1. [R7] 5/5 · US Love this app: Fabulous task manager. Allows for categories and subcategories, repeating, custom due dates, detailed notes. Priority and timing alerts. Sorts logically. Allows manual sort. Lots of shortcuts if that’s your thing. I use it to manage work tasks (over 1000 repeating annually) and it keeps me on track, sorted and focused on the priorities. I tried To Do once my org moved to that. Not
2. [R11] 5/5 · US 10/10!: I have been looking for a planning app for what feels like ages. None of them had everything I needed until now. I’ve been using this app for about a month and it’s been game changing. It’s customizable, but not overwhelming. I am a full time student and full time office manager. This app has helped me organize school work, plan todos, track habits, set timers for studying, plan for my hob
3. [R15] 5/5 · US So feature rich: And easy to nav. I’m still getting used to it but I plan to keep my subscription after the trial. I guess that’s the ultimate test of an app, right?
4. [R20] 5/5 · US Great App: I literally use TickTick for everything, highly recommend. Very customizable.
5. [R29] 5/5 · US An amazing app for someone with ADHD!: Helps keep my to-do list, task, and ALL of my calendars in one place so I can effectively manage my time! With this app I can see everything at once as well as its importance! The notifications and reminders keep me on track! So happy I found this app! ❤️
6. [R31] 4/5 · US Great app, a few features could be added: This app is incredible for ADHDers who need to switch up their task view and break tasks down. You can even choose a sound for when you complete a task, and there’s a GREAT stats section that’s not just based on how many things you’ve done, but how efficiently you’ve done them, which makes it waaaay more rewarding to level up. Quite a few features I’d li
7. [R54] 5/5 · US If you have adhd, you need this app!: I would forget EVERYTHING if it weren’t for this app! I have the widget on my home screen and it keeps me so organized. If you’re in school, you can create different folders for your assignments, and the satisfaction of checking something off the list is everything!
8. [R6] 5/5 · US Great time management tool: Great product to keep you on track and focused on the task at hand, and to monitor non-priority tasks. That function alone is worth it. The bonus is the focus and built-in timer to track your focus time on a task. I would highly recommend this app to anyone looking for time-management tools.
9. [R39] 5/5 · US I like it: It’s a little bit better than the iOS reminders app even without the premium because you have more options to use like habits and Eisenhower matrix
10. [R48] 5/5 · US MY FAVORITE APP EVER: This app is amazing! I’ve been using it for a few years after attempts with to-doist, calendar apps, and good old paper and pen! This app just sticks to you like glue. It has everything you could think of and mind you after the first few months I did pay for the subscription, here’s why: - the background ambient music (particularly deep sea) became the only thing that provide
11. [R49] 5/5 · US What a relief!: I’ve been looking for a good app to keep track of my tasks ever since the paper days of the Franklin Planner. I can’t count how many I’ve tried - the last being MS ToDo app. I’ve used this app for the past couple of years and absolutely love it. I changed the Eisenhower matrix from High, Med, Low to 80, work projects, church, and personal (my 80 bucket combines all the others into
12. [R21] 5/5 · US TickTick better than Todoist (for me)!: 1. Better repeating task options 2. Better Calendar Views & Integrations 3. Ability to link tasks to each more easily 4. Ability to integrate with Notion more easily 5. Todoist has a nicer UI, is slightly less buggy, and has a slightly nicer quick entry option for tasks 6. But in general, just a lot more little nice power features that make it subst
13. [R23] 5/5 · US Great organization tool: This is exactly what I need. Super streamlined design. Ability to sort multiple lists by any variables i want, categories, priorities, due dates, etc. this tool is perfect!! Can’t wait to see how they keep improving it. Ive noticed small improvements over my time using it. Ability to link to a google calendar would be awesome, bc google tasks sucks by comparison and it wou
14. [R40] 5/5 · US Wish I did this sooner: I wish I had switched from Apple reminders to this sooner! I’ve used Notion, and reminders before and this is a much better system for managing tasks. I love the time blocking feature- being able to drag tasks over to a calendar is wicked cool! This works how my brain works and I’m truly grateful for Tick Tick!
15. [R47] 5/5 · US ♥️ Love this App - Helps with ADHD. (Some Suggestions): Feedback: - Please add the ability to save different filters for views on the calendar & Eisenhower, rather than having to manually switch - Please make it so we can have multiple Eisenhower Matrices Honestly love this app. Syncs with my Google tasks and calendar. I was able to do a two way sync with tasks by using Zapier. It allows me to co
16. [R45] 5/5 · US Really helpfu: This is a really helpful app. I’ve tried other planner-like apps but this one is the only one that has worked well for me. Does everything I need it to do. No issues, really. Nice themes and widgets as well
17. [R13] 5/5 · US Great Things Alternative: Things but works on Windows too. I can’t believe how dumb the developers of an app have to be to lock you into one ecosystem. I love Apple products but sometimes I can’t choose what ecosystem my employer uses…
18. [R4] 1/5 · US Tried both laptop and iphone: All i wanted was a calendar that offers check marks . Unfortunately upon downloading there are still no check marks , i guess until you pay yearly ? I downloaded on my laptop it wouldn't even display my calendar at all. Someone else's calendar and all grayed out. I'm not a freebie seeker but you don't show to me that your app works . Like if you would show me for 1 ho
19. [R109] 1/5 · US Every useful feature behind a paywall: Just when I thought I found the perfect app for social media planning….literally every useful feature is behind a paywall. Without the annual subscription you’re better off just using your notes app
20. [R170] 3/5 · US Paywall is annoying: I think the app works fine enough, but it can be really frustrating to have so many basic features be locked behind a paywall. If the free version purely limited max lists and attachments, it’d be fine, but the fact that it limits the duration of events is kind of absurd. I’m sure you can find apps that offer the same features with no paywall required.
21. [R212] 1/5 · US So stupid: App is free but we HAVE to pay to actually use it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ false advertising
22. [R43] 4/5 · US Great app!: Great app but it crashes too often, especially when creating a new task. Can that be fixed?
23. [R85] 1/5 · US Doesn’t work: Spent all day trying to get it to work, done and moving on. Developers have some serious issues to address!
24. [R92] 1/5 · US Widget broken after new update: The home screen widget no longer works which was my whole time with this app
25. [R97] 2/5 · US This app horrible: There’s a difference between nagging and outright obnoxious. This app is the later. I would not mind if snoozing a task on one device actually synced in a reasonable time on other devices, but it doesn’t. I’ve walked into a separate where my iPad is and the alert is still going 5-10 minutes after it was snoozed on my iPhone. Yes, they are on the same network. Rescheduling tasks
26. [R686] 3/5 · CA Pressuring users to sign up for an annual subscription: I’ve heard great things about this app, and I recently created an account. It has diverse features and a nice UI, so I’m looking forward to seeing how well I can get it to fit in with my workflow. However, during the onboarding/registration process the app prompts users to purchase an annual subscription, with no option to select a monthly te
27. [R815] 3/5 · AU Constant advertising: Works fine as a cross platform todo list, but on mobile I’m harassed by full screen “SUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM” ads every time I open it. Newsflash folks; that doesn’t make me want to give you any money.
28. [R208] 1/5 · US Constant Prompts to Enable Notifications: I pay for premium stop promoting me all the time with pop ups for what you want me to do!
29. [R215] 1/5 · US Sneaky Advertising: I love TickTick and use it all the time to keep track of my ToDo items. However, today I got a warning that my account was being downgraded and that I needed to renew my premium subscription or else lose my data. This was nothing more than an advertisement in disguise of a scare tactic. Absolutely disgusting hence my one star review.
30. [R2] 1/5 · US Sloppy for overnight workers.: Doesn’t properly add overnight events to the calendar..:treats them as another event past midnight which clutters the calendar and makes you look busier than you actually are. A major critical flaw and won’t be subbing because of that. Good thing a trial was offered.
31. [R58] 2/5 · US Missing key feature: Great app potential, but you must rely on third party apps or native calendar app to create an event. If you try to create an event in this app, it becomes a reminder, so it does not transfer to other calendars as an event. I asked the developers in-app for an explanation for why I cannot schedule an event in a *calendar* app and they said they’d consider that feature in the f
32. [R89] 3/5 · US Still lacks a due date: Pretty nice, comprehensive, and smooth UX. But you can’t set a due date for a task. You can set a start date but that is not at all the same thing. Amazing how many todo apps do t have that feature. Also, projects are just folders and can’t contain any information describing them, they’re just a list of tasks. I don’t need a project manager but it would be nice to save t
33. [R233] 2/5 · US Warning this not a calendar app, it’s a calendar viewer.: Please add an option to either create a task or an event. I love this app, but it boggles my mind that you cannot create an event like every other Calendar app.
34. [R34] 1/5 · US bad: i love the app and its features but when i had gotten a free prescription it canceled a week later as planned. I haven’t been getting notifications from the app and I haven’t really been minding because I didn’t really think the app suits Me, but it’s been a few weeks since I had gotten my free subscription and two days ago I had barely noticed that they charged me for the yearly plan, which
35. [R315] 1/5 · GB Scam: Starts a premium subscription without your permission, took me a few months to clock it.
36. [R353] 1/5 · GB Subscription renewal cheats: Subscription does not appear in Apple list of subscribed apps but it renews without warning. Very dirty tactics.
37. [R475] 1/5 · GB Getting Charged after cancelling subscription: Very unhappy, have been charged when cancelled within the trial period as I wanted to see how the app measured up against Todoist. Watch out for charging during the trial period they have two apps, by mistake I down loaded a different named Tick Tick App onto my I Pad and got charged 12 months as had already downloaded the App onto my IPhone ….. try
38. [R3] 2/5 · US Not smooth: Interface is just way too much. Needs to be streamlined massively. Better apps are just like your calendar with two buttons on the side. That's it. Ticktick has like ten pages of shi
39. [R75] 1/5 · US Bloated apps: I would not recommend, bloated operations. I just want to add my lists and organize. I don’t want a tool that consumes too much management time. An easy drag in other apps requires too many clicks
40. [R138] 2/5 · US Stop messing with appearance: The new default smallest font size is too big - please add a way for us to make it smaller like it used to be. Half of my list names or tasks are now cutoff when they weren’t before.
41. [R448] 3/5 · GB Blank widget after latest update: As title says, widgets are all now blank after the latest update. Apart from that it’s a decent app, if perhaps a little cluttered.
42. [R244] 1/5 · US Support never answers: Good luck getting an answer from support despite asking for a simple solution
43. [R336] 1/5 · GB Can’t delete my account: This is the most annoying thing about an app you read the reviews get all hyped up about to go download register with them to actual use the app, then realise it has no absolute use to me at all and when it comes to delete my data and information to uninstall the app the deletion process has an error 🙄typical behaviour of a hyped up app that actually has no use for a neuro
44. [R521] 1/5 · CA Won’t Delete: Has a ridiculous process for deleting account but even then it says invalid and won’t delete. Not being able to delete your data from an app is actually illegal in Canada.
45. [R348] 2/5 · GB Watch problem: I started a subscription because it says it worked on the Apple Watch. Certainly on my watch running iOS26 nothing transfers from the iphone to the watch other than the list titles. So it is useless for me as I often leave my phone at home when I go out and I rely on my watch for all my information.
46. [R453] 2/5 · GB very well conceived and feature full: I would defintely love to contribute to support this app. I can't commit to over £35+ a year. However, I would happily pay £5 per year for the same features as the free version, maybe with one unlocked feature to attract people vs the free version. Update - the iPad version doesn't sync and makes it impossible to delete tasks.
47. [R529] 2/5 · CA Faulty reminders and incomplete mac version: Great app, but i have recurrent events that are not alerting me when they should. The mac version also seems problematic with recurring events (e.g when only intending to change one specific recurring events date it would change everything)
48. [R5] 5/5 · US Best App: Best App to keep reminders for
49. [R8] 5/5 · US Helps organize every aspect of my life: I use this app for personal, work, and school. I love the ability to rank importance and schedule a time for tasks.
50. [R24] 5/5 · US Goof for me: Easy to use for me
51. [R380] 2/5 · GB glitchy widgets: it was a great app and i’ve been using it for several years but recently the widgets are glitching. the main reason i chose this app was to display my list on my home screen but now this no longer works
