Cinch vs GreenDay

Apple Reminders is reliable, private, and built right into your devices. For those who prefer a more visual, spacious approach, Cinch offers a calm alternative designed around intentional daily focus. Cinch is a clean, lightweight client built directly on top of your system's existing database. It brings an airy, timeline-based layout to the tools you already rely on, without forcing you to sign up for a new service or move your data. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Cinch doesn’t require an account or operate third-party servers for storing your tasks. Your reminders remain in Apple Reminders and sync through your personal iCloud account when iCloud synchronization is enabled. Changes made in Cinch remain available in Apple Reminders and through Siri. A CALM, SPACIOUS LAYOUT The interface is designed with generous spacing and simple typography to make your day easier to scan. • Visual Timelines: Your tasks are organized chronologically by day. If you need to postpone something, just drag and drop the item to a future date. • Integrated Dashboard: See your calendar events and reminders together in one place. Customize your view by pinning your most-used lists and adding a personal tagline for daily focus. PRACTICAL TOOLS • Natural Language Input: Type tasks naturally, like "Review project details every Tuesday at 10am." Cinch automatically schedules the task and keeps the title clean — no complicated menus. • Location Alerts: Receive an alert when you arrive at or leave a specific address, making location-based tasks useful at the right moment. • Simple Organization: Customize lists with color schemes and sort tasks by priority or due date. On Mac, global keyboard shortcuts let you quickly add tasks from anywhere. Enjoy the trusted, private Apple foundation you rely on every day, paired with a calm and distraction-free workspace. Note: Natural language input is currently supported in English. CINCH PRO Cinch is free to use with one custom list. Cinch Pro is an optional auto-renewing yearly subscription that unlocks unlimited custom lists, inline calendar events, labels (tags & contacts), location-based tasks, and custom theme accents. Cinch Pro supports Family Sharing. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when the purchase is confirmed. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. -- Privacy Policy: https://getcinch.app/privacy-policy/ Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Plan the work. Keep the details close. GreenDay brings tasks, calendars, and rich notes together in a focused workspace. A CLEAR PLAN FOR TODAY Use the sun button to choose what to work on. Unfinished tasks stay on Today until you complete or remove them, even when the day changes. Keep a final deadline separate, and use Upcoming to see what's approaching. LISTS FOR PROJECTS, TAGS FOR CONNECTIONS Give each task a home list. Add sublists for courses, projects, or responsibilities; a parent list brings its sublists' tasks together. Use tags to connect topics across projects. Lists and workflow statuses have distinct icons and customizable colors, and the list chooser makes nested projects easy to recognize. LISTS AND BOARDS THAT FIT THE WORK Switch between task lists and kanban boards. Compact cards keep titles and useful details visible. Organize work into statuses, and undo task completion when plans change. NOTES BESIDE EACH TASK Write Markdown, checklists, tables, and links. Add images and documents, or render inline and display LaTeX equations. Select an equation to edit its source. Open checkboxes gathers unfinished checklist items from active tasks so you can find the next small step. CALENDARS ALONGSIDE TASKS Connect calendars already configured in Apple Calendar, including iCloud and Google accounts. View events beside task deadlines in Month, Week, or Day, and link tasks to events without changing their deadlines. Calendar access is optional. YOUR WORKSPACE, WITH BUILT-IN SYNC Use GreenDay locally without an account. Create an account to import your existing tasks, notes, lists, tags, and attachments into GreenDay Cloud and sync across devices. Signing into an existing account opens its cloud workspace and replaces visible guest tasks without merging them. Changes save locally first, so you can keep working offline. GreenDay syncs changes in the background while the app is open. Existing private workspaces reopen in place after an update; older workspace folders are copied into private local storage with the originals preserved. Custom cloud-drive and shared-folder selection are no longer available. No advertising or analytics SDK is included. Account and sync data are processed by GreenDay’s service on Google Cloud; the privacy policy explains collection and deletion.
