Features

Everything a to-do list needs, nothing it does not

Small on purpose. Each feature exists because it helps you finish things.

Nested tasks

Break big work into subtasks, as deep as you need.

Flag what matters

Mark the few important tasks so they stand out from the rest of the list.

Habits that repeat

Once, daily, weekly and more, with a history of every repetition.

Built-in work timer

Activate a task to start the clock. Every active period goes into a worklog.

Estimates in points

Size each task in points, your own unit of effort. Compare with the time you actually tracked to calibrate.

Drag-drop ordering

Put tasks in the order you will do them. Move subtasks between parents.

Works in any browser

Nothing to install. Open it on your laptop or phone and pick up where you left off.

Passwordless login

FAQ

Questions

Is TomTodo free?

Yes. TomTodo is free to use. There is no paid tier and no trial that runs out.

Do I need a password?

No. Enter your email address and we send you a 6-digit code. Type the code in and you are signed in. Each code works once and expires after 10 minutes.

What is the difference between a task and a habit?

A task is done once. A habit is a task that repeats on a schedule, such as daily or weekly. When you complete a habit, TomTodo records it in its repetition history and brings it back for the next period.

How does the work timer work?

Activate a task when you start on it and deactivate it when you stop. Each active period is saved, so you get a worklog of where your time went, which you can compare with your estimates.

Why are estimates in points, not hours?

Points are your own unit of effort: 1, 2, 3, 5 or 8, or a custom value. They deliberately don’t convert to minutes, because a point means something different to everyone. You might treat one point as roughly an hour of focused work, for example. The work timer measures actual time separately, so you can compare the two and calibrate your estimates.

What data do you keep?

Your email address and your tasks. Nothing else. There are no tracking or analytics cookies on this site. Details are in the privacy policy.
