Todo Cloud: To-Do List & Tasks

There is a nonstop popping out of a banner “Are you enjoying Todo cloud?” That keeps popping up and wasted my screen space. That banner just wouldn’t go away. I am a paying user.

Happily used the app to all features and one day it required me to upgrade to premium before being able to access my previous tasks and calendars. Should have been more upfront about it

I was using this app happily, and then one day it stopped me from assessing my To-Do List without upgrading, meaning without paying. What a money grub app. Should have warned the users that there’s only trial period after which payment is required. Don’t scam people into using then force people to pay or stop using abruptly.

This app used to be good ten years ago, but they keep making it worse and worse to try and force people to pay for a subscription which is ridiculous. They finally crippled the app enough that I'm switching over to Microsoft To Do.

I have tried multiple times, various way, I keep receiving the monthly charge I keep trying to cancel the monthly charge, after months I finally got a response from support, regardless of that the monthly charge keeps coming. I have not use the app for many months and still getting the monthly charge after multiple attempts. When will the charge stop, I keep receiving a monthly charge for close to a year, I have not been able to stop it nor cancel the subscription and no one helps, they are stealing my money.

I was a long time premium subscriber to this app. I always liked the functionality of the app but when the developer finally rolled out the Apple Watch update almost 2 years ago I was very disappointed. The Apple Watch didn’t display any notification of the number of tasks of any sort. It just displayed dashes. Also, there was no task detail showing on the main display of the To Do cloud complication on the Apple Watch. I opened a support ticket in January of 2023 only to have the ticket close automatically with no mention of an update or a fix. That happened too many times to count and I repeatedly had to follow up and ask for the ticket to be reopened. I finally gave up and cancelled my subscription. It’s unfortunate that as a long term user supporting this app that I my many attempts at addressing the issue fell on deaf ears.

I’ve been using electronic to do lists ever since the days of the Palm Pilot. As technology has changed over the years, I’ve had to move to other platforms and other to do applications. I discovered this application about five years ago, and with only some slight customizations it totally suits my needs. Plus the ability to sync between my iPhone and iPad and desktop computer really gives me some flexibility.

Happy New Year! NOT! I was a devoted user of Appigo’s ToDo for many years. I was one of its first users and was active in its user forums providing assistance. Appigo even invited me to be a beta tester due to my helping others and sent me a t-shirt for what I had done! Over the years, the app has hit rough spots; features that didn’t work; upgrades that were glitchy; an ongoing lack of *local* synching; etc. I have weathered all of its ups and down, and stuck with it. It has many good features and was familiar to me. With some reservations given past problematic experiences with new versions, I nevertheless decided to upgrade today because the app’s Note functioning stopped working properly under iOS 11. A big mistake. This latest upgrade was a DISASTER. It’s been by far the worst experience I’ve had. 1️⃣ 1. It deleted ALL my tasks! That’s right—every single one of them gone! Years of carefully-crafted lists, contexts, repeating tasks, and key financial, medical, hobby, reading, shopping, and computer tasks decimated, vanquished, disappeared, and removed. This is incredibly bad app development. The cardinal rule is a Hippocratic one—“First, do no harm!”. 2️⃣ 2. Unlike the previous version (8.28), this one REQUIRES that you sign up for their Appigo Cloud service. You read that right! You can no longer use the app WITHOUT signing up with them for an account. That’s dismaying. But that isn’t even the worst part of this. 3️⃣ 3. WITHOUT my approval, WITHOUT my having verified my email address, and WITHOUT my having turned on synching, the app started synching the todos I had created. That’s invasive. It’s unwarranted. It’s bad form. Yet, it gets worse. 4️⃣ 4. The app does NOT have a way to turn OFF synching. It happens automatically whether you want it to or not! That means that your tasks end up on an Appigo server. Your privacy has thus been violated, and without warning. Is our personal data being mined for ads? For information? Monetized in some way? No matter. Whether it is or not, the tasks are yours and should not be transferred anywhere else WITHOUT your EXPLICIT permission! Signing up for an account is NOT the same thing as OK’ing AUTOMATIC synching and transfer of personal data to their server. 5️⃣ 5. What’s gone wrong with Appigo? Years ago, they sold off Notebook, an incredibly useful app, to a company that let it wither on the vine. Their upgrades of ToDo have historically been bug-ridden and flawed. They often drop features without warning and a

cant change icon appearance after update on ios. why?

I have used this for years and I’m a bit OCD, so it is very helpful in keeping me in task. I love it! However, the one thing that appears to have happened in an update, is you click on a task from the list to complete it, but it completes a task an item or two below the one you want to click. It’s as if the touch screen calibration is off. If I’m not paying attention, I won’t realise and that’s a little annoying if it’s not a reoccurring task. Fix that, and life is good! Thanks
