### 5/5 — 종착지인가

*2026-09-22*

저도 에버노트, 원노트, 노션, 옵시디언, ticktick, 업노트 다 거쳐서 정착한 앱입니다. 구조화하고 정리하지 않아도 쓰기가 너무 편해서 꾸준히 써보려고요

### 5/5 — I’ll miss you

*2026-06-26*

I have used the app for a year. My child remedies recipe, gift ideas, rennovation plans, grocery lists, everyday to-dos, all was there. I loved that I could customize it any way I wanted to. So, needless to say, one day when I could no longer open the app (the login was rerouting constantly, and I kept being referred to NewTwos), I had to take a few deep breaths and accept all my notes are gone. I installed NewTwos but as I suspected, nothing was migrated. I tried the new thing, but it is too sleek and light for me, practically a new app.
 I will miss the old Twos, with all its bugs and glitches.

**Developer response:** Thank you, Jelena ❤️. Yes, we try to provide a tool that provides value. We aren’t trying to distract or take up unnecessary mindshare. We love to hear you’re getting value and enjoying our gamification and pricing. We try to be fun and accessible. Always here to help and thank you again for your kind review. We appreciate you. Happy Twosday ✌️❤️ - Parker

### 5/5 — Very good for daily jotting

*2026-05-23, version 3.869*

This app is great for jotting down all the random things that happen in a day and even praying through them. It organizes everything by date so they're easily retrievable later.

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2026-05-13*

I love this app so much!!! My life is way better now that I have a base to live out of. I still use my calendar app but this syncs with it and is so LOVELY to use! I am serious about organizing and have used and tried many more than I’ve included in this review. I can only summarize by saying this is the best.  

I think because it is the best of many worlds. You can just throw things into it as you’re living and then when you get a minute you can transform these random things to do, notes, reminders, thoughts, projects, etc. 

I’m only frustrated I didn’t know about it earlier. Using it actually feels like playing ❤️

◯ No, kanban board or pomodoro timer

Other apps comparison for Decision making
	
Todoist has a LOT more integrations for everything, so more exposure for data risk

Things is not cross platform but super simple and straightforward

Taskade up can’t just add a task without a project and I’m just one person. I would assign a task to myself but still couldn’t always see it right away in my tasks

Lunatask I don’t remember but not smooth￼￼

◯ Taskade no Apple calendar integration would have to go through story bloom calendar sync… maybe ok?

Things 3 not cross platform… and no custom recurrence

Tick tick unsure about country of ownership and privacy risks

Anytype no calendar view or overall task list, great privacy not easy to search overall

Bydesign - not a lot of custom recurrence but you can drag and drop tasks onto the Callender on that day only 
Also, No projects, and you can’t drag and drop sub tasks

Who has projects?
Taskade
Todoist
By design called pages

Subtasks:
Taskade indent
Todoist drag nice but only in one view 
By design can’t do on app
Things can’t figure it out with drag


Easy to search:
Todoist
Bydesign can’t find

Drag and drop on calendar to Reschedule:
Todoist good 
Taskade?

Select multiple tasks:
Todoist good
Taskade?
Tick tick no

Easy to add tasks:
Tick tick
Todoist
Taskade needs a project first…

Apple calendar integration:
Tick tick
Things?
Floret
Any.do
Not Todoist
Not Taskade
Not Bydesign

Structured feels too structured for me but might help others.  have to put in a time and duration for every task. Maybe that’s ok but I’m usually in a hurry

Might like flower floret better It’s cute, but it doesn’t delete or even gray out completed, old tasks, so I’ll never get a blank slate

Any.do dated, and not smooth   

Minimalist has no calendar view but beautiful and can be absolutely private with the right settings

By design felt glitchy

Ample notes I can’t figure out subtasks even though awesome vault and end to end encryption, but can’t search encrypted notes and ultimately couldn’t find them at all

2do not being developed

Todoist can’t sync with Apple calendar but very polished if you want to sync to a Google calendar first. Also not as private 

Ample note not sure it syncs with Apple calendar

### 5/5 — Best app for the ADHD brain

*2025-09-21*

I have tried SO MANY different ways to deal with “to-dos” and reminders as an adult with severe ADHD. None of them really worked well for me. I either lost them, forget to write in them, forgot to look at them, or got so bogged down trying to use them I gave up. No longer! This app seems to just work with the way my brain works. It’s organized, but you can SEE nearly everything at once. It can automatically toss tasks into “today” based on date or repeating reminders. You can make lists, add notes, paste URLS, add photos. It is officially your external brain. 

My favorite feature though is how many (FREE!) ways there are to add info. You can email text, or use Siri Shortcuts. I’m constantly telling Siri to add things, sending texts, or forwarding work emails to Twos. I forget nothing now! It’s incredible. I offload my brain to twos, and the world smiles.

**Developer response:** Thank you, EmuSel :). We’re so happy to hear Twos is fitting your brain, helping you remember *things* and stay organized. It means so much to us to hear testimonials like this. We’re still just getting started and please let us know if there is ever anything we can do to help. Happy Twosday ✌️❤️ - Parker

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2025-08-20, version 3.857*

What a wonderfully developed and integrated app. This is the first app that I have found that is so intuitive. Love, all the current features, especially the AI support. I can finally use just one app to do everything from making lists, to setting reminders, adding calendar events, journaling, etc. I can’t wait to tell my patients who have ADHD and anxiety about this app. A great app for moms also to keep everything in one place.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.2 — 2026-09-25

What's new?
- Fixed email and phone number in edit profile view

### 4.1 — 2026-09-25

What's new?
- Fix hiding AI elements when they are turned off

### 4.0 — 2026-09-24

Twos is all new.

We rebuilt Twos from the ground up, and it is now the same app on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and the web. If you used NewTwos, this is it, now simply called Twos.

You are still signed in, everything you wrote is here, and if you have Twos Plus, it came with you.

What's new:
• A faster app, rebuilt from scratch
• Richer things: bold, italics, headings, code and longer notes
• Reminders that repeat, follow your location and sync with your calendar
• Unfinished to-dos carry over to today on their own
• New home screen widgets
• Siri: say "Save this to Twos" to keep what is on screen, ask "What's on my Twos today", or ask Twos Chat anything
• Save what you read: Instapaper joins Readwise, Kindle, Apple Books and the rest
• More room on iPad, and a layout that follows a folding screen
• Choose what goes in your nav bar and side menu

A few things work differently:
• Carry-over no longer asks first. You can turn it off in Settings.
• Checkboxes are square. Circles are one setting away.
• Widgets need iOS 17. If a widget looks blank, remove it and add it again.
• Siri shortcuts made with the old app need to be rebuilt with the new actions.
