Write things down at the speed of thought. 21 million things written. Free to use, forever. Twos is the fastest, all-in-one place to get any *thing* out of your head - notes, to-dos, reminders, lists, ideas, events - and find it the moment you need it. No folders to build. No setup. Just open it and write. ONE PLACE FOR EVERYTHING: Thoughts, tasks, reminders, ideas, grocery lists, meeting notes, that 3 am thought you'll forget by morning. It all lives in one place, so nothing slips through. Most people who switch tell us Twos replaced four or five apps at once. YOUR DAY, SORTED BY ITSELF: Write something today and Twos puts it where it on your daily list. Anything you don't finish rolls over to tomorrow on its own, so nothing gets lost between days. Your Today view always shows what matters right now - nothing to maintain. FIND ANYTHING, EVEN MONTHS LATER: Everything you write becomes searchable the instant you write it. Ask Twos Chat a question, and it answers from your own things - "what was that book someone recommended?" - in seconds. The more you write down, the more Twos can do for you. USE TWOS ANYWHERE: Twos syncs across your phone, tablet, and browser instantly. It is available on your browser at WriteThingsDown.com, as a Chrome extension, a WhatsApp integration, an email integration, a text integration, and more. HOW IT COMPARES: Unlike Notion, Twos is truly built for mobile. Unlike Obsidian, there's nothing to set up. Unlike Apple Notes, the things you write become organizable pieces you can act on. Twos has the structure of a bullet journal without the blank-page overhead. WHAT PEOPLE USE TWOS FOR: · Daily to-do lists and planning · Grocery and shopping lists · Meeting notes and follow-ups · Travel and packing lists · Journaling and daily reflections · Goals and habit tracking · Brainstorming and idea capture · Coordinating with family and friends "I'm spinning a lot of plates - a full-time job, a team of 10, a home to run. It's all in Twos." — Nicola As featured in TechCrunch and The Verge. Twos is free. Everything you need costs nothing, with optional upgrades when you want them.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Use Via at 5.0 against NewTwos's 4.1. Use Via also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 61%). NewTwos's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 6 days) and ratings volume (32 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NewTwos sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Use Via sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $15.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Use Via holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NewTwos has 32 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of NewTwos's written reviews are positive against 100% of Use Via's.
NewTwos ships an update daily, Use Via every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
