Simply Things is a minimal todo list for people who want to capture tasks quickly, stay focused, and keep daily planning light. No project-management noise. No crowded dashboards. Just a clean place for the Things you need to do, with the Apple-platform details you expect. WHAT MAKES IT SIMPLE - Fast capture for tasks the moment they come to mind - A focused list that keeps today's work readable - Pin important Things so they stay at the top - Reorder and rename Things as your day changes - Widgets that show your pinned Thing and the rest of your list - iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac - Keyboard shortcuts for fast iPad and Mac workflows BUILT FOR FEWER DISTRACTIONS Simply Things is designed to stay out of the way. It gives you enough structure to keep your tasks clear without turning your personal todo list into another system to manage. If you like low-clutter planning, quick capture, and a task manager that feels native on Apple devices, Simply Things is built for you. EARLY BIRD ACCESS Simply Things is still growing. A subscription tier is planned for later, and current Early Bird users keep access to future Simply Things features. Have feedback or a feature request? I read every message: hello@simplythings.app
