CouplesDo vs NellyList

CouplesDo — A shared to-do list for two Built for couples who live together. One screen, no clutter, no learning curve. Open it, see everything, act, close it. How it works One partner creates the list. The other joins with a short invite code. That's it — you're connected. No email, no passwords, no profiles. Just your first name and a shared view of everything that needs doing. One screen does it all No tabs, no menus, no buried settings. Your shared list lives on a single scrollable screen with three sections: recurring tasks, one-off to-dos, and a shopping list. Everything is visible at a glance. Claim it or leave it Tasks can be assigned to either partner or left open for whoever gets to it first. Tap to claim. Swipe to complete. A simple activity feed shows who did what — no nagging required. Recurring tasks that handle themselves Set chores to repeat weekly, biweekly, or monthly. CouplesDo tracks when each task was last completed so you always know where things stand. Designed for speed Add a task in seconds. Quick-add for shopping items. The app is built for 30-second sessions — not something you spend time "in." No ads. No subscriptions. No data selling. CouplesDo is free. That's it. Optional end-to-end encryption Protect shared lists and activity with encryption keys held on your trusted devices. Existing couples choose when to migrate. Both partners verify the encrypted content before migration completes. Invites help you find your partner; encryption keys are transferred privately through a trusted channel. Save your recovery phrase securely: losing all trusted devices and the current phrase means losing access to encrypted content. Historical server backups may retain data from before migration. iCloud calendar events remain managed separately by Apple. One shared iCloud calendar Connect an existing shared iCloud calendar or create a new one for your pair. Share it through Apple Calendar, then check access on both phones. CouplesDo uses that calendar for shared events. Calendar names and event details stay on your devices and in iCloud; only setup checks and connection status reach CouplesDo’s server. Apple controls calendar sharing; disconnecting in CouplesDo does not remove Apple Calendar access.

THE LIST YOU FINISH TOGETHER We should see all 63 national parks. Watch every Best Picture winner. Read 100 books this year. You've said it — and right now the count lives in a Note on one phone, a spreadsheet nobody opens, or someone's head. NellyList is the life-list app for the two of you: pick the pursuit, put both your names on it, and watch the count grow. NOW ON IPAD Every list, with room to breathe: your lists in a sidebar, the details right beside them. Make a list live and it stays in step across iPhone and iPad — check something off on one, see it on the other. PICK A PURSUIT AND FINISH IT All 63 national parks. 100 books this year. Every Best Picture winner. Countries visited, state parks, the breweries, the 40 restaurants you keep meaning to try. Import a ready-made list from the free List Library in one tap, or build your own. The activity feed shows who updated the list, so the count stays straight without anyone rebuilding a spreadsheet — and the leaderboard makes finishing the fun part. WHY NOT JUST A NOTE OR A PLAIN CHECKLIST A plain checklist forgets that two of you are doing this. NellyList keeps one count you can both see, on iPhone or iPad, shows who updated the list, and makes the finish worth celebrating — so nobody has to ask "wait, did we already do that one?" RANK IT AND SETTLE IT Ranked and comparison lists for the arguments worth having: the pizza places, the Bond films, the beaches. And when nobody can decide what's for dinner, spin the wheel. RUN THE WEEK TOO Live Lists are real-time to-do lists that stay in sync across your iPhones and iPads. Errands, the trip packing, the weekend, the school stuff, the chores nobody remembers. Someone adds an item from the aisle and it's on everyone else's screen straight away — no one has to agree to a "system" first. CREATE WITH NELLY Describe what you need in plain English — "packing list for three days in Lisbon with a toddler" — and Nelly builds the whole list in seconds. SPLIT A LIST INTO GROUPS One "Summer Vacation" packing list, a group for each person. Or a trip list split day by day. Each group is its own card: collapse it out of the way, tap its name to rename it, long-press to drag it into order, and spin the wheel on just that group. Checked-off items stay in their group, so everyone can see what's theirs — and when you share the list, the groups come with it. ALSO INSIDE * A free List Library of ready-made pursuits and checklists you can import in one tap * Labels to keep your own lists sorted on the My Lists screen * Reminders and recurring items for the things that come round again * Add items with Siri * Ordinary private lists too — not every list needs to be Live * Local-first: your lists live on your device and keep working with no signal WHO IT'S FOR Couples and pairs already mid-pursuit: the two of you with a parks map you're slowly filling in, a watchlist you're working through, a bucket list you've never actually written down. Families welcome too — the weekend, the trip, the packing, split by person. MADE FOR HOUSEHOLDS, NOT OFFICES No streaks. No guilt. No productivity scoring, no sprint boards, no work project management. NellyList is for personal life — the things you actually want to finish, with the people you want to finish them with. For everything you've ever said "we should do that" about: make the list, do it together, finish it.
