### 4/5 — Easy and simple

*2026-07-31, version 2.71*

Not complex, needed it for just lists.

### 4/5 — Organised now!

*2026-07-09*

Love this app ☺️
Only change I would love, is to have a full home screen size widget, so I can see all my shopping list without having to go into the app to get the whole list.

### 4/5 — Intuitive with CHOICES!

*2026-07-04, version 2.66*

This has been relatively easy to use.  It needs a tutorial for more advanced choices, but the feedback from customer service has been fast and clear.

### 4/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-03, version 2.66*

The best

### 5/5 — The Best App for Clearing Out Distractions

*2026-05-22, version 2.62*

This is by far, the best app to focus on what matters. Good job!

### 2/5 — Confusing, busy broken, unfortunately

*2026-05-22, version 2.62*

The colour picker doesn’t work, so it obnoxiously  blue widget. The interface is overly busy, with popups, layers and fuss. Which is a shame because I think the intention is good.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-15, version 2.60*

I find this app very easy to use and very visually pleasing

### 5/5 — CMF

*2026-04-12, version 2.60*

I really love this app and the customer service is Excellent and that it is a onetime purchase!!!👍🙏

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-04-02, version 2.60*

This is helpful and fun

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-03-31, version 2.60*

Super easy to use, love it

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-03-27, version 2.60*

Use it all the time, very easy to use.

### 3/5 — Wish it wasn’t $25 to upgrade but it’s good for the most part

*2026-03-25, version 2.60*

I really like this widget for its ability to be able to fit a lot of text in a medium sized widget for my home screen. That way I can see the most amount of things on my to do list all at once. I can’t justify paying $25 to upgrade to the “premium” features though, which sucks because they only give you one free font to use & it’s a very thin font. I have astigmatism & exotropia in my left eye so I would love to be able to use the bold font so it’d be easier to read. Also, you can’t make the widget transparent without paying the $25 to upgrade either. It also limits you as to how many tasks you can have & how many to do lists you can have without upgrading. All in all I could see paying $10 to upgrade but not $25. Even though it’s a one time payment — still not worth it in my eyes. Maybe if it had more features but honestly this is just a basic to do list widget.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2026-03-23, version 2.60*

I have ADHD and take medication and this app helps the ADHD managed version of me leave a tractable list for chaotic me to finish.

### 5/5 — So far I like it probably won’t purchase I’m sorry

*2026-02-28*

I like it enough that I took the time to write this review instead of updating my to do list. Am I perpetuating the cycle of distractions? Maybe. Are my  tasks laid out by the widget in a way that appeals to me? Absolutely. Is my life in order enough to make the in app purchase? Nah fam. But thanks for giving me the illusion of control- however brief it may last… <3

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! 🙌  
We’re currently offering a limited-time discounted upgrade with all premium features unlocked.  
Feel free to check it out while the offer lasts! 🚀

### 1/5 — Long time user

*2026-06-11, version 2.63*

I’ve been using this app for years and it’s great. It was free when I got it and now they are slowly choking me out to force me to pay for it. Time to go to Notes instead.

### 1/5 — bug?

*2026-06-05, version 2.62*

when you use a widget and put 5 it just shows like half of the words. wish we could get rid if the title and slide up the list evenly

### 1/5 — Glitchy…

*2026-01-21*

Hard to navigate. Can’t swipe to delete task from Mac book, does not sync with iPhone

### 1/5 — New

*2025-11-09, version 2.55*

This app is extremely confusing to use. Explanation is extremely confusing. How did the other people feel about this app or suggest me?

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2025-08-24, version 2.53*

Poor usability, poor functionality, rubbish widgets that don’t update or save the colour scheme - waste of time and you just had the cheek to stop letting me add notes so I can pay you TWENTY POUNDS… ahahahahhahahahahahhahah… losers 

I’ll build one if I need to, défaut is this level of choice? 🤦‍♂️

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-08-04, version 2.52*

Downloaded this because I need the simplest to do list, that I can tick off from my Home Screen (as widget). It definitely is that - however the issue is that they never outline anywhere what is included in the free version. So you start using it and believe that premium might just be for extra features, but then it randomly doesn’t let you add any more to-do’s out of nowhere. I wish the free plan was clearly outlined from the start so I could decide whether to keep this app or keep looking for something else. I’m sorry but I’m not paying £20 quid for an app … what happened to apps costing a few quid? Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Paywall

*2025-07-30, version 2.52*

Was good until recently it started not letting me add an item to my list (a list of 3 items) unless I pay $20, ridiculous

### 1/5 — Je souhaite un remboursement

*2025-07-17*

Bonjour, achat de l’application au prix de 22,99€, c’est un scandale compte tenu du non fonctionnement de l’application (pas possible de changer les couleurs de fonds etc). Merci de me rembourser

### 1/5 — Forced upgrade

*2025-06-13, version 2.52*

Biggest pet peeve ever! When you can’t return to a basic app unless you upgrade and pay a fee.  I should be able to decline the the upgrade and use the app as is after all that’s why I chose it.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-05-29, version 2.51*

I thought this was free but then couldn’t add any more to my to do list asked for £19.99

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — A simple app with good widget

*2026-08-30*

Simple to operate and no distractions

### 5/5 — Efficient & Helps me stay organized

*2026-08-29, version 2.74*

I’ve been using this app for a few months and I really like it. It’s a simple design and I love it as a widget so that I can get an overview of the to do’s quickly. So far I’m liking it!

### 5/5 — Had a problem and they fixed it

*2026-08-27, version 2.73*

I emailed the developer with an issue and got a response in a few hours. This is a great app and great support.

### 5/5 — Free version is good too!

*2026-07-13, version 2.69*

I’d pay for it if I had more money these days, but for now I’m happy to find an app that I can check off tasks WITHOUT OPENING THE APP. Even on my lock screen!

### 5/5 — absolutely amazing

*2026-07-07*

I absolutely love using this app to stay on top of my Todo List. It's so helpful because my days can get pretty hectic and I tend to forget things easily. By putting everything on my to-do list and receiving notifications, I never miss a task. I highly recommend this app to everyone, especially those with busy lives. It's truly a lifesaver!

### 5/5 — Perfect but one thing

*2026-06-25, version 2.64*

Everything about this app is perfect. however i wish there was a way to remove the title from the smallest widget so i can add a fifth list and have it all centered:( it bothers me way to much but other then that love it

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-06-23, version 2.64*

I love it

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-06-22, version 2.64*

App is straightforward and easy to use. To do list and other important information is right there on your cell phone. Beats searching around looking for where you placed your shopping or other paper list

### 5/5 — Simple

*2026-06-01, version 2.62*

Easy to use but they keep wanting you to purchase as usual.

### 5/5 — Excellent!!!

*2026-05-25, version 2.62*

Awesome app! Just got it and I love it. Wish it was cheaper or had a promo code.
