Comment summary: TickTick receives mixed reviews. Users appreciate its ease of use, clean interface, and feature-rich options such as Pomodoro timers and cross-platform support. Many find it a worthy alternative to apps like Todoist and Wunderlist. However, privacy concerns due to its Chinese domain registration and lack of transparency are major drawbacks. Users also note glitches and limitations in the free version. Despite these issues, TickTick is favored by some for its intuitive design and task management capabilities.

I am using it on the web and Windows with the free plan. I found the following points to be good.

  • The layout is easy to read with tasks in the middle and details on the right.
  • There are paid features such as calendar view and work periods, but I can use the free features without any major complaints.

The following points are negative.

  • There is a paid plan, but it is expensive considering only the functions necessary for me. However, this is not a problem only with this tool.
  • Google Calendar integration is one-way only, and changes to task contents are not immediately reflected.

  • TickTick has built-in lists like Today, Inbox, and Calendar, but it can hide them under Settings – Smart List.
  • It features a Pomodoro timer which it can hide under TickTick – Preferences... – Pomo – Pomo Timer – Enable Pomo Timer.

The free version of TickTick supports tags, printing, and sub-tasks.

When I check off a repeating task, TickTick immediately creates the next occurrence of the task. This causes the to-do list to contain incomplete tasks for the future that I have already completed for the present. I would like to hide future occurrences of repeating tasks that I have already completed today [0] [1].

TickTick deleted the two forum threads that I referenced in my previous review. I searched for them in Wayback Machine, but I did not get any results.

TickTick (for web browser) does not have a Select All menu item. Also, the keyboard shortcut Command-A does not select all. Reminders by Apple and Things by Cultured Code both have a menu item Edit – Select All.

TickTick (for Mac) has a menu item Edit – Select All. This will select all of the text in the name of a task. But it won't select all of the tasks in a list.

When I select multiple tasks and press the Delete key, TickTick (for Mac) does not delete the tasks. Instead, I clicked the Delete button in the rightmost pane.

When I delete a task, a toast appears at the bottom of the window. It offers a button to undo deleting the task. But the Edit – Undo menu item is disabled.

Wirecutter recommends TickTick as "The best free to-do list app" in their guide "The Best To-Do List App."

Pros:

  • The free version is pretty good too, if you don't need a calendar.
  • Basic note-taking is possible but not much more than that.
  • A dedicated notes feature. The mobile app is good.

Cons:

  • The layout is ugly.
  • It can be quite overwhelming!
  • Akiflow is way better for a good calendar + task manager.

I thought it was a standalone application. So I downloaded it and installed it on Debian, and after starting the programme I was asked to register an account. What's the point? No, thanks.

It's way better for me than Todoist. Super easy to use, intuitive, works smoothly on any device, and has tons of integrations.

Easy to use and cross platform. The features are great for task tracking and it has great note taking abilities as well.

TickTick by Appest is fast and supports Markdown, templates, tags on notes, themes, saving as an image, lots of integrations, and tasks - no kidding!
