## What is Errands To?

Errands is a task manager with a pleasing design and is easy to learn and use. Crafted with a blend of basic and advanced features: Folders, Checklists, Task Images, Scheduling & Repeating, Alerts (alarms), Automatic Badge Updating, Calendar View, Mail Tasks, Multiple View Modes, Search and more!

KEY BENEFITS AND FEATURES

• The overall user interface is tastefully designed with careful attention to detail and functionality.

• A universal app with full support for the iPhone and iPad

• Supports iCloud Sync (Premium). This allows you to keep Errands in sync on multiple iOS devices (iPhone, iPad).

• Alerts (reminders) for tasks, with choice of sound and several repeat options. Plus automatic updating of the app icon badge. Both of these work even when Errands is not actively running.

• Customizable folders, so you can organize your tasks to best suit your needs (for example, Work, Home, Errands).  You can have as many folders as you wish and folder attributes (name, icon, checkbox) are fully customizable.

• A Focus Folder which is based on a "star" system. You can toggle the "star" state for any task by tapping on the star icon. When a task comes due it will be auto-starred. This makes the Focus Folder very useful for quickly glancing at what you need to do NOW. The badge icon will reflect the number of tasks in the Focus Folder, keeping you up-to-date on what tasks need attention.

• A monthly calendar view for tasks with due dates. To access it, tap on the calendar icon on the bottom toolbar. The calendar displays items based on the current folder you are in. To see all tasks, choose the calendar from the All Tasks folder.

• View options allows you to switch between normal view (4 tasks per screen) and condensed view (8 tasks per screen).

• Mail tasks (single tasks as well as entire folders).

• You can select from a built-in collection of image icons, choose a photo from your library, or take a new photo to customize your tasks.

• A unique feature allows notes to be viewed as a checklist.  This is particularly handy for small shopping lists, multi-step tasks, etc.

• Tasks can be scheduled with a due date / time.  There is a full range of repeating options.

• A convenient Recycle Bin allows you to easily create new tasks from previously completed entries.  This is a big time-saver given that many tasks are things that are done again (and again).  And saving data-bits from the virtual landfill makes you feel good!

• Tasks can be sorted by various schemes as well as arranged manually.

• Each task has a title along with separate detail and notes fields.

• Customize Errands to fit your tastes using the in-app Settings.

### 3/5 — Don’t upgrade not working

*2026-08-16, version 5.0.1*

I’ve had this app for years and it’s started playing up and locking out. So I upgraded it to premium. Got the same problem. So I deleted the app and reinstalled. Now it’s lost ALL my old data and lists!! HELP. I can’t find anywhere to report this or get any help??

### 5/5 — Simple and easy

*2026-08-13, version 5.0.1*

Simple and easy but very useful.

### 3/5 — Does NOT sync

*2026-08-11, version 5.0.1*

I love this app. I use both Alarmed and Errands apps. Alarmed app syncs just fine between
my iPhone and iPad, but the Errands app refuses to sync to my iPad and I have attempted all troubleshooting steps multiple times to no avail. I’ve given up on this app, very disappointing.

### 5/5 — Most used app

*2026-08-08, version 5.0.1*

This is a great app. I use at home and work and is perfect for staying on track.

### 1/5 — Deleted everything I had randomly

*2026-07-30, version 5.0.1*

Zero stars if it would let me rate that as stated in the title deleted everything I had randomly…….so disappointing

### 3/5 — Great App

*2026-07-26, version 5.0.1*

Very useful app with folder, prioritization, and sorting options for any type of task

### 4/5 — Very helpful app

*2026-07-26, version 5.0.1*

Find the app very easy to use and helpful. I have a TBI so memory is a problem and this app gives me simple reminders for a variety of different things. Definitely recommend it.

### 3/5 — Errand keeps ringing

*2026-07-24, version 5.0.1*

After I disable the alarm or actually check it off the list, the Erin will ring once or twice more. I really love your products but it’s been doing this for a while and there’s no other way to give Feedback

### 5/5 — Still the best

*2026-07-12, version 5.0.1*

Sure, the sync doesn’t work anymore but it remains the best simple and easy To-Do app. Have been using it for years and hope to continue using it.

### 3/5 — Functional, but why not more intervals for nagging

*2026-07-11, version 5.0.1*

I have used this app for 10 years, and for the most part, I quite like it. But why the hell aren’t there more nag intervals than every minute or every hour? There’s 58 other numbers that could be put there. Sometimes I’m busy at the moment an alert happens, and can’t accomplish the task, which leads me to either have to just let my phone continually chirp at me (annoying, also the banner blocks map instructions, which is inconvenient while driving), change the task time (annoying to do, changes for all instances of that task so I have to reset it later) or check the task off (and then I don’t actually get reminded when I am able to perform the task. Please give us the option to nag every 5 minutes and every 15 minutes so that we’re not stuck with three bad options.
