Taco vs Ping

Taco is a focused task manager built around weekly planning and priorities — not endless lists. Instead of overwhelming you with everything at once, Taco helps you decide what matters this week with a simple P1/P2/P3 priority system. One task per priority level. That's it. Focus on what's important. Weekly Planning Plan your week with intention. Assign tasks to this week or next, set a weekly objective, and switch between Planning and Focus modes to see your work the way you need to. P1 / P2 / P3 Priorities Pick your top 3 tasks for the week. P1 is your current focus, P2 is up next, P3 is after that. When you finish P1, everything cascades up automatically. Projects Organize tasks into projects. Share projects with teammates and collaborate in real time. Set project schedules to show or hide projects based on the day and time. Goals & Reflections Track yearly goals with progress indicators. Add reflections to look back on what you've accomplished. Quick Add Capture tasks fast with the quick-add bar. Add multiple tasks at once without leaving your flow. Customization Choose from built-in color themes or create your own. Switch between light and dark mode. Adjust corner radius to match your style. GitHub Integration Link repositories to projects and connect pull requests to tasks for a seamless developer workflow. Privacy First Your task content is encrypted. Passwordless login via email OTP or Google Sign-In. No passwords to remember or leak.

Ping is the reminder app for things you actually have to do. Other reminder apps notify you once, you swipe it away, and the task dies in a graveyard of dismissed notifications. Ping doesn't work that way. When something is due, Ping pings you, and keeps pinging on your schedule until you mark it done. There is no dismiss. Only Done. JUST SAY IT Type or dictate a reminder the way you'd say it to a person: "remind me at ten to take my meds", "laundry tomorrow", "trash every monday at 8pm". Ping understands plain language and fills in the what, the when, and the repeat. ON-DEVICE APPLE INTELLIGENCE Ping uses Apple's on-device models to understand messy, human phrasing: spelling mistakes, changes of mind mid-sentence, pasted appointment texts. When something sounds important, like medication, Ping suggests pinging more often. All of it happens on your iPhone. Nothing is ever sent anywhere. RELENTLESS, ON YOUR TERMS You choose how often Ping re-pings (every 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) and when it's allowed to give up, or set it to never give up. A live countdown shows the next ping. Repeating tasks roll forward when you complete them. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No server. No analytics. No tracking. Your reminders live in a local database on your device and die there when you delete them. Ping is for medication, deadlines, dishes, laundry, calls you keep postponing, and everything else you've ever swiped away and forgotten. Stop dismissing. Start doing.
