iPhone
A to-do list you actually finish. Just today, one thing at a time, no distractions. When the list is done, your day is done. Clock out with a clear head.
Planning feels productive. That is the problem.
Most task apps make you feel organized before they help you act. You build the system. You tag, file, prioritize, and review. For a few weeks it feels like it's finally working — then the list gets heavy again, and managing it becomes a second job.
Today List flips the script. There is no inbox to triage, no backlog to groom, no project hierarchy to maintain. Every task gets a day. Today's tasks are the only ones in your face. And when you're ready to work, the app hands you exactly one thing at a time.
CATCH EVERYTHING
Type it or say it. "Every Monday at 8, call Mom" becomes a repeating task with a reminder — dates, repeats, and alarms parsed straight out of your sentence. Getting a task out of your head takes three seconds, so nothing circles your brain at 11pm.
SURFACE TODAY
One screen shows today: your tasks, your habits with streaks, and anything that slipped. Overdue work stays visible until you deal with it — honestly, not swept into a pile. A Week view lets you drag tasks between days when plans change. That's the whole planning surface. There is nothing to maintain.
DO ONE THING
Execute mode is the part that isn't standard. It shows a single task — your current focus — and three buttons: Done, Bump, Reschedule. No list in your peripheral vision. When the context window shrinks to one thing, the mental energy it takes shrinks too. Work the queue until the board is clear.
WHAT USERS ARE SAYING
"A real game changer. So much mental free space it's unbelievable."
From people who used to spend Sundays building the perfect plan, just to watch it blow up by Tuesday.
PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
Your data never leaves your phone. No account, no server, no analytics, no ads. There is nothing to sell but the app — which is why it's a simple subscription with a free trial, and why your tasks are always yours: even if you stop subscribing, you can still see and complete everything on your list.
Same person. Different system. Different result.
SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED
Today List is free to download and includes a 7-day free trial. After the trial, a subscription is required: $3.99/month or $29.99/year. If you don't subscribe, you can still open the app and view or complete every task you've already created — creating new tasks, voice capture, the Week view, and reminders require an active subscription.
