ToDo List is a simple to-do list app that leaves out multiple lists, due dates, and sharing, letting you focus on one list on one screen, with Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets. Check your tasks at a glance on your Home Screen or Lock Screen, and manage everything in one clear list. The app works offline, needs no account or sign-up, and is useful for capturing errands, shopping items, work tasks, study notes, chores, and anything you do not want to forget. The app is built around one simple list and a clean single-screen design. No complex projects, folders, or setup. Just add a task, check it off, and keep your list organized. [Main Features] * Home Screen widget that updates in real time * Lock Screen widget to see your tasks without unlocking * Apple Watch app to view tasks, check them off, and add new ones by voice * Add tasks with just one tap * Enter tasks with the keyboard or iOS Dictation (voice input) * Color-code tasks with 6 colors by swiping right * Reorder tasks by dragging and dropping them (long-press) * Swipe left on a task to delete it * Clear all completed tasks by tapping the trash button * Mark all tasks as completed or incomplete at once * Works offline, no account required * Supports Dark Mode and VoiceOver [One List, One Screen] ToDo List is made for people who find most to-do apps too complicated, and for anyone who prefers a minimalist approach to task management. There is no support for multiple lists, projects, folders, due dates, reminders, syncing, or sharing. Everything stays in one clear list on one screen, so you can focus on what needs to be done today. If you have tried feature-heavy task managers and given up, this app takes the opposite approach: open it, write down a task, and you’re done. [Home Screen & Lock Screen Widgets] Place the widget on your Home Screen to see your list at a glance — like a sticky note that is always in view. The widget updates in real time, reflecting changes as they happen. With the Lock Screen widget, your tasks are visible whenever you pick up your iPhone—without unlocking it or opening the app. [Color-Coded Tasks] Swipe right on a task to give it one of 6 colors. Use colors to mark urgent items, separate work and personal tasks, group shopping items, or highlight what you want to do first. Colors help keep the single list easy to scan, even when it gets long. [For Everyday Life] ToDo List can be used for work tasks, school assignments, homework, shopping lists, chores, errands, personal goals, and daily routines. It also works as a simple checklist — for packing before a trip, for moving or spring cleaning, for daily habits you want to keep up, or for anything you tick off one item at a time. Because past tasks do not pile up in folders or archives, you can use it as a daily reset list: write down today’s tasks in the morning, check them off during the day, and clear the list for tomorrow. You can also use it to write down everything on your mind and clear your head, to break a big task into smaller steps, or as a second, short-term list alongside your main task manager. [Accessibility & More] The app opens straight to your list. It supports Dark Mode and VoiceOver, allowing tasks to be read aloud and managed with the screen reader. [Free to Use] ToDo List is free to download and use. It shows ads, which you can remove with a one-time purchase — there is no subscription. Download ToDo List and keep today’s tasks on one simple screen.
