Wunderlist users who are disappointed in M$’s treatment of the app will love Zenkit To Do. There’s almost no learning curve, one-click transfer from Wunderlist, and very active development and support. Thanks to the Zenkit team for a fine product.

Thank you so much! We're so glad you found your new home with Zenkit To Do. We're still working on making improvements and adding new features, so you'll see more from us soon!After reading an online article about Zenkit To-Do, I was excited to try it as a replacement for Wunderlist. Unfortunately that was short-lived. IMO this app may hold promise - the layout looks good and the Wunderlist import was a snap but it's just not ready for prime time. Once an existing list is open, there was no obvious way to add or delete items; swiping could only prioritize an item. The three-dot menu icon results in a "Coming soon" message (?). A to-do list app just shouldn't be this awkward to navigate. Maybe after some more dev work....

Thank you so much for your feedback! We're glad to hear the Wunderlist import worked so well for you. To add items you can use the big blue + button at the bottom of the homescreen, or tap "Add task" at the top of any list. Swiping an item left allows you to star or archive it (archived items don't count towards account quotas and can be archived in bulk). The three dot icon that appears when you swipe on lists from the homescreen allows you to move to new folder, access settings and print functions, duplicate lists and more. We'd like to hear what you think after giving it another go!
Thank you Zenkit. This is a wonderful start! I really like and the functionality of the app. It is great that you can email notifications, a feature not provided by Microsoft.

Thank you so much! We're so glad you like it :) We do comments too :DI have been close to tears trying to find a replacement for Wunderlist. It seems like the majority of To Do list applications focus on sharing and ‘work’ productivity. And in this current Work From Home scenario that many are living through for COVID, one application that companies are pushing is Microsoft Teams, which is unbelievably and unnecessarily dense, but I have to deal with because of my job. But that’s WORK, so I accepted it.
But to see that the Wunderlist alternative was Microsoft To Do was almost laughable because it’s another cumbersome and clunky Microsoft tool that doesn't work well until you’ve researched and found shortcuts that can work for you. But as is almost always the case for Microsoft, a new rollout will eliminate any work arounds that the user has created.
But Wunderlist was the epitome of perfection because it was under complicated so a user can write and go, with a few extras. And THIS is an almost exact replica and just in the nick of time.
I’m testing and found that:
• importing from Wunderlist was so quick, even for tasks with attachments
• the themes have a dark mode, and for MS To Do not to have a dark background is almost criminal when battery life is precious
• I can’t seem to delete an earlier import that wasn’t complete and now I have semi duplicate
But I’m sure the developers are working on glitch fixes we speak. So THANK YOU for making a near perfect copy!
Unless you’re tied into Zenkit Base, there’s simply no need for this app. Like Wunderlist? MS bought that ages ago and pretty much replicated it in their own To Do. Get that. Same thing, far less friction. As soon as you bounce me to an external site in order to pick my plan, just to set up reminders, I’m out. There’s no paradigm shift here. It’s not pretty. It doesn’t, in and of itself, do anything new. Even as a Zenkit user it’d just be yet another one of those b-list apps you’re sort of railroaded into using. Demand better. This ain’t it.
When sending an invite I get some kind of api error
Ok checking things out and testing. I created task due today and set a reminder on my iPhone where I’m using this app, that reminder time came and went, no notification popped up on my phone? Went thru all the settings. Am I missing something here? But beautiful app just needs lots more features first. Thank
I think there is a lot of potential here but the app is a slog to use and the animations need more life; there is no easing. Make it more snappy and lively. It doesn’t excite me visually other than the nice themes.
I’m excited of the promise of integration with Zenkit and will be following to see the evolution.
I have a feeling that they bought out “wonderlist”
