About

DoneLine

Features
Read full description

DoneLine is an AI to-do list and personal project planner. Every task, project and deadline sits on one line you can actually see. A week ends. Can you say what actually moved forward, and what quietly slipped? AI DOES THE BORING PART Hand it a task that feels too big and it hands back the steps. Type "review draft tomorrow 3pm #work" and DoneLine reads the date, the time and the tag for you. Or just say it out loud and let it write the task. THE CORE IS FREE Projects, sections, subtasks, priorities, tags, due dates, reminders, repeating work, the focus timer and the Home Screen widget are all in the free plan, and so is AI. Pro raises limits later. It does not hold the basics hostage. BUILT FOR YOUR OWN PROJECTS This is not a team tool with the collaboration removed. Projects, sections and subtasks are shaped around one person planning their own work, at the size a person actually works in. NOTHING FALLS THROUGH Reminders, repeating tasks, and start-to-end ranges for the work that spans days rather than minutes. Overdue items get surfaced and rescheduled in a couple of taps, not buried. SEE WHERE THE WEEK WENT The weekly report turns finished work into a short read: what you shipped, what moved, where your effort actually landed. MADE TO LIVE IN Eight languages, VoiceOver support, larger text sizes, and a shelf of themes so it looks like something you want to open. Your list syncs across all your devices and keeps working with no connection. DONELINE PRO Unlimited projects. The free plan covers 3. 365-day modification history. The free plan keeps 7 days. Gantt timeline view. Import and export your data. More themes, including Paper. DONELINE PRO AI Everything in Pro, plus a much larger monthly AI allowance for people who lean on it every day. Pro and Pro AI are auto-renewable subscriptions, each offered monthly or yearly. Prices are shown in your local currency on the purchase screen inside the app. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. They renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can manage or cancel at any time in your App Store account settings.
