TOIDO

Your to-do list should be the answer to a question. When everything feels urgent and nothing moves forward, it's usually because your tasks have drifted away from why they exist. TOIDO is a to-do app that starts with the question. You frame the real issues as questions, hang tasks beneath them, and focus on the few questions that actually change things. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT β€’ Start with the question Write issues as questions ("How do we…?", "Is it true that…?") and give each one a working hypothesis. Tasks become the moves that test that hypothesis β€” not a pile of disconnected chores. β€’ Prioritize by impact, not urgency Rank issues by leverage β€” how much changes once the question is answered. Pick one or two questions to own this week and go deep. β€’ GO β€” today's moves first Launch straight into your open to-dos, paired with the questions they serve. Today's moves sit on top, ordered by impact. β€’ Answer the question When the work is done, turn your hypothesis into a conclusion and close the question for good. Answered questions stay, with their answers. β€’ Inbox β€” capture without sorting Dump any thought straight into the Inbox. Later, ask "what's the question?" and connect it to an issue β€” or let it go, guilt-free. β€’ Weekly review Clear floating tasks, revisit your questions, choose next week's focus. Anything you drop is logged and can come back anytime. β€’ iCloud sync Your issues and tasks stay in sync across iPhone and Mac on the same Apple ID. β€’ English & Japanese. Light & dark. Sidebar and keyboard shortcuts on Mac. You do the thinking. TOIDO just hands you the structure β€” and the question.

About

MinDrop

Features
Read full description

MinDrop is a board of sticky notes for everything you need to remember. Write it down in a second, find it later, and get a nudge when it matters. It's free, with no ads. MinDrop is in early access, so sign-ups are by invite for now. You can request one from the sign-in screen or at mindrop.app. CAPTURE IT WHEREVER YOU ARE β€’ Type a drop on the board, or tap a Home Screen widget. β€’ Forward an email or send a text to MinDrop and it lands on your board. β€’ Share a link, photo or file from any app through the share sheet. β€’ Set the Action Button to Tell Mia, hold it, and say what you need. NOTES, LISTS AND REMINDERS Every drop is one of three things. A note keeps a thought. A list has checkboxes and is done when every box is ticked. A reminder has a time, can repeat, and notifies you when it's due. Color tags, pins and search keep the board tidy, and reminders sync both ways with Apple Reminders. TODAY Today puts your reminders and your calendar events on one timeline, so you can see the whole day at a glance. WIDGETS, LIVE ACTIVITIES AND APPLE WATCH Widgets keep your next reminders on the Home Screen and Lock Screen. When a reminder is coming up, a Live Activity shows it on the Lock Screen. On Apple Watch you can record a meeting with MeetDrop right from your wrist. EARLY ACCESS: MIA AND MEETDROP Mia is an assistant for your board. Say or type "milk, eggs and bread, and remind me Friday at 6 to call Mom" and she makes the list and the reminder for you. MeetDrop takes notes in your meetings. Record on iPhone or Apple Watch and you get a summary, decisions and suggested tasks you can add to your board. The audio is deleted once the transcript is ready. During early access we turn these on per account, at no charge. TWO ACCOUNTS Keep work and personal apart. Add a second account and switch between them from your profile picture. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your drops are encrypted for your account. There are no ads and no tracking, and we don't sell your data. You can lock the app with Face ID and delete your account from Settings at any time. Questions or ideas: support@mindrop.app
