Things 3 Positive Reviews

Worth It (?)Things 3 is expensive. You have to pay separately (and quite a bit) for the Mac, the iPhone, and the iPad apps. But they are one-time charges (I suppose until Things 4 is dropped and you want to upgrade). Things 3 includes syncing your Apple devices in iCloud. It appears that this is through a Things (developer) iCloud account, not your personal iCloud account. That’s great but I wonder if the Things business model accounts for “lifetime” syncing for users on the Things iCloud account based on one-time payments for the apps. In the end I think it’s worth the investment. There are a lot of great features. The to-dos can be organized in two tier groupings: 1) Areas, and then within that, 2) Projects. Free-form notes can be attached to each tier and the to-dos. Due dates, reminders, and start dates (if I remember correctly) can be assigned to the to-dos. Items on your Apple calendar can be added to the Things calendar so they show up on Things app today’s to-do (and future date’s) lists. Recurring tasks can be set to recur on successive calendar intervals or a on a set interval after a given task is marked completed. (Great for things like replacing your furnace filters.) Emails (for example from the Spark email client) can be added as Things to-dos, and a link to the actual email is included so you can read the email from the Things app. The emails are dropped into a Things Inbox and then moved into the appropriate Area/Project grouping. So far I haven’t found anything missing thing that I’d like or anything that doesn’t work in a way that I think is not OK..ORTNPalmsVersion: 3.17.11

The Essential To Do AppInstead of boosting my productivity, my previous task management app had so many customization options that it actually ate away at my time. It became a procrastination tool. I could spend an hour entering dates, setting up filters, and customizing views only to realize at the end of that time that I hadn’t actually gotten anything done. In contrast, Things 3 is wonderfully simple and clarifying. It’s as powerful as my previous app, but it strips out all the distractions and the fussiness, leaving pure, easy-to-access essentials: tagging, scheduling & project organizing. The scheduling feature has been the real game changer for me. The app tracks due dates (if you have them) but—more importantly— you can also add a schedule date for each task. The interface makes it very easy to add, move, & view tasks in the schedule (while keeping due dates fixed). So you can plan your time (and easily rearrange that plan as needed). If you’re a GTD person, you can still use that methodology with Things 3 projects & tags. But I find that I do better by adding the accountability of a scheduled list of things that I want to get done on a particular day or in a particular week. Things 3 helps me organize and manage that schedule better than anything else I’ve found. And it gives me the powerhouse organization tool I need without sucking me down a rabbit hole of customization options..Jmw6838Version: 3.11

It’s worth it!I have tried numerous apps to try to stay on top of what I need to do, reoccurring tasks, upcoming events, and my accomplishments each day. I’ve used free apps, one-time fee apps, and subscription based apps. I end up either deleting them immediately, or I eventually stop using them due to how inefficient they are, or I end up with several apps to cover all my needs. I tried just using a regular physical journal, which I do recommend and I still use; but it doesn’t help me with reoccurring tasks or my incredibly long list of things I need to do for a specific category. An example would be, I have a special needs child who needs specialized schooling and assistance with every day tasks. Getting him the help he needs is covered by various government services but requires numerous steps on my part to get each need of his covered. It would require me to have a large desk planner to have something like this (which is basically a project but a one person, non paid project) planned out on a physical planner; but this app eliminates that necessity. I’m still new to this app, and I’m certain that I’m not using it to its extent, but as of now, it has been the best to-do app I’ve come across; paid or free! I have my fingers crossed that I’ll be able to delete some of my other apps and replace them with Things3!.CourtC85Version: 3.13.8

Just get it!I purchased this on my MacBook and on my iPhone. I was hesitant to purchase because I have bought countless things to help me get organized — planners, calendars, to-do lists, sticky notes, and utilized countless modalities — paper and pen, GoodNotes5, Google Keep, Google Tasks, YOU NAME IT! Nothing has really helped me, and I have probably wasted hundreds of dollars. Let me start off by saying that I am a very type A person and extremely productive, but I am also obnoxiously busy every day and have ADHD. It is hard for me to focus on what is the most important thing to do to because there’s just so much of it. I am currently a teacher, planning my wedding, I own an apartment building, and have so many other things on my plate. So, when my to-do list gets too long (AKA at about noon everyday), I become completely overwhelmed. I don’t know where to start or how to prioritize. This app is truly life changing for me. There’s no thrills and it only has what’s important. I can focus on what needs to be done without distractions. It helps me prioritize, I can schedule things out in advance, remind myself of things, organize projects, break difficult tasks into smaller steps, etc. I am SO beyond impressed with these apps and there features, and I am thrilled to have found them to start my year off right!.MissgazzVersion: 3.15.12

My Favorite App - 100% Must Have!I've never rated/reviewed an app before. However when I saw this week's upgrade, I realized I need to let others know how amazing this app truly is. I’ve been using Things 3 for 4+ years (if not longer) and it’s only gotten better over time. Initially I tried many different types of To Do apps but this one did the best at separating my Personal life from my side Business and all the projects those involve. I loved the initial “training” that walked you through how to use Things 3. This app is my life saver…I use it numerous times a day and am constantly adding new things I need to remember to do. I love that it pulls in my Apple calendar events and works with my iPad & Apple Watch. It can be as simple as you want it or as advanced. I’d say mine is pretty in-depth, I have reminders set as far out as 3 years. I work with Drs in my side business and need to keep all their Credentialing up-to-date or they won’t get paid…this app has worked perfect for that. I love how I can plan each day (personal & business all separate) keeping the most important items at the forefront. I also love that I can look to see when I last took care of something, when I started it, who I spoke with, and when I completed it…assuming you write good notes. I used to use the Tags but I’m consist in how I write my ToDo’s and keeping them with their projects, so I don’t anymore but everyone has different “needs”. Since I’m consistent, I’ve always been able to find what I’m looking for when I search. The recent addition of being able to use my Apple Pencil is exciting and I look forward to trying it out. Thank you Things 3 for creating a great app and the continued improvements!.SKJohnson99Version: 3.13.15

Great app, just one suggestionI’ve been using this app for almost three years and it’s been fantastic, but I do have a suggestion that I think will make this app even better. When you look at your list of to-do’s, the app only lists each out in a single line. This is the case for notifications as well. Sometimes when I write a to-do, it’s over a sentence long and it would be nice to read all of it in one go without having to tap on it to expand it just so I can read it all. Any to-do longer than approximately five words is cut off and an ellipses is added to the end. This is even worse when you have a deadline set because it shows that label on the far right side of the to-do, taking up that much extra space. Something as simple as allowing text to use two lines instead of one would be wonderful. Hopefully this can be changed in an update. What inspired me to write this review was how I’d be notified of a to-do and I could complete it right from that banner BUT, I’d still end up opening the app to confirm all what I wrote instead of completing the to-do right from the Notification Center. Other than all of this, it’s a great app..KrunchbarzVersion: 3.19.8

Satisfying to use! I have some ideasI love the flow of the app. It feels really good to use and I like that it isn’t overflowing with complication. One thing that I would love, which may seem a little redundant, would be to have tasks able to be locked until other specific tasks are marked off. Kind of like the checklist feature, except if it could be with other tasks from anywhere. Like having a “Long Term Goals” Area with something like “Get a job in so and so career”, but it couldn’t be marked off until you marked off “Graduate” under the “School” Area. Sure you can do that without a feature like this, and you can pretty much do that with individual Projects, but it would be cool to see that work across all your Areas and Projects, leading up to one big goal. It would be like different paths are unlocking, and I think it would be distinct enough to act different than Projects themselves. Another example would be a Project to finish reading a book, with Tasks being “Finish chapter one”, “Finish chapter two”, etc. Finishing the book would be the goal of the Project, but what if there was a “Start a book club” Project or Task that only unlocked once you marked off finishing chapter one? I think that would be exciting to open and unlock things like that..Unauthorized_userVersion: 3.21.6

A fix for what wasn’t broken; but good functionalityUpdate: I was too harsh. I do like some features of Things 3. It’s much easier to move a to do item to a future date. There are still some cosmetic options I would like—lines between items, a graying out of the background for a completed task rather than just the text, keeping the title of the task visible when selecting a new date for it. But overall I like the functionality of Things 3. My opposition to design change for the sake of design change stands. I have loved using Things 2 for years. It was the simple, elegant to do list I need. With Things 3, once an item is checked (even accidentally), it disappears—so I am scrambling to undo if I even notice that an item is gone, or at best, I don’t see what I’ve accomplished. I liked to have a blank, checked off item that I could use as a divider between sections of my to do list—no longer possible in Things 3. There are no longer lines between items, so everything appears to have melted into one giant mass of tasks. In a to do list app, I am looking for efficiency. I am not looking for change just for the sake of change and new bells and whistles. Why not just let Things 3 users select the Things 2 interface if they prefer it?.ELHH83Version: 3.19.4

Love it!I am always hesitant about paying for something without really knowing everything about it beforehand, however I am pleased with my purchase and thrilled with this App. It has all the bells and whistles without being cumbersome or overwhelming. The tutorial walked me through learning everything and if I ever need a refresher I can take the tutorial again. I have been using the free version of another to do list but it fell short. Even the paid version didn’t have the ability to make things easy to sort, manage and use. This THINGS App has well organized screen views, the ability to change a task to a project easily and I’m not quite sure how to describe it, but it just flows well and visually makes sense. I have difficulty sorting things out in my head, on paper and with other lists Apps, but the Things drag and drop feature helps to sort, manage and organize easily. The only drawback is the lack of PC usage. Sometimes it is nice to brain dump by typing with all ten digits. Hope the developers decide to add that functionality someday. Other than that, I say Bravo! I LOVE THIS APP and it has already made me more productive..North Idaho NielVersion: 3.13.16

Dream come TrueI am one of those who seldom spare time to write reviews. By the way in the 7+ years I have been an Apple products consumer, this is probably the third time at most I am writing a review for an App. I have dreamed for an app like this one many years before. I used to scan the App Store to download top rated apps, but I could never find the type of app I was looking for. They just weren’t practical. For instance sometimes you want to write down something that just popped in your head. You don’t want to worry about figuring out then if it’s a reminder or a To-do or just a note. You don’t want to worry about setting it for a specific day and a specific time. You just want to quickly jot it down in your To-dos/ reminder/ notes and be able to easily access it and take care of details later. I had given up on my hope of finding an app that would solve this type issue. So for the past few years, I had just been relying on the iOS default note app. I have been using this app now for a few months and it has everything I have ever dreamed of in a To-do/ reminder app. Honestly I am beyond satisfied. I have now found “the piece of resistance of my existence”!!.BkgadamVersion: 3.9.3

Great app. Feels like it was made by Apple.Works wonderfully. I’ve never encountered a bug in either this or the desktop app. I use them together to organize all of my college work and I don’t know how I would remember anything without them. In particular, I like how quickly new tasks can be added. On my Mac I can just press a hotkey to create a new task on the fly, from within any app. This lets me capture tasks as quickly and seamlessly as possible before I forget about them. Things has a good balance between functionality and simplicity. I’m prone to spending too much time tinkering with task tracking apps, to the point where just managing tasks becomes a task in itself. The simplicity of Things helps prevent this and thereby reduces the amount of maintenance required. The easier the system is to maintain, the more likely I am to stick to it. It takes a little reorienting to start thinking about tasks in a way that harmonizes with Things, but once you get the hang of it, it’s very powerful. It’s nice to not have anything slip through the cracks..Wonderingwhy042Version: 3.20.8

Simply perfect. Almost…I have to say that I love this app and don’t know how I’ve survived so long without it. I love the simple concept of typing up a thing you want to do, then assigning it to a day in the future so you don’t have to worry about it until then. Building out projects is a great way to keep track of things as well. I especially love the ability to integrate the Apple Calendar into the app so I can see everything at once. I do have one small gripe though. I use this app to keep track of regular monthly bills and when they are coming due. My current system is that I pay forward all the bills that are due before my next paycheck. This ensures I’m always early. However, there’s no way to mark a recurring task as complete before they populate in the Today field. This means I have to keep track of which bills I’ve paid in my head until they come due and I can check them off. It’s very annoying. Other task apps I’ve used allowed me to check them off early, so why not this one? Unfortunately, this one thing, while small, is so annoying that it affects my overall headspace, so until it’s fixed I can only give it 4 stars..NdustrialhippieVersion: 3.14.1

The best out there…I’ve tried most if not all the popular apps. This is by far the best of them. It perfectly balances simplicity with functionality and its generously sprinkled with suave style. Really. I kid you not. If I would summarize my review down to two words it would be “simple elegance”. When you condense an app down to its purest form, very few apps render down to those two words. This one does. I use this to capture tasks, everything from complex multi step projects like installing a cam in your car to keeping a running list of things I need to buy at stores like a hardware store or a grocery store. When I’m at the store I pop open the list and make sure I’m not missing anything. If you tend to get bored of todo apps easily try this one. It’s the last todo app you’ll ever need or want. The best part is, it’s not a rental so it doesn’t slowly bleed you dry every month. Oh, the devs are very responsive to your suggestions or if you have any issues. Awesome work guys. I really love this app!.SweetSolitude98Version: 3.19.7

Sadly, this won’t quite do it for meThis is a beautiful app and I love how it approaches tasks and projects which is why I give it 3 stars instead of less. But there isn’t enough functional integration with calendar to make this useful for me. I can see my calendar items but can’t open them or do anything with them which leaves me to have to jump to another app to work with meeting invites and other calendar items. This is a fatal flaw with this app for me, sadly. I’ve been on Informant Pro for years since that app integrates calendar and tasks so well. But have been trying to find something else that is more elegant and simpler. I thought this was going to be it until I discovered how severely limited it is with respect to calendar. Oh well, the search continues, and another $10 down the drain. Edit: I’ve come back again to Things 3 because it seems that I’ve become sort of hooked on how extraordinarily well it handles tasks. I’ve decided to try to live with using a separate calendar app along with Things and see how it goes. Hopefully in the future the authors will consider adding at least some ability to edit or even open calendar items in Things. Meanwhile I try this setup..JakkDiddlyVersion: 3.7.5

For now . . . This is the very best task manager for me.Things 3 beings a unique approach to task management. As I have worked with many other task managers like Todoist, MS Todo, Toodledo they bring a very straight forward list view interface. Things 3 is different. First, Things 3 allows for tasks to be created and then set aside until such time they can be worked on. This allows for less clutter or distractions. Many reviews see this as a negative with recurring tasks. Once I understood how the product works, it became clear the feature helped me declutter my active tasks. Areas are very well thought out as they play a specific role. Overall if you take your time and set up a system of Areas, Projects and Tasks, you should be able to create a working system that will guide you through your daily work. The tool is simple yet very intuitive. The tag system is one of the best I worked with. I would like to see custom filters added for more complex views. Sub tasks would be nice, but I am beginning to appreciate the reduction in clutter they create. If you use Craft, Things 3 is the only task manager it integrates with. From Craft, you can simply send tasks to Things 3. It would be great if there was a 2 way sync. The only area I would like to see improved is support. Support is slow to respond. At an investment of $50 - $80 I would have expected a higher level of support. For now . . . This is the very best task manager for me..Ultraman-cosVersion: 3.17.4

Fantastic app, fully searchable and snappy fast!GREAT APP. I’ve been using it for many years on my iPhone and Mac. It just keeps getting better and better. The thing that I like the most about this app is that you can SEARCH the entire app for key words, making it very easy to find tasks that you tucked away in projects or folders. The search function is really fast and really great! I also love that it has a LOGBOOK of all your completed tasks. This is great if you want to look back and see when you called someone or mailed something. You can also search the logbook for key words. I love it and it comes in super handy. Guys, I just looked and I have tasks going back to 2010 in my logbook. Wow, just wow. Thank you Things 3! (And by the way, it was just called Things when I created those tasks!). There is a NOTE section that you can use for every task and this is great for detailed information. This is also searchable making it easy to find that information from task that you may have completed years ago. Also, the app opens FAST, pretty much instantaneously making it easy to quickly add a task. This may seem like a no-brainer feature but sadly some apps just don’t do that! The whole app is very snappy, very quick. It’s relatively INEXPENSIVE for the iPhone and I recommend you start there to see if you like it. The Mac app is more expensive, and for my needs I don’t really need it, but it is convenient. I highly RECOMMEND this app!.Johnnyappleseed001Version: 3.13.12

Almost perfect, solid, worth the moneyI have used a lot of task management apps and I still think that many of them are great. Swipes was one of my favorites because I can snooze tasks for later, but Things has a unique approach to that same need that is actually simpler and much more effective. I’ve had to adjust some of my own habits to adapt to how Things is organized, but wow is it well thought out. It is deceptively simple at first glance, but it is so well designed that I’m constantly finding new uses and applications. My wife loves it too and she’s very picky and often doesn’t take to the things that I recommend. So the fact that both of us find it useful is a testament to the quality of the product. I’m hesitant to buy the desktop app because I think it’s fairly overpriced, I did do the free trial though and it is well-made. I was a little hesitant about the price of the mobile app as well, but after using it, I think that it is well worth the money and I wouldn’t say that about a lot of $10 apps..R33d79Version: 3.3.2

Nearly perfectI’m giving it 5 stars because it’s so functional, simple to use, and helpful. I would have liked to be able to choose a color for each category (as in todoist) because it would help me visualize my task areas more quickly. But that’s my only quibble. After experimenting with things3 and todoist I chose things3 because you can easily rearrange items within each category according to priority and identify what items in each category to make part of your today list. I use the app on my phone and find it very helpful to add items anytime they occur to me and then, over morning coffee, review the whole list (select anytime) and highlight the ones I want to do that day. I’m also very glad to have purchased this item once and for all. Todoist requires a yearly fee and I have enough of those already. I feel less overwhelmed since I bought this app. Putting tasks down in an organizable list (rather than trying to remember them) and organizing them daily really lessens stress..Paulis 101Version: 3.11.1

Ye old faithfulThings development and new feature updates has been sloooooow. This usually prompts me every year or so to want to try a new app (or dare I say the Apple reminders app). However… every single time I leave, I learn that no one knows how to make a todo list app that I can actually rely on. Most of the other todo apps get the most fundamental features wrong: The tasks are too big so I can only see a few on the same page… repeating reminders disappear (which actually costs me money because I use them for subscription and bill reminders) … no ordering by area… horrible UI decisions for creating and editing tasks … I could go on. Things does everything you expect in a todo app and it does it reliably. Yes it doesn’t have location based reminders or shared lists… and I wish it did, but I need my todo app to be an extension of my brain and not a hot mess. Through my many attempts to find the next big thing… I always comeback to Things..DotPdfVersion: 3.20.11

Anxiety reduction magic/life-changingI rarely write reviews, but wanted to say thank you to the folks who developed this app, enabling me to abandon iOS Reminders app, My giant 300 item to do list with zero organization, and it’s never ending slew of notifications that would become so overwhelming that I would just ignore them, but every morning it would remind me that I had hundreds of things to do, confirming that I sucked at life. PARAGRAPH - THINGS three is designed with efficiency and genius at almost every turn. While I may desire a couple of improvements, I have found in fully migrating to and using the app, why the developers designed things the way they did in most cases. for example, maximum one hour snooze time seemed silly to me, when I was so used to snoozing for one day on Reminders, but this actually prompts me to change the date of the thing (and to file the thing in its appropriate area, project, etc.) PARAGRAPH Or the inbox, made no sense to me at first, as it seemed like an extra today page, but it’s actually a genius solution to default throw things in until I have the time to file the thing (which is so easy and enjoyable to do). i’m not worried about missing anything now. PARAGRAPH There is one function that I consistently wish was more accessible, and that is moving an item. I wish that that was an icon next to the rest of the icons at the bottom of any Thing, rather than at the bottom of the screen. it chokes my flow every time. PARAGRAPH I also wish there was a Deadlines tab (along with today, calendar, someday, anytime…). Using a hashtag to access such an important list is just not robust enough for me to rely on/easy to forget it exists. PARAGRAPH I absolutely love and even enjoy the experience of cleaning up my Today page once a day, not just taking things off the list, but selectively adding things to the list - is a wonderful and simple functionality. The burden of my procrastination no longer feels as such, and I am absolutely more productive, and more calm, because of this app..ALIG86Version: 3.21.5

Here’s the thing…Okay, so, I am a list maker. I’ve always preferred writing lists down physically on paper. But, lately I’ve been wishing for a better way to keep track of multiple projects, areas, lists, and sublists in one spot. I googled “best to do list app” and was not disappointed. I’ve been using Todoist for a while and even paid for the subscription. It worked, but just didn’t do exactly what I wanted it to. Today, yes I am reviewing the app immediately-something I never do, I was not disappointed. In reviewing the app specifications and recognizing it as a one-time charge I downloaded it immediately. I went through the handy “Meet Things” project and was thrilled with the basics, every single question/desire that came up as I started my own lists, projects, and areas was answered and given. It is obvious that a lot of thought and effort went in to this application. I honestly am so thrilled! Thank you to the developers!.Wish Granted and Nailed ItVersion: 3.22

Gold Star AppI used Things 2 way back on OSX, and had my first experience with using a hotkey to bring up making new to-dos. Soon after I had to switch back to PC, and always missed Things. I knew it was a good app because it was the only application that tempted me to get an iPhone if I needed to upgrade. Now after many years and other to-do apps I have come back with Things, now in my pocket! I recommend this app because it hides more nuanced features under a well-designed surface. I also recommend manually using the logbook and creating to-dos to cross them off soon after. This encourages the user to not overwhelm themselves with to-dos and instead encourages organization with the areas, projects and headers design elements they’ve created in Things. I would like an option to toggle the number of to-dos listed in the inbox and today when I am on the home-screen, please. That’s about all. Thank you for the app!.HaycheckVersion: 3.22.3

AwesomeI have been searching and waiting for years for an app to come along that would finally allow a workflow that encompasses both the simple day-to-day tasks as well as complex projects. Things 3 is the best solution I have found so far. After a month of using it I have purchased and installed it for the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I open it and work with it dozens of times a day. Of course, the app is excellent for simple “To do” lists and works beautifully in a GTD workflow. The Tags functionality is very helpful with that. As a surgeon who owns and runs my practice as a small business owner, as a husband and father, as someone who enjoys traveling, and as one who volunteers in various church and community organizations, I want to thank the Things 3 team for getting this app so right! I feel so much more in control of all areas of my life because Things 3 helps me to get everythig organized — and I can even save the lists I’ve come up with and reuse them for a similar task later! The Areas feature is super helpful. I love being able to create projects and nest headlines into them. Task lists and even nested checklists within checklists for complex procedures — including parts to purchase, steps to take beforehand, and procedures that require several appointments to complete — all can be entered into Things, saved as templates, and customized for each patient. Brilliant! I plan to be a lifelong user and hope the Things team will keep this product alive and improving for decades to come!.JchddsVersion: 3.3.2

Why didn’t I find this sooner?Let me start this by saying I’m one of those people that never leave written reviews. I had to give praise where praise is due though. First of all, I am a very visual person so even if I found an app with perfect functionality, I wouldn’t use it if I didn’t like how it looked. However, this app combines functionality with a nice sleek design that’s not only easy to look at but, easy to use. I’m SUPER picky about to-Do apps and I have been on a search for “the one” for literally years. I think I’ve found it though. They allow you to customize And organize your to-do’s in a myriad of ways. For instance, my favorite thing so far is the Ability to set “Projects” and in those projects, you can not only add notes and headings to keep the todos organized but, on the main screen of the app, there’s a small circle to show your progress on the todo’s inside. I absolutely love this app and had to let y’all know you did an amazing job..Enrapture137Version: 3.8.5

By far the best tasks/reminders app, but...I feel really guilty giving this app only 2 stars, to be honest. Things 3 is clean, fast, easy to use, efficient, and quite frankly makes more sense to me than any other reminders app. The widgets are better than Apple Reminders widgets, too! However... my iPhone is not my only device, and this app is NOT worth the $80(!) it costs to get it on all my devices. $50 for the Mac app, $20 for iPad, AND $10 for the iOS/watchOS version? It feels absolutely ridiculous and greedy, considering it’s the SAME APP just blown up for different form factors. If you have an Apple Silicon Mac you’re better off just running the iPhone version of the app on your Mac. Until this is resolved, I just can’t bring myself to switch wholly from Apple Reminders to Things 3, no matter how much better the interface is - I need the ability to have everything sync across all my devices. I’m just absolutely not going to spend $80 to get that functionality..StefroweVersion: 3.13.7

Thought the app was too pricey, until I got so much stuff done.I was looking for an app that would help me stay on task with ease. I downloaded so many task apps before but I couldn’t stay on task, I’d enter my list and just didn’t complete them. Why did I took the risk of getting this expensive app?? Was I gullible ? I guess so. But something was different, I got stuff done !! everyday every week so far. What you do is type any idea that comes up. Then you move it around to whenever you want to compete it, that’s it! But why is it so expensive for such a simple task ? I gave it 5 stars because I competed every task that I’ve been listing for 1 month now. My only suggestion is how about sharing the task with other people in household? I just discovered that I can share the list by scrolling down so that it opens up a move task bar and clicking on the “. . .” . I’m very happy with this app and of course there’s always room for improvement..MommyKunVersion: 3.8.7

Easy to use and robustImpressive user experience design! Use is intuitive and the number of taps to perform an action seems fewer than the other more expensive apps I tried. You can pretty much figure out how to use it on your own, but they include a very nice tutorial in the form of a project with a list of to do’s. Very easy way to get up and running fast. It has all the features that I was looking for except for location alerts. My workaround is to create a tag for my locations and just search that tag. It would be nice to get a push notification. OTOH, it seemed like having that on for an app that I tried may have been sucking battery. I’m not sure. One slick feature is that repeating to dos have a lot of flexibility. You can even schedule them to repeat based on when you complete the task. So instead of repeating every 7 weeks, for example, the next one comes due 7 weeks after you completed the previous one. Nice..SpellriderVersion: 3.3.2

Wish there were pop-up alertsPretty good app - I'm looking for a better solution than Reminders for iPhone, as the Reminders app is buggy and sketchy performance. This app, Things, is neat and well-arranged, with nice checkboxes to clear items from your to-do list, etc. which I appreciate. However, you have to go into the app to see what's next, with no alert pop-up anywhere that I can find. I need tasks to pop up and remind me to do this or that, sometimes at a specific time, and often more than once. Like a bill I need to pay, which I may remind myself a week before but need to wait to pay it until a few days later, so I need to have a second reminder so I don't forget. Bills are just one example (still haven't found a good bill-pay app, either) - it could be a purchase I need to make but now I won't have time today after work, so I have to postpone until tomorrow after work. Or it may be a phone call I have to make at a specific time. Overall, very good for keeping track of tasks, as long as you remember to look at it..KKorwalVersion: 3.3.2

Amazing! But .. I wish I could collaborateThings is an absolutely amazing app with a beautiful interface and intuitive design. I have tried all the to do list apps on the market and this one is my best. It has just enough features without overwhelming the user with too many choices. I also love that it’s a to do list app - nothing more. That said, I would pay money to have the ability to collaborate on a to do list with one other person. I don’t need something for a team of people, but rather a way to share a Project with my partner. We are planning a wedding right now and using this app to do it. However, we both wish there was a way to work on the wedding project together aside from sending markup texts back and forth. This feature would benefit so many households without making it into some kind of project management team tool. Please find a way to make this happen!.C. E. GillisVersion: 3.17.2

😍 Only 1 Thing MissingI am smitten with this app. I used to get by with a paper planner, then switched to Todoist last year, but I hated that there was really no way to see upcoming tasks beyond a week. Things has solved that problem for me (and then some!) — no more worrying about an annual subscription, waaaay better integration with Apple Watch and my calendar (thank goodness), and a simpler, cleaner interface that allows me to organize everything from daily tasks to vacation ideas and workout plans. The price seemed a little steep at first, especially since it wasn’t easy to try out the app before I bought it, but it was worth every penny. Now, the only thing I’m missing is a way to track daily habits. I end up with a ton of to dos every day, which is a pain, because I just want a separate part of the platform that allows me to track that stuff. I’ve tried Streaks but would really like to have all these features in one place..NrohrerVersion: 3.7.3

Finally!I first used Things years ago to GTD. After I discovered Wunderlist, I switched and loved the flexibility and the plethora of features it offered. Few years ago, a tragedy took place and Wunderlist fell victim to Microsoft who bought out and stopped updating the app. It then went off to attempt its own version of Wunderlist, only to release an underdeveloped, underperforming iteration that's probably doomed for the lack of user interest. To make a long story short, I was forced to find a replacement for my beloved Wunderlist (RIP). I searched high and low only to return to Things 3. I'm happy to acknowledge that it evolved into a prince, matching and at times surpassing Wunderlist. Things 3 is more elegant and user friendly then any other app I've tried. I'm happy to be home again. My dream is for Apple to recognize the value of Things 3 and purchase it. Only then can we be assured that this magnificent product will survive indefinitely. Apple, are you listening?!.IzkatelVersion: 3.6.1

The Holy GrailI want to write a more extensive review on this but coming from someone who has literally tried ticktick todoist, notion, craft, Superlist, anydo, time tree, and many others I won’t name; this app is the holy grail. I know some of you out there may be concerned about the price and paying for the app multiple times but it’s definitely worth it if you’re like me and you have spent thousands of dollars already paying monthly subscriptions or getting weaseled into them. This app is simple. I’ll have a bunch of distractions with statistics and does not have the headache of interconnecting with Other users. That may seem like a downside, but unless you an intuitive business, the people such as your spouse that you try to connect with likely are as productive as you and what you and won’t utilize it anyways. I have to say more about this, but I gotta go for now but trust me it’s the holy Grail!.StarCruchAstroBoyVersion: 3.21.5

Can you answer the following and let us know if you are working on this to implement?Support for images in tasks really needs to be added to Things. This is a huge feature that is lacking – at the moment I link to an Evernote note, however this is not ideal, and I really wish the developers would listen to the users and add support for attachments to tasks. Whilst this would bring complications to Things Cloud (a brilliant and fast service), I think many users would be willing to pay a small yearly subscription for this feature. Windows/web support. Whilst I know that this will likely never happen, it’s worth a try as it’s quite a requested feature. Natural language input in the task line. This would make it a lot quicker to add tasks into Things. Better search. Whilst search works, well, in Things, it would be great if it was more powerful, allowing us to search for certain due dates. Filters. Being able to quickly bring up a customized view, like in Todoist, would be a amazing addition to Things. I often find myself wanting to see tasks that are due in the next 7 days with the school tag, however I cannot do this in Things. Better reminders. Currently, reminders disappear on the notification screen after a while, and do not stay there. In addition to this, location reminders would be a great addition. Markdown in task notes. Often, I want to include a little more information about a task. Things only allows you to add notes in plain text – the ability to use markdown would be great.The EngineersVersion: 3.11

Truly a great appEveryone says this app is great, and you read every review, and you’re like, "OK, how great can a task manager checklist be?" But it’s *really* great. I’ve been using this for the past week. It took me a bit to figure out how to organize my tasks and projects around it, but it’s kept me accountable, and I’ve gotten a ton done this week. My mind feels less cluttered (and paradoxically less blank?), and I feel like I go into each day knowing exactly what I need to do. The price is kind of steep across my phone, iPad, and computer (~80 bucks), but it seems genuinely worth it, and you can tell that money is going to a thoughtful and motivated crew behind this. Hats off to the developers. It’s very well thought out. One suggestion: not everything needs an AI component, and something is refreshing in that this app doesn’t. That said, I feel like AI could help, maybe a little with sanding down some rough edges— especially around, say, having ten tasks for a day and having it be able to sequence them and plot your day out. That side of things is still very manual, but it also seems like a big hill to climb for the developers. Even at a most basic level, being able to populate frequent or common tasks or be able to look at tasks holistically and do something smart with that. What, I’m not sure. But I’m also not a developer..MountaintosoundVersion: 3.20.12

Everything I need and moreAs an adult mom with ADHD I struggle to stay organized, keep track of tasks, and easily record important to-dos in an accessible location. The integration this app manages (between watch and phone) is seamless, and gives me a convenient and powerful way to keep track of many ongoing lists, routine tasks, and one-off tasks. I initially balked at the price but this app but its the best money I’ve ever spent on an organizational tool (that’s saying something considering the many bullet journals, planners, tracking systems, etc. that I’ve had false starts with). The tips and hints w/in the app are great, and the app itself does everything I could hope for. If you’re looking for motivational sayings and cute cartoons, this isn’t the app for you. If you’re looking for a way to stay on track and record things as they come to mind- and in a place that you won’t forget about- then I can’t recommend a better tool..Impressed with Free VersionVersion: 3.12.8

Still the best task managerThings is elegantly-designed. Though it IS a bit opinionated in how one should manager their tasks (Today, Upcoming), it does provide a structure for folks who need it. The ability to chunk down your multitude of tasks into what you can just do today is very helpful. I prefer flat lists, and I wish that they had the ability to negate the filters (Today, Upcoming, Anytime), but I’ll take it. DO use the free trial on the Mac app to make sure it’s for you, as thankfully all three platforms (iOS, iPadOS, and macOS) work identical, and THAT I can really appreciate. Cultured Code’s attention to detail is second to none. I only wish that the Watch app allowed me to select which filter I want to see, or perhaps only a tag instead of just Today. Minor gripe. If you want or need something a bit more powerful than Apple’s otherwise excellent Reminders, Things may is for you..BowsertuneVersion: 3.15.17

Great tool for ADHD momI’ve been using things for several months now but I’m pretty sure I’ve still only scratched the surface of what I can accomplish with it. But that’s totally OK in fact that’s a big part of what makes it awesome. I can get up and running and functioning without having to dig deep into the advanced features. I’m starting to more now and hoping to discover if there are options for shared projects and tasks with other users, which would be ideal to be able to start delegating tasks to my kids as well as letting them see what is on my plate. Time will tell if this is something I can do with this app. Most importantly though is my current experience as an ADHD single mom of two (one of whom also has ADHD). We all have apple watches which are amazing accommodations for ADHDers and Things’ integration with Apple Watch is extremely well down. I also discovered the iOS widget which has also been a game changer. It’s now the first thing I see when I get bored and swipe open my phone for no reason. This system is great if you’re a GTDer but even better because it has the flexibility to apply many of the concepts without the rigidity of a strict GTD setup. Thanks and I look forward to posting an update of how I use Things’ more advance features for an ADHD single mom of two..Rachelsue20Version: 3.13.16

Rare 5 star reviewI am very critical with apps I love and I have to say, after Daylite, Todoist, Omni focus and just about every other task manger app has been tried… I come back to Things and it’s near perfection. It looks amazing, the easy movement and ordering, the way it shows calendar events. The ease of import from reminders app. It’s nearly perfect. I am giving it a perfect score because I have learned to live without the two complaints I have for things (attachments & calendar). I understand the implementation of attachments creates a slow and cumbersome apps that would probably wreak havoc on all of the other features I love. So in the occasion I really need an attachment I will just state where it is in the task or notes, hyperlinks take no space, that pdf or image or movie would take a whole bunch. Regarding calendar, the way it shows linked calendar items in the day view is excellent, it would be amazing if we could touch that area and it had a fully functioning calendar built in, so we did not have to leave the app. But I would venture to guess after all this time there is a reason for this not being there (as then it would be things and dates 😂) but seriously would be a productivity godsend to not have to keep piping between apps for client appointments and tasks, when could be in one place. That being said, it’s still light years beyond anything else on the market for getting things done. So, is it perfect, nearly ;) Is it the best task manager available. YES! If you happen to be on a quest for the perfect Task manager …save yourself the years I’ve spent in trial and error and make things your main planner. You will be rewarded with productivity and clarity..TpromixVersion: 3.17.5

Nearly perfect iOS appI used ToDo on the iPhone with Toodledo on the web for years, and I was quite happy with it. However when I tried to update ToDo, as it was increasingly buggy, to ToDo Cloud, the install failed and I started looking around. And I am glad I did. I looked at many reviews and decided to give Things 3 a try. The tutorial is well done, and in 15 minutes I was fully up to speed. I then reentered about 100 tasks, although I could have imported them. I have to state that the interface is a joy to work with, and the final result was amazing. Read the reviews for product details, but this app defines what is great about iOS. Clean, intuitive and fun. The integration with the calendar, in particular, is brilliant. After getting it set up on the iPhone, I purchased the iPad app. Perfect integration and interface! My only quibbles... When I set an Inbox item to Today, and then I do not complete the task and clear the date, the task ends up in the Anytime folder. I think it should go back to the Inbox. This is by design, and I have a workaround, but it is mildly annoying. Also, I would like to not display the Anytime folder, as I do not need it, but this is not customizable. I could use the real estate for another area or project. But these are minor details. This is one of the best apps for iOS. Period..-jon-Version: 3.6.2

Really well doneThis app has a lot of great functionality for managing tasks and projects. The interface is super clean and efficient. The flow for bringing a task or project through inception to completion is very intuitive and works well. The only thing I would raise is the way the app assumes you are a go-getter who will knock out tasks in a proactive manner. For slackers, procrastinators, and anxiety sufferers like myself it is not very good at nagging and popping up. You have to actively pay attention to the stuff in the app. I would like to see a slider that lets you set the level of app awareness of your ability to complete tasks. So you can make it nag you more if you want it to. That way you can decide if the app is more proactive in bringing tasks in front of your eyes to make sure you don’t just set them and forget them. But I would still recommend this app all the way..Zap B.Version: 3.9.7

Great app with one layout oddityVery much enjoying the app. One design issue has repeatedly caused issues for me, though: when setting a reminder, after selecting the time, you’d think the way to save it is to hit the huge button immediately below where the time is set. Instead, that big button is to *clear* the reminder, while keeping the reminder requires you to click on a small “Done” button in the top right of the entire to-do. You’d think they’d make it quicker to save the reminder by clicking immediately below it on a big button, and make it more difficult to clear a reminder you just set with a small button at the top. Obviously a nit pick, but given how often i have to redo reminders bc of following the instinct to click on the big button just below the time setting area, it’s getting a little old..YapishkahiltVersion: 3.8.5

Game Changer for this Doctor!I have tried EVERY type of productivity managements system, paper calendars, apps, you name it! This WORKS for me!!! I am a big fan of Michael Hyatt and his Full Focus System but I needed a digital version because I am a doctor and I always have my iPad on me for patient notes. With Things, I can quickly add a reminder to follow up with a patient, make a referral, order a test, etc. I love that I can see all of my lists/projects for that day AND my calendar all in ONE screen! I use the Full Focus system by adding my quarterly and yearly goals as projects and I can reference them daily or as often as I need to in order to help plan my tasks and stay focused working towards those goals. I also have my “Morning Ritual, “Workday Startup Ritual,” etc according to the Full Focus system for quick reference to stay on task. I often make lists and then select which ones can be delegated to staff and in 2 clicks, I can send those to a staff member and take those off of my list! Yay for LESS “to-dos!!” I love that I can reorder items, move them to a different day, turn a to-do into a project, drag an email to Things to quickly reference later when I have to complete that item, get an item added directly to my list by my office manager without adding to email rat race... I can go on and on about all of the great features! The cloud updates on multiple devices is fantastic and I love that I can ask Siri to add something without even touching the app. If you are considering purchasing this app, go ahead and do it. Get the iPad and iPhone version if you have both devices. You won’t regret that purchase. Doctor’s orders. :).DrAmyVVersion: 3.8.7

MY FAVORITE THING EVERI try to be a fairly organized person. I have lots of school stuff, family work, and outside activities. With all these things I’ve had many different planning and organizing systems. Which all have failed to differing degrees. My biggest problem was the fact that I had so many ideas of what I wanted to do in the future that I needed a notes app and planning app hybrid. This is where this app comes in! I can write down the homework I need to complete, and create a new project for an idea I have and break that project down into how to get it done. My life feels so much more organized with this app! My favorite part is the one time fee. I was skeptical at first but I will never have to worry about monthly payments ever again! Also did I mention you can import your calendar! This app is amazing!.✨a woman✨Version: 3.15.16

Not a Project app- wish it had moreFor starters I’ve been combing through the internet in an effort to find a good project app that didn’t cost an arm & a leg while seamlessly integrating with iOS since it’s all my family owns. After hearing great things about Things 3 I’ve given it a shot for a few days. There are some definite upsides and things I like. Dark mode, the ability to rapidly make reminders and set to-do’s, importing from shared calendars and all that jazz. The ability to set things for “someday” or “this evening” when I’m in the middle of the day is extremely useful and takes a lot of stress out being hurried by tasks. But there’s no ability to link pictures or do sketches like in the Notes app It’s taken from what I assumed to be a project app into a simple (yet extremely effective) to do list Don’t get me wrong, if you’re looking for something to gently prod and remind you about things to do— such as to clean out the basement, or grab things before work, this is the app for you. But if you want an app that could keep track of what’s broken in the basement and needs to be replaced, or if that dryer you fixed 3 months and 4 days ago is making noises again look elsewhere. I really do hope Things 3 gets those updates soon— even a simplistic port of the sketchbook in apple Notes native app would be a game changer.ArtAddictedArchitectVersion: 3.9.6

Best productivity app I've ever usedI am a planner person, I work off lists (analog and digital) all the time and if I don't have my lists, you best believe I'm getting nothing done and feel like a lost puppy. Enter this app: Things, I just purchased it today, entered everything I needed to do (I have my wedding in 5 days!!) and I feel like I can rule the world. I WISH I looked and found this app years ago. It's very streamlined and has absolutely everything I need in terms of list-making, creating projects with notes and their own to-do lists, creating days where a task sits or deadline, repeating tasks, having tags and syncing calendars to the app. It has everything I've ever needed in a productivity app and more that I didn't know would be useful!! I LOVE THIS APP!! Low key hoping it can help me get the rest of my life together :-).DruexoVersion: 3.2

A Masterpiece of UX Design!Happened across Things in the story about featured iOS 13 apps, and so happy I did. To all the people at Cultured Code: thank you. What truly sets this task management app apart from everything else is the incredible attention paid to every aspect of the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX). Everything has a purpose, and functionality is never duplicated. Every interaction and gesture feels natural and makes sense. There is no fluff, no hidden features, or tools looking for a purpose. The iconography in the UI is just perfect, there’s never any confusion about what anything does. It just works. As an adult with ADHD running a business, keeping organized is something I’ve struggled with for years. Previous to trying Things, I was using a combination of the native iOS Calendar (synced to google calendar), Notes, Reminders, and also carried a pencil and notebook for quick notes/sketches/planning/collaboration. Things basically takes all of the useful parts of those apps and integrates them in a seamless and effortless way. I can just open it up and start throwing in tasks. I can easily drag and drop those tasks to the right category. If a task needs additional info I just tap it and start adding notes, or if it is something easily broken up into smaller chunks another tap and I can quickly add a sub-list to it. Task turned a little more complex than some notes and a list can comfortably handle? Just tap convert to project and bam now that task is a project that can hold its own tasks each with its own notes and/or lists. The best part of Things though really has to be how unobtrusive it is. Nothing ever gets in the way. It does exactly what you want it to, and makes those planning tools exceptionally easy so you’ll actually use them..Rjc34Version: 3.10

Almost perfectI have been searching for a way to combine my “getting things done” productivity world, and my “outliner world” where I plan projects. Things is the closest app I have found to bring these two worlds together in a way that is functional, beautiful and intuitive. I love the tagging, dates, inbox, and headings. The reason I wrote “Almost” perfect is that I want to be able to collapse headings, areas, and notes (under project titles). Without the ability to collapse these the work environment can get cluttered..Dean RostadVersion: 3.2.2

Fairly good but missing some featuresI have tried many task management apps, from simple checklists all the way to very complex ones, and Things3 lands in the middle. It is certainly more capable than a basic checklist, it has a number of nice features, and a nicely crafted UI/UX. It is a definite plus that the app is one-time-purchase as opposed to a subscription like so many others have become. (Some apps are worthy of being a subscription but a to-do list isn't one of them.) On the other hand it is missing some other features that are now standard in other to-do apps. It also lacks some basic features that would benefit most users and not complicate the user experience at all. Unfortunately the company behind the app is notably quiet about features it is considering, working on, or that have even been put on a ‘roadmap’. This approach is a shame when many other similar apps/services are more communicative & transparent these days. TLDR; All in all, watch the promo videos for Things3 and be aware that that is all are getting before you buy. It is pretty good but it has limitations..BeilVersion: 3.13.8

Apple Watch supportI’d really love to be able to switch between lists on my Apple Watch instead of only being able to see “Today”.ChenziiiVersion: 3.9.2

Just use Apple’s Reminders appThe layout doesn’t make sense, the Apple Watch integration is unintuitive and you have to buy the app again for an iPad or a Mac. I saw the high ratings and the description sounds good. Basically, you can add tasks to today view in the iPhone and see them in the watch, but the other tasks are not available. If you add a task from the watch, it doesn’t appear on the watch. It just feels like a poor effort. Maybe they don’t own an Apple Watch? Checking recent reviews, I see that the large number of high ratings came earlier. Then I explored Apple’s Reminderss app and found that it is quite powerful now. And everything is accessible on the Apple Watch, iPad and Mac, the way it should be. Update: I checked the Apple Watch help on the website and it just says what I already did. You only see today view, not other tasks and adding after adding a task to the watch, it disappears from the watch. With multiple taps it can be added to today and according to the dev, you can make adding to the today view a default. Anyway, the app isn’t for me and not interested in reinstalling again. Reminders does all that I need and is included for free..AceOfThumbsVersion: 3.13.11

Use this every day!Absolutely the best productivity app out there, and I’ve tried them all.. including one for ADHD with all the bells, whistles and extra stuff, and Things 3 has them all beat, hands down. I’ve been using this app for years off and on, sometimes I’ve gone overboard and used it to write lists of gratitudes, lists of what people prefer (good for birthday gifts!), lists of goals in the future (great for review later on to see what actually happened!), and then I got smarter and smarter.. used it for re-usable packing lists for small and longer trips, then used tags to help manage big projects of all sorts, setup all kinds of Area > Project > Tasks > Checklists hierarchies to help manage my life, my businesses (including processes for lines of products production), my family details including their kids, in-laws, and down to details such as their shoe sizes (because I knit socks!).. and on and on.. I’ve used for meal planning, home organization by room, managing regular contact with my fav people, and the most unique and helpful which I still use all the time but at different scale depending on what’s happening in my life — I use it by Supplier, and list what I need to get there, and create a running list of needs for the supplier so when it comes time to order, or in the case of visiting the store, I have a comprehensive list of needs already prepared and annotated. It really is brilliant. Things 3. The flexibility, smart keys, ways to move things around, hide or keep visible, tags and tools to display by tags.. so variable and easy to remember.

Using Things to implement Getting Things Done (GTD)This has been an excellent app to allow me to implement the system from the book, Getting Things Done. You can set dates on items to be done. And I also use it for daily tasks that repeat, which pop up every day automatically. But you can also set it so that it only repeats after you’ve checked it off.

Things 3 Negative Reviews

Disappointed*UPDATE #1 When adding a new to do, start with hitting “today” then add reminder and work your way up to today or this evening and you don’t have to keep going back in to add different settings! Yay! Still playing... So disappointed. I am currently using Alarmed and REALLY like it. Except for 2 things: 1. They do not update it anymore and 2. It really isn't organized. I thought Things 3 looked so very organized so thought I would make the change over. It IS organized but I would like a nag me option when I need to be reminded continually until an item is completed. It is also cumbersome to set a to do and not be able to set reminder, date, time, note, category all on same “screen”. I would really rather not see my to do until the time/alarm I set goes off. For example: If I have 5 things “to do” today but only one due at 9:00 am. I don’t want to see the badge app red number say 5 I want it to say 1 because it is only 9 am still. (I am still playing and learning. Maybe there is a better way of doing what I need?) The other items become due throughout the day at various time of alarm set...For the price I paid I’m disappointed and would liked to have had a free version 7 day trial or something. Maybe an update will include the above complaints? I am going to keep using it in hopes it grows on me. It is just so different and well you know....change isn’t easy ;) Looking forward to updating stars after I use it for a while and decide if it is worth it to buy the iPad version....Pearls77Version: 3.8.7

Falls short of implementing what it has the ability to doI have been using Things through a number of versions now and admit it has potential and power to manage projects, lists and tasks well of most any type. Where it falls short is in on how it actually works for me day by day. I find it time consuming to enter tasks compared to other task managers, often I find I need move a task to the right area to effectively be able to find it and work as a reminder that makes sense for me. If not easily visible I often forget about the task. It requires that any important task be in the Today view. Other projects or tasks are a secondary priority. Other projects or lists don’t show unless you open them. Moving between them is something I don’t find intuitive. Considering how expensive it is I find myself preferring the original Wunderlist. With Wunderlist I was able to see all lists on my Apple Watch at any time. I often work with multiple lists of equal priority and the Watch app was a dream come true. With Things you have access to the Today view only, that is all you can see or access you can do nothing more with the app without pulling out the phone or computer and spending time editing. Unfortunately Wunderlist was purchased by Microsoft and the Watch app is still in progress with their replacement so I can no longer use that feature. Siri helped but still has issues when I try to use it with Things. For me I have better success just using Fantastical and its Reminders integration instead of Things. Task managers are personal and your perception may differ..StumpapiVersion: 3.8.7

Excellent App but needs critical improvement to avoid being money sinkI would readily pay all $80 the developers want from us for this app suite! It is overall excellent and exactly what I was looking for in a to-do app. However, when I purchase a suite such as this, I assume that I will be able to use it at its current level of functionality for several years -- to put it on the same price level as $30/year subscription services like its peers. When things 3 came out, the developers dropped support for syncing in things 2! This is absolutely unacceptable as if I didn't want syncing I would not pay the extra $30 for the iPhone and iPad apps. I do not expect the developers to maintain expensive servers indefinitely, however. The developers need to add support for syncing over iCloud like most other syncing apps on the App store, or my rating will remain low as I expect upon the advent of things 4, sync support will once again be dropped. This would allow users to use the $80 software suite that they paid for for as long as they choose, and purchase the new version if they feel the features so warrant it, not because the developers feel as though it is appropriate to extort users by disrupting their use of the existing software..Big_pharrmaVersion: 3.17.1

What on earth were they thinking?This would have been a nearly perfect app for its purpose except for one colossally stupid design decision that users have been complaining about for over 4 years with no movement at all from the developers to correct the problem (and yet the geniuses at Apple made it an editors choice). For many of us our lives are filled with tasks that should be done not any further in the future than a certain number of days after the task has been completed. But most of the world tries to complete at least some of our tasks before that next date. We need tasks to repeat (for example) a certain number of days after we did the thing, not a certain number of days after the originally scheduled time. Things 3 has no way to mark such a task complete until the next time some stupid template regenerates at some future date that is no longer useful to you. And they have been told this for years with no attempt whatsoever to fix the problem. Things 3 is otherwise basically perfect but this brain dead refusal to fix the inability to handle one of the most common events in all of task management renders it completely and utterly useless in my life. But nobody has cared with regard to the numerous requests for this to be fixed that are scattered all over the Internet. What on earth were they thinking?.RockiesmithVersion: 3.12.6

Only One Day View on my Watch?!?!?I took the plunge and paid the $9.99 for this app and immediately regretted my purchase. Wanted a to-do app that would sit in my complication area of my Apple Watch that Uses Siri to enter to-do’s. Che k, it does that but.....and a big but...it sends the to-do to an “In Box” on the app on my iPhone. I did see that I change from In Box to Today but it’s not easy to switch between them on my phone as the lettering is tiny (smaller than other words and sitting just above the task-that’s too easy to tap). Then you have to go to your phone to move it to a day, and the app asks ‘are you sure you want to move this?’ Adding another few steps and time to a simple entry...that’s self defeating. Then I CANNOT see anything beyond the current day’s to-do’s on my phone....I find that very limiting. I need to be able to scroll down to at least a week’s worth of to-dos. So I can PLAN for those events before that day...not a far fetched idea. This app could be useful but at the moment( in my opinion) this app is better suited to the iPhone and NOT the Apple Watch. I wish I could get my money back on this one. Doesn’t do what I need or enough for the cost..ZeusmanVersion: 3.8.5

Horrendous!Update nov 13,22- they did it again! I’m in middle of 4 day seminar with 750 people & Things scrambles my everyday list with high priority today list even tho I had them separate. Apple why are you ignoring this? Will nake a great article or post on Twitter! Previous-Was my go to for years, however after being chastised by developer that I had “too many to do’s” (seriously?) I’ve been less than impressed. Tried others and was on the fence about switching. Wrote in recenty (1st time in almost 3 yrs) w/ quick question. Tho recd answer, suddenly whole thing not just wonky, THEY MIXED MY CAREFULLY PRIORITIZED REPEATING TASKS WITH THE ONE-OFFS!!! And do a Re-mix nightly!! No more fence. Would sue if I could. Am White House journalist, recovering from sudden death of my husband & concomitant legal/financial crises in the wake of his passing, have Post Concussion Syndrome… and these guys are purposely messing with my productivity? (Yes they knew that upfront when I’d responded to the “too many to do’s” I’d foolishly explained, hoping for cooperation since zero compassion) (As a clergyperson I know says, “don’t want to be standing with them in an electric storm.”) Very bad karma, guys Hello Tick, Tick!.Grace fullVersion: 3.16.4

ThingsCloud? No thanks...Why would you require a things cloud account to sync the watch to the iPhone. You are not entitled to my data. Looking for an alternative....SortatallishVersion: 3.12

Waste of moneyApple reminder is more powerful. Don’t waste your money. You can’t even add picture inside your notes .You can’t choose past dates for old notes. Not any location options. Apple reminder free and so many options inside..ErenamustangVersion: 3.16.4

Why do I have to paid extra for iPad?The app should support all devices.Diki2010Version: 3.21.4

IPad app is twice the priceBeware - get comfy on your iPhone, and you’ll have to pay double again for the iPad version. Slimy. There is no point to this without location triggers. Stock iOS Reminders is superior. Your cloud harvesting service is also creepy..App Enthusiast 101Version: 3.15.18

Restore this optionI used to be able to have Things open with Today. However, now it opens at the full menu list. Please restore my original option. I am unable to get it in Settings..OldDeaconVersion: 3.15.2

Not compatible with other iOS devicesI purchased the Things 3 app for iPhone after Wunderlist was discontinued and I needed a new organization and task management app. $14 for an award winning app seemed reasonable. However, they fail to tell you that this is for the iPhone app only and you would not have access to the iPad app or Mac app, which are separate purchases. It’s another $28 for the iPad app and $63 for the Mac app. So a whopping $100+ for something that most other task organization apps offer for free across all platforms. Their justification is that these apps take more time to develop... what a joke. Just because their app is more aesthetically pleasing, it does not justify needing to pay $100 to use it across all of your devices when you can easily just use a free one. I’m all for supporting developers, but this is excessive..DominikleeVersion: 3.13.9

High battery drainGood app but heavy on the battery. With just 4 minutes of screen time and 2 minutes of background Things was responsible for 35% of my battery usage. Contrast this to Chrome which was on screen for 27 minutes and in the background for 4 but only used 18%..Dcheng333Version: 3.12.8

What happened to the watch version?One day it's working wonders. Was using it for a while. Helped me stay ahead of the game. I was rocking! Next day it's gone? Please fix ASAP. The only reason I paid for this app was so I could use it on my watch. We're not allowed to use our cells on the floor. Without that functionality this app is useless to me. Developer's response: 'Hey there, sorry for any confusion! With the Things 3.10 update, we had to raise the minimum system requirements. On iPhone, we now require iOS 12 and for the watch it's watchOS 5." Umm. Yeah. That really doesn't change anything. Also didn't see anything saying the app would no longer work on my watch. Maybe I missed the memo. I'm not buying a new watch for one app. I also won't be purchasing future product from this company. Nor will I be recommending it. Far too pricey for something rendered obsolete so soon. If it was going to be this big of a change, perhaps it should have been reserved for a full new update like 'Things 4,' for example. Luckily, Fantastical appears to be a suitable replacement. It's clunkier and more cumbersome, but at least it works. I am so unimpressed right now and so glad I didn't buy the overpriced version for the Mac, which I was about to do. You just lost a sale and a potential loyal customer. Toodles..KremeschVersion: 3.10.1

Needs location supportGood but needs location support for proximity based reminders..Victoria4SVersion: 3.9.3

This App Requires Separate Purchase for iPadWhy do you sell a version for iPhone and another version for iPad. If I knew I couldn’t use my iPhone purchase on iPad I wouldn’t have wasted my money buying it at all. This looks like extortion. The compatibility section of this app says it’s compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod touch but apparently it’s not because you are offering another iPad version for purchase on all platforms. This is a scum!! Don’t waste your money buying this app because you literally have to buy it on every other platform..AwuleyVersion: 3.8.5

Ridiculous PackageThe app is very beautiful and smooth, but nothing more than a step up from Apple’s Reminder’s App. And spending over $90+ for it to be on your iPhone, iPad, and MacBook is absolutely absurd. Apple’s Reminders can sync between your products without having to drop almost a hundred from your wallet!.SoaappVersion: 3.8.2

GreedGreat app, but stands among the most ridiculously expensive of its kind. The one star is because of unhinged greed. There is no reason to pay over 10$ separately for each version (they will charge you again for things 4 and then things 5 based on their history) AND for each device. I would recommend waiting until Apple forces developers to support all platforms with one app. This is the first time I’ve ever written something bad about an app I actually enjoy and use everyday. Being a developper on the App Store does’t mean you can get away with blatantly overcharging apple customers.MH255Version: 3.6.2

Useless appHonestly, this app is very demotivating to use. Even though I paid for it, the overall appearance is poor and not visually appealing, especially when compared to the iPhone Reminders app. The notification system is ineffective, and the layout is poorly designed. Because of this, I chose not to purchase the Mac version, as I don’t want to spend more money on something with such poor design and usability. Overall, this is a very disappointing app..CStatsVersion: 3.22.4

Do not buyThis is garbage. Not able to share list with spouse and Apple does not refund money for not using it. Very dissatisfied. Its a scam!!!.Avis79Version: 3.22.4

Search needs to be overhauled! 😡Searching for anything but a single word doesn’t find it, but more importantly, it doesn’t highlight it in the title or in the notes. So if you have long notes, good luck finding your search term! Can’t search for part of a word or even two words. For example: if the todo is named “Exercise: walk, climbing” and I search for “walk climbing”, it will find NO RESULTS. This is ridiculous. Contacted support but it’s been ages without a fix over multiple versions. This worked fine previous but the last few versions have removed the normal searching and replaced it with this extremely broken version..AekorpsVersion: 3.22.4

OverhypedThis app is overhyped. I have owned and used it for years and just realized that I am adjusting my wants and desires to its limitations. Biggest issue I have seen is that this overhyped app doesn’t even send notifications (I’ve confirmed it’s all enabled) for high priority reminders. The process of creating and managing TODOs is also cumbersome Style ain’t substance and this app is overraated overhyped..MorphinedVersion: 3.21.9
