To Do Machine vs Trayzero

The only productivity app designed just for you. Most to-do apps make you bend to their rules. To Do Machine flips the workshop on its head — open the back panel, swap the parts, paint it your color. Talk to it in plain English and watch your task inbox, your projects, and your entire workflow rebuild themselves in real time. Built natively for Mac and iOS. Perfectly in sync. — WHO IT'S FOR — For the people who've tried every to-do app and bounced off them all. For the ones who keep building systems in Notion, then abandoning them. For anyone whose brain works a specific way and is tired of apps that don't. To Do Machine isn't another opinionated workflow. It's a workshop where you build the one that fits you. — DESIGN IT YOURSELF — Tell To Do Machine what you want and it remakes the app around you. "Make the inbox darker and put due dates on the right" — done. Switch any project to list, kanban, calendar, focus, or blueprint view. Invent your own statuses, fields, and automations, project by project. Every tweak syncs to all your devices instantly. — AI THAT DOES THE ORGAINZING — Just say what's on your mind. To Do Machine writes the tasks, breaks them into projects, sets reminders, and finds time on your calendar — no tapping the + button (if you don't want to). "Plan my Q3" → full project with milestones, weekly check-ins, and time blocks. Auto-triage your inbox: priority, due dates, parent project. Orgainize your tasks in bulk: "Complete all of my overdue tasks and let's start fresh." — CALENDAR IN, DAY OUT — Connect Apple or Google Calendar and your tasks thread themselves between your meetings. Two-way sync with Apple or Google Calendar. Time-blocking that respects your meetings, focus blocks, and breaks. Move a meeting and your tasks move with it. — INSTANTLY SYNCED BETWEEN iOS AND MAC — Tasks, projects, and calendars sync in milliseconds. Custom layouts and themes travel with you. Redesign your inbox on Mac at lunch — it's waiting on your iPhone by the time you stand up. — FREE TRIAL AND PRICING — -A free personalized assessment and recommendation of one of nine proven productivity systems. -Start your free 7-day trial (available with an annual subscription) to unlock full usage of To Do Machine, including task management and system customization. After your trial, task management and system customization is only available on a paid plan. -Pricing starts at $23.99 for three months. -Auto-renewal can be cancelled at any time via Apple subscription settings.

Get your in-tray to zero with Trayzero, a private, offline task manager built around the Getting Things Done (GTD) method. Capture loose thoughts, turn them into clear next actions, and choose what to do next. Your tasks, notes and attachments are stored on your device. No Trayzero account is required. Every feature is available without a purchase, and there are no ads. Capture what is on your mind Add tasks from anywhere in the app, share text and links into your inbox, or use the Home Screen widget. Dictate a thought with your device's speech recognizer, and attach photos or voice memos. Clarify your inbox Process Inbox guides you through each item: Is it actionable? Can you do it in two minutes? Is it a next action, a project, something to delegate, or something for later? Empty your inbox by deciding what each item means. Organize your commitments Keep Next Actions, Projects, Waiting For, Someday/Maybe, Calendar and Reference in dedicated lists. Give projects an outcome and see which ones need a next action. Use contexts, tags and Areas of Responsibility to organize work and life. Choose the next action Filter actions by context, available time and energy. Build a daily plan and find work that fits the moment, whether you have five minutes at home or an hour at your computer. Keep your system current A guided Weekly Review helps you capture loose ends, clear your inbox, and review actions, waiting items, projects, your calendar and Someday/Maybe. Save your progress and continue later. Remember what matters Set due dates, deferred actions, waiting-for follow-ups and repeating tasks. Reminder notifications offer actions such as Done and Snooze. Optional system-calendar integration works with the calendar you choose. Notification delivery depends on your device permissions and settings. Bring your tasks with you Import supported exports from Todoist, TickTick, Nirvana, Google Tasks, Things 3 and OmniFocus, or paste a plain-text list. On iPhone and iPad, import selected Apple Reminders lists, or connect to Microsoft To Do for a one-time import. Preview before importing and undo an import if needed. Export formats and supported fields vary by source. Own your backups Export and restore portable JSON backups, including attachments. Enable automatic backups to a folder you choose. Backups are unencrypted; if you choose a cloud-synced folder, its provider handles synchronization. Trayzero does not provide cross-device task sync. Privacy with clear choices Your task content is not sent to a Trayzero server. Optional Microsoft imports, system-calendar integration, speech recognition and shared backups use the services you choose. Store builds use RevenueCat for anonymous purchase checks and purchase/customer analytics; your tasks are not included. See the privacy policy for details. Free and open source Light and dark themes, adjustable appearance, and accessibility support are included. Optional tips and a supporter subscription help the independent developer; they do not unlock features. Explore the source at github.com/roman10/trayzero.
