Things 3

A productivity app that helps you to break down tasks, add notes, minor or structured tasks and continue life. The ability to simply add things that pop in your mind that you might eventually get around to do, or having a precise date, combined with a stellar leading software design can really improve your life. It can coexist with other reminders and notes applications, without feeling overbearing and obtrusive.

I absolutely loved this app but could never use it since it was impossible to upload attachments. This was the reason I moved to Todoist, which I do really enjoy, but ever year or two I come back and check to see if they’ve ever added this feature to really make this the perfect task management app but alas, still no dice..

Oh my goodness! This is so good. FINALLY I’ve found a todo/task app that fits me. Also, really interesting to say that they undersell it. There are all sorts of functions I discovered once I started using it. I work in it all the time making notes and stuff too. It really performs and it’s worth the price though I did worry it’s a big waste of money if it didn’t work for me.

Really good for organisation, but REALLY ugly widgets. Just a long list of text. Unusable.

Cannot be better. Just feel very happy with the app.

Been using this for a long time and I’m very happy with it. It’s so powerful in how flexible it can to create simple to do lists for a day or track large projects and tasks. I really prefer the upfront cost to having yet another subscription. I used to procrastinate by changing up how I organise things but this app is so flexible and powerful I couldn’t come up with a way to organise stuff for me it couldn’t do. You can setup projects and they can have tasks with checklists, tags, deadlines, reminders, notes or just a simple to do list whatever fits best.

Just started using this app again after a break of a few years . Find it invaluable as a tool for my new job as a carer. I set up my clients with the jobs I need to complete for each days visit . It means I cannot miss any of the tasks. Even have a list of the things I need to take with me . Great app and worth every penny.

I’ve been using things on my work computer for a long time and I just have no idea why I didn’t buy it earlier for my personal phone. It’s the best app for me when it comes to organising tasks and set reminders, or create more complex projects. Most to-do apps are not complex enough for me, but this app gives all the layers you need. Short and long term goals, projects and different areas in your life. Best £10 spent on an app!

I’ve been using it for a few years now and I couldn’t imagine living without it. I use Things 3 for both my personal & work tasks. The only thing I’d like to see (although, not a major issue for me), is the ability to attach files to tasks. Apart from that, it’s a perfect app and I can see myself using it for years to come.

Aug ‘24 update: I have been onboard with T3 for a few years now and just want to confirm that from my perspective cultured code are still doing the right thing really well. The comments I made originally down below still stand as solidly as they ever did. The app works very well, the updates are incremental and clearly well tested before release and the UI is still as joyful to use as ever. I just wish more developers would use Things3 as a gold standard example for how to do application design supremely well. I guess if could ask for one thing it would be under the skin e2e encryption —> Previous review: Took me a few years to eventually land on things 3 … I have not for one second looked back! One of, if not the best example of great user centric design I have ever used.. Clear, fluid, pleasantly interactive and efficient. Looks really nice as well. Also updates are not too frequent and only happen when for worthwhile improvements .. as they say “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” Maintains 5* all the way for me :). )
