Tasks is a flexible task manager built for Apple devices. Start with a simple to-do list, then add structure only when you need it—with projects, subtasks, tags, priorities, custom statuses, Kanban boards, collaboration, and powerful automations. Your work is rarely just “to do” or “done.” A task might be in progress, waiting, under review, or following a workflow unique to your team. Tasks lets you shape every project around the way you actually work, without overwhelming you upfront. START SIMPLE. GROW YOUR WAY. • Capture tasks quickly and organise them into folders, projects, and subtasks • Add tags, priorities, task types, notes, links, images, PDFs, and other details • Create custom statuses for any workflow • Use fixed or completion-based recurring reminders • Build Smart Lists with powerful filters across all your projects • Find tasks, comments, and project information with advanced search • Start faster with project templates and helpful tag and date suggestions SEE WORK MOVE FORWARD Turn any project into a clear visual workflow with Kanban. Move tasks between custom statuses, or let completing a task advance it naturally through your flow. From a personal checklist to a multi-stage project, you can always see what is happening and what comes next. AUTOMATE ALMOST ANYTHING With more than 50 App Intents, Tasks works deeply with Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and system automations. Create, edit, clone, search, and organise tasks and projects without opening the app. Build workflows around dates, recurring rules, locations, tags, priorities, statuses, comments, and collaborators. COLLABORATE WITHOUT THE OVERHEAD Share projects by email or public link, assign work, add comments, and keep files with the tasks they belong to. Only the person sharing a project needs Tasks Plus—collaborators can join without purchasing their own subscription.

You have a system, a folder of markdown files, structured the way you think, sitting in cloud storage where you can see it. It works right up until you stand up from the desk. Evenmark is a markdown editor for iPhone and iPad that opens the folder your notes are already in and lets you view and write in the files directly. That's the whole idea. No import. No new system to move into. Point it at the folder in your cloud storage where your notes live. The vault you've built is the vault you get, on the sofa, on the train, in the queue — wherever you happened to think of the thing. NOTHING GETS LOCKED IN, BECAUSE NOTHING GOES IN Every notes app you've tried wanted to own the notes. Its own format, its own storage, its own export button you'd go hunting for in three years when you'd finally had enough of it. Evenmark writes plain .md files into your own folder. Open them in Obsidian on your desktop, open them in Notepad, open them in whatever you're using in ten years. Delete Evenmark tomorrow and every word is exactly where you left it. There's nothing to get out, because nothing ever went in. SETUP IS ONE SCREEN Sign in to your cloud storage, choose the folder your notes live in, and that folder is your vault. Tree on the left, note on the right. On iPhone the note gets the whole screen and the tree is one tap away. WRITE. IT SAVES ITSELF. Live markdown styling as you type, so a heading looks like a heading while you're writing it. Evenmark saves a moment after you stop, and again when you close the note. There's no save button because you shouldn't have to think about it. JOINED-UP NOTES, NOT A PILE OF THEM Link notes inline. Connect to links already in your files. Change a file name and the links update with it, so tidying your folders never breaks anything. The links panel shows you what a note points at and what points back at it, which is usually where you find the thing you forgot you'd written. FOR THE NOTES THAT AREN'T DOCUMENTS Some things aren't a page. Quotes you're collecting, ideas you're keeping, anything that's really a handful of small entries with the same few fields. A gallery base is one file that shows up as a grid of cards. Add a property once and every card has it. Underneath it's still ordinary markdown, still one file, still readable anywhere. THE TRAIN, THE PLANE, THE DEAD PATCH Notes you've opened are on the device. Write with no signal and your edits are held safely until you're back online. When you reconnect, files are sent with a check against the version you started from. So returning to a connection never quietly overwrites something.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Evenmark at none against Tasks's 12. Tasks's advantage is device support (5 vs 2) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
