Smartlist is a task app designed to answer one simple question. What should I do next. Instead of showing you every task you have ever entered, Smartlist filters and prioritizes so you only see the tasks you can actually act on right now. It uses time, location, and priority to keep your list focused and useful throughout the day. Smartlist is built for people who juggle a lot. Client work, internal projects, family, errands, and the “I really cannot drop this” items that keep slipping through the cracks. You finish one task, open Smartlist, and you have a clear next step. KEY IDEAS One focused Smartlist See a single prioritized list of tasks that you can work on now. As you complete items, the next most important tasks rise to the top so you keep moving without re-sorting or rethinking your whole day. Do On vs Due By Some tasks only happen at a specific time, like a flight or an appointment. Others can be done any time before a deadline, like a report or planning a trip. Smartlist separates “Do On” from “Due By” so fixed events only show up when they are relevant and flexible tasks can appear early enough for you to make progress. Dynamic priority A task that is due in two weeks should not feel urgent today, but it also should not sneak up on you the night before. With dynamic priority, you can have a task start low and automatically climb in urgency as the due date approaches. This helps you spread work out instead of firefighting at the last minute. Location based tasks At home, you do not need to see your office backlog. At the office, you do not need your yard work and home repairs. Smartlist lets you tie tasks to locations, such as home, work, or specific stores, so your list only shows what is possible where you are. Templates and repeatable lists Create reusable templates for things like trip prep, project kickoffs, or recurring checklists. Drop them into your Smartlist when needed so you do not rebuild the same set of tasks from scratch. Designed for clarity, not AI Smartlist does not guess what matters. You stay in control of your priorities and due dates. The app handles the filtering and ordering so you can move faster with less noise. FREE AND PRO Smartlist includes a free tier that lets you try the core workflow with a limited number of tasks and a shorter planning horizon. Upgrading to Pro unlocks full functionality, including dynamic priority, location based tasks, and larger lists, so you can manage work and life in one place. Whether you are managing projects, running a small business, or just trying to keep home and work under control, Smartlist helps you work with intention and always know what to do next.
