Overdue

Read full description

Overdue is a minimalist to-do list built around one question: When will you do it? Most to-do apps help you collect tasks. Overdue helps you decide when you will actually do them. A PLAN IS NOT A DEADLINE Every task carries two things: the day you plan to do it, and the day it is actually due. Keeping them apart is what makes a list honest. You can move a plan without pretending the deadline moved with it. ORGANIZED BY WHEN, NOT WHAT No projects, no tags, no priorities. Every task lives on a floor: Today, This Week, This Month, This Year, Someday, and Past. Swipe up and down to move between them. NOTHING QUIETLY ROTS When a plan slips, Overdue does not bury it under a red badge. It asks. Replan anything that slipped in one tap, or clear a whole backlog in about a minute. THE DAY CAN END Finish what you planned and Today says so. At the end of the week a short reflection counts what you completed, replanned and dropped. No streaks, no scores, just what happened. FEATURES • Time-based floors: Today, This Week, This Month, This Year, Someday, Past • A separate plan and deadline for every task • One-tap replan for anything that slips • Weekly reflection built from what you actually did • Recurring tasks: daily, weekly, monthly, yearly • Reminders and notifications • Important flag, notes, and location • Ten calm themes in light, dark, or automatic • Three app icons • Widgets for Home Screen, Lock Screen, and StandBy • Siri shortcuts • Fast search across everything • Import from Apple Reminders • iCloud sync across iPhone and iPad PRIVACY Your tasks stay on your device and in your iCloud account.

[[Wikilink]] autocompletion and backlinks. Search across titles and bodies. Find and replace inside a note. Nested folders and image attachments. ā–  Sync that goes nowhere else Your iPhone, iPad, and the Windows and Mac apps all see the same notes, and they travel through a CouchDB server you choose. Run your own or use a host — either works. Setup takes about five minutes from the settings screen, and your password is stored only in the iOS keychain. ā–  Sync is optional Leave it off and your notes stay on this device. No internet connection needed. ā–  Import and export Bring in a folder of .md files you already have. Or go the other way: export every note and image as a single zip.
