, so hard to say goodbye to that.”
“i don’t want to talk badly of the app especially on the dedicated sub, but the value just didn’t seem right to me at such a high price ? there’s categorization on todoist which might be nice for some people but i just made my own templates on notes for what is P1, grocery lists, check lists, etc.”
“If I had all Apple devices, I would go with Things 3 but otherwise Todoist is amazing too. Once in a while you may encounter a server problem but it’s rare”
“Drifted to Microsoft To do for a long time (never all that successfully) but came back when I realized that Todoist has a great MCP and plugs right into my AI tooling. and I love it. agents manage a big chunk of my tasks now and it works well.”
“It's so easy, and I think that's the main thing. It's just so easy to make tasks, and I don't have to click 300 buttons in an app just to make a thing to do for tomorrow. I just do it, it's so quick, and it works.”
“Paying how much they want for pro (which is very bloated with AI too) for a calendar.... you do you, but, if I wasn't on Pro Legacy, I wouldn't be even considering ToDoIst.”
“I love the simplicity of it. Not too many complicated features and themes. But from what I have seen on this subreddit, apple users don't tend to like todoist.”
“Hi - I'm debating signing up for Todoist. I was scrolling through this reddit to see what people generally think of it, and I am noticing a lot of posts of people complaining it's down.”
“Yes Notion has the ability to use Tasks and Notes altogether but for some reason I still prefer to use Todoist as my todo app because it's much easier and simpler to use. Also I've tested Evernote and Evernote is also possible to have Notes and To Do lists but the Notes app, the Notes part, is very easy to use.”
“If you could combine the best features from apps like OmniFocus, Todoist, TickTick, Things, or others into one perfect GTD app, what would it look like?”
