The most fun Todo list surely has to be Dunnit! It comes with OpenFeint integrated so you score points as you use the app (a little like XP in WoW). There are also a load of achievements to collect. Certainly adds a new level to Todo lists. It's not all gimmicky though, the interface is really polished and there are some really handy features for importing multiple items.

You may have tried and found many todo apps on the App Store either too simple to be useful or too long-winded where it takes years to add tasks and appointments. You don't want your to-do app to actually take away your time that could have been spent actually getting things done. Try Todew - a task management app that won't waste your time!

The most fun To Do List app for iPhone and iPod Touch is now free. I have been using Skratch List, but now they have made Free List availabe, which is the same thing, except it's free.

In reply to Ivan. OTA sync is coming soon according to the developers of Things. Also, you do not need to connect your iPhone to a PC to sync. Wireless sync works very quickly and flawlessly when iPhone and Mac are on the same WiFi network.

Things is great. However, there is no way to sync things desktop with iphone version over the interent. Connecting the iphone every single time you need to sync a task is annoying. If they can create a way to sync over the air, than things would be #1 choice.

In reply to Tim.

Hi Tim. My opinion has changed – now that we have lots of lovely native apps via the App Store. My current, and long-time, favorite – which I am way overdue on reviewing and will review soon – is Things by Cultured Code.

Patrick, has your opinion changed in the last 2 years? Still think that Toodledo is the best overall app for time management/ to do lists?

Thanks for the post! I using the Toodledo too… But I found that I really don't need too much function for simple task remind. So I tested a to-do type app named TaskCard, it is really cool and I love the design. It is different to normal ToDo list, I can say it is a simple/quick ToDo list.

In reply to André. I wrote this post almost two years ago, so all of these were web apps at the time. By now, most good tasks apps should be able to display the badge with number of overdue or not yet completed tasks.

Which One offers a Number visible like calls or mails? I would like to see directly how many tasks I stil have open.

In reply to Roby D.. I gave Reqall a look sometime ago - could never quite get to like its interface enough to use it much. Also, I couldn't quite get to grips with the voice call method for this sort of thing. Others may find it perfect for their needs.

Check out ReQall on the iPhone apps. I got it and it is very nice and easy to use. The free version has voice tasks that translate to written tasks, syncs with outlook tasks and calendar, recognizes words like meet or buy and puts them in the to-do or to-buy list respectively, notifications (if you want) via email, IM, or SMS, automatically records voice when it senses you move the phone to your head, and a host of other things. Looks sweet too.

In reply to JohanW. Thanks for sharing - that certainly looks a very different approach.

A new To Do app has just appeared on the store, its called What Do I Need To-Do. Looks interesting... Check it out at http://www.keaneandable.com/iphone/

James – had not seen that one before – just took a quick look. Looks interesting, but I need an app that sync with something on desktop / online. Is it your app by chance?

Have you looked at a todo list app for the iPhone called Skratch List. Ya, it's a funny name, but it was actually the closest to what I needed. I also like its little fun factor because you can shake and flick the unit to delete and add items.

Check it out at http://www.skratchboard.com/skratchlist/

[…] know there are plenty of todo applications you can get but I still didn’t set my mind into it and it is not easy to schedule it without a todo […]

Another app to check out is skwink.com, which is a simple todo list and note manager. (http://www.skwink.com).

I have been using it and am pretty happy with it, the UI needs some work, but the developer said that a new UI is coming.
