Great App!!

Do Next is simple & easy to use, yet very effective way to organize your “To Do’s”. Thank you!

Works great

Simple app but works great. The only thing I could suggest is ability to do individual notification on occasional tasks. But otherwise it’s perfect.

The app I felt like I needed to make

This is, hands-down, the best to-do app I have ever used. Totally customizable, simple and elegant, no fluff, all content, and makes planning your day a joy. My biggest complaint about every to-do app is that they all have so much bloat and no easy way to learn them, this gives you every tool you will need in the tutorial list and takes 2 minutes to learn. Purchased immediately and I wish I could hug the developer.

What a cool app

Simple todo list with a unique and intuitive interface.

Love how you can easily move tasks between lists and how tapping on a list title brings you into a focus mode for just that list. I also love the quick entry from the app icon (which you'd be surprised few productivity apps offer).

I was looking for a simple todo list that lets you enter tasks quickly and easily and Do Next fills that need amazingly.

I haven't checked out the widgets yet but they look pretty cool too.

I have a few wishes that I'll share … 🙏

* More light color themes — I.e., soothing pastels — green, orange, yellow, purple, etc.
* More than 10 list limit. Why not unlimited?
* Automatically move a completed to do to a list of your choice (or archive out of view)
* Apple Watch app with complication — how cool that would be.
* Mac App
* Few app icon choices with additional pleasing color combos

Thanks for listening and for creating such a cool and useful app.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Those are great suggestions, and I will consider incorporating some of them in future releases. The 10 list limit is really just to encourage people to keep things simple. If you have a newer Mac with Apple silicon, you can run the iPad app on Mac. It isn’t as good as a native app, but it works.

Nice & Quick

Great for entering to-do's quickly and easily. Sure, l have my big fancy task manager for projects. But for a quick job they can be cumbersome. This is perfect.
