About

Quadrant List

Features
Read full description

Quadrant List is a four-quadrant to-do list based on the Eisenhower Matrix. Sort tasks by importance and urgency so you can focus on what really matters. • Four quadrants — Important & Urgent, Important & Not Urgent, Not Important & Urgent, Not Important & Not Urgent. Drag to move tasks between quadrants and reorder within each. Toggle tasks complete or pending with one tap. • Rich task fields — Title (required), optional details, and a quadrant. Optional reminder with once, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly recurrence. Voice alerts available so you never miss a deadline. • iCloud sync — With VIP, your tasks sync across all devices signed in with the same Apple ID. Reminders sync too: set a reminder on one device and it will fire on every device when the time comes. Data is stored in your private iCloud account and is not used for advertising. • Display options — Show or hide completed tasks; show or hide task details in the list. Keeps the main view clean while still giving you full control. • Deleted items — Soft-delete tasks and restore them later, or permanently delete when you are sure. Sort and filter the deleted list by time, status, or quadrant. • Simple and focused — No clutter. No separate account to sign up for basic use. Your data stays on your device by default. VIP (in-app purchase) removes ads, enables iCloud sync, and unlocks unlimited tasks (up to 20 tasks without VIP). Payment and subscription management are handled by Apple.
