The Stack vs Do3

The Stack is a different take on To-Do List management. It favours simplicity, and encourages easy capture of your thoughts ("notes to self") as you have them. It uses a single list of simple text-based notes, organised using #hashtags.

TOO MUCH TO DO? START WITH THREE. When everything feels urgent, a giant to-do list just makes it worse. Do3 quiets the noise by showing you only three tasks at a time. Finish your three, then choose: do three more, or call it a good day. That's the whole idea. Small rounds instead of one endless list. Momentum instead of overwhelm. HOW IT WORKS Do3 reveals one task at a time, so you're never staring at everything at once. Do it and tick it off, or skip it if now isn't the moment. You get a daily skip allowance, so you can nudge past the odd task without dodging your whole day. Clear your three and you get a quick well done, then it's your call: another round, or stop for the day. You're finished when you decide you are. FOR BUSY BRAINS If you have ADHD, a head full of open tabs, or simply too much on, Do3 is built for you. No guilt-trip lists, no wall of red. Just the next three things, one at a time, so starting feels possible again. BRING YOUR TASKS WITH YOU Already using something else? Switching is easy: • Import from other to-do apps with a CSV file • Import straight from Apple Reminders, it copies them across and leaves Reminders untouched • Export any time, free, as a CSV or a full backup, so your tasks are never locked in EVERYTHING ELSE YOU NEED • Quick add that understands you: type "pay rent tomorrow 2pm high priority" and Do3 fills in the date, time and priority • Brain Dump to empty your head fast, then sort later • Focus tags like Quick wins, Deep work and Low energy, to match tasks to the energy you have • Time blocks and a Calendar to shape your day without rigid scheduling • Repeating tasks with real control: daily, weekly, monthly, "the last Friday", or repeat until done • An All Tasks view with search, filters and sorting whenever you want the bigger picture • Apple Watch app and Home Screen widgets that show your current round • A Deleted list and an Undo, so nothing vanishes by accident WORKS EVERYWHERE, PRIVATELY Do3 syncs across your iPhone, iPad and Mac through your own iCloud, automatically. No account to create, no password to remember. There's no server, no tracking and no analytics, so your tasks stay yours. Nobody, including us, can see your list. SIMPLE PRICING Use Do3 free for your first 7 days. After that, a one-time purchase unlocks it for good, with no subscription, ever. One purchase covers your iPhone, iPad and Mac. And exporting your tasks is always free, so you are never locked in. Start with three. See how much lighter that feels.
