  • Great app !

    Only reason is not 5 is there a tick icon to select tasks and it doesn't necessarily mean done. But I use it to share a shopping list with another person and it works very well. Solid.
  • Pretty good, but could be better

    Great for one person, but I wish I could assign tasks in-app instead of having to go on the web.
  • I keep coming back

    I have tried many options, including paper. However, Remember the Milk is the one task list which keeps me coming back. Something about the initial simplicity makes me want to use it. When I find myself needing more complex functionality such as repeat task or smart lists coupled with excellent labeling, it’s there. Beyond this I love the input system. Do yourself a favor and really learn the shortcuts. You will be flying through tasks in no time.

  • Great Evernote integration / Just OK overall (for free version)

    I originally switched from another task manager because of Evernote integration. The 2-way sync with EN is super smooth.

    Just switched back to previous app because:
    With RTM, you have to pay to get reminders.
    RTM’s user interface is very clunky and inefficient.
    RTM ‘s Pro features price is way too much, and what's up with "yearly" subscription?

    There are other task manager apps with better usability for free, and there are too many apps with subscriptions now. I would not dish out more than $1.99/mon for a to-do app with mediocre user interface. I might pay $$ for apps to help me “Do” the job, but not to “Tell me” to do the job. I hope RTM will step up the overall design to be worth its Pro price or provide a more reasonable monthly plan.

  • Awesome

    I’ve tried out quite a few to do apps and this one is the best by far. A great balance between usability and advanced features.
  • No location based reminders

    Even though this app puts you through the trouble of setting up locations it doesn’t actually offer location based reminders. So this made it useless to me. Extremely disappointed this was not mentioned more clearly. I would like a refund please.

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear that the app has not been useful for you. You can monitor tasks that are nearby with a Smart List currently, if that helps at all. If you'd like more help with that and/or would like help inquiring about or requesting a refund, you can reach us through the app's Help, by email at help@rememberthemilk.com, or on our website.
  • This App helps me live each day with intention and focus!

    As a child my mom had a system of recipe cards With each task that would help her keep her house clean, written on it, and put in a recipe box. She would physically rotate each card as each task was completed. This app is that system on steroids! I love every one of its features.... it takes my scheduling and my to do list to a whole new level.

  • A longstanding standout

    My coworker has used this for almost a decade. I tried it but liked the flashier todo list apps. But one by one they went defunct or the company was bought and the app was neglected. But RTM has hung on and now I’m back and loving it. It has come a long way. I live the control and options, but also so easy to use. I especially like the natural language entry for repeats and dates because it’s easier to keep type my than click around to set dates. Thanks RTM. I’m glad to be back.

  • This is a brilliant- slick app!

    Works very well- I have this on my work pc (windows) home laptop (windows) and iPad Pro + iphone. All sync instantly ! Great reliability..... simple yet very powerful....
    Have used for a couple of years and has never let me down...cross platform heaven!!!
    Thanks
  • Great, but missing calendar view

    Switched from HiTask because I couldn’t share tasks with my employee. RTM works better. Took some time getting used to the different UI and the lack of calendar view, but I’m getting used to it. I use a lot of recurring tasks and only one instance appears at a time. Only when you complete the task the next instance will appear. That took some getting used to. Still using the free version, but may upgrade so I can use subtasks.
