Good not perfect
Still the best option
The additional reminders could be improved by being as they used to be allowing you to set a specific date and time before the due/start date rather than the current 1 day, 1 week etc.
Removed a crucial feature to the existing app
Best Todo App Upon the iOS AppStore!
Extremely buggy
Mandated sign-up to use. No thank you!
Synching our todos to your servers is privacy invading.
Requiring a subscription to use basic features is an anathema.
This app was once the best ToDo app out there. Brilliant design, convenient, easy to use, powerful.
But after years of glitches; upgrades that deleted all our todos; the dropping of the marvelous companion app Notebook (sold off to another company that abandoned it); and the failure to provide for *local* synching to our Macs, we had to abandon it and stop recommending it to others.
We would gladly have paid for new versions or pro versions with real improvements. Instead, upgrades were often retreats, steps backwards, with pay walls and hefty subscriptions.
Sad, very sad.

Noticeable Performance Improvement in 10.1.0
It’s not real time enough, however, to prevent bait-and-switch substep selection, causing you to check off the wrong project or checklist after the app takes too long to sync and update.
On the other hand, when you move through a repeating project or checklist slowly, checking off the sub tasks as you go, the app forgets about substeps after a certain period. So the next time you go through the procedure, some of the earlier steps are missing.
And when you accidentally check off a project or checklist, all of the substeps are also checked off as one would expect. As one would NOT expect, on the other hand, when you correct the error, all of the substeps are still checked off. So you heave to go through the entire project or checklist and uncheck every substep. Very time consuming.
